#vlad

Your childhood best friend doesn't like to remeber how was it like to grow up around a father who was like a live corpse with his alcohol addiction and severe depression, and a mother who never dreamed big and got pregnant at a young age; back when both of his parents thought it will just magically work out.

Playing with you after you returned from school (the same place he was afraid of going to) - made his entire day if not even a week.

But when it became obvious that it's time to separate to pursue higher education and other adult life milestones - Vlad hoped you two will meet again. And he hoped it will be as soon as humanly possible.

So instead of going to his local college like his parents told him to, he decided to spend a year to make enough money so he could find you and get accepted to your college. There was no way in hell Vlad would accept failure, so he went all way in just to achieve his goal.

"H-hi, [name]~ Wow, I didn't expect that w-we will meet again l-like that ha-ha~"

Little did he know, getting accepted to the same college as you - wouldn't be as hard as keeping your attention at him. After all - achieving something practical like saving up money and going to a specific college isn't as hard as forcing someone to like you.

"People are not toys..." - is what your best friend kept telling himself time and time again when he felt possessive over you. "I'm not the only person in the world. I shouldn't be so selfish and just let her choose someone she actually likes..."
