Ai: I have something to ask you.
<84>
Rolex: What is it? ... anyway... I listen for you.
Ai: Right now... I'm planning to write a picture book
with Youta...
Ai: but it takes time...
<85>
Ai: Can you extend my playing time till we finish the
book? Please give me time.
Ai: Please.
Rolex: ... Even though you didn't ask, I have something in
mind that would extend your playing time.
Ai: R-really!?
<86>
Sign: [Chapter 104: Happy day]
<87>
Station: Line three, the train is arriving, please stand
inside the white lines.
Youta: I really think we can't see each other for about a
month, but are you going to be okay?
Moemi: I'm okay. The winter vacation will be over tomorrow,
and school will start the day after tomorrow. Then a
month will pass quickly.
Sound: Puaaaa.
<88>
Sound: Gagagaga.
Moemi: See you soon.
Sound: Gatan gatan tata.
Youta: Okay...
Sound: Pusyuuu...
Moemi: W-well... my father will transfer to...
<89>
Sound: Rurururururu.
Youta: Eh? What did you say?
Sound: Pusyu.
<90>
Moemi: In one month... when Moteuchi-kun finishes his
book... I might not be in Japan...
Sound: Tatan tatan tatan.
Moemi: Moteuchi-kun's promise came from his kindness which
Ai-chan taught me. He didn't say it just because of
the situation, I think his words are something he
must live with, such heavy words... But the promise
will bring him pain soon... Don't worry. I don't
trust that promise... so.
<91>
Moemi: But... I'll wait for him... that's the only thing I
can do. There might be 1/10000 chance...
Youta: ...Wonder what Moemi-chan was trying to say...
Youta: Anyway I told her to trust me... I have to give up
Ai-chan...
Youta: Um... from Dad... that's odd...
<92>
Ai: Tou!!
Sound: Dou.
Ai: Did I scare you?
Youta: I thought I would have a heart attack!!
Ai: You were scared, huh! I see! I see!
Sound: Ban ban ban ban.
Youta: Ouch!! Ouch!! Ouch!!!
Ai: Um. What is this?
<93>
Youta: Darn, she ignored me...
Ai: Hey! Who is this... Daizo?
Youta: My dad.
Ai: Eh!? Is that so!? Hey! Hey! Can I read it!!
Youta: Sure?
Ai: Well... " How are you, my son..." okay... " I heard
from Tagashira-kun... but you're drawing a picture
book...", okay.
Ai: "Don't you want to come here to study?... It's also
meant as an apology because I couldn't do anything
for you as your dad"... Hey!
Ai: Where's your dad at?
Youta: ... In Paris...
<94>
Ai: Paris!? It's great!! You should go!!
Youta: Idiot... What am I going to do about Moemi-chan...
Ai: Oh... that's right... But your dad is asking you...
Youta: It's okay... He's been selfish, he must be
capricious this time again.
It's okay to leave it alone.
Ai: Oh yeah.
Youta: By the way! You look happy. Did anything good
happen?
Ai: He he he. It's a secret.
<95>
Ai: Surely! ... finish it!! ... the picture book!!
Youta: Yeah.
Ai: If I come to Youta's house, I can take a bath for
free. It's very reasonable.
Sound: Syawa.
Ai: I can wash as much as I want too, and the dryer is
also free. I don't have any more money so this helps
me a lot.
<96>
Rolex: Even though you didn't ask, I have something in mind
that would extend your playing time as a result.
Ai: That guy warmed up little bit. Kusu kusu.
Sound: Kyu.
Ai: Now I don't have to worry about time and I can do my
best to write the picture book.
Ai: Um! I have a good idea!! If I take time, I'll have
longer playing time!!
<97>
Sound: Kakan.
Ai: ... Shit.
I didn't bring my underwear... the one I was wearing
is in here... Do I still have one of my panties left
in my room?
Sound: Gooooo.
Sound: Bata bata bata bata.
Youta: What's she doing in the isle?
Sound: Dota dota dota dota.
<98>
Youta: Hey! What are you doing!!
Sound: Ba.
Sound: Gan.
Ai: U.
Ai: Ouch...
Youta: Again, you're walking around like that!! Throughout
my memory of high school, junior high, elementary
school, and even kindergarten, for 17 years, I've
never seen a girl without shame like you!
Ai: Wait! 17 years old... I see. You are already 17
years old!
Youta: What! Of course, you're 17 too, right? Don't change
the subject!!
<99>
Ai: No, I'm not!! I'm 16. I'll never be 17.
Ai: I'm a video girl, not a person. I don't age and in
the first place,
I don't have a birthday. When am I going to age?
<100>
Ai: When you'll be an old man, I'll still be 16. It's
kinda sad...
Ai: Of course I won't be playing that long.
Youta: Ai-chan.
Ai: Hey don't look so down! I had a happy day today, you
would destroy it.
Youta: Okay.
Youta: By the way, wear something or you'll catch cold!!
Ai: Oh yeah, I don't have any comfortable clothes, let
me borrow your sweatshirt.
<101>
Gokuraku: I'm still not clear as to what I'm making because
that man holds the key part... but I feel that I
shouldn't complete this. If my guess is right...
this is...
Gokuraku: I'm working for him... I kept it inside of me
through all that happened, but... after I confirm
with him what this is... then I may have to report
to the elder...
