He entered his brother room without asking first, and sat beside his brother. But all he can heard is silence which's covered with his brother's sniff.

Like asking his presence in his room right now.

Yet he can't answer that.

So he hug him. His only brother.

And just can whispered to his ears, that's gonna be okay.

But he surprised with sudden push from his brother.

Without context, but he already know what's he wanna ask.

He grab his brother hands, but bow his head, not able to saw his brother's expression right now.

All he can said right now is just a single sorry, with cracked voice. But with all means hidden in his heart that can't conveyed well.

Maybe because his brother's feels something's off with his only brother, he hugged back him, make his surprised at that sudden hug.
