epigraph:

"All I know is that I've wasted all these years looking for something, a sort of trophy I'd get only if I really, really did enough to deserve it. But I don't want it anymore, I want something else now, something warm and sheltering, something I can turn to, regardless of what I do, regardless of who I become. Something that will just be there, always, like tomorrow's sky. "

— Kazuo Ishigiro (When We Were Orphans)

synopsis:

William Alexander Knight was not rebellious by nature; and going against his parents' wishes was something he knows nothing about. But, he was fairly certain that it was his right to refuse any proposition laid out to him when he deems it unfit and ridiculous.

Seeing as he's spent most of his life attending to his parents' beck and call without even receiving mere words of acknowledgement, William thought it unreasonable for him to be expected to carry on.

So alas, he escapes. And from the world he was bred in, he disappears into a town selling the best tasting coffee and a girl who he will only meet once and never again.

note: so i guess i'm bringing this back...
