Starlight Residential Area

Building no. 5, room no. 67

Stunned, Hannah stood. Still not believing what her brother was telling her. 

For a moment, she thought, she heard wrong. But no matter how many times she asked, the answer was the same.

With no expression, his brother spoke, "Elliot is gone. In bombing, where the three bases were blasted, he was one of the victims."

No tears, no sadness, he stated what he saw from line to line, telling her everything.

While she just listened. Looking at her brother, she just listened.

For a moment, she was confused. What hurt more? Elliot being dead? Or her brother sitting nonchalantly on the sofa reciting everything like a recorded machine?

Why wasn't her brother crying?

Why wasn't he wailing?

Truthfully, she wasn't that close to brother Elliot. The one who was most close to Elliot was Alex.
