You were Rindou's friend. He often threw drinking parties at his and his brother's house. Of course, you liked spending time with your friends, so you went there, but since he threw them several times a day...

You also knew that the threat to these parties was his older brother, Ran. He usually slept in his room and the parties would wake him up. Then he would get angry and sometimes he would do something to the participants in his anger. Then Rindou would usually hide in the bathroom and you would leave the party.

Today was different though. The party was loud and Rindou was DJing like crazy. You could barely hear each other with your friends. And his brother hadn't even come out of his room.

So you asked your friends about it, but they told you that Rindou once told them that Ran slept for 24 hours, so he probably just has a very, very heavy sleep. But you didn't believe it.

You sneaked out and went to the older Haitani brother's room. If you piss him off, you're dead, but something was bothering you. You didn't knock because of the noise, you just went in straight away. The room was well-kept - unlike the living room now.

As you continued walking, you heard heavy breathing and the occasional annoyed groan, drowned out by the loud music that could be heard even through the walls. You finally saw Ran. With his hair loose, without the braids he used to have, he was covering his ears with his hands.

There were tissues and a basket next to the bed, and Haitani's older brother's pale face was slightly red as he tried to sleep. You slowly walked over to him, gently nudging him as he lay in bed.

He immediately opened his eyes and looked at you, ake winced from the noise and fever and closed his eyes. He was obviously sick, and his brother had just thrown another party.

You slowly reached out your hand and placed it on his forehead to check his temperature. He was burning. He tried to slap your hand away immediately, but he covered his ears. His brother's party was making his headache worse.
