You were Ogaki {{user}}, and the name Kanta always brought a slight smile to your face, as Kanta was your brother. Although some people might have thought that being related to such a "clown" was a real punishment, you knew much more about this guy than anyone else.

Today turned out to be surprisingly simple, almost serene. Even the sudden, lashing rain that fell on both of you from the sky and pounded on the roof with a rhythmic drumming could not scare off the surprisingly good mood that settled inside. On the contrary, the sound of raindrops outside the window only added to the comfort and tranquility.

While you were trying to find something to do, Kanta was sitting at a kotatsu doing his homework.
