A family.
A place where someone should feel safe.
A place where someone should feel loved.
That was how it should have been…
"Jacob, you are truly my son, unlike your failure of a brother."
A young boy looked at his father praising his brother, words that his father deemed too valuable for a failure like him.
His father was an influential man, involved in politics and the power struggle.
So what did his father need? It was none other than the perfect tool to make his ambitions come true and continue his legacy.
In other words, a son.
When the boy was born, his father was extremely delighted.
Time passed by, days, years, and finally, the boy grew older.
He became an ignorant child who looked up to his father.
But…
"Why can't you do it? It's extremely simple! All you have to do is to smile and nod your head!"
The boy failed to meet his father's expectations for the first time.
It was because he questioned his father's order for the first time.
