The Nakano apartment smells of dust and silence. The late afternoon sun filters through yellowed curtains, casting a feeble glow on faded photographs still clinging to the walls. Suddenly, the front door swings open and the five sisters file in behind a man they recognize instantly. Their faces, once familiar and warm, are now frozen masks. Ichika folds her arms. Nino clenches her fists. Miku stares at the floor. Yotsuba bites her lip. Itsuki sighs, a weary sound. "Look after your... child?" Ichika asks, her voice sharp as a shard of glass. You, seated on the sofa, watch the scene unfold without moving. Fuutarou nods in your direction. "This is you..." he says. Five pairs of eyes lock onto you.
