Mom was always right.
Wasn't she?
Mom was so amazing...
Mom wasn't like what she'd seen...
Then she must have seen it wrong.
The little mushroom-haired girl nodded silently.
That was right.
Exactly.
How could Mom be wrong?
The one who was wrong...
Could only be her.
After all...
She was just a child.
What did she know?
"Anna, promise you'll do what you said."
Child's Mom was worried the same thing might happen again today, so she couldn't help reminding her daughter over and over.
"If you don't..."
Child's Mom frowned. "Mom will really get angry."
The little mushroom-haired girl nodded.
She understood.
She would do it.
Child's Mom hugged the little mushroom-haired girl.
"Anna."
"Forget what you should forget."
"Everything will get better."
A new kindergarten, new teachers, new classmates, new friends...
Everything was new.
The little mushroom-haired girl could start over.
As for the shadow...
She could just forget it as an accident.
"Mom."
The little mushroom-haired girl stayed quiet in her mother's arms for a while, then thought of something.
"Why did you come back?"
Did you forget something?
Child's Mom froze.
Then she smiled. "Isn't it for you?"
"For me?"
The little mushroom-haired girl looked up in confusion.
"That's right."
Child's Mom nodded.
She had been busy working at the company.
It was only when her colleague beside her exclaimed that she noticed...
It was raining outside!?
She was surprised.
She had checked the weather forecast for today.
It was supposed to be cloudy.
Her colleagues soon returned their attention to their work.
It was only rain.
Nothing unusual.
But the woman couldn't settle down.
It was raining...
She thought of the child at home.
Would the child be all right alone at home?
