Capítulo 200: Chapter 200 - A Day of Grief And Gratitude[Bonus Chapter]

"Mom, you shouldn't stress your body, go to bed," Haruki murmured, standing by his mother as she admired the rain by their porch. 

Yet, her gaze remained unmoved, but her hand reached for the small table right beside her wooden chair. Finally turning her eyes to her son, the withered woman gave him the faintest of smiles. However, seeing the sunken eyes of her mother, and the light fleeing from her eyes, Haruki couldn't bring himself to return her with the same.

"Here, sit down and play with me," grabbing a pawn from the chess board on the table, his mother urged him to play, but despite the rain, he had to go and tend to the fields.

"I can't, the monsters come out in rain to ruin crops since nobody's out there when it's pouring so heavily," saying that he tried to move past his mother, but grabbing him by her sickly arms, she stopped him from taking a single foot further.
