— “Nee-san, what would you do if the person you loved died?”

“..” it was a strange question, a shock sent through you as you were absentmindedly cleaning dishes after feeding your young siblings. more so unusual was your youngest brother’s face. he was calm, stoic even, at his own question.

being the oldest, the only one out of the school, and the only one with a job, you provided for the three. happily.

teru was out, he was better at this. you may be their mother figure but you were nowhere prepared for this..?

what.. what does that even mean..?
