This extremely outstanding manga...at the top of my list of manga. A young teen with a tragic and never forgetful past; she becomes a person who is afraid of men, due to the sexual abuse of the step-father; has nightmares and flashbacks and battles depression. She gets pregnant by him..causeing her body to change her mother notices and ask who was the father; she tells her step-father is, emotionally. Her mother then verbally assaults her..other events takes place cause her to have a miscarriage. Later to face reality due to a second pregnancy and begs her daughter for forgiveness. ( Of course there are other emotional events that are deeply attached to each other)

**This is a mature love story about a boy unintentional finds out her secret and finds himself wanting to be there for her, protect her and later comforts his feelings that he loves her. Unable to get close to her cause of her fear of men but due to the fact that she overhears him saying he does not see her a a girl she allows herself to be befriended by him.

I cant but feel that this might be someones story..but it possibly cannot be easy to watch your body grow with a baby who carries the DNA of your rapist. I would imagine doing so must be extremely painful and emotional for the people who go through this_
