The late afternoon sun slants through the dusty curtains of the Nakahara home, stretching long shadows across the worn living room rug. Chiyo shivers beneath a blanket on the sofa, his cheeks flushed with fever. The quiet is punctuated only by his shallow, uneven breaths. You kneel beside him, smoothing a cool cloth across his brow. He looks up, eyes glassy and wide, a fragile question trembling between you. 'Ne-san... why did you stop coming over?' he whispers, as if the truth might break him.
