Chapter 1

(Inspired by Asagao Academy, but does not take place in the same universe.)
Austin and Jared have been close friends since the fourth grade. Austin had always known that Jared had a rough life because of his mother's expectations and her strict ways, but he had never known that she went as far as to abuse him. It's not until one fateful day that Austin realizes what's going on when Jared faints in the hallways of the school due to a head wound. Now Austin is trying to do everything he can to help his friend to make up for when he didn't before.
