Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I apologize for the sudden intrusion.
I know I wasn't scheduled to visit until this weekend...
2

Kanade

Listen

No, that's okay.
But I have to ask. Did something happen?
3

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

No, it's just...
I found a few clinics and hospitals that seemed good, and I wanted to tell Mafuyu about them right away.
4

Mafuyu

Listen

Clinics and hospitals...?
5

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Yes, I have a list of all that provide assistance with mental health issues.

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

For example, this one is very highly regarded and easily accessible from Ms. Yoisaki's house. I even had a chance to speak to the doctors, and they seemed like nice people.
7

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Would you like to try taking a visit there sometime, Mafuyu?
8

Mafuyu

Listen

...
9

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Oh, that's okay if you don't feel comfortable. Also, you can always stop going if it wasn't what you were expecting.
10

Mafuyu

Listen

Okay, I'll think about it...
11

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Alright, I'll let them know.
We can discuss making actual appointments at a later time.
12

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Oh, that reminds me...
13

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Were you okay the other day?
That was a tremendous thunderstorm...
14

Mafuyu

Listen

Oh...
15

Mafuyu

Listen

I was fine.
Thunder doesn't scare me anymore...
16

Mafuyu

Listen

But... Thank you...
17

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I see...
18

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I'm glad to hear that.

Mizuki

Listen

If you believe that there is even the slightest chance that your dad will understand... Then I think you two should talk...
21

Mafuyu

Listen

Umm... So...
22

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Hm?
23

Mafuyu

Listen

About what happened that night...
24

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

That night...?
25

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Oh...
26

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Are you ready to tell me?
27

Mafuyu

Listen

*Nod*
28

Mafuyu

Listen

I...
29

Mafuyu

Listen

I was talking to Mom...
Because I didn't do very well on this one test...

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

31

Mafuyu

Listen

Then, she said how she'll be taking my phone in order to ensure that I focus on my studies...
32

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I see...
33

Mafuyu

Listen

I told her that I'd keep doing my best and begged her to not take my phone away. But she wouldn't listen...
34

Mafuyu

Listen

So when she tried to take it from me, it slipped out of my hand and fell into the aquarium... That's how it broke.
35

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

...
36

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I had no idea...
37

Mafuyu

Listen

It's my fault for not doing well on that test.
38

Mafuyu

Listen

But...
39

Mafuyu

Listen

My laptop, my synthesizer and then my phone... She kept taking away everything that mattered to me...
40

Mafuyu

Listen

Kanade and the others... I thought I was going to be cut off from them...
41

Mafuyu

Listen

I thought I was going to lose everything.
42

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

...
43

Mafuyu

Listen

I couldn't take it anymore...
44

Mafuyu

Listen

I had to do something before it was too late. I had to tell Mom how I really felt...
45

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

How you really felt...?
46

Mafuyu

Listen

Yes...
47

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

It's okay, Mafuyu...
You can tell me.
48

Mafuyu

Listen

...
49

Mafuyu

Listen

I... I...
50

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Yes?
51

Mafuyu

Listen

I don't actually want to become a doctor...
52

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

What...?
53

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Is that true...?
54

Mafuyu

Listen

Oh...
55

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

For the longest time, I thought your goal was to become a doctor...

Now I see...
58

Mafuyu

I'm really sorry, Dad!
59

Mafuyu

Listen

But... I...
60

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

...
61

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

It's okay. You don't need to apologize.
62

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Alright...
63

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I honestly didn't know...
64

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I'm very sorry, Mafuyu.
65

Mafuyu

Listen

Huh...?
66

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I was completely under the impression until now that you were set on becoming a doctor...

67

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

It seemed possible considering your stellar grades. I thought you had a bright future ahead of you...
68

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

But...
69

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

My misunderstanding caused you to suffer.
70

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I'm sorry for not realizing this sooner...
71

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

If only I paid closer attention to how you were actually doing, then we might've avoided all this...
72

Mafuyu

Listen

Dad...
73

Mafuyu

Listen

It's not your fault, Dad. It's mine for...
74

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Mafuyu.
75

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

You should be doing what you want.
76

Mafuyu

Listen

...!
77

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

I still don't have a full understanding of what's going through your mother's mind. However, I'll be talking to her later about this.
78

Mafuyu

Listen

But Mom...
79

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Don't worry.
I'm sure she'll come around.
80

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

Also...
81

Mafuyu's Father

Listen

No matter what happens, I won't turn my back on you.

My hand? Yes, of course.

Seriously, grilled squid?
We couldn't have chosen a worse stall to do for the school festival...
113

Ena

Listen

On top of the sauce smelling really gross, our class t-shirt's unbelievably lame... My motivation's totally through the floor...
114

Ena

Listen

Still, Mizuki seemed excited, so I guess I should try to actually participate this time...
115

Ena

Listen

Come to think of it, Mizuki's class is doing something that sounded fun...

Ena

Listen

I should check out what they're doing.
Hehe. This should make for a nice surprise.
