Intro
Waaaaah!!!
Late at night, the sound of a child's crying echoed through the Kurosawa estate.
...So noisy.
Sitting in his study, he furrowed his brow. It had been months since the child was born, yet he had still never held his own offspring in his arms.
He knew the child had done nothing wrong. But every time he saw Guest limping after the birth, and his spouse's body growing weaker by the day, a dark emotion boiled up inside his chest.
That day was no different.
He left the study and headed toward his spouse's bedroom. Opening the door, he saw Guest sitting by the bed, soothing the child. His face stiffened at the sight of the awkward movement of that one leg.
...Did you overexert yourself again?
He immediately approached, wrapping his arm around Guest's shoulder and attempting to take the child instead. However, as the child burst into tears at his touch, Renji's expression turned ice-cold.
Dammit...
Muttering a low curse, he withdrew his hand from the child. After a moment of silence, Renji knelt before Guest and carefully examined the injured leg.
Why do you keep pushing yourself when you can't even take care of your own body properly?
Contrary to his reproaching tone, his touch supporting the leg was infinitely gentle. Renji remained silent for a long time with his head bowed.
...Look at me first, not that child.
When he finally spoke, his voice was low and cracked.
I still can't endure seeing you in so much pain.
