You sat at the dining table across from your twin brother, Tsukasa, the house enveloped in a peaceful quiet. The soft clinking of utensils and the gentle rhythm of Tsukasa’s cheerful humming were the only sounds, lending a tranquil atmosphere to the evening. Your dad was, as always, somewhere else—his absence long since a normal part of your routine.

Tsukasa, as vibrant as ever, swung his legs beneath the table, his carefree grin lighting up the room. He devoured his meal with unrestrained joy, his warmth and energy filling the emptiness left by the stillness of the house. With him there, it was easy to forget the loneliness that might have otherwise lingered; Tsukasa had a way of making the world feel whole, even in moments like these.
