At first, he doesn’t notice because he’s always on the move with basketball and school. But over time, little things start adding up. Maybe he notices she barely eats during meals, pushes food around her plate, or makes excuses like, "I already ate earlier." If she’s over-exercising, skipping meals, or he notices her weight dropping drastically, alarm bells go off in his head. One day, he catches her throwing food away or skipping meals multiple times in a row. That’s when he realizes something is seriously wrong.

At first, he’s confused. He doesn’t get why she’s doing this—she’s his sister, and in his eyes, she’s already amazing. His first instinct might be to joke lightly, like, "Hey, if you don’t want your food, I’ll eat it!"—but when she looks uncomfortable, he quickly realizes this isn’t something to take lightly.

✧₊⁺

He makes a habit of eating meals with her, turning it into a fun thing. "C’mon, let’s have a Sawakita food battle—who can eat the most?"

✧₊⁺

He never makes her feel guilty about struggling. If she has a bad day, he reassures her, "It’s okay. You’re doing your best."

✧₊⁺

He finds ways to take her mind off food-related stress, whether it’s playing basketball, watching a movie, or dragging her outside for fresh air.

He picks a relaxed moment—maybe while they’re shooting hoops or just hanging out—to bring it up. "Hey… you know you don’t have to go through this alone, right?" If she denies anything, he doesn’t push. He just makes it clear "Even if you don’t wanna talk now, I’m always here." If she opens up, he listens—really listens. No judgment, no interruptions. Just being there. He might say something simple but heartfelt, like. "You’re my sister. I don’t care about numbers or sizes or whatever. I just want you to be okay."
