"I heard that happened when they were on the way to pick up their daughter from kindergarten."
People were there to talk. Two photos of a man and a woman in the middle. People were crying, screaming, and talking about the misfortune that happened.
Among them, there was the girl; her eyes didn't show sadness, nor did they have tears. What they had was a question: why did this happen to my parents?
"What a pity; she's just five years old, isn't she?"
"Unexpectedly, she became an orphan at such a young age."
Everyone was telling the same thing. She could hear it, but what was the point of telling them back?
Beside her was a young girl in her high school uniform. She wrapped her arm around the child's shoulder, as if to say, "I am here for you."
She looked up and asked the hardest question any child could ask:
"Is Kana going to be all alone from now on?"
The single question from Kana could make an adult cry.
But the important question remained the same.
"WHO'S GOING TO ADOPT HER?"
A group of relatives chatted about who was going to adopt her.
"I'm not really good at taking care of kids, so I can't."
"I can't either. I already have three kids at home."
"How about you, Brother? You're still single, right?"
"If I have a child, I can't get married."
Tensions rose about who was going to take care of her. But hearing all of that made the young girl's blood boil.
"How about we put her in an orphanage?"
"If we do that, they'll think we're selfish and bad."
Then a girl slammed her hand on the table.
"This child, I will adopt her."
"What are you talking about, Aya? You just started working part-time. And most importantly, you are just a high school student," a woman said.
"I have already decided. I will raise my brother's daughter."
Aya's eyes filled with determination.
She turned to Kana and said, "Kana-chan, do you want to live with Auntie? Since Auntie started living alone, she will feel really lonely."
From Kana's lips, she asked, "Auntie is also alone just like me?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Yes, Kana wants to live with you."
In that moment of despair and loss, two people found each other. One found a reason to live, and one found someone she could rely on.
And this is the story of a pure romantic comedy that ignites hidden emotions, love, and bonds.
