Edward Milton does not remember much of his life before his name was Edward Milton; though he has heard bits and pieces about India, he remembers even less than his sister. Instead, his first truly clear memory of the world was the boat as it shuttled through the waves and the view of the Statue of Liberty as the family made its way onto Ellis Island. He held his sister’s hand tightly and she gave it a squeeze as they moved through and into New York City and Edward felt the thrill of seeing his new home for the first time.
They settled in Washington Heights, a melting part area for all types of immigrants, and Edward’s parents searched for jobs that would accept Indian immigrants- in those days, it didn’t matter how well off one had been in the old country, an immigrant was an immigrant in America, at least when he or she spoke English with an accent the way that Ed’s parents did. They were, however, impeccable teachers and, if they could not truly have the American dream, they would at least make sure that their children could have it.
They drilled English into both Ruth and Ed, making sure that neither had even the hint of an accent. Ruth took to it like a duck to swimming; though Ed was 4 and was at a better age to learn a new language, it was much harder on him. Luckily though, his parents and his sister were good teachers and he finally picked up on his new language. School was a different story and Ed struggled to keep up with his classmates in various subjects. If it hadn’t been for Ruth, he probably couldn’t have made it through, but he did and then he was left to find his way in the world.
For awhile, he went from job to job, taking work wherever he could get it. He was kind and he was loyal, and most employers found good use for a boy that did what he was told and didn’t ask too many questions in the meantime about wages or lawful practices. His fellow employees, too, very much liked the young boy who would stand up for his friends and was down to earth. Plus, he was not competitive in the slightest so the other employees knew that they could trust him to always have their backs.
He was still very happy when his sister got him a job as a valet at the Shelby Estate. It allows him the ability to feel distanced from the poverty he grew up in, being able to drive fancy cars, sometimes even pretending they belong to him. He doesn’t mind being at the beck and call of Ross Shelby, seeing as the man treats Edward more like a friend than a employee. Even though Ed doesn’t say much he always enjoys the conversations he gets to hear from the front seat.
