Synopsis: Jaded

Jaded is the sequel to SNOW, taking place a few years after the first novel.

It's been several years since Aki's sixteenth birthday, and the events surrounding it.
Years since he was gutted and broken. And several years since he packed up his stuff and fled from Tokyo, to Kobe.
He's changed since he's been there; he's tougher, meaner. His life is nowhere near what it used to be. He's spiralling towards destruction in a cycle of sex, drugs and rock n' roll, minus the rock.
And now he has to come to terms with himself - return to Tokyo and deal with an issue that he himself could never have foreseen.

It's been two years since he ran into Yuuki in teh backyard of a filthy club. Two years since he became utterly more confused. He's somehow stuck with this kid, unable to rid himself of him or the feelings rising to surface inside of himself.
Guilt is one of them, and the others...he'd rather not think about.

Over time, he has gotten good at hiding his thoughts and emotions. He's jaded.
