After 4 years Yumi finally came back to her own country.She decided to move back to her own city and open her own company as her parents were also pestering her to come back and live with them.She is a famous designer but nobody saw her face till date.She do not want to expose her face and identity to public as she didn't want unnecessary people attention and criticism she believed that her work should be admirable and praise worthy rather than her name or fame.She wanted to have a quiet and peaceful life like everyone else and as her family background was already well renowned so it was hard for her and her family to have privacy and with that kind of life she didn't wanted to add more onto that so she hide her profile as designer and did all the works by hiding for all those years.
yumi was only 18 when she left.She went to foreign country to study fashion designing.she was intrested in fashion since she was a child so later on she decided to pursue it as her carrer.In between these years She travelled to different other countries.She always thought that whatever she does she should fully devote herself onto that only then her outcome will be good.Everytime she travelled she would get inspired and create a masterpiece.She would only make one or two within a year whether its ornaments,shoes or dress it would be so unique never seen before kind like thing.Without rushing she always took time and worked patiently to complete her art.At first she was only into dress and design but as she travelled she saw different people wearing different things so later she was also into ornaments,shoes and all.
In these 4 years she was more mature and calm.Whatever she is today is because of her hardwork she didn't ask anyone help though she is rich she never asked money from her parents rather she worked hard ,did many jobs and earned money with which she paid college fees and made a living.She wanted to live on her own without depending on other she took all this hardship as oppourtunities to learn something.
Since her childhood as being only daughter of her family she was always pampered and loved.Her family never lacked on anything she ever asked for.But yumi was different from the rest she wanted to be the best version of herself.She wanted to become someone with whom her family can be proud of or she herself can be proud of but without her family money or identity.
Her family were always understanding and suportive to her every decision and let her do whatever she wanted.But also her family would always worry about her.They knew her behaviour She won't ask for help even if she is struggling , has problem or the situation is worst rather she will try to fix problems herself no matter how much pain she has to endure.She won't let anyone else suffer because of her.As parents they feared that what if people try to harm her and most of all what if she could not meet her own expectation
what if she could not find the answer she is looking for.
Yumi parents were already proud of her Since child to now she never troubled them she was good in her studies,she was always kind, polite and understanding.She always listened to her parents no matter what So when she told her family that she would like to go abroad for her further studies and would like to keep her profile low her family agreed and believed on her blindly and let her do whatever she wanted to.Yumi's family they somewhat knew that no matter what problems come to her she will face it bravely.

He was very satisfied of the fact that whatever he is doing is making her stronger day by day even though he was strict and cold to her he never treated her bad and never let her feel she was less than anyone even if she is girl according to perception of society he made sure that she never let her doubt herself being a girl is less. He always encouraged her to do good,set an example for other, stay true to what she believed and never let other control her emotion or life.He would always remind her People will judge her no matter what so it's better to ignore what they say.
His every friend or business partner had grandsons and he didn't have one but it never bothered him or he felt sad about not having one .He always took yumi as his pride and lucky charm.He never thought she was less .He was very proud of her granddaughter.He loved her dearly but never showed where as yumi grandmother(lily)was totally opposite she was very loving and emotional.when yumi came back she was the most happiest person.
