May is the main character. She is the second child and first daughter of Ernest and Grace. She was born without both her legs and feet. She will appear as a baby, a fourteen year-old and an eighteen year-old in the story.
Grace is May's mother, who, because of the Republic of China's one-child policy, tried to induce miscarriage during her pregnancy with abortion pills at the cost of her baby's both legs and feet.
Ernest is the head of the family. He showed little concern for May and the rest of the family. His only concern is the eldest child and only son Ray.
Ray is May's elder brother. He brought May to the airport before she left for the Philippines.
Jade is Ernest's mother who secretly took concern for May. She signed up May for scholarships abroad and found one in a boarding school in the Philippines.
Sir Dick teaches piano at the boarding school. He took a certain interest in May's determination to succeed despite her insecurities and fears.
