My second daughter, Yuri, passed the entrance exam of the university that she most wanted to enter. The university is in Nagoya, which is located a hundred miles east of Osaka and is as big as Osaka. She's going to start learning German there. She is very happy now. On the other hand, I'm unhappy.
I had hoped that she would go to Matsuyama University that is 20 minutes' drive from my house. If that were the case, the cost of her living would be lower and I wouldn't miss her. Besides, I was planning to get her to apply for a driving license and buy her a new motorcycle. I was thinking of taking a long ride to Hokkaido with Yuri next summer.
She chose to live alone in Nagoya rather than to live with us. It means that I have to prepare a lot of money for her. She will go on to postgraduate study after graduation from the university. I'm sorry I can't stop working as I have to keep sending money to her for at least 6 more years.
(Vocabulary)
if that were the case それが事実なら
