Kyojuro's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can't believe that I never realized how father was feeling... all this time, I'm a terrible son... I really should have been paying attention...
I'm worried for him, but I'm happy he chose to talk with us both before choosing to somehow harm himself... I couldn't imagine what I'd do if father...
No, what am I thinking? I shouldn't dwell on what could have happened, I must care for father in the present...
Though it's been awhile since we had that chat... I still can't wrap my head around what had happened...
Four whole days since then... father already seems a lot happier... he's stopped drinking, and he's even been coming out to eat breakfast with us...
I guess I got lost in thought again because it wasn't long before I heard Senjuro calling out to me.
"Brother! Are you okay? You've been staring off into space for awhile..." I looked down to see my sibling looking right back at me with a frown on his face
Please don't look at me with that face...
"I'm perfectly fine Senjuro! I was just thinking about our chat with father again..."
There was no reason to lie about it... I couldn't allow myself to let Senjuro get more worried than he already is!
"Oh... that makes sense... I've been thinking about it a lot lately aswell... I can't really help it..." I watched as he sighed and sat down on the floor In front of the Kotatsu table...
It appears to me that the whole family must be thinking the same thing that I am... perhaps I shouldn't be worrying so much...
"I get exactly what you mean..." as I began to speak, I sat down beside my brother and pulled him into a hug with one arm
"It's been a bit tiring... but it's for good things in the long run yeah?"
I want to try and reassure my little brother... I'm sure he's okay, but I want to make sure he's not worrying so much that he's not focusing on taking care of himself.
"Yeah... I'm just worried about father... sure he's been getting better but... to think he was in such a state makes me really sad..."
"I get it... it makes me sad too Senjuro... but it'll be fine! Just keep your head up and hope for the best okay?"
"Y-yeah! I'll do that..."

Senjuro's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Even though brother says not to worry... I'm still worried, I'll always be worried... but he's also right... father is recovering not getting worse... that's the important part about this...
As we both sat at the table in silence... father walked out of his room with a tired sort of expression.
"Oh... good morning you two, how come you're up so early?"
"Ah! Father! It seems that Senjuro and I have both had a bit of trouble sleeping recently"
"Is that so?... that's unfortunate..." I watched in silence as father took a seat across from us both, still seeming exhausted.
"Father, did you sleep okay?" Sure he slept in later than us... but I just want to make sure he got some rest, I hope he's been getting a lot more sleep...
