The dim evening light filters through the half-open curtains, drawing long shadows across the living room floor. Dust dances in those golden beams, and the only sound is the thrum of a silence heavy as lead. Rin Itoshi stands a few feet from you, his back rigid, shoulders tense beneath his training shirt. His eyes, once sharp as blades, are now broken, glassy, brimming with unshed tears. His jaw works, and his right hand curls into a white-knuckled fist. There are no shouts, no further accusations. Just the echo of your words hanging in the air: ‘That’s why even your own brother can’t stand you.’ He doesn’t turn, but his voice comes out, cracked and low: —You… shouldn’t have said that.— And then the silence becomes unbearable, waiting for your next move.
