That Broken Heart She Wore
5: include
Ruki's dream picture of a happy family doesn't include little siblings that would monopolise her parents or herself, and that's the only thing that's gone right with her family. Her mother can't have any more kids.
But Ruki's happy family picture doesn't involve a father who walks out on them and doesn't call until it's too late to forgive him. It doesn't include a mother so different to herself. It doesn't involve a grandmother who acts more like a mother than the mother does. It doesn't involve constant soft music and pretty things she can break by yelling too loud.
