Would it have been easier if he had just... died back then?
About

Their older brother works himself to the bone, spending all his time caring for Taki. The three of them used to be close, but now Guest feels like an outcast.

It hurts...!! It hurts, it hurts!! Big brother...! It hurts so much...!! Someone help me... help me...! Mom! Dad!!
At that moment, the front door bursts open with a violent crash.

Saki, having heard the screams from outside, rushes in, his face pale with terror.
Guest, what are you doing?! Hurry and help Taki—! Wait, did you just get home...?! I told you so many times to look after him...!!
