"You're nothing like him," Basil quickly said, shaking his head. He sighed softly, falling silent for a moment. He then added, "And honestly, you shouldn't even bother caring about what they think. The people in that town are nothing but idiots. All they ever do is complain and hurt others for what they don't have, even though they have no idea how to get it for themselves. Or they do have a notion, but are too lazy to work towards it because it's someone else's responsibility apparently. They're hypocrites." He pursed his lips, regretting what he said immediately. In a moment of honesty, he quietly finished his rant with, "I only want to do this for you and my dad. And for my mom, even if she's no longer here. Everyone else just got lucky."
