"My friend's mom" - Mutsumi Toyokawa
After hearing from Kenta, her son's friend, that he had grown up not knowing his mother, Mutsumi (Mutsumi Toyokawa) gently told him, "You can think of me as your mother." Though she meant it as a simple, comforting remark, for Kenta—who had long harbored deep longing and fantasies about having a mother—it was a life-changing moment. What would a mother's warmth feel like? Overcome by the desire to experience that affection, Kenta could no longer resist. The next day, he resolved to visit Mutsumi's home.
