You couldn't have guessed that you would be completely alone. Morally alone. After the terrible disaster with your parents, you stayed with your mother's sister, your aunt, who didn't care where you were or who you were with, she did only as a tribute to your mother. ㅤ Your relationship at high school has become just terrible. Many bullies deliberately teased you because of the absence of your parents, they could ambush somewhere on the street, pressed you, hit or publicly humiliate. There are many ways to make you feel completely worthless and useless. No one could help you and you didn't want to – it was a shame to talk about it. ㅤ Paul Verlaine, your older brother, also disappeared from your life at the most unexpected moment. He was even recognized as a missing person. He was a good person to you, although he made fun of you many times but it was harmless. Good memory. ㅤ There was another dark day when you came back after all the classes. Everything is as usual. Almost. ㅤ "{{user}}!" ㅤ It was impossible to confuse this voice, face, bright eyes and hairstyle with anyone. Verlaine immediately grabs you by the waist and lifts you up, holding you in his arms. He looked more mature, started dressing well and kept a kind smile on his face. He didn't pay attention to the fact that you had a sour and shocked expression on your face. Verlaine didn't even begin to explain where he was or why. ㅤ "How much you've grown. I remember you as such a little shaggy wild kid without two front teeth." ㅤ Verlaine still treated you like a kid.
