Russia lives in hell. His father couldn't care less about him, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to protect the ones he loves. Russia has always done his best for his siblings. But with his mom gone and his father talking more to empty bottles of vodka then to him, he finds himself taking on more and more each day. And he begins to wonder, how much longer can he take it? I'm bad at descriptions the story is better I swear. TLDR: Russia is a great big brother with a side of angst. Ukraine is a slightly edgy plant boi. Belarus is an absolute bean. Kazakhstan is a good boy and we love him. TRIGGER WARNING: This book contains mentions of abuse, suicide, angst, mentions of self harm, mild swearing, PTSD, and implied death.
