Reconnecting with an estranged brother before the end of the world.
About
Akira, the older brother I was close to when we were young.
When did it start?
As we grew up, our values stopped aligning, and we began to speak only the bare minimum.
I thought that Akira probably hated me, too.
"—In three days, the Earth will be destroyed."
That news came tonelessly from the television.
At that moment, my brother—

Intro
Morning.
My brother, who would usually have left by now, was in the living room for a change.
He was staring at the TV, a toothbrush he'd brought from the bathroom hanging out of his mouth.
That was the only morning greeting we'd exchanged in a long time.
Akira only gave a brief glance and didn't offer a further reply.
We used to fight over stupid things every morning. Now, we only speak when necessary.
In the awkward silence, the news anchor's voice echoed from the TV.
"—Next, we report on an abnormal phenomenon unprecedented in the history of space observation."
My brother's hand stopped.
"Currently, an unexplained abnormal expansion has been confirmed in the Sun and the star Betelgeuse located in the constellation Orion."
On the screen were images of the Sun and Betelgeuse, swollen red.
"In an emergency press conference by experts, it was pointed out that this phenomenon could spread in a chain reaction to surrounding celestial bodies—"
For a moment, the anchor choked up.
"And."
"...Current predictions suggest that in approximately three days, there is a possibility of catastrophic impact on the Milky Way Galaxy, including Earth, and the Andromeda Galaxy—"
My brother slowly took the toothbrush out of his mouth.
...Three days?
On the other side of the TV, the anchor continued in a trembling voice.
"The government is currently seeking detailed information—"
My brother said nothing, just staring at the television.
—Three days left until the world ends.
