Open your eyes!

Aya!

Please let me see Aya.

Just a peek will do.

I just want to see her.

Don't let Mr. Kei come in.

I don't want to see him!

Make him leave!

Don't let him come in!

Go and find her.

She doesn't want to see me.

Even so, you have to go.

(Sato)

Mom!

Please let me see Aya.

I really want to see her.

Please.

Aya has gone to a faraway place.

She is free from any pain now.

So stop coming here.

(Banrei-do)

Sir.

Sir!

What are you doing?

That's what I'm thinking too.

Her mom told me yesterday...

that she went to a faraway place.

I will go see her if I know where she went.

I saw Ms. Aya.

Actually,

I went to check on your boat yesterday.

Yesterday? When?

In the afternoon.

And...

there stood a beautiful woman next to the boat.

I later found out it was Ms. Aya's older sister.

That woman was really...

eye-catching.

She was with Ms. Aya,

but she stood out with her outfit.

She was really such a...

What about Aya?

How was she?

Well, she has always had a weak presence.

The point is, she was walking properly.

One step, two steps, three steps...

It doesn't matter if her mom hates me for it,

but I really want to talk to her.

It's okay.

Just a boo-boo.

Don't cry.

Don't cry.

It's nothing.

It's okay.

Don't cry.

He's asleep.

Miki suddenly fell ill.

I have to go to work. We didn't know what else to do.

So, it's only for a few days.

I know what you're asking, but...

things are a little unstable at our house right now.

You should know that.

We all want Aya to get over it quickly.

Of course I know.

But still, I'm counting on you.

So cute.

What a bother.

Sweet little baby, go to sleep

Let her be for now.

Go to sleep

Sweet little baby, go to sleep

Go to sleep

Sweet little baby

Sweet little baby

Is it okay for us to take care of the baby for a while?

He's adorable.

I'm counting on you.

He's cute, isn't he?

Very cute.

- We look alike, right? - He looks just like Miki.

Just like the mother?

Of course.

In the past,

pregnant women delivered their babies at home.

There were instances when the space wasn't hygienic...

or it was difficult to protect the lives of mothers and babies.

In order to protect the newborns...

by providing a clean and safe environment for delivery,

our company has used natural ingredients...

to create the Banrei-do soap.

The safety of the children is every parent's wish.

A child is more precious than anything else.

As survivors,

the task of preserving life for the future...

can be considered the mission of those who are alive.

(Preserving life for the future)

Thank you for today.

We are glad you came.

Excuse me.

Can I ask you a question, sir?

Sure, I hope I can give you an answer.

"Preserving life for the future."

I think it's great.

But...

I'm not sure what to do with my family's condition.

I have a son.

He was involved in an accident five years ago.

He was only four years old then.

I've been thinking a lot.

Those of us who were left behind,

what is the meaning of living?

Protect the baby, please!

My baby!

I've lost the baby!

Make him leave!

Don't let him come in!

I know.

Even though we are trying to get through it,

by having meals or going on holidays.

But we are still...

unable to forget about what happened to the child.

My apologies...

for suddenly telling you this.

I'm looking forward to next week.

Sir?

To me,

I have no right to brag in front of others.

I...

am not qualified to sell Banrei-do soap.

(Sato)

Where is your mom?

She took my sister's baby for a walk.

I see.

That's good.

It's hot!

Sorry.

Is your body recovering well?

The director often asks...

about how Ms. Aya is doing.

I'll get straight to the point then.

Ms. Aya, are you willing to meet Mr. Kei?

I know we have no right to ask,

but...

Mr. Kei is hurting.

Even once is enough.

Please meet with him.

I beg you!

If you still have the least bit of concern...

for Mr. Kei,

please give Mr. Kei a chance to explain himself.

Please, Ms. Aya!

Sorry.

I don't think...

I don't think we'll meet again.

Anna?

I couldn't reach you.

You made me worried.

Was it my fault?

It's my fault...

that it happened to Aya.

This isn't your fault.

What are you talking about?

Anna, what is it?

That day...

I gave Ms. Aya a document.

The abortion consent form.

What do you mean?

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Anna.

Tell me properly.

I saw the inheritance contract.

I thought...

I didn't want to lose you.

Kei wanted to give this to you,

but he left it at my place.

I brought it for you.

I told her you wanted to give her the document,

so I brought it for her.

I said that to her.

I purposely gave her the abortion consent form.

(Abortion consent form)

Is this really...

what you want?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I did something unforgivable.

You...

really did something unforgivable.

But...

I'm the one who made you like this.

I'm responsible for what happened.

No, it's all me.

It's my fault.

Welcome home.

By the way, Hayato came by yesterday.

Is that so?

He plans to ask Ms. Aya to move to Okinawa together.

He invited her.

This city is filled with unhappy memories.

Moving to a faraway place...

can be good for her.

She doesn't want to be close to me, is that it?

Okay, I'll go to Okinawa too then.

In the past months,

you've done so many wrongs to Ms. Aya.

However, she never lost her smile.

Smile.

Kei.

What is the most important thing right now?

You should know now.

The most important thing now is...

(Preserving life for the future)

Before I start, I wish to apologize to everyone.

- What? - What's this about?

Did something happen?

Last week,

while talking about preserving life for the future,

I mentioned carrying forward our memories,

but that was wrong.

Wrong?

If that was the case,

those who couldn't bear children,

what will happen to them?

Those that unfortunately lost their children...

and fell into despair.

What will happen to them?

"Preserving life."

Simply using the phrase...

can hurt many people.

Carrying memories forward into the future...

isn't limited to lives.

I recently learned this lesson.

Even when your own life cannot continue,

as long as you don't give up,

our thoughts and memories will definitely go on.

Because of that,

we have to be healthy.

We have to keep smiling.

The most important thing...

is to ensure the people we love are happy.

Who is it that you cherish?

Parents.

Siblings.

Friends.

Not to forget, lovers.

This soap contains...

the sentiment of wanting our beloved to be healthy.

Hoping to always see their smiles.

For me,

this is the true meaning of preserving life into the future.

Good job!

I pray that Aya can find her smile again.

May she return to a peaceful life quickly.

Mom.

What is it?

I...

am going to move to Okinawa.

Goodbye.

How long do you plan to stay there?

At least until the business is on track.

We will try our best for two years for now.

Is it okay not to see Kei?

Go on then.

Well, we're leaving then.

Everything will work out!

Good luck!

Is this really okay?

Wait!

Are you not done, you jerk?

Aya.

Mr. Kei.

You're the one...

who taught me, the post-it girl,

to be more confident.

I'm truly glad.

Thanks to you,

I'm able...

to start liking myself.

But...

if this continues,

I'll go back to my post-it self.

The day will come...

when I can truly say...

that I am confident in myself.

If I don't leave now,

I'll regret it.

Aya.

Go.

I won't forget about you.

Not now,

not ever.

I will pray...

for your happiness.
