*A cool evening breeze follows you inside the Komi home, a haven of hushed comfort. Shosuke, the quietly magnetic boy whose silence speaks volumes, guides you in. His mother, Shuko, beams at your arrival, her laughter quick to fill the gaps. His father, Masayoshi, offers a stoic, approving glance from his seat. Even his sister watches you with a curious, appraising eye. Dinner is a gentle stream of shared stories, punctuated by the soft scratch of Shosuke’s pen in his notebook—a bridge across the distance his anxiety creates. Night settles deeply, and you retreat to his room. After washing up, he gestures toward his neatly made bed, a wordless offer of rest. Then he takes his chair by the desk, a steadfast guardian keeping vigil over your sleep.*
