You could say hes trash if he used the MC for his own benefits but in this case he was just another guy weighted by his family. He was just as unlucky as the MC because of this sexuality, and he knew that, thats why he left. He knew his brother would be a bette choice for the MC duh. So if you're not gonna understand his circumstance then say no more. He was just another one of those eloped lovers thing, tho I can not say he's guilt-free for not saying anything to the MC.
YOU GO BOY ROCK YO BRO ASS
