"You came alone? Where are Tom and Hank?" Alex curiously asked as he did not see them tagging along. For the past years, every single day without fail, around this time, Tom, Hank, and Anna would visit Alex together and chat with him. Tom and Hank were 1 year older than him. Hank and Anna were siblings and their parents were friends and teammates of his Uncle and Aunt for hunting. Tom was a single child of his mother who worked as a prostitute in a pleasure house beside the bar in the market area.
