Nikki-chan, Niko's going to be better someday.

Not any time soon, certainly not in time for the Love Live! that is coming up. But no more leaving the wheelchair for a while. Niko got some money from the prefecture to help with her school and her train and for a wheelchair. I think mama blames herself for Niko having to suffer her way to school alone. Mama used to be too proud to take money no matter what, but no longer. But the doctor said Niko should not be on crutches and now she needs to heal much longer. Niko can use them to go to the bathroom and move a little around the house. Also Kokoro is doing the housekeeping, though Niko is still cooking. The little kids hand Niko things now, and Mama or Kokoro do the shopping. Nozomi said she would stop by with things sometime. And the doctor said Niko won't be forever handicapped by all of this. But training in the future will need to be careful and use braces and such things. Niko used to be too proud to have Kokoro do the housekeeping, but no longer. A super-idol can overcome even being crippled for a while. Even for a year or more.
