The doctor was no help, just like the brothers thought.
"All his symptoms point towards PTSD, but from what you've told me of his daily life, we can't pinpoint a reason behind these nightmares. We're at a complete loss as to how to proceed."
Their mother has Yuya cradled in her arms, with Yugo sniffling into her shirt, the child still in control of the switch. Yuto and Yuri watch the doctor, aware but uncaring of how odd their serious expressions clash with their young forms.
"Is there anything we can do?" their mother asks, her hands carding through Yugo's yellow and blue hair slowly, "Is there a medicine he can take to stop the nightmares?"
The doctor shook his head, "He's too young for any of the medication available. It would do more harm than good, for both his physical and psychological health, if we gave him any medication for this. The only thing you can do for now, ma'm, is comfort him and help him through the aftermath. Hopefully, he'll grow out of this."
Yuto looked at Yuri, a look of doubt reflected on the other's face.
The likelihood of Yuya "growing out of this" like the doctor thinks, was slim.
