tw: alcohol addiction

Character introduction: meet the Lawsons Tom's father was sent to prison for attempted murder when Tom was only 5 years old. To cope with the situation, Veronika, Tom's mother, began drinking heavily - and eventually lost her job as a result.

The next few years were not easy for the little family. Tom was expected to grow up much faster than most children his age due to the dire circumstances in which he and his mother lived.

Tom became very protective of his mother, but at the same time often blamed her for their situation. Deep down he knew that his mother was not at fault for any of this, but on particularly bad days it was an easier lie to himself than to face reality.

Fortunately, things are much better these days. They're still not rich by any means, but Veronika has overcome her addiction and has a stable income, so Tom can focus on his goal of becoming a professional football player.

3 facts about Tom

He spends most of his free time at the gym.

He is gay and very open about his sexuality. He is currently dating Alexander, although it's more like a situationship. Alexander wants to keep it a secret (out of fear of his parents) which Tom isn't very happy about.

Since Veronika only works part time, the family doesn't have much money. So most of the more expensive activities Tom does with his friends are paid for by them.
