Ramona
Haah, haah...

Ramona
Chris, where did you go...?

Ramona
She's not here...nowhere...

Ramona
Did she go home?

Christina
Rami.

Ramona
!

Christina
Sorry about earlier. I have an urgent matter, so I have to go now.

Ramona
...I see.

Ramona
I'm sorry things turned out this way. It's all my fault.

Ramona
Because I...did something unnecessary...

Christina
Fufu, you're exaggerating. You doing unnecessary things is just your normal behavior, isn't it?

Christina
...But I'm sorry. I really don't want to see that girl's face. When I talk to Kathrina, I start to hate myself for not being able to stay calm.

Ramona
Chris...

Christina
Memories are troublesome, aren't they? I came to Japan wanting to change, but they're holding me back. I'm not like you, Rami, someone who's bright and straightforward...

Ramona
...

Christina
Well, goodbye. Let's meet again.

Ramona
Ah...

Ramona
Yes, see you...

Ramona
...!

Koyomi
What are you doing standing there in a daze?

Ramona
Eh...?

Ramona
That voice, Koyomi?

Koyomi
Shh. Don't speak so loudly. I was surprised to see you here.

Ramona
...I see.

Ramona
Um, did you see?

Koyomi
Well, yes. It seems you've gotten yourself involved in something troublesome again?

Ramona
No, that was my fault...um...

Koyomi
...Ah, I see. Despite being warned, you still meddled unnecessarily.

Ramona
I just wanted to start over like in the old days.

Ramona
So that Kathrina wouldn't have to regret...I just wanted to save her.

Koyomi
Not everyone is seeking salvation. Is Kathrina-san the type of person who wants that kind of help?

Koyomi
Don't people regret the past precisely because they want to take responsibility for their actions?

Koyomi
What you think should be isn't necessarily the right answer.

Koyomi
Why don't you understand that what matters is how the people involved feel?

Ramona
...

Koyomi
By getting involved inappropriately, you might bring about an unwanted future.

Ramona
An unwanted future...

Kathrina
Just kidding. This was my fault. I haven't changed at all.

Koyomi
Decisions made under the pressure of others may lead to regret.

Ramona
...So I really did do something unnecessary?

Koyomi
You always do this. Please reflect on your actions a bit.

Ramona
...Yes.

Koyomi
...Haah. I want to line up for merchandise, so I'll take my leave now.

Ramona
...I...
