Lemon no Himegoto Manhua

In the bustling city of Tokyo, Aika's heart fluttered with excitement as she carefully placed the last lemon tart on the display shelf. Her passion for baking had blossomed under Mr. Suzuki's guidance, and the little bakery had become a haven where she could express herself through her pastries. However, a dark cloud loomed over Aika's newfound happiness. Her family's disapproval weighed heavy on her shoulders, casting doubt on her dreams of opening her own bakery. The thought of disappointing her parents tore at her heart, but she knew she couldn't ignore the fire that burned within her. One rainy evening, as the scent of freshly baked bread filled the air, a familiar face walked through the bakery doors. It was her father, his expression a mix of surprise and curiosity. Aika's heart raced as she nervously awaited his reaction. To her astonishment, her father's stern facade softened as he savored a bite of her lemon tart. A moment of silence hung between them before he spoke, his voice filled with a rare tenderness. "I never knew you had such a gift, Aika. I can see the passion in your eyes, just like when I first started our family business." Tears welled up in Aika's eyes as she listened to her father's words of encouragement. In that moment, she realized that their shared love for creating something special bound them together more than she had ever imagined. With her father's blessing, Aika felt a newfound sense of determination and purpose. As the rain pattered against the windows, Aika made a silent vow to pursue her dreams with unwavering courage. And as she gazed out into the night sky, she knew that this was only the beginning of her sweet journey towards self-acceptance and love.
