The son -- The nameless child -- The father -- The valentine.

"Tucked within a small back alley in Tokyo is a cafe that has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. The regular patrons know the cafe's legend by heart: if they follow the rules, they'll be allowed the unique opportunity to travel back in time-as long as they return to the present before their coffee gets cold.
In the next novel in the sensational Before the Coffee Gets Cold Series, the mysterious Tokyo cafe welcomes four new guests: a father who could not allow his daughter to get married, a woman who couldn't give Valentine's Day chocolates to her loved one, a boy who wants to share his smile
with his divorced parents, and a wife holding a child with no name.
Another moving and heartwarming tale from Toshikazu Kawaguchi, in Before We Forget Kindness, our new visitors wish to go back into their past to find closure and comfort so they can embark on a beautiful future."-- Cover.
