That's a very very difficult question...

"What has been the toughest moment in your life?"
"That will be the disaster in 2011... Yes, we're all from Miyagi. Our house was fine, but we lost many relatives. Even after the earthquake, I lost both my father and my father-in-law. That was about a year ago. Now my emotions have finally settled down, so we decided to visit Tokyo."

"This might be a wrong way to put it, but how did you move on from your experiences?"
"That's a very very difficult question..."

"...Then what made you come to Tokyo?"
"We have a daughter who's working here. We had a tough time after the earthquake, but who knows what she will have to go through if the same thing happened in such a big city like Tokyo. So we decided we should take a look at what kind of a place she's living, in case something happens."
