Summary: Different storylines were either one or both the Alphas are either mute or deaf and are being taught by Clear how to do sign language/communicate by sign language. A good way to have a family bonding moment... or at least as close as one.

Clear wasn’t sure how to take the news the moment he found out Alpha was unable to spout out a single word from his mouth. It took him a few days to realise that his young sibling was –in fact- a mute, and wasn’t giving him the cold shoulder Clear had previously thought.
Clear asked him why he kept his mouth shut the whole time and didn’t notify his older brother on the sudden ‘technical sound difficulties’. Clear would’ve been able to ask Tae immediately for help, asking suggestions on how to repair it and the tools and materials required for the operation. The only response he got from was an incredulous and bored stare before Alpha left towards the next room, indicating that he wanted to be left alone.
Watching him acting so damn stubborn made it impossible for Clear to endure it even longer. If only he had the patience as close to Sei’s –to this day, Clear had no idea how the young man had been able to manage the two Alphas, especially Alpha- maybe he would connect with Alpha a bit better.
Unable to hold back, Clear let out a loud groan, running his fingers through his snowy-white hair in sheer frustration as he slouched forward on the couch. He barely noticed Aoba walking into the living room and giving him a slight pity look as the blue-haired male perceived the android’s uneasiness.
Not receiving any notice of his own presence, Aoba cleared his throat loud enough to snap Clear out of his contemplation and having him looked directly into his eyes. He finally got his attention. “Clear, I know this must have been hard for you but you shouldn’t think too much about it. You’ve tried everything to help Alpha out, and he still constantly rejects it.” Why would Clear had to go through the trouble to deal with a difficult brother like Alpha? The whole situation robbed so much mental drainage and piled on stress over time to the point where everyone ended up having migraines witnessing such a miserable scenario. “It’s his problem, not yours.”
“I know, Aoba-san. I know.” It was hard to keep himself from whining but with how everything was going, Clear had the right to voice out his distress. “But I can’t help it! I made myself the promise to make sure everything goes well for them and that they’ll be able to live normal lives.” The Alphas may be adaptable but Clear knew well they were still having a hard time to grasp onto this new thing called ‘life’. It was silly but, at the same time, understandable with the kind of environment they used to live in back at the Oval Tower. He knew he had no control to change their dark past but with the present, Clear might be able to do something. Taking the role as the big brother, it was his duty to show the right path for his two youngest brothers. And he knew that in order to change both the Alphas he needed to put his main focus on the sole person who had the most influential and arrogant between the two of them: Alpha.
“Clear.” It was hard for Aoba to say anything else after seeing the emotional outburst. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. Seeing you this anxious will only eat you alive someday.” Losing sleep or skipping meals may not have any dire effects on Clear but Aoba understood the emotional impact Clear had to go through. He was unable to bear to see anymore of Clear’s discouragement and could only wish for it to be over.
Clear smiled weakly in response. “It’s okay. I just wish...” Feeling drained, Clear shut his eyes and let his head fall backward on the cushion. “...I wish I have a better and close brotherly connection with Alpha, like what you and Sei have.” He became aware on the loss of the usual bounce and vigour voice he had. “To tell you the truth, I’m a bit envious.”
Hanging around with your sibling, having a good laugh, chatting, playing games, and other wondrous bonding activities were the list of things that the Seragaki twins had and the things Clear wished he could have; instead he was gifted with snarky remarks, fights, pranks, and the worse of all, ignoring him at all costs.
Honestly, Clear thought he would have a higher chance communicating with the Alphas through non-verbal methods, like telepathy or, in realistic terms, signals.
Signals...
Signals?
An idea suddenly clicked in after he repeatedly murmured the word under a hushed tone. No longer able to control his excitement with a plan fresh in his mind, Clear jumped off so fast it scared the life out of Aoba. With a bright, wide smile on his face, Clear turned his head to Aoba, who had not yet recovered from the initial shock, and said:

Send me a ‘†’ and my muse will sing your’s to sleep as your muse passes away
Sakura Nagashi - Utada Hikaru (song cover sung by Mitchel Matuszak, since the English lyrics are from him, not the official translation)
In. Out. In. Out
That was the weak breathing rhythm from Sei as he lay weakly on the hospital bed, slowly dying. Few days ago, Sei had to go through an experimental surgery, which was nothing new to him. There was always one ready for him here in Oval Tower. What he didn’t expect was that the surgery turned out to end badly, leaving him in a crucial state.
Breathing turned out to be a difficult task for him, but Sei tried his best to suck in the oxygen into his lungs through slow, painful gasps. He needed the assistance of machines to supple oxygen through oxygen therapy. Without any sort of medical care or treatment, Sei would have been dead by now. Despite being born and cursed with a fragile body and living a miserable life, Sei was still happy. Happy at the fact that the Alphas were taking care of him, although he wished they didn’t have to witness such a sad fate.
Opening his mouth slightly, Sei looked at them and smiled. “Alpha, Alpha 2.” He called them out with his low, weak voice. “Do you mind… if I ask you something? I hope it’s not selfish but could you sing me a song? It’ll make me feel better.”
The two stood there in silence but nodded. They cannot turn down a request at a moment like this. Standing on one side of the bed, one of them took a light hold on Sei’s hand while the other stroke carelessly through the black hair strands. This was the only comforting thing the Alphas could do for him.
Taking in a deep breath, their voices came out in a melodious sweet, yet sad tune.
Watching the cherry blossoms fall
In the wind casting shadows
On the distance between us two
“Time has come, too early” ~ ♪
As they continued to sing, a heavy sinking feeling built inside of them. They weren’t sure what it was, but it bothered them. A lot.
Everybody finds love…
In the end. ~ ♪
Gripping onto the touch felt on his hand, Sei shut his eyes with a smile. Slowly breathing, he listened to their song.
Breathe in. Breathe out.
I never did tell you everything.
I can’t believe I won’t see you again.
I never did tell you everything.
I’ll never get to tell you everything. ~♫
They could feel their song getting stronger. It was a strange but amazing feeling. An intense overwhelming sensation that left the androids confused on why they were experiencing it. What would you call this? They wanted to ask Sei but knowing it would disrupt their singing, the Alphas continued on.
Watching the cherry blossoms fall
In the wind casting shadows
The trees could only watch the loss
Of their beauty, powerless ~ ♫
Sei’s chest moved up and down slowly. He could feel his life sapping away, leaving him barely conscious. However, Sei could sense the Alphas’ singing. It was beautiful. He wanted to talk more with them but he didn’t have enough energy to do so.
No matter what or how scared I am
I can’t look away ever again
When I slow down and time stops for me
I’ll finally find you and where I should be ~ ♫
The last line of the song was sung, the Alphas exhaled out loud. They were now left alone in this cold, silent white room. Looking back at the motionless body covered under the white bed-sheets, the twins leaned closely to Sei’s face and pressed their lips against the cold forehead. “Goodnight Sei,” the two whispered as if the other would wake up from his peaceful slumber.
