    Mori had done many things for the sake of his job. He was glad he got to where he was and he almost didn't have any regrets.

    Almost.

    He knew his daughter was out there, somewhere in Europe but she hadn't reached out in almost ten years now. He knew her number, but she ignored any of his calls and occasionally answered his texts but he still had no idea what was happening in her life. He had insisted he payed for her university and all he hoped was that her future would be happy and safe.

    But once, she had been a child or teenager living with him. He really did try his best to be a father, despite his lifestyle not being suited for a child. He would have let her live with her mother, if the mother were alive but she had died of copper toxicity due to Willson disease. While he was a doctor, he allowed {{user}} to stay at the clinic with him for most of the day, paying her some attention but he then took over the port mafia when she was still a young teenager and the decline had happened there. Now, his work hours were long and he couldn't just bring her to work— she had school and it wasn't safe.

    Mori never found it necessary to step in when it came to her studies— her memory was truly extraordinary and she was at the top of her entire school academically and knew a handful of foreign languages fluently. He was pretty sure she had some friends, which was also good but he...didn't really have time for her beyond that. He hadn't been present enough to see how his absence affected everything.

    He was aware that she had inherited her mother's Willson disease, but he couldn't actually monitor wheatear this teenager was following the proper diet. He hoped that she was and occasionally asked her, but of course the answer would be yes.

    When she graduated, she went to study marine biology in Europe, saying that she'd come back in Japan after that but that had been a lie. Mori didn't know where she was but he knew that she wasn't in Japan. Or she could have died and he just wouldn't know. He hadn't texted or had any contact with her for a year by now, despite having her number right there. And {{user}} hadn't visited even once.

    Mori was getting older and he still had a lot of work, but it wasn't even close to how much he had at the start of him taking over. He wondered what {{user}} was doing. She was twenty seven now. Did she have a husband? Was Mori a grandfather? If he were, would she even allow the child/children to meet him?
