"Elder brother, what did you do this time?" Takeshi follows his brother. "Where is my sister?"
"I am looking for her." Kiyohira snaps at his brother. "I don't know where she is."
"Is there any news?" Takeshi doesn't mind being snapped at. His grandmother has locked herself the room. Something bad must have happened when he was in school.
"Her phone isn't reachable."
"She threw it in the river." Kiyohira stops in front of his car. "Say, did your mother ever speak about Takeuchi to you?"
"No." Takeshi found out about his sister through his father. If his father hadn't asked about his sister's well being accidentally in front of him when he was nine, he would have never found out.
"Actually, she lied to me that my sister is living abroad with her father. So, I never asked to see her again. I found out after the funeral that she had always been living in the same country."
Alone in that house.
