I know my topic line is weird sorry, I didn't know how to phrase it.

I read this manga a long time ago, I think it was a collection of shojo one shots by the same author. In particular I'm looking for this one shot in the volume that takes place in historical Japan (so when Tokyo was still called Edo, although I'm not too sure what the time period is called).

It's about this little girl that gets lost when she attends a festival with her father and the city decides that for the time being she should live with the magistrate. She stays with them for a few days and they have a son who likes to bully her. After she starts getting used to living there, she accidentally overhears the magistrate and his wife saying that they have to do something about her and she gets scared thinking she will be abandoned and runs away. She ends up running into her father who takes her home where she finds out he actually had plans on selling her to pay for his new wife's lifestyle. She runs away from the buyers and runs into the magistrate and his son who had been looking for her and saved her from her dad. The magistrate ends up adopting her, which is the situation she had overheard. I think her name was Tama.

I really liked this manga and want to reread it but I can't find it anywhere 🙁 Can anyone help?

I've read this manga not too long ago so you're lucky. 😛
It's Edo Karuta...and to be more specific, it's the third story you gave the description of.

Thank you so much!!!!! 🙂
