The narrator tells us that his family moved to Tokyo when he was 12 and his sister was 15. The main reason was that his grandmother did not get along well with her sister's head of the household. The narrator says that he is grateful for the attention he receives from his teacher. He tells his teacher that he bakes with a full scale kiln instead of using an electric kiln. He also says that his grand mother showed up at his school with an attorney and that she alienated his father even more. He apologizes for his treatment of his sister and says he is sorry for what he has done to her. He adds that he has agreed to pay her a large sum of money and to apologize from his parents. He says that even though he used to practice karate at his grandmother's request, he does not use it anymore. He asks his teacher to introduce him to boxing.
