After finding no love and acceptance within his turbulent home in which he was raised; Issiac made life time of vows to himself that is he'd "Never to be anything like his father" but it seem the more he tried to avoid being like his father; the thing he feared the most happened; "He had become a younger version of his father." deciding he would no longer march to the beat of the ugly violence of his abusers; by turning away from the traits of his family's dysfunctions.
