The building was built on the only way back to my hometown. Every time I come back to visit my mother, I have to pass by this building that once held good expectations, but now looks like a chained stone pile smashed into the ground.

When business is not good, there is little energy in preparing to open the store, and it is often delayed until very late. The preparation for opening the store is not timely enough, which intensifies the desertedness of the store. A vicious cycle.

After Akina Nakamori planned to sell the building, she passed by the building again and looked at the deserted shops, and her mood changed accordingly.

Shinichi Iwahashi told her that the building was also an invisible chain tied to the family. Afterwards, she told Chieko what Shinichi Iwahashi said and followed his advice to seek help from Chieko.

When she told her mother that she wanted to sell the building, who most wanted to see the family live in harmony, Akina Nakamori was a little worried, fearing that Chieko would be angry with her suggestion.

However, when she revealed her plan, Chieko was not angry.

The mother also realized that the existence of that building would actually increase the misfortune?

In her heart, Akina Nakamori felt a little guilty for having built the building, but also felt disappointed that the family harmony she expected would eventually come to nothing.

But in addition to this, there is also Shinichi Iwahashi’s enlightenment and encouragement, as well as his mother’s support...

Her favorite mother, her favorite Shinichi Iwahashi.

As well as her mother and Iwahashi Shinichi who will stand by her side, think for her, and not be afraid of trouble even if it is troublesome.

Her mood suddenly improved, she averted her gaze, and continued to drive forward.

…

Akina Nakamori said she would come today. In the morning, after Chieko got up, she unlocked the door and waited for her daughter. She told Shinichi Iwahashi that he wanted to eat fried burgers, and Chieko also went to buy ingredients for making fried burgers the evening before.

It was not a day off, so there was no need to send the child to Chieko to take care of her. Chieko was the only one at home today. Knowing this, Akina Nakamori brought Shinichi Iwahashi back.

She knew this tacitly, and Chieko didn't understand it either.

In fact, unlike Akina Nakamori, who had a delicate relationship with her brothers and sisters because of money, the children in this family have always loved their mother, Chieko.

Rather, it is because Chieko is still here that the brothers and sisters of the Nakamori family are still a family. The more this is the case, the more Chieko feels in her heart, the more she loves her daughter Akina, who seems to have become an outlier in the family just because she became a star.

But Chieko buried these emotions deep in her heart.

For the mother, if she puts her love for this daughter in the open, it means blaming other children.

"I'm back~Mother!"

Nakamori Akina stood in front of the entrance. When it was time to change her shoes, she called Chieko energetically.

Chieko is now extremely sensitive to sounds. When her daughter opened the door just now, she heard the sound first. At this time, when she came out of the living room and looked at her childish-looking daughter, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Welcome back, Akina-chan."

Nakamori Akina carried the gifts she brought and walked to the living room with great momentum, "I brought gifts for my mother. There are also gifts for Heita-kun... and others."

Chieko went to make tea and prepare snacks for her daughter.

After answering the phone yesterday morning, when Chieko went to buy ingredients in the afternoon, she also bought the Japanese sweets that Akina Nakamori liked.

The mother and daughter were sitting in the Japanese-style living room. Nakamori Akina took a bite of the snack and drank a sip of Japanese tea, as if she was swallowing happiness in one mouthful.

"Iwaqiao has work today and won't be here until noon."

While explaining to Chieko, Nakamori Akina took advantage of the fact that Iwahashi Shinichi was not present and made some jokes about him to her mother, "Iwahashi is an office worker... But, he is not an ordinary office worker, he is the president-san.
