Chapter 47 Did I do the right thing by saying I'm Japanese?

Heimei was actually really worried about Cheng Daqi.

For the first time, she experienced the feeling of fear and anxiety about loss.

Cheng Daqi's departure was just like her father's back in the day, mid-meal, receiving a message, he walked away without looking back.

No phone calls answered, no messages replied to, no one knew where he went.

She waited for her father for so long, so long that her half-brother from a different father was born, so long that she left that house which never felt like hers.

Since becoming homeless, Cheng Daqi had been the best neighbor she had ever met, and she truly regarded Cheng Daqi as a friend.

So, Sani worried, worried that Cheng Daqi would leave and never return.

Finally, after a long wait, Cheng Daqi finally replied to Sani's message.

"Already on the bus, will be home soon."

Home.

Sani glanced at their tents leaning on each other, one brown, one blue, pitifully standing deep in the park's woods.
