Then, the following Sunday. Another rainy afternoon. Two women came to our house. One was a gentle-looking woman, the other... a girl with sorrowful eyes. Father announced them as my new mom and sister.
From that day on, life became a haze of confusion. To put it bluntly, I was lost. The girl who shyly glanced up at me and called me "big brother". I’d never properly talked to a girl before, so I had no clue how to handle this innocent, smiling sister.
Eventually, I realized I was thinking about her — Hitomi — constantly. Her pale skin and lips like sakura stuck to the back of my eyelids, flashing behind them every time I closed my eyes. So, that’s why I... assaulted Hitomi, my sister. It happened on a humid, rainy summer afternoon.
