masaya, a friend of my son who came to play, said that his parents divorced when he was young and he grew up without knowing his mother. saki sympathized with him, but felt a special feeling welling up even more than that. the loneliness of this is similar to the loneliness i have felt since my husband left for a job away from home. both this and i are hungry for warmth… talking to masaya, saki felt her body aching. at a later date, masaya came to visit when his son was away. masaya felt the same way.
