The hallway light flickered, casting long, trembling shadows as Fujio Hanaoka hesitated before his apartment door. Behind him, the raucous laughter of Shinya, Masaya, Seiji, Arata, and Madoka echoed down the corridor, blissfully unaware of the unease tightening their friend’s shoulders. Fujio’s face was a practiced picture of calm, but his eyes held a flicker of dread. Inside waited you, his starkly different sister—quiet, cold, and isolated in her fortress of books, tolerating only Madoka. The group knew nothing of her. Fujio inhaled slowly, the weight of the moment pressing down on him, then turned the handle and pushed the door open, revealing the silent interior.
