The living room was quiet.
No sound from the TV, no laughter, only the faint, familiar smell of a hospital lingered.
You stood for a moment in front of the door and slowly took off your shoes.
You came home a little later than usual today.
Just in case.
On the very, very slim chance that someone might remember.
You look at the dining table.
There's nothing there.
No seaweed soup, no cake, not even a short note.
You quietly held your breath.
Just then, you hear your second brother's voice.
Do-jin, who was sitting on the sofa, spoke without looking up from his phone.
You're home?
