The first day of the journey towards the border.

We've earned quite a bit of distance, but we're still far from where we're meant to be.

The day continued to run until the critical time of the setting of the sun, after which we finally got ready for camp.

Eat well and all you have to do is sleep.

Rig and Anne continued to run, and soon fell asleep.

Only I fall asleep, meditating my eyes without sleeping.

Rig asked me today, and after meeting your sister, I figured out what to do.

I made up my mind to bring your sister back.

But I knew I was still a little scared.

I was just thinking about forgiving your sister, and she might not be.

I'm thinking of something that's not good, and I might get another bad look because of it.

How hard I tried, maybe I can't get back to normal.

Enough to think about that...... no, my head thinks on its own and I suffer.

"- Kami, can you hear me?

I, uh, call Kami.

"I hear you."

Kami's voice returns.

When I realized, he was sitting beside me sleeping.

"What do you think I should do?

That's what I ask.

You've been looking at me, and you're supposed to be peeking at all of my heart.

And you probably live a lot longer than I do, and you know a lot about it, Kami.

Then I felt like you would choose a much more appropriate answer than I did.

"All this time, I've been thinking. Your sister and I want you to talk properly again... and come back. But I don't know if that's okay. I may destroy your sister even more. And me too... you could do worse to your sister."

I confess honestly inside my chest.

"Like when I was forced to, maybe your sister is going to do whatever she wants with me at her own convenience. I want to believe that it's not. But... the feeling of fear doesn't go away. I'm anxious."

"Yucky......"

As you listen to my words, Kami strokes my head.

And somehow I say it in a sad voice.

"... I'm sorry, Yucky"

"What?"

I didn't know why I was apologized for, and I was surprised.

Keep your eyes open, get your body up and face Kami.

"Why would Kami apologize?

"Nah, that's, well. There's a reason..."

Kami defies her gaze while saying her teeth are broken badly.

"Well, that's anyway. I think that's the best choice for Yucky."

"I don't know, I think I've been told the story."

"... sorry"

"No, you know, I don't know why, but it's hard to apologize."

Kami just apologizes and won't tell me why.

I'll wait for Kami to say something.

But the next word Kami said wasn't a reason to apologize.

"Anyway, because I'm on Yucky's side at all times, no matter what! - That's all I want you to believe. Because I'll always be there for you."

That's all Kami says, he disappears.

You disappeared to escape, and I'm grinning.

I don't know why they apologized, but let's just leave that alone.

Now it's about your sister first.

And... If Kami supports my choice, it's not if I'm still lost, I guess.

I'll be ready and face your sister.

And bring your sister back, and what to do from there - think about it.

Yes, I was clearly determined to lie down again and meditate on my eyes.
