"I had total body plastic surgery. Forgive me for keeping it
a secret." Honami finally reveals her secret to Ryusui who
is stunned and doesn't let her explain. With depressed spirits he
leaves to go to the Executive Committee meeting where he had intended
to announce that he was breaking his engagement to Aoi and marrying
Honami. He quickly adjourns the meeting without talking about his
intention to build his own style of flower arrangement. News comes
that his mother, Shino, has collapsed.
At the Saotome home Junichi and Ruriko are upset with Honami, saying,
"Just leave things as they are." You aren't going to lie
and cover this up, are you?" But even so Homani is certain
that she did the right thing. Ryohei looks as if there is something
he would like to say.
Later, both Isaki and Ryusui come to visit Ryohei. Ryusui asks Isaki
why she didn't tell him about Honami's plastic surgery. Isaki runs
out of the house after telling him that she loves him and that he
is her brother in name only. Ryusui doesn't really say why he came,
but he seems to want to know how Homani used to look. Ryohei brings
out photos that he took of Honami and Narumi, saying, "This
is the real Honami. Think carefully about whether you can love this
face." He says nothing about how he himself has always been
close to Honami and loved her.
Honami goes to see Ryusui one more time. "It's okay if you
can't accept me, but I refuse to let you look down on me."
Ryusui replies that he can't accept artificial flowers, and Honami
is determined to show him that artificial flowers also have to live
and persevere. One week later an amazing figure shows up in the
Saotome's living room, in Ryusui's room and in the lobby of the
hospital where Isaki visits her mother. It's Honami, who is appearing
on the popular variety show, Beauty Coliseum. |
