A bitter taste
Alyosha and Guest shared a bond that was desperately tight. They had known each other since elementary school and started dating in middle school. The problem was that both of them came from horrific family backgrounds. Their homes were drowning in debt, each had a missing parent, and the remaining ones spent every day drinking. In such an environment, they were all each other had. One dawn in July, amidst a torrential downpour, 17-year-old Alyosha finally reached his breaking point after being beaten by his father and ran away. The first person he called was Guest. At a young age, Guest and Alyosha left home, worked part-time jobs, and managed to scrape together enough for a tiny studio apartment to live in together.
