Saki-chan.

Sakiko

...!

Soyo

Anon-chan told me everything.
You actually said you wouldn't care about Mutsumi-chan anymore?

Sakiko

...
It has nothing to do with you.

Soyo

! Go meet Mutsumi-chan!

Sakiko

Stop! Let go!

Soyo

Come on, let's go to Mutsumi-chan's house.

Sakiko

Didn't I tell you to let go!?

Soyo

Are you trying to run away!?

Sakiko

And I'm saying that I'm not going! Let go of me!

Soyo

I won't let go!

Sakiko & Soyo

Haa... Haa......

Soyo

Mutsumi-chan said she wants to see you.

Sakiko

!

Soyo

Saki-chan, you have to know this too.
You know what happened to Mutsumi-chan, right?

Sakiko

If I could meet her, I would have long...
If I went, Mutsumi would...

Soyo

I went to your apartment.

Sakiko

!

Soyo

Now I know what happened to you.
But it doesn't mean that you can just pretend nothing happened.

Sakiko

...

Anon

Eh!? Wait, Soyorin!?
What happened? Are you okay?

Tomori

...

Soyo

Perfect timing, would you come along too?

Anon & Tomori

Mortis

Get out!
Why did you bring her here? Sakiko-chan is a bad kid!

Soyo

Please, just for a moment.

Anon & Tomori

Soyo

Saki-chan, please...

Sakiko

...

Mortis

Do you even have human blood running through your veins?

Sakiko & Soyo

!

Mortis

You're not human!
After all this time, you just show up like nothing happened!

Anon

Eh...?

Mortis

Get out! I don't want to see you! Get out!

Soyo

Mortis-chan...

Mortis

You're a traitor too...!
You, and you too! Get out...

Sakiko

Anon

That "not human" thing she just said,
was that from a drama?

Soyo

A drama?

Anon

"Harbor of Love"... Minami Mori's line.

Soyo

So... was that also from...

Sakiko

...!

"Get out! I don't want to see you!"

Sakiko

(That's how it is...)

Tomori

I wonder what she is thinking...

Anon & Soyo

...

Sakiko

That's a doll.

Sakiko

A shell that can only act.
Because I made Mutsumi become a doll...

Sakiko

Mutsumi... has already...

Sakiko

(I am truly foolish.)

Sakiko

(Not only did I hurt Mutsumi, but I also turned away from my sins,
trying not to see them, wishing to forget...)

Sakiko

(I understood nothing.
I am a foolish and weak human... no, not even human.)

Sakiko

This is what...
"I want to become a human" means...

Sakiko

She's right. I'm not human at all.
Ugh... Ugh...

(Tomori is always desperate...
Even on a path with no exit, she continues struggling...)

Sakiko

(Even if I'm not human, even if I'm something that can't be called human.
I must face myself without running away... just like she did.)

Sakiko

(What I should do is...)

Soyo-chan, why! Don't leave me on read!!!

Mortis

Mortis

Mutsumi-chan, you're such a stubborn fool.
How many times do I have to explain it for you to understand?

Mortis

I'm not being mean.

Mutsumi

Let me see Saki.

Mortis

You'll be sad if you see her, you'll get hurt.
I'm protecting you.

Saki has been standing there all this time.

Isn't it her choice?

Mutsumi

Mortis, please.

Mortis

Please stop talking. All you do is say annoying things.
Shut up.

But...

Stop talking.

Stop it, stop it, stop it, shut up!!

As long as you can return to normal, I'll do anything, I...
