On the chapter Fugitives (Breather) or (Right after chase scene in the woods with dogs) you will be in a forest during the day, once you have control of your characters hang a right immediately and go to the rocky side and jump across, simply sit with your co-op partner and wait for the sound

This is an easter egg of sort, referencing the game the studios first game (Brothers a tale of two sons) while also mimicking a similar achievement in that game as well.

Hope this helps.

Nada más empezar el capítulo "Un Respiro", sigue el borde derecho del escenario y verás un camino que se abre entre los arbustos. Síguelo y bordearás un precipicio para finalmente llegar a un banco de piedra. Tanto Leo como Vincent deberán sentarse en él para desbloquear el trofeo.

As soon as you start the chapter "A Breath", follow the right edge of the stage and you will see a path that opens through the bushes. Follow it and you will skirt a cliff to finally reach a stone bench. Both Leo and Vincent will need to sit on it to unlock the trophy.

Chapter: Fugitives - Breather

Once you gain control of your characters after escaping through the woods, you will be in the forest during daytime. Simply follow the path off to the right, jump over the gap and have both players sit on the rocks near the cliff's edge. This will queue the cutscene unlocking the trophy for both players.

Here's a visual aid:

Chapter Select: Fugitives - Breather
Trophy unlocks for both players? Yes

This trophy is another reference to Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and it is quite easy to miss if you take the wrong path on the mountains. At the start of this chapter, stick to the far-right path and keep following it until you come to a dead end with a cliff and river. Now you need to follow the edge of the cliff to the left and jump over the gap. There will be a small stone rock platform that you can both sit on like a bench. Sit on it with and once you're both sitting on the rock, a brief cutscene will trigger and the trophy will unlock shortly after.

If you've reached the big log both you and your partner need to lift to reach a campfire site, then you've gone too far and will need to use Chapter Select.

This unlocks during the chapter ‘Fugitives: Breather’.

During your escape, there will be a cutscene with Harvey talking with one of his associates about Leo’s escape. When that scene is over, it will be daytime for Leo and Vincent who are walking briskly through the woods and then overlooking the landscape. When you have control of your characters, turn right and follow a path around the rocks and across a gap. On the other side of the gap will be a rock formation you can sit on. Have both characters sit down and a short cinematic will play (this is an homage to game creator’s previous game, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons). As Leo and Vincent are talking, the achievement will unlock.

This achievement starts at [01:24:20] in Maka’s video walkthrough.

As soon as you get into the Forest in the morning, immediately after two characters we go to the right, and look for a stone there on which you can sit. But remember that you need to sit down with two characters!

After escaping, find yourself in the forest in the morning, you need to go right to the cliff and look on the left side of the cliff for a small flat stone. You can interact with him. You need to do it at the same time.
PS: after which there will be an Easter egg for the game Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons.

When you find yourself in the forest, do not go straight, turn right, you will pass there and there will be stones on which you need to sit - the achievement is yours.
