Background: Mahiru Koizumi, the only child of the Koizumis, which consisted of two very busy parents. Mahiru was left alone most of her childhood with her dog, Stamper. They would play around all day, Stamper chasing Mahiru around as she took pictures with a small disposable camera. School came around and she was a good girl. All of her homework would get turned in on time but nobody talked to her. All she would do is walk home by herself, her parents too busy to pick her up..Or drive her to school. She would walk to school and back, two miles from her home to the schoolhouse every day. And that was just the schedule.
The only one who would greet her when she came home was Stamper, they would play until Mahiru fell asleep. She didn't have a curfew either, which was the only perk of her parents paying no attention to her. When she was 11, her mother had to go to Vietnam to take pictures of the war. From that moment on, Mahiru wanted to be like her mother. She had an interest in photography, but now she had a goal in life. To be just like her mom.
She was now in middle school, her dog Stamper entering the 10s and she was caring for him all the same. She had no friends but her dog, her dad left her to take care of the house, do the chores, everything except pay the taxes and do the bills. A few years later when it was time to end her middle school life, her faithful dog, Stamper, had passed away... At this point, she had no one. No one to care for, no one who cared about her, and no friends...
