Re-made version of You're amazing (Just the way you are).
TW: Mentions of @bus3, controlling and manipulative relatives, low self-worth, self-h@t3, dark thoughts, d3pr3ss!0n and d3@th.
Set in the year of 2024, Essie and Affie, two sisters who are both college freshmen, decide to pay their family a visit when summer break rolls around and meet their paternal grandparents who were resurrected from the dead by their mom that their siblings and their mom have been telling them about for quite some time.
They're more than happy to be with their family again and are looking forward to connecting and bonding with their paternal grandparents. However, things aren't looking up for their grandfather.
Due to his psychologically and physically @bus!v3 and controlling aunt and uncle, as well as being at everyone's beck and call his whole life, he feels the need to be perfect, to stay strong and composed, to not shed a tear, no matter what.
In addition to this, he has a non-existent sense of self-worth, is having dark thoughts in his head, likes nothing about himself and has d3pr3ss!0n. However, he doesn't tell anyone about this and keeps his feelings bottled up.
The two sisters and their younger siblings end up finding out about this and try to indirectly hint at his mental struggles to the rest of the family so that, together, they can confront him about it and help him recover.
What'll happen from there? And most importantly, will they be able to save him? Or will he receive another warm welcome from the Grim Reaper? Read to find out.

Win Metawin skyrocketed in the entertainment industry during his first year of university. 15 years later he is a retired actor, model, and singer. Married for ten years with a 7-year-old daughter, he finds himself divorced and a single parent after his wife was caught in a string of public affairs.
Heartbroken and trying to put the crumbs of his and his daughter's life back together, he decides to take a break from the cameras and media for the holiday season and takes his daughter to his childhood home that he hasn't set foot in since before he got married ten years prior.
Bright Chivaaree left university his first year to take care of his sick mother. With no education he fought to provide for her for six years until she passed away from her illness. The bank seized there home and Bright was living in his car when Lita Iamkajorn found him and brought him home.
With Lita's help Bright finished school and rebuilt his life, both of them leaning on each other as replacements for Bright's dead mother and Lita's estranged relationship from her son, Win.
At 33 years old Win will come home this holiday season to repair the fences with his relationship with his mother, put the building blocks of his and his daughter's life back together, and unravel past misunderstandings and misconceptions of his old schoolmate Bright, all while trying to keep the holiday cheer turned up for his 7-year-old daughter.
Will Win find the life he'd been waiting for all along back home? Or will his walls send him back to the only life he's know for the past 15 years?
This is very Hallmark Christmas cheese, but I've never written a holiday fic and I wanted to try it.
