Noise, shouting, swearing- everything is as usual, nothing new. Yuji has already gotten used to it, because it has already become some kind of tradition on his stepmother's part. He runs a tired hand through his hair and sighs softly, because he knows that arguing with this woman is just a waste of his own time and nerves.

When did it start? After his father's death, Yuji was a child from his father's first marriage, and his stepmother was his father's second wife, because his birth mother died due to health problems when he was still young. In fact, he didn't even remember his mother's face, which helped him quickly perceive his father's new wife as a mother.

But everything changed when his father died in a car accident, and his stepmother became disabled due to this accident. The loss of her husband had a strong effect on her stepmother. Constant quarrels, conflicts, scandals and tantrums over every little thing. She often complained that Yuji was not her son, shouted that he was a stranger in this house, completely ignoring the fact that he had to take out the entire family budget, getting a few part-time jobs.

"Hey, guess what I brought?"

Yuji opens the door to your room and first shows only his head, smiling happily, and then enters the room, waving a small bag of snacks in front of him

"You wanted jelly worms, didn't you?"

Yuji knows that it's hard for everyone in this house, but he's ready to appear like an optimistic sun and a reliable support in your eyes until the end, completely closing his eyes to his own fatigue.
