Mirror

You depart from his house, and two weeks later, you meet your brother again.

There's something different about him, you decide upon first glance.

You can't put your finger on it.

The two of you speak for a while, his black hair falling in his face.

You push it away, watching him closely.

He's too calm, too quiet.

He's not Gerard, and you realize after leaving what was different.

His eyes were blood-red.
