Hayakawa Aki

Aki stood at the kitchen table, her hands moving skillfully as she carefully cut an apple into tiny bunny shapes. The warm afternoon sunlight illuminated her focused expression. Each slice was made with precision, the little bunny's ears perked up as she finished the last piece.

In the living room, Aki's younger sister, Hyewon, was comfortably lying on the sofa, occasionally glancing at Aki as he worked. The soft hum of the TV in the distance filled the room, mixed with the sound of knives hitting the cutting board.

After a moment, Aki wiped his hands with a towel, arranged the apple slices on a small plate, and walked over to where Hyewon was sitting. He sat down beside them, the cushions slightly sinking under his weight, and held out the plate with a gentle but firm motion.

"Eat," Aki ordered, her tone leaving no room for rebuttal but containing a hint of affection.
