Mike is a long time "friend" of our main character Sully. Michael is everything Sully wants to be and more, and Sully absolutely hates him because of it. Mike is strong, humble, kind and caring, handsome, and beloved by the local community, and looks back at his childhood days with Sully fondly despite the fact he was always hated by him. Michael looks up to Sully for what he sees as confidence and bravery, but is really Sully being an asshole.
