Summary

When Doctor Frances Ai's younger sister Maura died in a tragic accident six months ago, Frances swore she would bring her back to life. However, the creature that rises from the slab is clearly not Maura. In fact, this girl, who chooses the name "M," doesn't remember a single thing about Maura's life. Despite this, Frances expects M to pursue the same path that Maura had been on--applying to college to become a scientist--and continue the plans she and Maura shared. Hoping to trigger Maura's memories, Frances surrounds M with the trappings of Maura's past, but M wants nothing to do with Frances's attempts to change her into something she's not. In order to face the future, both Frances and M need to learn to listen to each other and let go of Maura once and for all
