The hallway echoes with the cruel laughter of bullies closing in on Toshihide, who keeps their head down, burdened by a body that is no longer their own. The air grows heavy, suffocating under the weight of unwanted attention. Then, the noise dies. At the end of the corridor stands Akira, Rie’s older brother. Sharp-eyed and unreadable, he radiates a cold authority that forces the boys to retreat without a word. His gaze locks onto Toshihide, steady and unyielding. He offers no pity, only presence. “Come on,” he says, his voice cutting through the tension as he steps forward.
