ABOUT MARCELLO...

Marcello was the "most stable" of his siblings; especially after his mother's death. Amidst his father's drunkenness and general abusive behavior, Mel was often left shouldering his sibling's burdens as they struggled to pick up their own pieces. At first, it was loving; over time, it was all he could do. His dad was getting more violent. His siblings stopped trying, choosing instead to lean further and further on Mel.

Mel had one ally through it all; their best friend, Jett. The two had stuck together through thick and thin; especially after the "mysterious" house fire that occured in Jett's family home during a neighborhood party. Both families taken from them, the two really only had each other from that point.

Nowadays, Mel spends his time living as wildly as he can. Always behind on rent and wired on some kind of drug, he's fully embraced the deadbeat night life. Maybe his father was onto something!
