             I had just started elementary school
             when my father jumped off the train,
  platform of the Yama-no-te line in Tokyo, ending his life.
           President of his own company, Tairiku,
       Industries, my father had been ousted from his
      position by his enemies and pursued to his death.
        To pay back our enormous debts, my mother
       went to work, pushing herself too far until
               she, too, collapsed and died.
  Eiichi was my brother, eight years above me. We were taken
 away from each other and passed around to our relatives to be
     raised. Eventually, we lost contact with each other.
                We had lost everything.
       Last summer, Eiichi showed up on my door again.
       He was twenty-five, but drove an expensive car.
          He had worked hard to get where he was.
      'I found the person responsible for father's death!'
                      he told me.
         According to my brother, a man who worked
            under my father named Shoji Okamura
    engineered my father's downfall from the beginning.
      'Now it's time to get revenge on the enemy of
               our family! Will you help me?
            'I'll do it!' I replied immediately.
      I started to collect information on Shoji Okamura.....
 My brother bought the house next to the Okamuras, and I moved
  in, pretending that my parents lived in America and I lived
  alone. I began to infiltrate the Okamura family.
    I pretended to be in love with the second daughter, Emi,
   and started going out with her. The oldest daughter, Yuki,
  helped me with my studies, while I helped Risa, the youngest
           This gave me a chance to bug the Okamura
          house, go through his trash, copy files off
         of the computer, and more. I reported it all
                  faithfully to my brother.
           One day, Shoji Okamura disappeared,
            leaving the three sisters alone.
   My brother wouldn't tell me what his plan was,so I was as
surprised as anyone when Shoji disappeared suddenly like that.
I was never sure if the information I was getting was helping
             Eiichi get his revenge or not.
             I was sure our revenge was over.
            But if so, why did I feel so guilty?
        Looking at stubborn Emi, crying like that,
        she'd lost her father, how could I be proud of
                      what I'd done?
         I realized I had fallen in love with Emi.
     Yuki quit school to work, to support the family.
Risa-chan seemed cheerful enough, but I knew it was all a lie:
            she cried and cried the night her father
                left the three sisters alone.
  We had ruined a happy family, Isuddenly realized in horror.
            But the tragedy of the Okamura family
                 was still just beginning...
