Kyoko: If you marry me.

Pg. 20

Yoshiki: …How many times do I have to tell you!

Yoshiki: What’s so great about marrying someone who doesn’t love you!?

Kyoko: …That’s what my future is about.

Pg. 32

Kyoko: …Wait a second! Where are you going!?

//katsun katsun// [Yoshiki walking away on crutches]

Kyoko: Why!?

Pg. 33

Pg. 40

Yoshiki: I can almost get my passport. I will be there soon.

Yoshiki: I’m sorry I can only tell you this…

Kasumi: That’s okay…hey, Yoshiki.

Yoshiki: Yeah?

Kasumi’s thoughts: How far along did you listen on the phone?

Kasumi’s thoughts: Did you hear that I’m not married to Andou-san?

Kasumi’s thoughts: I’m so happy and I want to talk to him, but what about before that?

Pg. 41

Kasumi’s thoughts: Where’s my voice…?

Kasumi: After the phone hung up…

Kasumi: I kicked Andou-san with all my strength.

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

Pg. 53

Ren: Kasumi!

//kon kon// [knock knock]

Ren: I brought your some breakfast.

Ren: It’s all your favorites.

Ren: Café au lait, half-cooked, sunny-side-up fried eggs, and ?????

Ren: You didn’t eat yesterday either. If you don’t build physical strength, you won’t be able to have a healthy baby, you know? I guess I’m thinking too far ahead.

Ren: Hm? Are you upset?

Ren: You lost consciousness in the middle of it…didn’t it feel good?

Kasumi: You’re awful.

Pg. 54

Kasumi: If you keep on doing this…!

//gari// [bite]

Ren: You’re so cute.

//gui// [grab]

Kasumi: Ow!

Ren: “If this goes on”…what?

Ren: You’re going to commit suicide or something? You’re making me laugh.

Pg. 55

Ren: No matter how badly you’re treated, you will never throw away your shameless self because you’re loved by Yoshiki-kun.

Ren: He was really mad the other day on the phone, but…

Ren: Do you think he’ll really come to get you after he listened to that turned-on voice of yours?

Ren: If it’s a girl he loves, I doubt he’ll come.

Kasumi: …that it…?

Pg. 56

Kasumi: Is that all you want to say?

Kasumi: Then get off me. You’re heavy.

Ren: Anyway, you should eat. It’ll be boring if you lose any more meat than this.

Kasumi’s thoughts: Truthfully…

Pg. 57

Kasumi’s thoughts: Andou-san might be right. Yoshiki might not come anymore.

Kasumi’s thoughts: The woman that left him was having sex with another man.

Pg. 58

Kasumi’s thoughts: If I were Yoshiki, I wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Kasumi’s thoughts: I wonder if this is a punishment.

Pg. 59

Kasumi’s thoughts: I flustered Yoshiki around to my own liking, so maybe I’m the one that got dumped…

//pinpoon// [doorbell]

Pg. 60

Kasumi: Yoshi…ki?

Pg. 61

Ren: Can’t be….

Kasumi’s mom: Kasumi!

Pg. 63

Kasumi’s mom: I was so worried about you that I pushed the main office to bring me back here.

Kasumi’s mom: Kasumi…were you in the middle of changing? Your appearance…

Yoshiki’s words: “You used him and Kasumi had to go through that…”

Pg. 64

Kasumi’s mom: I’ll be with you all the time from now on. I’ll work hard for your happiness.

Kasumi: ȂReally? That makes me happy.

Pg. 65

Kasumi: Then…

Kasumi: Can you bring Yoshiki?

Kasumi: If you want to make me happy, I just want to be alone with him.

Pg. 66

Kasumi’s thoughts: I thought I was going to heaven from hell, but again…

Kasumi: If you can’t do that, then please leave me alone…!

Pg. 67

Kasumi’s thoughts: It wasn’t Yoshiki.

Kasumi’s thoughts: It wasn’t Yoshiki…!

Ren: Yuka…I’ll take you to work in my car.

Pg. 68

Kasumi’s mom: But…

//gachya// [Ren opens door]

Ren: Let’s just get outside for now.

Kasumi’s thoughts: How long must I have go on with this hope and desire?

Kasumi: You know what? I never married anyone. I’m still a Suzumura.

Kasumi: I want to tell him.

Pg. 69

Kasumi’s mom: My head and heart is about to break.

Pg. 70

//burororooo// [vroom]

//haaa// [sigh]

Ren: You and Kasumi don’t look alike on the outside, but I can tell that you’re related.

Ren: You choose to be a woman instead of a parent.

Ren: Just like you having the attachment to Kasumi, who looks just like your late husband…

Ren: Kasumi is just like you to choose her womanhood and love her brother.

Pg. 71

Kasumi’s mom: …Ren?

Kasumi’s mom: Ren…about you calling me in New York….

Ren’s words: “There was no room for me to begin with!”

Kasumi’s mom: Do you…

Ren: Love.

//kiii// [brakes]

Pg. 72

Ren: I love Kasumi.

//buroooo// [vroooom]

Ren: I won’t love her to the point where I will take her away from you, so…

Ren: Can you give Kasumi and I your blessing?

Pg. 73

//katan gachya gachya// [door opening]

//biku// [perk]

Pg. 74

Ren: I’m home Kasumi.

Ren: Let’s go out and eat today since Yuka’s here too.

Kasumi: I’m not going…

Ren: Don’t tell me that you have hopes of Yoshiki-kun coming here. Of course he’s not coming after hearing that phone call.

Kasumi: I’m not going.

Ren: Fine. Then…do you want me to do you right now with the possibility of Yoshiki-kun seeing?

//biku// [perk]

Pg. 75

Ren: I don’t care either way.

Ren: Now get ready, okay?

Kasumi’s thoughts: The truth is…I might’ve used Andou-san’s threat as a way to run away and get out of the house.

//bururu// [vroom]

//kiii// [brakes]

Pg. 76

Kasumi’s thoughts: So I can tell myself that Yoshiki probably came while I was gone even though I know that he won’t.

//katsun katsun// [footsteps with crutches]

Pg. 77

Ren: I’ll go after I park my car, so go on ahead in that elevator.

Ren: After the first floor, it’ll go directly up to the restaurant on the top floor.

//burooo// [vroom]

//pi// [beep]

Pg. 78

//uiiiin// [elevator moves up]

Yoshiki’s words: “…sumi…”

Yoshiki’s words: “Kasumi”

Yoshiki’s words: “I’ll be back no matter what”

Yoshiki’s words: “I’ll be there”

Pg. 79

Kasumi’s thoughts: Even if it’s pitiful, I want to wait for him.

//ban// [Kasumi pushes button]

//chin// [bell rings]

//gaaaa// [elevator door opens]

Pg. 82

//katsun// [Yoshiki walks toward elevator]

//gaaaaaa// [elevator door shuts]

Pg. 84

Kasumi: When did you get back…!?

Kasumi: Why…are you here?

Kasumi’s thoughts: Yoshiki.

Yoshiki: I just went to your house to see you and I thought I would never see you again…!

Kasumi’s thoughts: Yoshiki. Yoshiki.

Kasumi: It’s okay….!

Pg. 85

Yoshiki: I finally caught you…

Kasumi’s thoughts: It’s not a dream….

Kasumi’s thoughts: No…don’t stop anywhere.

Pg. 86

Kasumi’s thoughts: Everything just stop. The elevator. The time.

Pg. 87

Kasumi’s thoughts: I don’t even care if my heart stops…

Pg. 88

//chin// [elevator opens]

Kyoko: You’re late, Yoshiki.

Kyoko: You went out of your way to pick up your sister?

Kyoko: If you sit down like that, your suit that you ordered is going to get messy.

Pg. 89

Kyoko: I haven’t seen you in awhile.

Kyoko: Thank you for coming tonight, sister.

Kasumi: She’s right…why are you dressed like this, Yoshiki…?

Kyoko: We’re in a flurry since we just got back from New York, but we know the chef here, so we asked him to do this for us.

Yoshiki: Kasumi!

Pg. 90

(Sign reads: Yoshiki and Kyoko’s marriage party)

Kasumi: But I can’t!

Pg. 93

Kasumi: WHY!!!?

Kasumi’s thoughts: Because we’re siblings…

Ren: Kasumi, what are you getting loud about?

Yoshiki: …Andou…you…!

Pg. 94

Man: Mr. Suzumura, please come inside.

//ga// [grab]

Man 2: Everyone is waiting.

Ren: You’re not looking too good. Maybe we shouldn’t attend the party.

Ren: Yuka said that she can’t come either because of her workload.

//biku// [perk]

Kasumi: You knew about this to begin with…!?

Ren: Kyoko-chan gave us an invite from the airport.
