"Detective! Night Scoop" (ABC TV, Friday 11:17 PM) is a popular variety show in which "detectives" tackle viewers' unexpected requests and worries. On February 20th, detective Katsura Futaba investigated a "three-year-old boy in love with a coffee shop owner." Actor and entertainer DAIGO made his debut on the show as the special director. Assistant Director Tamura Yutaka and secretary Masuda Saori also appeared.
The request came from a 32-year-old woman in Hokkaido, asking about her 3-year-old daughter's "first love."
My daughter has a favorite coffee shop that she has been going to since she was 7 months old. She is very fond of the owner of the shop. Whenever she goes to the shop, she always orders a ham and cheese sandwich.
The sandwiches the owner makes seem to be the most delicious in the world to my daughter. Recently, she looks embarrassed when talking about him, and on the way to the store she shyly murmurs, "I'm so excited to meet the owner." From a parent's perspective, this is clearly my daughter's first love.
However, due to her husband's job transfer, the woman will be moving to Nagoya. She has no plans to live in Sapporo anymore, and will have to say goodbye to her beloved master. Before saying goodbye, her daughter has something she wants to do, so she asked if she could help out.
Before saying goodbye, Kohaku, the girl in love, says she wants to make a sandwich. She also says that today she will confess her love for him. However, when she arrives at the store, she is completely unable to speak. The owner calls her the "idol of the store," but reveals that his eldest daughter died when she was about the same age as Kohaku. Kohaku is also a "treasure" to the owner. He is meant to support her feelings, but what really heals his heart is...
