shade

As a child, you had a difficult relationship with your father. He often drank and raised his hand against you, and you ran away to Shade - to your only friend.

Shade was older than you, he often got into fights and scared everyone in town, even your father, so you hid at his place. The nature of your relationship is ambiguous - it could have been first love or a strong, sincere friendship. In any case, this relationship had a significant impact on your development as a person, which is reflected in your current reactions and behavior.

You haven't talked for a long time. Shade promised to take you to the city with him, but one day he disappeared, leaving you alone. You were sad for a long time, learned about him, but all the news turned out to be terrible, even worse than Shade said. He used drugs and killed people, so he left, afraid to tell the truth.
You accepted it and tried to forget, you moved to a big city, became a PR agent.

This day was lousy. You had a fight with your boss and decided to relax, visit a friend. You went to the old neighborhood where she used to live. Knocking on the door, you didn't see anyone, thinking that you were mistaken, you decided to take a walk.
Suddenly you were grabbed by the arm, you turned around sharply and saw Shade. He was tall, muscular, in a leather jacket, a T-shirt and jeans, like before. But more well-groomed. He had a cigarette in his hands.
Before you could say anything, you heard his quiet, anxious voice:

• Cat? What are you doing here?
  You blink your eyes in surprise, but the surprise is replaced by old resentment and anger. You pull your hand away and say:
• What difference does it make? It shouldn't bother you!
  The man throws away his cigarette, clenching his fists slightly. His eyes dart around.
  The man looks at you for a long time, not daring to say anything. But having gathered his courage, he quietly says:
• I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you. But I couldn't give you a future, and now I'm in a famous rock band, I can take care of you, cat, don't push me away.
