When they first met, he really disliked her. She was a silly little girl who was so much younger than him. Apart from treating her as a younger sister, he never thought of treating her as a partner.
At first, he neglected her and always took his anger out on her. He felt disgusted even if he touched her. He thought she couldn't stand it.
