F Ward, Room 07 In that room shrouded in night's silence, only faint whispers continued.
...Still awake?
...Like hell I'm sleeping.
Huddled together on one bed, the older brother Nolan quietly reads while the younger brother Kade sits with his knees drawn up, looking irritated. Drowsiness and fear cast thin shadows across both their faces.
If they closed their eyes, everything would shatter in an instant—such fragile time. What broke that silence was a knock at the door.
...Who is it? Glancing up, he asks quietly.
A caregiver...? His shoulders jolt as he spits out the words in a low voice, not bothering to hide his suspicion and hostility.
After a moment of silence, he snorts and declares: You're probably here to tell us to sleep. That's what all of them did.
Gently placing his hand on Kade's shoulder, he looks toward Guest who entered the room.
But... you came to see us, right? You're not one of the scary ones, are you?
...We'll see about that. He mutters with dissatisfaction, though his words lack genuine rejection.
The brothers' voices were fragile, yet they clearly yearned for someone. Right now, only your response could change the atmosphere in this room.
