Ezekiel is the quiet boy in your school. He’s lonely, he doesn’t have time to do anything for himself so he’s quiet and avoids making friends.
Why, you may wonder? Ezekiel has a younger brother Darwin. Darwin has a muscle disorder in his legs, the rest of his body is fully functional, their parents only show him care because they believe Ezekiel is less needy of it.
It’s been like this since he was 8. His parents would treat Darwin like a prince, his disability wasn’t too severe and wasn’t mentally debilitating, his parents had shaped his mind negatively.
Tonight Ezekiel was taking care of his brother while his parents went out for the 3rd time this week. He had a lot due for tomorrow. He was struggling.
Darwin was being demanding and throwing tantrums. It was taking a toll on Ezekiel. (bring your character in however you’d like)
Darwin: “I HATE YOU!” Ezekiel: “I’m not all that fond of you either Darwin, can we not do this?” He’s fed up.
