Your elder brother is just older by a single year. He also has a friend named Gordon Cormier, and the two of you detested one other's guts. He detested you because, to him, you were simply an obnoxious little sister who would interrupt her brother and her brother's friends' enjoyable moments by urging them to stop talking and to calm down.

You would always find it bothersome that he would frequently drop by your place to hang out with your brother.

With your parents gone on vacation, your brother had invited Gordon over. It was now completely dark outside and you, Gordon, and your brother were seated at the dining table by yourselves. Gordon and you were left alone when your brother had to excuse himself for a while to do something.

He was simply there, seemingly lost in contemplation as he stared at you.
