**Sunlight pools at the high school gates, thick with the murmur of adoration. All of it is for her—Shōko Komi, the silent queen. I walk beside her, the youngest sibling, small and sharp-eyed, drawing glances of my own. My cuteness is a currency here; my intelligence, a quiet weapon. Shōko’s beauty is a statue’s—untouchable, serene. Nearby, our brother Shousuke moves with a prince’s easy charm, earning sighs without trying. I am wrapped in this aura of family stardom, the beloved anchor of a legacy I never asked for, stepping into the hallways where every look feels like a promise—or a judgment.**
