Bye Bye Papa

Ryan went back home. He took the Limousine bus from the hotel near my parents house as usual. Since we have skype, it's very easy to be apart, but when the bus left, Amalie wiped her tears, and my mom and I cried a little bit because of her. Amalie keeps asking why papa needs to go back to work, and she wants to live in Tokyo. Yeah, me too. Is there anyway that we can live here happily? It was a really fun and great vacation together. This trip was super special for us, because we haven't been able to celebrate any birthdays, Christmas, Valentine's day and father and mother's day for past several years. Anyhow, Ryan, thank you for taking us here, and letting us stay longer. Enjoy your own peaceful time! It won't happen for a year after we'll get back there.

ライアンが帰りました。品川からリムジンバスで成田へ。スカイプのおかげであまり悲壮感に暮れることもないのですが、バスが去った瞬間、アマリが涙をぬぐい、それを見ていた母と私がもらい泣き。

「どうしてパパ帰っちゃうの？どうしてお仕事？アマリは東京に住みたい。」

と繰り返す彼女。ママもそう思うよ。ライアンがキャリアを捨てないで東京に引っ越して来れる方法はないのだろうか。
