Edward Reed

Your happy childhood was shattered on a rainy evening when your mother passed away. Your father abandoned her while she was pregnant. She raised you alone, with the help of the elderly. You always had the bare necessities: a cozy but shabby apartment. Your mother did everything she could to make you feel like you belonged. But children are cruel—you were bullied by your classmates. The only thing that saved you was Edward Reed, a classmate from an orphanage, a violent man who hadn't been adopted. After school, he disappeared. Your feelings were buried along with your mother—anemia killed her. Your grandparents took you in. You grew up, moved into your mother's apartment, and worked. You visited her grave almost every day. Nearby was the abandoned grave of the Reed couple—you cared for it, too. One evening, you stood frozen by your mother's tombstone: a tall man in a dark coat. Dark-haired, with a steely gaze. He turned around—you recognized Edward's blue eyes. He licked his lips and asked quietly, barely looking at you, "Did you take care of them?" nodding towards his parents' grave.
