Shinjiro!

How's Asa?

The wound to her stomach was really bad.

The surgery isn't over yet.

It's not?

Chiyo...

That was terrible, wasn't it?

Try to be strong.

The surgery was successful.

However, she lost a lot of blood.

So she's still in danger.

Just in case, I think it might be good if you notified

her relatives, and anyone else important to her.

I see... I'll do that.

Telegram!

Mom? It's a telegram.

That's unusual to get something like that...

Mom?

Asa...!

It can't be...!

Hatsu?

Hatsu! What's wrong?

ASA CRITICAL

In no time at all, the rumor spread through town that

Kano-ya's Asa had been stabbed by a ruffian.

How could this happen?

Is it true that someone stabbed the mistress?

Is she okay?

She's fine.

She's alive, so please calm down.

Everyone! Please! All of you! Calm down!

How can we stay calm?

Is Asa Shirooka all right?

To begin with... It's all your fault, isn't it?

Get out! Get out of here!

Dear!

Dear!

What's this?

OSAKA KANO-YA ASA SHIROOKA IN CRITICAL CONDITION

Mom! You didn't have to come with your had leg.

I can't sit still at a time like this.

You poor thing!

How could this happen?

There are a lot of people outside the hospital.

She's in no condition to have any visitors, and

yet they're still waiting.

Chiyo!

Grandma...

I'll stay with your mom today, so go home for just a little

while, and get some rest.

She's right. You, too, Ume,

No, I can't...

Chiyo... Please get some rest.

Shinjiro...

This is Asa's younger brother, Tadatsugu Imai.

How's my sister?

I see...

Asa... Asa! Pull yourself together.

I know how busy you are.

Thank you for coming all the way from Tokyo

No... Ever since I took over as the family head, my

father hasn't been doing too well.

Your father?

My mother's been by his side to take care of him,

so neither of them could come.

Is that right?

Even after several days, Asa's condition still hadn't improved.

Asa Shirooka... After meeting you, I made up my mind...

I'm going to return to the government.

Dear! You've finally decided to go back?

Isn't that why you got me to meet her?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Never mind. Just write.

Also, Asa Shirooka, I want to help you to get your

new and sacred university for women known

throughout our country.

For the sake of Japan's future, I pray for your

recovery from the bottom of my heart.

Your friend, Shigenobu Okuma.

That's right... There's no way Mistress Shirooka will die...

She won't die!

To begin with, it's all your fault isn't it?

Mom... Does it hurt?

Mom...

Mom!

Were you still here?

I can manage by myself here...

Didn't I tell you to go home with Grandma

tonight, and get some sleep?

Dad... I...

I thought Mom would never die.

Doesn't that sound strange?

But... I thought no matter what happened she wouldn't die,

or she would survive anything.

What are you saying?

Your mom's human.

What am I going to do if Mom dies?

If she dies like this...

Asa...

Asa!

You mustn't go anywhere.

I'm sure you already know...

That I love you.

I'll support you in anything you do.

I won't get angry no matter what.

But if you die before me... I will never forgive you.

I won't forgive you.

I won't forgive you if you leave me behind.

Asa...

No!

Asa! Did you just say something?

You did, didn't you?

Say it again!

No!

I don't want to die yet.

That's right. You don't, do you?

You have to get up.

Even if you fall nine times you'll get up ten times.

Fall nine times, get up ten times.

Fall nine times, get up ten times...

That's right... Fall nine times, get up ten times.

Fall nine times, get up ten times...

What am I doing?

My husband...?

Asa!

Asa!

You really came back.

Asa made a miraculous recovery.
