It's been a couple years since Matthew has been reported missing. Nobody claims to know why, he just left. Just like that. And that's where Alfred enters the story.

It's been a harsh blow for him. He blames himself for everything. But of course, he's the only one who got into an argument with him three days before the incident. He hid the fact that he didn't just leave.

He left for good... 

Flashback:

"Why...?" Matthew croaked. He's trying his best to stop his sobs from coming out.

"Dude..." Alfred sighed. "have to do this, it's the only way!" He pleaded.

"No." Matt's voice became stern. "Alfred, this job can kill you!"

"But we have nothing else to do!" Alfred boomed. "Do you want both of us to die?!" He clenched his fist out of anger.

"would rather have both of us to strive together. WILL NOT LET THIS PERSON HARM YOU!" He growled, making his brother jump and flinch.

Alfred has never seen his older brother this pissed off. He has never raised his voice before. "just want the best for us..." Alfred looked down.

"SELLING DRUGS DOES NOT HELP OUR SITUATION, ALFRED!" Matthew cries, his hands clenched tightly and his eyes full of worry.

"But, Ivan... He won't let things go wrong..." Alfred mustered up the courage to look at his brother'pained gaze.

"Anything could go wrong!" Matthew raised his hand. Alfred shut his eyes tightly awaiting the blow.

But none came.

Alfred, instead, felt warm embrace enveloped him. "just don't anything to happen to you..." Matthew whispered.
