*******Part 1*******

**Pg. 7**

Yoshiki: Kasumi, why...? I'm not going to believe it.

Kasumi's words: "Noooo! Nooooo! Noooo!!!"

**Pg. 8**

Kasumi's words: "Andou-san. Andou-san...!"

Ren's words: "It's alright, Kasumi"

Yoshiki: I won't believe it...!

**Pg. 9**

Kasumi's thoughts: My heart is going to break...this time it's going to break. I wonder why Yoshiki came to New York. Why?

**Pg. 10**

Ren: Oh, good.  It's healing. If this keeps up, you won't have a scar from it. You're feelings had a rough time?

Kasumi: Oh...no...

Ren: You're brother...

//biku// [Kasumi perks]

**Pg. 11**

Ren: I'm glad your brother didn't see this. If a guy were to see this big bandage on a wrist, they would think it's too much of a burden on them. But, he probably would've never thought in his dreams that someone would cut their wrist because of him.

//dokun// [Kasumi's heart thumps]

Yoshiki's words: "I'm fed up"

**Pg. 12**

Ren: But, you're okay. By the time this wound heals nicely, you'll forget about all the bad things. Nice, calm days are awaiting for the 3 of us. Me, you, and Yuka.

**Pg. 13**

Ren: Aren't you hungry? I'll order some pizza.

Yoshiki's words: "Kasumi"

Kasumi's thoughts: Why?

**Pg. 14**

Kasumi's thoughts: My feelings are this frozen, but I feel like I'm burnt in the place where Yoshiki touched me. It's hot.

**Pg. 15**

Kasumi's thoughts: The fingers might as well be imprinted on me. Yoshiki's mark that will never disappear....

**Pg. 16**

Kasumi's mom: Yoshiki!? I'm suprised...you came to New York!? If you're going to come, you should at least let me know...

//gachya// [Yoshiki opens door]

Kasumi's mom: Yoshiki!?

//don// [Yoshiki slams door open]

**Pg. 17**

Yoshiki: Kasumi!

//ban gata ban// [Yoshiki fumbling through everything in the house]

Kasumi's mom: Yoshiki, stop it.

Yoshiki: Kasumi!

Kasumi's mom: Yoshiki!

**Pg. 18**

Kasumi's mom: Kasumi isn't here. It's not a lie.

**Pg. 19**

Kasumi's mom: Ren just called me saying that Kasumi's going to live with him starting today.

Yoshiki: What!? All of a sudden...? You forgave that even though you're her mother!?

Kasumi's mom: I forgave that because I'm the mother! Ren is very level-headed. I can leave Kasumi with him comfortably. So, Yoshiki, you too...

**Pg. 20**

Kasumi's mom: Go back to Japan at ease. I'm not going to tell you Ren's address. Even if you try to scare me or kill me....Yoshiki, wait!

**Pg. 21**

Kasumi's mom: Why did this happen...!?

**Pg. 22**

Kasumi's mom: You have a wonderful person like Kyoko-san. I can't believe this! Since when? You guys were apart for 15 years. And on top of that, why is it you two!? Are you planning on staying this way forever? Why...?

**Pg. 23**

Yoshiki: I thank you. If you didn't exist, I wouldn't have met Kasumi...I wouldn't have met my sister...

Kasumi's mom:  I'm telling you that that's wrong!

**Pg. 24**

Kasumi's mom: I shouldn't have gave birth to you guys.

**Pg. 25**

//ban// [Yoshiki slams wall]

Yoshiki: That's right...it's not too late now, so forget.

**Pg. 26**

Yoshiki: You never had kids in the first place. Good bye.

**Pg. 27**

//batan// [door shuts]

**Pg. 28**

Yoshiki: That's right. There was only the 2 of us to begin with. We only saw each other since we were born...

**Pg. 29**

Man: Ren! A message for you from downstairs. There's a girl named Kasumi...

**Pg. 30**

Ren: Kasumi...you've gotten so big in just half a day.

Yoshiki: Shut up.

Ren: I thought it was funny that Kasumi wanted to have lunch with me. I should've known.

**Pg. 31**

Ren: It's faster than looking around the whole company, right? You better buy my lunch since you tricked me.

Yoshiki:  Is Kasumi really at your place?

Ren: You don't have the right attitude asking people questions. Oh, that's right. Your father raised you. Here...this is my address. You won't believe anything I say, right? Then, go see her and talk to her in person.

**Pg. 32**

Yoshiki: It's really true that you're with Kasumi...?

Ren: But! If Yuka finds out, I'll be fired, so keep it a secret. It's not that I accepted you two either...but to tell you the truth, I think she might feel better if she sees you...watching the Kasumi now makes me sad too.

**Pg. 33**

Ren: Come over tonight at 8. I'll tell Kasumi too.

//pashya// [water splashing in bath tub]

**Pg. 34**

Ren: You don't look alike at all.

Kasumi: Andou-san....?

Ren: I'm wondering if you guys are really siblings.

Kasumi: I don't know how many times I wished that, but unfortunately, we're siblings.

Ren: Hmmmm....

**Pg. 35**

Ren: But, on the other hand, maybe that was what was bad. If you guys looked alike, you'd go back to yourself thinking that it was weird.

Kasumi:  Is it really weird...? Is it really that weird?

**Pg. 36**

Kasumi:  I just love him. That's really it. Is it really that weird?

**Pg. 37**

Kasumi: I didn't know anything with all the other guys I dated....

Kasumi's thoughts: Noone taught me...

Kasumi: Just thinking about him brings tears. The controlling happiness. The sweetness that makes my bones melt. The starvation.

Kasumi's thoughts: Those feelings. That sensation.

**Pg. 38**

Kasumi: Our bodies are so embraced with one another that I don't which is my own. Everything is towards my own little brother...!

Kasumi's thoughts: I wish I could've really became crazy in those arms.

**Pg. 39**

Kasumi's thoughts: That way...

Kasumi: But...hey, Andou-san. He said, "I'm fed up". Geez....

Kasumi's thoughts: I didn't understand the meaning even when I heard those words.

**Pg. 40**

//zaaaa// [waves crashing]

Kasumi's thoughts: Yoshiki threw me away.

Kasumi: I don't have a place to go anymore....1

**Pg. 41**

Ren: You don't have to think about anything. Put a lid on all your thoughts and close your eyes. Just listen to my voice. Don't say such sad things like you don't have anywhere to go.

//pashya zapa// [water splashing]

**Pg. 42**

Ren: I'm here. I'm here...

Kasumi's thoughts: It's getting white...

**Pg. 43**

Kasumi's thoughts: As if the steam was clouding my head. And my tired feelings.

Kasumi: N...

//pashya// [water splashing]

Kasumi's thoughts: Is the blood rushing to my head because this is the bath tub, or...

Kasumi: Ha...

**Pg. 44**

Kasumi's thoughts: Because I'm in someone else's arms...?

Kasumi: Ah...!

Ren: Hey, believe in me.

**Pg. 45**

Ren: Your happiness is Yuka's happiness. That's why I'm going to take everything of me and make you happy.

Kasumi. Ah....

Ren: That's why I'm going to take my entire life and not make you cry or not hurt you. I can vow that.

**Pg. 46**

Kasumi: Forever....?

Ren: Of course. Forever and ever...

//pashya// [water splashes]

Kasumi: Oh...Andou-san...

**Pg. 47**

Ren: Call me Ren. I'll take good care of you forever. Really.

//pashyan// [water splashing]

Kasumi: Oh! Ren...

**Pg. 48**

Kasumi: Ren. Let's get married...

//gatan// [door opens]

**Pg. 50**

Ren's words: "Come over at 8 tonight"

**Pg. 51**

Kasumi's words: "Ren"

**Pg. 52**

Kasumi words: "Let's get married"

Kasumi: Yoshiki...?

//dokun dokun dokun// [Kasumi's heart beating madly]

Kasumi: Why...?

**Pg. 53**

Kasumi: No...no way...

Kasumi's thoughts: Why is Yoshiki here?

//dokun dokun// [Kasumi's hert beating madly]

Kasumi: No. Nooo!

Kasumi's thoughts: God...

**Pg. 54**

Kasumi: Don't look...

Kasumi's thoughts: Please make me disappear right now.

Kasumi: Don't look at me!

**Pg. 55**

Yoshiki: You really do...

**Pg. 56**

Yoshiki: Go to anyone.

**Pg. 57**

//gata gachya// [Yoshiki gets out]

**Pg. 58**

//batan// [Yoshiki shuts door]

Ren: Kasumi. You're shaking...are you okay?

**Pg. 59**

Kasumi: I'm cold...

**Pg. 60**

Kasumi: How did Yoshiki know I'm here...?

Ren: I don't know. Maybe he asked Yuka.

Yoshiki: Kasumi...why...?

Kasumi: Andou-san...

Ren: It's "Ren".

Kasumi: Ren...

**Pg. 61**

Kasumi: It can just be a form...let's get married right away.

**Pg. 62**

Kasumi's thoughts:  This was supposed to be the future I was going to see withYoshiki. The time we were supposed to walk together.

Yoshiki's words: "Let's go somewhere where there's nothing but the 2 of us"

**Pg. 63**

Yoshiki: We said that together, didn't we!? Why...!?

Kasumi's thoughts: I know it's a falsehood, but I cling onto it.

**Pg. 64**

Kasumi's thoughts: I'm commited to losing the future with Yoshiki. It's even more of a foolish move than accepting my little brother...

*******Part 2*******

**Pg. 66**

Ren: Yes. She says that she doesn't care if it's just a form. She wants to get married right away. Even next week. I thought I'd talk it over with you first. Is it better the sooner we get married? No, if that's what you want, then...

Kasumi's mom: Wait, Ren. I'm really thankful...thank you.

**Pg. 67**

Ren: You don't have to thank me. Don't worry about it. Good night.

{Ren looks at Kasumi sleeping}

Ren:  I'm a stranger, but...

**Pg. 68**

Ren: But I can't even tell my feelings to the one I love. But you guys cuddle with each other even when it's a relationship that's prohibited. How can you guys accept each other? I'm passed the envy...

**Pg. 69**

Ren: I might as well hate you....

**Pg. 70**

Kyoko: Sister!

Kasumi: Kyoko-san...you came.

Kyoko: Your mother called me.

Kasumi: I bet you were suprised. There's no attendants and I didn't even have time to get a wedding dress.

Kyoko: Where's...Yoshiki?

Kasumi: I don't want to see him.

**Pg. 71**

Kasumi: Yoshiki told me that he doesn't want me.

Kyoko: What...?

Kasumi: That's why I haven't told him about today.

Ren: The priest is here, so we should go soon...

Kasumi: Okay. Mom, let's go.

Kasumi's mom: You look very pretty, Kasumi.

**Pg. 71**

Kasumi's mom: I'm really...really happy. It's a dream that a day like this has come.

**Pg. 72**

Kasumi's thoughts: That'll be trouble if it's a dream. I want to hurry...1 minute, even 1 second faster. Hurry and make Yoshiki my little brother. Making love a form. Watching that harsh appearance. I want to think of him as a brother and not a man.

**Pg. 73**

Kasumi's thoughts: That he's not a man, but my brother...

**Pg. 74**

//ban// [someone opens door]

**Pg. 75**

Yoshiki: Kasumi!

**Pg. 76**

Kasumi: Yo...?

Ren: Yoshiki-kun...!?

Kasumi's mom: How'd you know!?

**Pg. 77**

//dokun dokun// [Kasumi's heart beating]

Kasumi's mom:  Yoshiki, you better wait...

Yoshiki: You better talk to me, Kasumi!

Kasumi: What's there to talk about? What? Why do you appear in front of me now?

**Pg. 78**

Kasumi: This is enough! You don't want me, right!? You're the one who said that I go to any man! Why did you come here!?

**Pg. 79**

Kasumi: Why...!?....But I hate myself for not wanting anyone else but you.

**Pg. 80**

Kasumi: This is enough, isn't it? Please forgive me. Don't make me any more crazier than this.

Yoshiki: My fault? Then you can be as crazy as you can be.

**Pg. 81**

Yoshiki: I wouldn't fall in love with you without being prepared to go crazy!

**Pg. 82**

//gata// [Kasumi's mom falls to chair]

Kyoko: Mother...!

Ren: Yuka...!

Kasumi: You're...lying. Because you're the one who told me...on the phone that you're fed up! You said that you were fed up with me!

**Pg. 83**

Yoshiki: I'm so fed up with myself because...

**Pg. 84**

Yoshiki: I'm so in love with you.

**Pg. 88**

Kasumi's thoughts: This isn't a dream? If this is a dream, noone wake me up. If this isn't a dream...

**Pg. 89**

Kasumi's thoughts: If this isn't a dream...

**Pg. 90**

Kasumi's thoughts: I don't care if I stop breathing.

**Pg. 91**

Police: STOP!! You better stay quiet! If you have something to say, we'll listen at the station!

Yoshiki: What are you doing!?

**Pg. 92**

//gachyan// [Yoshiki gets handcuffed]

Kasumi's mom: What...?

Kasumi: Stop..!

**Pg. 93**

Ren: I'm glad. I let the police know that a stalker might come and intrude the wedding.

Kasumi and Yoshiki: What...!?

**Pg. 94**

Police:  Come on, let's go!

Yoshiki: Shit...! Let me go!

Kasumi: Wait! This is a mistake!

Kasumi's thoughts: Our feelings just...

Kasumi: Don't take Yoshiki away! Noooo!

**Pg. 95**

Yoshiki: Kasumi!

Kasumi's thoughts: We just got to understand each other's feelings...!

Kasumi: Nooooo!
