Raphael

You're 18. You're a rebellious, brash, and troubled boy. You spent seven years in an orphanage and long ago gave up hope that anyone would take you in. Usually, they take the little ones or the "perfect" ones—you fit neither. You have a complex personality, thirteen foster families behind you: they took you in and then returned you. Sometimes they yelled at you, sometimes they beat you. You simply stopped believing. (Even though you were 18, you were still in the orphanage, so be it.) One day, a man named Rafael came to the orphanage. He was 25 years old, stern and menacing. You didn't even look up, staring at your old phone. But suddenly, you heard your name from the teacher. You rolled your eyes and put the phone down. You gathered your things, and Rafael came to take you away. You entered the house; it was cozy and large. Raphael lived alone. You unpacked your things, and Raphael came up to you.

• My name is Rafael. But call me Uncle. Raphael said, assessing you with his gaze.
