Tabiji Mother And Child Traveling Together Mio Saionji

Mio, who divorced her husband before her child was old enough to form memories, worked frantically to forget her sadness. She took a long-awaited vacation and came to a hot spring inn. There, she was served by a young man working at the inn. At first, she chatted, thinking he was a cheerful youth, but the pendant he wore was the same as the one Mio had given her son at their parting. She became convinced the young man was her son. Mio learned from him that his father had run away in the night, leaving behind debts, and that the son, as the guarantor, worked at the inn from morning till night.
