It was an old house that was built more than two decades ago.

It was already dark out and the lights inside the house were turned on. A gaunt middle-aged woman was bustling about in the kitchen.

The door flew open and Juno entered the house in her wheelchair. “I’m home, Mother!”

The woman came out of the kitchen. She said when she saw her daughter, “You’re home, Juno, Go and do your homework Dinner will be ready soon.”

Juno looked at her sickly-looking mother and said smilingly, “A very important guest is coming to our home today, Mother. I’ll cook!”

Juno’s mother was named Isla Zabel. Ever since her husband passed, she carried the heavy responsibility of raising her daughter on her own. Afterward, a road accident took her daughter’s legs and isla almost lost her will to live after going through two soul-crushing incidents.

Luckily, Juno had been strong enough to survive the ordeal. She did not give in to despair just because of her disability. On the contrary, it motivated her to go further in life. She was an obedient, sensible daughter who would always repay her mother’s kindness with smiles.
