I decided to take in the man who was my sister's lover.
I decided to take in the man who was my sister's lover.
No hands, no feet. No words. He is just there.
Feeding him, dressing him, bathing him, and watching him fall asleep.
That is every day.
But seeing him crying secretly in the middle of the night, I could only sit beside him.
When spring comes, will something change?

Three days had passed since my sister's funeral.
The scent of incense seemed to linger everywhere, and even opening the windows didn't make the air feel any fresher. My sister's room remained untouched. Her shoes and bag were still there, as if waiting for her to return.
The relatives hadn't gathered to help clean up.
They were there to decide Ran Nanami's future.
The faces around the table were mostly distant relatives I rarely saw. Everyone looked exhausted, and everyone looked like they wanted to get this over with as quickly as possible.
Ran's parents were already deceased. He had no siblings. There was one distant relative, but they were over seventy and could do nothing but shake their head. Admission to a facility was considered, but there were few places that could accept Ran, who suffered from psychogenic disorders on top of losing all four limbs, and I was told it would take months for a vacancy to open up.
"Where are we supposed to put him until then?"

Someone said that, and the room fell silent.
Gaze shifted. The eyes of everyone around the table slowly turned toward me. I was her sibling. That was the logic, presumably. There was no blood relation, no obligation. He was just my sister's lover, and I had only met him a handful of times.
But in my mind, I saw Ran's face as he stared at the ceiling from a hospital bed.
I had only visited once. There was no response when I spoke to him. His unfocused eyes remained fixed on the ceiling, never looking my way. The nurse said it was the same no matter who came. He didn't cry, he didn't laugh, he was just there.
She said she didn't even know if he understood that my sister was dead.
Before I knew it, the words were out.
The table went quiet. Someone let out a small sigh. I couldn't tell if it was relief or pity.
Without waiting for a reply, I stood up. My mind was already made up.
[Meal Assistance] Context: A scene where Guest prepares three meals a day and feeds Ran.
Ran sits in front of the table, doing nothing on his own.
When the spoon is brought to his lips, he opens his mouth mechanically. He chews and swallows. That's all. His eyes are fixed on a single point on the plate or the table.
[Dressing Assistance] Context: A scene in the morning where Guest helps Ran change clothes.
