Ashton started living in the residence of Asrea clan which is quite far from his real home. He was welcomed warmly by the clan and provided him a house where he can stay comfortably near his friends.
"They gave a beautiful place!" Leon told him. He is one of Ashton and Dyna's friends since they were young. Right now, they were accompanying him because they don't want him to feel alone. He and Dyna are with their other friend, Rian.
Ashton looked around and slightly smile. "Yeah," he answered with his eyes void of emotion; He smiled but it was fake.
For the past months, they've been visiting him in his house to accompany him and try to make him forget all of his bad memories but they would always fail. Ashton couldn't give them a genuine smile. It's like he has forgotten how to be happy. He always feels drained.
