Father : Where is that idiot son of mine?
Ah! Over there! Over there! Hey Hiroki!
Rika : Hiroki Oniichan!
Mother : Hiroki, hang in there!
Aya : Hiro!
Hiro : Aya-nee ....!
Aya : Do your best, okay!
Hiro :That's my Aya-nee!
She's a real beauty, isn't she? Aren't you jealous?
Mother : This is all thanks to Ako, right?
Father : You really are my kid.
Ako : Shut up.
Father : Ah! Penalty! Penalty!
Aya : Hiro ...
*Have an image in your head, then practice hard again and again.*
Everyone : HORAYY!!!!!
Hiro : YEAHHH!!!!
Father : He's my kid afterall. Ah! I forgot to take the picture!
Mother, Aya, Ako, Rika : Hahahahahahaha!!

Aya : .............. People cannot fight just by themselves. Even though i have been hurt before by those heartless glances, this also helped me to understand that around me, there still exists some gentle glances ....Therefore, i definitely won't run away. That's what i will do. Definitely, ALWAYS ....................

Teacher : It might be wrong to say this as a form tutor but ... we think it might be better for Aya-san, to transfer to a school better equipped for the disable in the new school year..
I regret to say that there is no support equipment for the disable in our school..
Mother : Excuse me, but ..
Head teacher : Ikeuchi-san, have you thought about going to a school for the disabled?
In a school for the disabled, they provide the most suitable equipment, and will help your daughter according to her disability. There won't be any hurrying to get to the classroom like now, and it also won't be a burden to other students.

Mother : Head teacher, my daughter has created a lot of trouble for her friends. We're grateful for everyone-
Teacher : I understand that... The truth is, someone in class pointed out, the fact that she's always late to lessons is affecting her.
Head teacher : Would you please consider it?

Aya : I will decide my future.
...because of this disease, i thought that i had no choice but to quit the club. And other things, too. I've given up a lot already.. but, i think that there are really is no choice. I fully understand that i'm not able to do the same things as everyone else, but even like this ... i still want to be with Mari and the others....
........I don't want to live in a place without friends!
... without friends .... I.... I won't be myself .... Therefore, please ........
Mother : I understand ... The place that is most suitable for Aya... is still Higashikou, right?
Aya : Em.
Mother : Then i won't say anything else..I also hope, your future will be decided by yourself.
Aya : I will decide my future.

Mari : Aya, you're leaving early today?
Aya : Yes, i have a check-up.
Mari : Then we can take you to the nurse's office.
Aya : It's okay, it's okay. I still have some time, so i can get there slowly by myself.
Mari : Really?
Aya :Em.
.
.
.
Teacher : Get back to your seat quickly. Homeroom is going to start now.
Student 1 : Sensei, i have something to say to the whole class..
Teacher : Really? Then, go ahead.
Student 1 : I want to talk about Aya's situation.
Asou : Get on.
Aya : Say something!
..talk about penguins, fish or dogs. Those animals won't be able to wake up either.
.. telling a story is fine too, or even a lie. I won't get mad.
Asou : I can't do anything. Those people talking so shamelessly..I'm just like them too .... knowing about your disease, always watching you from afar...
..but in the end, i still can't do anything ... I can only say what i think, like an idiot. Just like what my dad said...i'm still a kid..
Aya : That's not it at all ... You are always encouraging me. You listen to me when i say the things that i can't say to others... When it's time to move on, you have always been there, by my side ...
...when i'm feeling depressed, you always keep me company ...
...Thank you, Asou-kun ...
...Bye-bye ....
.
.... People that live, have to continue living.....whatever happens.... no matter how hard it is...don't give up on yourself.....
.
Aya : It seems so pleasant! But how come it doesn't bump into the aquarium's wall? And can swim around so freely?
Asou : The dolphin's voice.
Aya : Voice?
Asou : Human ears can't hear it. The ultrasound produced will reflect back to them, to confirm the location of the objects around them.
Aya : So, that's how it is ...
Asou : Also by using this kind of sound, it can talk with other dolphins that are far away.
Aya : A secret conversation that we can't hear, right? I wonder if i can hear it ..
..humans too..wouldn't it be great if we could be like this too and talk to people far away from us?
Asou : Hang on a second.
.
.
.
Asou : Here you are.Even though it isn't as convenient as a dolphin.
Aya : Thank you..
.
.
.
*Raining*
Asou : Shall we go over there?
.
Father : Ah! They're here!
Mother : Aya! Are you okay?
Aya : I'm perfectly fine.
Asou : I....
Mother : What are you doing? What if she catches a cold?!
Asou : Sorry..
Father : Quickly get changed. The bathroom is free for you to use.
Mother : Anyway Asou-kun, come in first.
Ako : .............................

Father : How is Aya?
Mari : Aya, you're leaving early today?

Aya : Ahh ... I forgot my book
.
.
.
Student 1 : Right now, Aya's condition has become a topic of debate in the PTA. I'm sure everyone knows about that. I think it would be better to get the opinion of the class.
Aya : Ahh ... I forgot my book
.
.
.
Student 1 : Right now, Aya's condition has become a topic of debate in the PTA. I'm sure everyone knows about that. I think it would be better to get the opinion of the class.
Personally, i think that in helping Aya, the whole class's activity has been affected.
...for Aya's sake too, we need to discuss what we should do.
Student 2 : Even though i pity her, i also hope classes won't have to continue to start late.
Student 3 : As for me, i think that too. But, asking Aya to move faster is impossible..
Student 3 : Aya... i feel sorry for her. Let's just wait for her for five or ten minutes, okay?
Student 4 : But then, what if she's late for exams? That will be difficult..
Student 1 : Mira, how do you feel?
Mira : Aya... is lost too. But she is trying really hard. We only have to give her a little bit of support. And that shouldn't be too much trouble, right?
Student 4 : But Mira, you are injured because of Aya and can't be participate in the basketball game, right?
Mira :That's ............. true, but ......
Student 1 : What about you, Saki?
Saki : I.... pick her up at the school gate everyday. I accompany her when she change classrooms. I really like Aya ..........
...and i help her because we are friends. But sometimes ... i feel its really tiring too...
Mira : Saki .....
Saki : I'm not really good at studying, and i also have club activities. There's no time to play at all ...
Student 1 :You're at your limit, right? And thinking that from now on, we still need to keep on going... Even if we want to help her, it's really impractical.
Teacher : I understand.. I understand. I understand what everyone is trying to say. I will pass this into Aya's parents.
Asou : Aren't you guys being really devious?
...in front of her, you guys pretend to be good people. To be nice to her. No matter how many times she says, "I'm sorry" , you all always answer her with, "It's okay!" "It's okay!"
.. and when she is not here, you all say this kind of things. Saying all of these things are actually a burden upon yourselves. It's really devious.
Teacher : Asou, about that ...
Asou : If you all weren't willing to saying anything from her at the beginning, then you shouldn't have been nice to her. Troublesome, difficult, too tired, and stuff, then tell her directly! If you yell at her, it isn't like she won't understand! She will definitely try to think of a solution that wouldn't trouble anybody.
Teacher : Asou, i know what you are trying to say, but ...
Asou : Sensei too! Why didn't you say this in front of her? Before, you could have discussed it with her. Don't do these kind of things that you can't back out from. If you could face her properly, she would be able to do so herself, too....
...Aya ...
Mari : Aya ....
Aya : Sorry, i forgot something ..

Everyone : ................................

Father : How is Aya?
Mother : Fine. She's asleep. I also gave her an electrical blanket.
Asou : It's all my fault... I'm incredibly sorry ....
Mother : I'm sorry for what happened before .. For yelling at you.
Father : Okay, its fine. There's no need to kneel.
Mother : Raise your head, Asou-kun.
... we are really grateful for what you have done. You care about and are aware of Aya, and can ask her out like this. I think Aya also appreciates that.. Aya now.. must be aware of and careful of a lot of things.
... even though it looks like she is healthy, the condition of her body, isn't doing very well right now. Even just by getting a slight cold, there is a possibility for her, to acquire pneumonia..
..these are minor things for healthy people.. But for Aya,
.... it may be the thing that could take away her life ..
.. it can't only be about being happy together anymore.. Already, it can't be like it was before..
Father : Anyways, today ended without any incident. We left Aya to you by yourself too. Therefore, it isn't your fault.
Asou : Sorry .... I'm really sorry ....
.
.
.
Aya : Today... I'm sorry ..
... I gave you so much trouble.. Just now, about what Okasaan said... Sorry ...
Asou : Sorry, it's really raining hard. I can't her you that well..
Aya : Just as i thought .... it's hard to hear me isn't it?
Asou : It's not like that. It's fine.
Aya : Already. it seems like it can't be like before anymore.. even though i can let you push the wheelchair, but still, we can't walk together.. Just because i got wet from the rain, it caused such a big deal.. For sure, sooner or later, i won't be able to talk.. I won't be able to make a phone call.. Now, it's completely different ... compared to the time at Higashikou..
...As for you.... already, I think our worlds has become completely different...
