Welcome back, milady.

Anon

Wow! She really is a rich girl!

Anon

Wasn't she all over the internet when she debuted?
Oblivionis is part of the Togawa Group...

Tomori

The Togawa Group...

Anon

Eh~? Didn't Minami Mori also do an ad for them?
To-ga-wa Group♪

Um...

Sakiko

This part is for the guitar—Mutsumi's section.
Next is for the keyboard, so it's my part.

Tomori

Yeah...

Sakiko

Then comes Soyo's section. The bass part.
The last one is Taki's part.

Sakiko

If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me anytime.

Sakiko

Well, what a lovely view.
Ah, you can see that pedestrian bridge from here.

Tomori

Yeah...

Sakiko

We screamed from over there before.
It was my first time doing something like that.

Sakiko

Every day was so much fun, I looked forward to practicing every day.
The five of us forming CRYCHIC
is true happiness...

Tomori

...

Sakiko

It made me want to scream,
Listen to our music! Just like our band's name.

Sakiko

(Enough already!)

Sakiko

(I'm happy? You want to know about me?
What do you think I've been feeling all this time!?)

Sakiko

(You don't understand! You can't understand!
You, who are still in a happy band!)

Tomori

Wait, Saki-chan...!

Sakiko

(Tomori...)

Tomori

...! Saki-chan...

Anon

Tomorin, are you okay?
Wait, is Sakiko-chan over there?

Sakiko

(Why?
No matter how many times you fall or get hurt, you...)

Sakiko

(You...!)

Butler

Milady?

Sakiko

No, it's nothing.

Tomori

Wait...!

Anon

Leave it to me.
I was the anchor runner for my class all through middle school!

Sakiko

Give it to me.

Sakiko-chan! Wait up!

Excuse me—

I'm her friend!

Anon

Excuse me for intruding.
Oh, Tomorin, over here.

Tomori

Haa... Haa... Haa...

Butler

We're departing now.

Sakiko

Yeah.

Sakiko

(What are they planning, following me like this without asking?)

Sakiko

(Even though it's already over.
Even though there's nothing that can be done...)

The house is amazing... isn't it enormous?
And there are roses, too. It's like a royal family's!

Anon

Huh? A pool table? That's amazing.

Sakiko

Tomori, didn't you have something to say?

Tomori

...

Tomori

Saki-chan...! Let's be in a band!

Anon

Eh...

Sakiko

(What was I expecting?
I knew this would happen.
And yet, I obediently bring them here...)

Sakiko

(I really, really... hate myself.)

Tomori

Let's be in a band together, just like before... And then...

Sakiko

I already told you to stop it.

Tomori

But, Saki-chan, you were crying...

Sakiko

What could you possibly understand about me?

Sakiko

You think being in a band
will make me happy?

Sakiko

If that's what you think, then you're more than being completely wrong.
I have nothing more to say.

Tomori

Ah...

Sakiko

Please excuse yourselves...!

Tomori

Anon

Let's go, Tomorin.

Sorry, sorry! I'm late!

Taki

You're so late! Do you know that the live is coming soon?

Anon

That's why I'm apologizing. What about Soyorin?

Taki

Not here yet.

Anon

Good~

Taki

Seriously...
Tomori, what's wrong?

Tomori

...

Anon

Ah...
Tomorin might be a little tired today.

Taki

What happened?

Anon

She went to Sakiko-chan's house to ask her to be in a band.
But we got kicked out...

Taki

Tomori, is that true?

Tomori

I just wanted... to talk to Saki-chan.

Taki

I don't think that's necessary.

Tomori

Eh?

Taki

Because I don't want you to get hurt digging too deeply.

Tomori

Ah...

Anon & Taki & Tomori

!?

Rāna

Let's play.

Anon

Wait, Soyorin isn't here yet.

Taki

She'll come around.

Yes, yes....... No, she's been asleep the whole time.

Mortis

Hello? Is this the doctor?
Yes...... Yes, Mutsumi-chan isn't waking up.
