Part 1

Kasumi tries to escape from Ren, but Ren starts to choke her telling her that he doesn't care if she passes out or not. Kasumi gets scared and realizes that Ren is serious. Yoshiki is on the other line screaming for Ren to stop. Kasumi gives up her resistance as Ren starts to rape her. As Yoshiki is on the other line listening, Ren starts to tell him that Kasumi and he are not married, but Yoshiki doesn't hear the end of Ren's sentence because Kyoko hangs up the phone.

Yoshiki goes back to his room in a rage. Kyoko tells him that she can get him a passport if he will marry her. Yoshiki tells her that he will not marry her because he does not love her. Kyoko tells him that she doesn't care and that she only wants to be his wife because that's all she wanted her whole life. She goes on to tell him that she will never bother him and Kasumi ever again as long Yoshiki marries her. Yoshiki tells her to do whatever she wants.

Back in Japan, Kasumi is taking a cold bath. Ren comes in and takes her out telling her that he knew she was doing something stupid. He begins to rape her again telling her that he won't stop until he knows that she's pregnant. Kasumi wonders where Yoshiki is.

Kyoko cannot believe her ears. She hugs Yoshiki with tears of joy...but Yoshiki continues on telling her that she can do whatever she wants and to continue bothering him and Kasumi if she wants to. He tells her that he will never marry anyone. Yoshiki starts to leave as Kyoko calls after him. Yoshiki tells Kyoko that he will never understand Kyoko's hatred or pity because his feelings will only move for Kasumi. Kyoko is enraged and screams at him saying he will regret this.

In the hallway, Yuka (Kasumi's mom) catches up to Yoshiki and asks him if he has heard from Kasumi. Yoshiki is angry and asks her if she was the one who sent Ren to Japan. Yuka gets scared and asks Yoshiki if something happened to Kasumi. Yoshiki doesn't say anything.

Yoshiki calls Kasumi and she tells him that everything is alright. She lies to him telling him that she kicked Ren and nothing happened. Yoshiki knows that she is lying, but plays along with her lies. Kasumi cries on the other line.

After Yoshiki hangs up, Kyoko comes up to Yoshiki and tells him that if he doesn't marry her, she will hurt his dear sister, Kasumi. Yoshiki cannot stand the thought of Kasumi getting hurt, so he gives in and tells Kyoko that he will marry her.

Part 2

Ren brings Kasumi some breakfast. Ren tries to make Kasumi feel bad and tells her that Yoshiki probably won't come rescue her anymore after he heard her voice on the phone. Kasumi stays strong and asks Ren if that's all he wanted to say. Ren is a little suprised and tells her that she should just eat and leaves the room. Kasumi wonders if Ren is right. If this was the other way around, she probably won't be able to handle it. As she is thinking this, the doorbell rings. She wonders if it's Yoshiki and dashes to the door. To her disappointment, it's her mom.

Yuka tells her and Ren that she begged her company to have her work in Japan again. She notices that Kasumi is half-dressed and asks her if Kasumi was in the middle of changing. Yuka thinks back to what Yoshiki said and shakes her head. Instead of hearing Kasumi's answer, she tells Kasumi that she will be with her from now on will try her hardest at making Kasumi happy.  Kasumi smiles and tells her mom that if she wants to make her happy, then to bring Yoshiki to her...and if she can't do that for her, then to leave her alone. Yuka is shocked and at loss for words. Ren tells her that he'll take her to work and they leave.

As Ren drives Yuka to work, Yuka asks about the phone conversation they had earlier. Yuka asks if Ren possibly loves her, but Ren lies and tells Yuka that he loves Kasumi and that he wants Yuka's blessing.

Ren comes home and tells Kasumi to get ready for dinner. Kasumi tells him that she's not going, but Ren threatens her and tells her that he will rape her again if she does not go. Reluctantly, Kasumi gets ready to go...but in her thoughts, she tells herself that she probably took Ren's threat as an excuse to leave the house...even though Yoshiki probably won't come to her place, while she's gone, she can think that he came.

Ren drops off Kasumi at the elevator and tells her to go up to the restaraunt while he parks the car. In the elevator, Kasumi flashes back to Yoshiki's words and tells herself that she wants to wait for him no matter what, so she stops the elevator. As the elevator door opens, Yoshiki is infront of her eyes. They are both shocked to see each other and Yoshiki goes into the elevator and hugs her. They both have a million questions to ask each other, but stop when Yoshiki tells her that he has finally caught her. They continue to hug each other as the elevator goes up. When the elevator doors open again, Kyoko is at the door. Kyoko thanks Kasumi for coming to the event. Kasumi doesn't understand what is going on, but as she gets out of the elevator, she notices the sign that says "Yoshiki and Kyoko's wedding party". Kasumi is in shock and asks Yoshiki what kind of joke this is. She tells him that she and Ren were never married. She cannot believe that this is happening and begins to cry. She screams at Yoshiki asking him why. Yoshiki starts to explain, but remembers Kyoko's threat. Just then, Ren comes and asks Kasumi what all the loudness is about. Yoshiki is enraged to see Ren and starts to approach him, but the men in charge of the party grab Yoshiki and tell him that he needs to come inside to the party. Ren grabs Kasumi and tells her that they should go to their hotel room since Kasumi doesn't look well and Yuka couldn't make it after all. Kasumi is shocked to know that Ren knew about this all along. Kasumi yells out for Yoshiki as Yoshiki yells out for Kasumi

Part 3

Ren takes Kasumi to the hotel room. Kasumi is still in disbelief, but tells herself that there has got to be a reason behind all this because there was no lie to Yoshiki's arms earlier in the elevator. Ren hugs Kasumi from behind and tells her that Yoshiki probably got tired of Kasumi and went to Kyoko. He starts to rape Kasumi again as Kasumi begs him to stop. Just then, the phone rings.

At the wedding party, Yoshiki tells everyone that he is not feeling well and excuses himself. Kyoko starts to threaten him again, but Yoshiki tells her that she better just be glad that he didn't tell everyone that he was leaving to see the woman he loves. He reminds her that all this is a name in the family register and that's all Kyoko wished for. Yoshiki tells her firmly that he's going to Kasumi and to not make him any more mad than he already is. Kyoko holds back her words and lets him go.

Yoshiki asks the hotel employee about Kasumi's room, but finds out that her and Ren already left the hotel.

Kasumi and Ren are having dinner with Yuka as she apologizes for calling them. Ren tells her that there's nothing to be sorry about since they were in the room anyway. Kasumi is sick of everything and tells Yuka and Ren that she is going home. Yuka starts to get up to chase after her and Ren tells her that he'll take care of everything at the restaraunt. Yuka thanks him. She goes on to ask him if he could give her and Kasumi some alone time for awhile as Yuka leaves. Ren is even more upset.

At the apartment, Yuka tells Kasumi that this is reality and this is the right way. Kasumi is upset and reminds her mom that she's the one who said that she would wish for her happiness as she slams the door. Yuka starts to walk away, but hears ruckus in Kasumi's room. She asks Kasumi if everything is okay, but Kasumi yells that she's fine. In her room, Kasumi and Yoshiki hold each other on the floor. Kasumi starts to ask him why he got married to Kyoko, but before she can ask, Yoshiki shows her something. It's a marriage registration paper with Kasumi and Yoshiki's name on it. He explains to her that even if he explains why he got married to Kyoko, Kasumi probably won't accept his reasons, so he wanted to show her this paper to let her know his true feelings.

In the morning, Yuka checks up on Kasumi, but she is gone. Kasumi and Yoshiki are at his school so he can give his notice for dropping out of school. Some of Kasumi's classmates/friends come up to them and they congratulate Yoshiki for his marriage. Yoshiki asks why they know and they tell him that Kyoko came to the school earlier to transfer Yoshiki to the university she is going to. Kasumi starts to get upset, but Yoshiki pushes the girls aside and goes to Kasumi and calls her by her name (not "sister" in front of the friends). They start to leave and tell their friends good-bye. The girls are in shock that Yoshiki called Kasumi by her name and comment that they seemed like different people.

Yoshiki and Kasumi go back to Yoshiki's apartment. Yoshiki starts to take a shower as Kasumi starts clean. She looks at the marriage paper Yoshiki gave her and holds it next to her cheek. Just then, someone knocks on the door and some roses are delivered to her. She thinks that it's Yoshiki, but it's a cruel reality from Kyoko. Kyoko sends her the real marriage papers with Kyoko and Yoshiki's name on it. Kasumi throws the roses and angrily tells Yoshiki that from now on and forever it's not her that will get the blessing of the marriage to Yoshiki, but Kyoko instead. She cries hysterically screaming, "Even though I love you this much!!!" Yoshiki hugs her from behind.

Later on that night, Kasumi wakes up next to Yoshiki and realizes that she passed out after crying so much. She starts to get up and sees that there's a red thread on her finger that's connected to Yoshiki. Yoshiki wakes up and tells her that he put that on her so he would know when she runs away. Kasumi cries tears of joy for Yoshiki's love.

In the morning, Yoshiki hurriedly gets up so he can get ready and go out to find a job. Kasumi wanted to stay in bed with Yoshiki a little longer and wonders why Yoshiki doesn't feel the same. As Yoshiki starts to get ready, someone knocks on the door. It's Kyoko. She has to come pick Yoshiki up to have dinner with the family. Kasumi doesn't want him to go, but offers to help Yoshiki get ready. After Yoshiki gets dressed, Kasumi notices that Yoshiki's tie is crooked and attmepts to fix it for him, but Yoshiki pulls away. Kasumi is in schock and Yoshiki realizes what he just did and apologizes. Yoshiki and Kyoko leave and Kasumi wonders why Yoshiki pulled away so fast. She starts to get scared thinking that maybe Yoshiki is upset about the rape. As she is thinking this, the phone rings and it's Ren. Ren tells her to come to the hotel lobby he is at if she wants to know why Yoshiki married Kyoko. At first, Kasumi refuses to go, but can't help herself from going because she wants to know so badly why Yoshiki married Kyoko.

She arrives at the hotel lobby and an employee comes up to her handing her the phone. It's Ren. He tells her to come up to the room. Kasumi tells him to come down or else she's leaving, but Ren tells her that he doesn't care if she does or not...she just won't know the truth. Kasumi ends up going to the room. Kasumi demands to know what the truth is, but Ren tells her that he doesn't know anything and grabs her and throws her on the bed. He tries to convince Kasumi that she probably wanted Ren and Yoshiki sees right through her. Kasumi runs out of the room. Yoshiki sees Kasumi and asks her what she's doing at the hotel. Then he sees Ren. He is enraged and punches Ren. Then he picks up Kasumi over his shoulder and leaves.

At home, Yoshiki demands to know why Kasumi went to go see Ren. Kasumi starts to cry and tells him she knows why Yoshiki won't make love to her. It's because he's disgusted with her. Just then, the Kyoko comes banging on the door yelling that she won't leave until Yoshiki comes out. Yoshiki tells Kyoko that he will not leave the place and that if Kyoko wants to stay and hear what's going on, he doesn't care. Yoshiki grabs Kasumi and explains to her that he has been holding himself back because he did not want her to remember anything about the rape. Kasumi is stunned and happy to learn that Yoshiki did that all for her. Yoshiki and Kasumi starto make love. Kyoko realizes what's going on and leaves. Kasumi and Yoshiki continue on with their lovemaking as Kasumi thinks that this indiscretion that they’re commiting now is heaven for them…
