With the Light... Vol. 7

For most parents, their child's teenage years
are just as bad, if not worse, than the terrible twos. But for Sachiko
and Masato Azuma, the situation is further complicated by their son
Hikaru's autism. As puberty strikes, Hikaru's growing sexual awareness
creates uncomfortable and embarrassing situations, and begins to affect
his little sister, Kanon. The already-taxed Sachiko must find ways to
alleviate the situation, while being mindful of the effects her approach
may have on her children and on the people around them. But when Masato
is told he has to relocate again for work, the pressure is really on
Sachiko as the decision is made to move in with her mother-in-law, who
has always been less-than-accommodating to Hikaru's needs. With new
challenges arising daily - Hikaru tackling adolescence through the lens
of autism, Kanon struggling with peer pressure, Masato throwing himself
into the new job - will Sachiko, the Azuma family's rock, succumb to the
cracks that have begun to form in her generally cheerful outlook on
life?
