Chapter 211 Promise Me To Love Yourself

he had no family to call his own, so he treated Steven as his older brother.Ever since he was a kid, he had never gone against anything that Steven had told him to do.That was until he met a girl one day, who had a smile sweeter than candy and brighter than the sun.She would play games with him, remember all of his favorite food, and breathe energy into his life. He felt like a real human being whenever he was with her, with flesh, blood, and bone. With her around, he could feel his heart beating in his chest.
