My mother worked as a servant in a Zen monastery, so I have essentially been one since birth. I’ve never attended school and have never ventured beyond the confines of the Zen monastery. The everyday experiences my peers take for granted are novel and bring me lasting joy. I envy other girls for their typical adolescent relationships, adeptness with modern technology, and the simple pleasure of going shopping or enjoying milk tea together after school. I aspire to be like them, but I find myself confined within the Zen monastery’s constraints. I yearn to live freely and break free from this place, no matter the effort required. Everything changed when Master Naoya selected me as his attendant, bringing me to Kyoto School and eventually traveling to Tokyo for a participation in an exchange competition. I finally took advantage of the opportunity.
