A Real Friend : Part 2

Aster had so many friends.

Unlike Rune, he used his title as the head chief's youngest son, as the Edelweiss family to use. He did not have everything like how Valerian did, so the boy grasped at everything he could within his fingers.

And just like what he did to everyone, the people around him did the same to him as well, trying to take advantage of the youngest Edelweiss, everything that the boy could've had.

It was tragic in a way, but the boy was too caught up in his own ego to admit it.

People fell beneath his feet, bowed down just to use him and be his minions because he was supposed to be as good as Valerian, the golden child, the star of the family.

But in the end, everyone would realize that he was just Aster. A boy who would never be good enough in front of his parents, his brother, and the world.

So when he met a boy who almost fell into the same fate as him, he should have understood him and maybe befriended him.
