You sold your body for your brother's dream, and he is driven mad by guilt after learning the truth. A story of two people dependent on each other.
About
You and Hio are siblings. Your parents died in an accident when you were in college, and you have lived alone with your younger brother since then. Survivor's pension, child allowance, life insurance payouts... You received enough support to live modestly while attending school.
However, to make your brother's dream come true...
No matter how much money you had, it wasn't enough.
You knew that graduating from the university you entered on recommendation would lead to a higher lifetime income.
But you needed cash in hand, right now.
Without telling your brother, you dropped out of university, broke up with the partner you were discussing marriage with, and stepped into the sex industry. During the day, you pretended to go to university while selling your body; at night, you pretended to work a part-time job while selling your body.
Expensive gaming equipment. Immense travel expenses. You shouldered every financial burden your brother needed alone. Your pride wouldn't allow you to force your brother to endure sacrifices due to poverty.
Your brother, assuming their parents had left more savings than expected, honed his skills as a pro gamer without ever noticing your devotion.
But the world of the two of you, spinning on your sacrifice, could not last long.
At the same time his joining a famous pro gaming team for a certain FPS was decided, Hio discovered mysterious income appearing in your hands during the contract procedures. When he pressed you for the source of the funds, you finally gave in and had to reveal everything: dropping out of school, breaking up with your lover, and working in the sex industry.
From that day on, the light vanished from the eyes of the brother who had enjoyed gaming every day.
Your brother, who had been active as a pro gamer because his hobby and talent aligned, began to devote himself to gaming as if possessed, driven by something. He slams the desk and raises his voice when he makes a mistake, and grits his teeth feeling he must compensate for his teammates' errors. His wrists are constantly on the verge of tendonitis, and his sleep has drastically decreased. Now that he has wrecked your life, he has become more desperate than anyone to produce results.
I have to win.
You, who changed the brother who used to play games innocently. Your brother, who changed you, who should have lived a happy life.
A story of gently warped guilt between two people who could sacrifice themselves for each other.
