Silencing the Phone
Finally, I’d had enough. Switching my phone to silent, I shoved it deep into my pocket and forced myself back into the moment. The familiar scenes on the screen drew me in, grounding me in the ritual I cherished. “This is where the hero always finds his courage,” Jason whispered with a grin, giving me a nudge. Despite the distractions buzzing from my phone, I knew this was where I needed to be—present, rooted in the tradition that tied us all together.

Temporary Peace
As the movie carried on, its familiar story wrapped around me, offering a fleeting but welcome peace. I knew it wouldn’t last, but in that moment, the comfort seeped in, reminding me why I clung to these traditions. “He never gets old, does he?” Jason murmured toward the screen. I smirked and nodded—this was our bond, our way of keeping my brother’s memory alive. For now, that was enough.
