”…It’s been a while.”
”Yeah. Are you feeling okay?”
”Thank you. I’m fine.”
Akane, whom he hadn’t seen for some time, stepped into the room with a shy smile.
”Akane, even with your busy internship, thank you for coming here every day to cook for me.”
”You said that on the phone yesterday. You don’t need to thank me again.”
”No, I wanted to say it face to face.”
”I see. Understood.”
”I’m sorry for being careless before… and for what I said. Today, I want to explain properly.”
”About the memories from your past life and your ability?”
”Yes.”
”Please, no more talk about the ability. I don’t want you to cut your arm again.”
”I won’t do that anymore. I understand. I’ll explain only about the memories.”
Haruto told her again, in detail, about his past life memories.
But he couldn’t say what he really hoped for — the things about length and thickness.
When he finished, silence filled the room.
Haruto could not bear the quiet and tried to speak.
”Did you… make love with Mama and Harue-san too?”
”…Yes. Sorry for not saying it earlier.”
”What do you want me to do after hearing that?”
”I know it’s hard, but if you can, please forgive me.”
”I understand.”
”Really?”
Haruto was surprised how easily she forgave him.
But Akane added:
”Yes, because I am not involved anymore… But since Papa is here, please stop seeing Mama.”
”…”
Haruto had wanted to explain so many things to Akane.
But he couldn’t say even half of what he thought.
”Is the talk over?”
”No, no, that’s not what I mean, Akane!”
”What do you mean, then?”
”I don’t want to break up with you! I want to try again!”
”So you want me to forgive you — and accept your relationship with Mama and Harue-san — while trying with me again?”
”…Yes.”
”Haruto… do you know how terrible that sounds? You want me to forgive your cheating — when you’re my mother’s lover?”
Akane’s words made sense to anyone normal.
But Haruto’s life was not normal.
Having memories of a past life and loving two women from different times…
That was beyond what most could understand.
”I know! That’s normal thinking. But still… I…”
I love Akane. I love my mother.
He wanted to say this, but he saw his mistake.
The moment he spoke recklessly was the moment he lost control.
He should never have admitted sleeping with Yui.
He wanted to tell the truth, but that truth made no sense to say.
”I want everyone to be happy.”
”…Are you asking me to accept that?”
”…Yes.”
”That’s impossible.”
”Akane, I love you. I love you so much! I…”
”I love you too! I love you so much! I thought about it so much! But still, I can’t understand! Why should I accept the one I love being with another woman?”
”Ah, Akane…”
”Why did you tell me this? If you wanted to hide it, you should have kept it secret.”
Akane, who had been calm, suddenly shouted.
Then, she cried like a child.
”If you wanted to keep it secret, keep it secret until the end.”
Her words were her true feelings.
Her heartbreak, raw and pure.
