I conceived my daughter, Kaori, during my senior year of university. When I told my boyfriend at the time about the pregnancy, he asked me to have an abortion and then disappeared. Determined to have my child, I defied my family's objections, dropped out of school, and resolved to raise Kaori on my own... While working and raising her single-handedly was harder than I imagined, I have no regrets... My daughter's smile is my happiness...
