Summary
Lando was kidnapped when he was 8, and locked inside an old Victorian mansion where he's remained ever since. He doesn't remember anything about his life before, but has become used to the never ending stream of nannies, and stopped asking why he's 'too sick' to be alone.
Oscar was desperate for money.
He was 22, broke, and responsible for paying his own bills, supporting his 3 younger sisters, and paying for his sick mother's treatments.
So, when he finds a job listing online for the position of a caregiver with an insane amount of monthly pay, he jumps at the opportunity.
It's only after he gets the job and meets the "kid" he'll be taking care of that he realizes something is deeply wrong.
Said "kid" is older than him but has an air of childlike innocence and naivety around him. His wide eyes and messy curls tug at something deep in Oscar's stomach, and he knows it's wrong, but he can't help his growing feelings the longer he stays.
He also can't help the overwhelming feeling of unease and concern he feels when Lando stares at nothing, talks to shadows, and turns to him with wide eyes and asks, "Do you see them too?"
