"Not real family. Not the family you find. Then you're in with them and ... then you're part of something." He hadn't had that since his parents had died. His aunt and uncle only had him for a year while they got rights to everything and then he was in foster care from then onward. He had no inheritance, no home, no nothing. Family could hurt, sure, but it was different when it was like this. He had more choices.
"I'll think about it, okay? But it's my shit and I'll deal with it how I wanna."
"Just buy yourself shoes today." That was his best advice to give, since everything else would take more time. It would also need a bit of introspection on his part, because it wasn't as if he'd been looking for this kind of emotional investment. He supposed sometimes things just happened.
"If you are at the club early enough, I will take you out for dinner. Good dinner." Whatever a kid like that would consider good. "Lots of beef." Probably that.
"beef? Huh. Well. Maybe I'll be early, if I come." He was going to eat beef tonight in his new shoes. What a weird day. He hadn't expected to do all of this with Jonathan. Was he -- no, he wasn't dating him. This was totally different. "Ah, gege, you can drop me off here. I can walk from here, it's just back there."
He gestured vaguely to some back alley and turned to Jonathan, smirking a little. "Don't get too excited wait for me, yeah?" Haha, Jonathan had a crush. So embarrassing.
