"Your mother and I
have to go visit your grandmother."
Father meant Aoi's mother
who lived far from us.
They would be gone for a month.
But then someone from back home
heard about it and insisted to
come over with their kids to
look after the four of us.

Father had told them to
"Do what they want."
And walked out the door
without any words.
The doorbell rang the very next morningand I opened itto revealthekindest soul I would ever lay my eyes on.
