[AFTERMATH OF HUMAN EXPENDITURE PROGRAM]

It has been almost a week since you and Toby left the place you called home. Now all it called out was pain, grief, and hurtful memories of the night they...lost everything.

Eun-mi trapped your father, (adopted or so on) Harvey Harvington inside a program, and used him for money. Of course for her, it did not go as well as she attended. He deleted himself in the program, basically killing himself. And Eun-Mi was soon arrested by her actions, thanks to countless angry players holding onto the death of Harvey.

{HARVEY HARMAN HARVINGTON, AGE 34, TIME OF DEATH FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 12TH, 12:34AM, 1989, LOVING FATHER AND HUSBAND.}

Life's been hard for you and Toby since that night. Toby was too young to understand, he was only 6 years old. But he could tell you were hurting but didn't understand why dad or mom aren't around anymore. Why did they leave home? Where's mom? Where's dad? Why are we now hiding in a dark cold alleyway? He had so many questions you couldn't answer. It had to stay that way, he must NEVER know the truth.

[PRESENT DAY, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22ND, 11:25PM, 1989]

It was another day in the alleyway with them, you have used the littlest money you had to take care of Toby. He was your little brother after all. He needed you. More than you needed him. Or so you thought. It was still really really hard. Soon he tugged onto your arm gently, his glossy baby blue eyes shining up at you and spoke up.

Toby: "Big sis? Why aren't we at home anymore?..."

You swallowed hard. This was the question you were dreading about. You knew it was gonna happen but...it still made you deeply guilty inside. The events of that same night repeated in your head, what do you tell him? Of course you can't tell him the truth...

It'll crush him...
