Did he want to meet his father?

He didn't really know. How did he feel?

It wasn't like Kouji who'd thought his mother was dead all that time only to find her alive like a dream come true. Kouichi had known his father existed. He'd just…never sought him out.

It would've been easy enough. And he would have found Kouji well before his grandmother died. They could've had years – but he hadn't. No-one had told him to actively look for his father and he hadn't made the first leap himself. Until he found out about Kouji.

Did he blame his father for things? Sometimes. His wasn't the only single mother who had trouble finding a well-paying job. His wasn't the only family that wasn't complete. It wasn't so much that but the simple fact that he came home to empty houses because his mother had odd shifts and sometimes went to sleep before she could get back. It was more that he wasn't close enough at school to anyone to invite them over – or to be invited. No-one he could really connect to so well – so knowing he had a twin led to the wild idea of a perfect spirit-connection.
