Little Kanade

Listen

Thank you for the meal!
3

Kanade's Father

Listen

Hm? Kanade, you have something on your cheek.
4

Little Kanade

Listen

I do? Where?
5

Kanade's Father

Listen

Your other cheek, silly.
Just stay still for me.
6

Little Kanade

Listen

...
7

Kanade's Father

Listen

There we go.
All gone.
8

???

Listen

Oh, are you sure about that?
9

Kanade's Father

Listen

Huh?
10

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Kanade isn't the only one with something on their cheek, honey.
11

Little Kanade

Listen

Mommy, look!
Daddy did the same things as me!
12

Kanade's Father

Listen

What?! W-Where...?!
13

Kanade's Mother

Listen

It's on this cheek.
Stay still now.
14

Kanade's Father

Listen

O-Okay...
15

Kanade's Mother

Listen

There, got it.
Were you trying to copy Kanade, dear?
16

Little Kanade

Listen

Daddy's a copycat!
17

Kanade's Father

Listen

Hahaha...
18

Little Kanade

Listen

Look, a butterfly...!

Careful not to trip and fall, Kanade.

20

Little Kanade

Listen

Mommy, look! The butterfly stopped on the flower!
21

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Yes, I see. Butterflies love to eat flower nectar very much, so it must be lunchtime for it too.
22

Little Kanade

Listen

It's eating a flower for lunch?
Do flowers taste good...?
23

Kanade's Father

Listen

Oh, that's right...
24

Little Kanade

Listen

What are these flowers called?
25

Kanade's Mother

Listen

These are carnations.
They're my favorite type of flower.
26

Little Kanade

Listen

Car-nay-chons?
27

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Hehe. Carnations, dear.
Oh...?

Daddy's playing his guitar!

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Kanade, wait! Please don't run off like that!
30

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Hehe...
31

Little Kanade

Listen

Let's give daddy a big round of applause!
32

Little Kanade

Listen

Which song was that called?
33

Kanade's Father

Listen

That one? Well, I sort of just played it off hand, so it doesn't really have a name...
34

Kanade's Father

Listen

But let's see...
We can call it, “Kanade and Mommy's Happy Sunday”...!
35

Little Kanade

Listen

Kanade and mommy's happy Sunday...?
36

Little Kanade

Listen

Haha! That's such a silly name!
37

Kanade's Father

Listen

What?! You think so?!
38

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Kanade, you know it's not nice to say things like that. You'll make your father sad.
39

Little Kanade

Listen

Oh no...!
I'm sorry, daddy...
40

Kanade's Father

Listen

Haha. It's okay, Kanade.
41

Kanade's Father

Listen

As long as my music makes you and your mother smile, I'll be more than happy.
42

Little Kanade

Listen

Me smiling makes you smile too, daddy?
43

Kanade's Father

Listen

Yes, it does. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
44

Little Kanade

Listen

Really?!
Then I promise to smile lots and lots!
45

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Hehe...
Would you mind playing us that song one more time, honey?
46

Kanade's Father

Listen

You got it! Get ready for an encore!

47

Little Kanade

Listen

Mommy, you look really happy...!
48

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Oh, I do?
49

Kanade's Mother

Listen

I suppose I just can't help it...
50

Kanade's Mother

Listen

Your father's music always finds a way to make me smile.
51

Little Kanade

Listen

Yeah, me too...!
I love the music daddy plays!
52

Kanade

Listen

This is it...
53

Mizuki

Listen

Huh?

BGM: --:-- / --:-- Play

54

Kanade

Listen

This is what my parents and I saw.
55

Mizuki

Listen

What?!
But this isn't really a glamorous flower field. It's just a bunch of flower beds...
56

Mizuki

Listen

No, I got it!
You came when you were little, so it looked a lot bigger than it really was!
57

Kanade

Listen

Yes, you may be right.
Sorry for the confusion...
58

Mizuki

Listen

No, that's totally fine! I'm just glad that we found it! There really are a lot of carnations here, huh?
59

Kanade

Listen

Yes... It's so nostalgic...
60

Kanade

Listen

(Oh...)
61

Mizuki

Listen

Kanade? Is something wrong?
62

Kanade

Listen

Sorry...
63

Kanade

Listen

(Remembering what happened that day's making me feel worse.)
64

Kanade

Listen

(Even after Mizuki went through the trouble of finding this place. But if I recall any more than this, I might...)
65

Mizuki

Listen

This place really means a lot to you, doesn't it, Kanade...?
66

Kanade

Listen

Huh...?
67

Mizuki

Listen

Sorry, it's just that I'm glad to have learned that because you hardly ever talk about yourself or stuff like this, you know?
68

Mizuki

Listen

You had this great expression on your face when you saw these flowers too. You seemed so happy.
69

Mizuki

Listen

So, I'm glad we did this...
70

Kanade

Listen

Mizuki...
71

Mizuki

Listen

Nevermind, ignore that last part! Look at me...! Talking like I know everything about you...!
72

Kanade

Listen

No, don't say that...
73

Kanade

Listen

I wouldn't have been able to remember anything if it weren't for you.
74

Kanade

Listen

Like my memories from when I was little and why I liked this place so much.
75

Mizuki

Listen

Kanade...
76

Mizuki

Listen

Would you mind telling me more? About what happened back then and stuff?
77

Kanade

Listen

Uh, sure...

78

Kanade

Listen

My parents and I came here on a picnic.
79

Kanade

Listen

Dad even brought his guitar and sang for us.
80

Kanade

Listen

It was a really simple song, but it was so gentle and happy...
81

Kanade

Listen

Because of that, listening to it usually cheers me up.
82

Mizuki

Listen

Yeah, that sounds nice...
83

Mizuki

Listen

You're talking about that music box your dad made, right? It has to be good if you're willing to say this much. It'd be great to listen to it sometime too...
84

Kanade

Listen

Oh, I can bring it with me next time if you want...
85

Mizuki

Listen

Wait, really?
86

Kanade

Listen

Yes, I'd like you to hear it too.
87

Mizuki

Listen

...
88

Mizuki

Listen

Great, thanks...!
89

Kanade

Listen

(When is the last time I talked about my past like this...?)
90

Kanade

Listen

(I'd forgotten about what happened back then for so long...)
91

Kanade

Listen

(Or rather, I kept it locked away in the back of my mind...)
92

Kanade

Listen

(We were so happy back then, remembering it all now felt painful...)
93

Kanade

Listen

(But I'm glad I was able to.)
94

Kanade

Listen

(This place meant so much to me, and it still does...)
95

Mizuki

Listen

But what are the odds that one of my favorite places would turn out to be this kind of blast from the past for you, Kanade?
96

Mizuki

Listen

Hehe. I'm glad we came.
97

Kanade

Listen

Yes, me too.
98

Kanade

Listen

Thank you very much, Mizuki.
99

Kanade

Listen

I'm not sure I would've been able to handle what I just felt if I came here alone.
100

Kanade

Listen

I was able to look back on what happened then with a more open mind thanks to you, Mizuki.
101

Mizuki

Listen

But I didn't really do...
102

Mizuki

Listen

Oh, right...
103

Mizuki

Listen

You're very welcome, Kanade.
