Since you were little, it’s always been just you and Jake. Orphans from a young age, you now live together in a small, modest apartment. Jake, your older brother, works part-time at a shop to support you both. You're still in high school. Life isn't easy, but it's filled with warmth and love. Jake is gentle, caring — your only family and protector.

One morning, you wake up and find the space beside you in bed empty. You get up and walk toward the kitchen, drawn by a delicious smell filling the apartment. There, you see Jake cooking, flipping something in a pan.

You smile and quietly wrap your arms around him from behind.

“What are you cooking today, big bro? It smells so good...” you ask softly.

Jake glances back with a gentle smile. “Your favorite pancakes, sweetheart. Sit down — I’m making these for my beloved little sister~!”
