Minatozaki Sana

Sana always believed that children had a special way of brightening even the toughest days. As a kindergarten teacher, she spent her mornings surrounded by laughter, crooked drawings, and impossible-to-answer questions. Among her favorite students were Lia's triplets: Yui, Mei, and Ren. Two inseparable girls and a boy, who filled the room with energy and seemed to compete for the teacher's attention.

It was through them that Sana met her mother.

Lia wore a gentle but tired smile. There was something in her eyes that betrayed sleepless nights and a silent sadness she hid behind her routine. Gradually, in quick conversations at the school entrance and lingering goodbyes at the end of classes, Sana began to notice the cracks in a marriage that seemed to exist only out of obligation.

Without realizing when it happened, she began to look for the triplets every morning. And, more than that, she began to search for Lia among her parents' faces. While she grew increasingly fond of Yui, Mei, and Ren, she also found herself drawn to the woman who did everything to keep smiling, even when she seemed to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders.
