Chapter 154
[side text: "...Mother..." Overflowing tears and emotions.]
Watanuki: You can tell me. / Everything that you've thought and felt. // I'll listen. // I'll hear your feelings out... / ...All of them.

6
[side text: Her unending feelings for her mother!! The things she could not say, the tears she could not shed... now overflow here in Watanuki's arms!!]
Kohane: Mother...
[sFX: squeeze]
Kohane: Mother...... // ...Mama...

7
Kohane: ...I'm so sorry......

8
Watanuki: ...You didn't do anything wrong, Kohane-chan. // Not... // ...Not a single thing.

9
Yuuko: Wishes... // It's true that if one keeps on wishing for something hard enough, that can be enough to make it come true; wishes have that kind of power. // However... / If one wishes misfortune upon another... // Then the stronger that wish, / the more oneself, too, is thrown into misfortune. // Here, one who found herself in misfortune... // ...began to resent another, and wish misfortune upon him.

10
Doumeki: That mother...
Yuuko: She desired revenge upon the husband who left her. // And, never knowing that wishing for revenge would hurt herself as much as it would her husband...

11
Yuuko: She wished... // ...and wished... // ...moving towards this day... // And her own daughter... // ...became caught up in this wish that was bringing misfortune upon herself.

12
Yuuko: Kohane-chan must have been waiting all this time... // She did not wish to force her mother's hand. / She wanted her to realise the truth herself. // But, nothing ever changed... // Her mother, and the situation, kept on steadily worsening...

13
Yuuko: And still... // ...she could do nothing about it... // She was waiting for a trigger.

14
Doumeki: You said, didn't you... // That she... // ...might have been waiting for him.

15
Yuuko: She must have realised when she met Watanuki... // That the two of them were "similar".
Doumeki: ...Because they can both see that which is invisible?
Yuuko: That, as well... // But more so than that, their hearts are alike.
Doumeki: ...Yes, I see.

16
Yuuko: Besides... // The one thing that can change a person... is meeting another.
[side text: That which could not be changed alone, can be changed by the two of them. The ties of hitsuzen bring forth a new future!!]
