You know, last time, I was dropped into my apartment during the fall. I think the sidewalk is a step down.

Is this... that curse again?

[mother_rem]

Nope. Looks like you're stuck with me being here again, Hatsuharu.

[eccentric_ox]

Really? Not that I think you'd lie to me, but... I don't trust the City and it's curses.

[mother_rem]

I know. I wouldn't either.

But I've been here all night and all my things are in the apartment, so I think I'm really here.

[eccentric_ox]

I missed you.

[mother_rem]

...I know. I missed you too, Hatsuharu.

[eccentric_ox]

Welcome back.

[mother_rem]

Thanks.

How've you been while I was gone?

[eccentric_ox]

I've been all right. It just wasn't the same without you.

[mother_rem]

Are you sure?

...I'm sorry I didn't get to say goodbye.

[eccentric_ox]

I guess. I mean, after you left, Yuki and Hatori-nii disappeared too. It was... sad, to say the least.

It's okay. I know it wasn't your fault.

[mother_rem]

...So he is gone. I wasn't sure.

But I heard he's here too. Are you really okay?

[eccentric_ox]

I'm sorry.

As okay as I can be, I guess.

[mother_rem]

It's not anything you have to be sorry for. It's probably better for him.

All right. If you need anything or somewhere else to stay, you know my apartment's always open to you and Rin and everyone else.

[eccentric_ox]

Mm. Thank you.
