Among the early wave of foreigners coming to Sapporo around 1990, Tamaki met a handsome college student from New York. Leonard Maxime Francois was Haitian by birth and one of only a handful of black men in all of Hokkaido. The two started dating, keeping their relationship secret from her parents for several years. Tamaki says that when she was in her early 20s, her father wanted to talk about omiai, the matchmaking process that would lead to her arranged marriage. The truth then spilled out: Tamaki was already seeing someone ? a foreigner who also happened to be black. Her father erupted in outrage, excoriating her for bringing disgrace on the family.
1990年ごろ、札幌に来る外国人の初期の波の中で、タマキはハンサム(外見?利口な?)なニューヨークの大学生に出会った。 Leonard Maxime Francoisは、ハイチ人として生まれ、北海道全土でほんの一握りの黒人男性の一人だった。 2人はデートを開始したが、彼らの関係は数年間親に秘密だった。 タマキは言った、彼女は20代前半の頃、 父親はお見合い、つまり整えられた結婚を導く結婚仲介のプロセス、の話をしたがったと。 それから真実が漏れた。すなわち、タマキはすでに誰か?外国人と付き合っていた、しかもそれはたまたま黒人だった。 彼女の父は怒り狂って、家族に恥(不名誉)をもたらすと彼女を激しく非難した。 0099名無しさん@エースをねらえ!2018/09/14(金) 11:20:07.84ID:2ySvPwIQ 続き
The couple moved south to Osaka, where both Tamaki and Francois, whose Japanese was improving, found work. For more than a decade, Tamaki would have virtually no contact with her family. (Tamaki’s father could not be reached for comment.)

The family moved to southern Florida in 2006 to focus on tennis full time. As other children went off on the school bus, the sisters trained most of the day on the Pembroke Pines public courts and were home-schooled at night. The girls grew in strength and talent, and in time, Tamaki decided they should meet their Japanese family, from whom she had been largely estranged for nearly 15 years. And so, when Naomi was about 11, she and her sister visited their grandparents in Japan. It wasn’t as joyful a homecoming as Tamaki might have hoped. Her parents took an interest in the girls, she says, but ridiculed their regime of home schooling and tennis training. Tennis was a hobby, they grumbled, not a profession. 0107名無しさん@エースをねらえ!2018/09/14(金) 12:23:58.27ID:3A/Bocil 子供の才能を信じて無茶してる親なんて数多にいるんだろうな。 シャラポワの自伝読んだけど壮絶だったな。 0108名無しさん@エースをねらえ!2018/09/14(金) 12:49:27.99ID:2ySvPwIQ The family moved to southern Florida in 2006 to focus on tennis full time.
