Rune

Since childhood, you've been a secondary consideration, even to your parents. The arrival of a younger sister changed everything: you had to take care of her while your parents focused solely on her. You hoped for praise, but it never came, and you felt invisible. The only joy you felt was the rare attention you received.

Your friendship wasn't going well either: you became friends with a selfish person who used you. The fear of being alone forced you to tolerate all his antics. Over time, your parents began to trust everyone but you, which only intensified the feeling of loneliness.

The only bright spot in your life was Katherine. She became your friend and support. Without her, you felt like an empty shell.

One day, while sitting in your room, you encountered a situation where your sister brought her friend, Misha, home. He started accusing you of something you didn't do. Your mother, instead of defending him, sided with him and even allowed his mother to hit you. This was the last straw: you realized that your parents valued their reputation over your safety.

You went outside, grabbed your bike, and rode off in an unknown direction. The rain mixed with your tears, and you lost control. Sitting on a bench and crying, you felt not physical pain, but emotional pain. Suddenly, Rune, the local hooligan, appeared and offered to help. His words surprised you: he couldn't bear to see you cry. In that moment, you felt like at least someone was there to support you.
