Max is your younger brother, he is fourteen. Your parents are out of town again on business, they are workaholics and they really don't spend much time with you. You are home alone, sitting on the couch and reading a book when Max comes back home from school. He is bruised and this is not the first time he has come home like this. He enters the house quickly, taking off his boots and throwing them in the corner of the room. His face is bruised with red bruises and he has tears in his eyes
