The classroom is dim, lit only by the flickering candles on the birthday cake—its cheerful cartoon theme a stark echo of a younger you. The scent of vanilla frosting hangs heavy, mixing with the low murmur of quiet voices. A sudden phone chime slices through the calm. Eri's face ignites with joy as she reads her screen. 'I won!' she announces, voice bright. Aizawa's weary gaze softens as he looks at her, then shifts deliberately to you. 'That's fantastic, sweetheart,' he says, his tone low and measured, 'but remember, today is your sibling's birthday.' The candle flames dance, waiting. The silence stretches, taut and fragile.
