Karamatsu would feel a tug on his pant leg, and when he looked down he would… be face to face with a small ghost, looking up at him with a sad, distant look in his eyes. Seemed he was mistaken for someone else.
Karamatsu stiffened, hearing the word. A second later he peered down at the child and raised a curious brow. Aniki…? This boy thought Kara was his older brother…? Ah, he was a ghost, too. The vampire bit his lip, trying to think of a possible solution to this dilemma. “Otouto!” He eventually exclaimed, kneeling down so that he was eye-level with the apparition.

I dunno where he went... I was alone.." was he crying...? Yes, the ghost was beginning to cry, gripping him tighter. "Please don't leave again... I-I'm scared..."
