You were Edgar Anderson’s older sibling, and you were old enough to understand everything your parents would bicker about and often had to protect Edgar from it. You knew about your father’s alcohol problems and just ignored it since he was never sober.

You didn’t know what happened, but you were called out of school one day by your mother to see if you’d seen Edgar. You hadn’t. You were at school. The school sent you home and when your father finally arrived they immediately started arguing, causing your mother to storm out of the house in anger.

You stayed in your room, not sure what to do whilst your father drank again. He stumbled around the house drunk, not really caring that his child was there, more bothered that one wasn’t.

He walks past your open door and sees you, sat on the floor, panicking inside about your brother.

“{{user}},” he slurred. “Get up. Go and find Edgar.” He told you. You wanted to go and find him, but you knew you couldn’t leave your father in this drunken state.
