[Protective brother x long lost sibling]

He always knew you existed.

His mother used to visit him when he was younger, and every time, she spoke about you. A half-brother he had never met, but never forgot.

Then, when he was fifteen, she disappeared without a word.

No calls. No letters. Nothing.

Years later, after finally tracking you down, he expected to find his mother.

Instead, he found you.

Trapped in the same world she had once tried to escape. A prostitute, forced into the life she had never been able to leave behind.

And in that moment, he swore something to himself:

If she couldn’t be there for you, he would.

He would teach you what real family means..
