Half a year has passed since Ichimura-sensei was arrested, and peace has finally returned to the hospital. MC comes to visit a still comatose Hime-chan. MC recalls visiting her family home after Ichimura-sensei’s arrest:
MC’s father: I can’t fully believe everything that happened with Ichimura-sensei but I am really relieved that you are okay MC.
MC explains it was thanks to Okura. He says that Okura had come to visit him just before and had resolutely declared he is going after the Hong Kong mafia. MC is shocked and her father confesses that after the incident before, they had come directly to target him. Okura had insisted on going alone and MC’s father had strongly told him not to but was unable to stop him and he believes Okura won’t be returning to the Ryumon gang.
It’s been half a year since then and she hasn’t heard anything from Okura. She can’t believe he gave up his own life in order to secure safety for the gang. MC takes a breath thinking over all the events of the past year when:
MC can’t believe she is awake and hits the “call nurse” button right away. Sumika and a recently returned Wataya-kun come in, asking Hime-chan if she knows where she is etc.
Hime-chan answers “the hospital?” and slowly starts moving her hand and touches her face. She exclaims how bad her skin is and that she needs to get to work on it lol and everyone laughs, relieved that she seems her usual self.
Everyone comes to visit her, and comments on how long it took for her to wake up and Karen jokes that it was hard work coming to visit her every week. Hime-chan wants to hear how everyone spent the half year while she was asleep. Ami, as usual has been working herself to the ground with her career but doesn’t mind as she enjoys it. BUT she reveals that she properly cleans up after herself after that incident and has quit smoking. Kazemiya-kun is now a project leader and as a result, his hobby time has decreased (you know what that means). Karen also, is very busy with work and the business is doing so well that she is in the midst of preparations for opening a second branch.
Hime-chan also asks after Tokiwa-kun, with Kazemiya-kun replying that he has one more year until he’s released and that he recently sent them a letter. He is still studying to become a doctor and MC truly believes he will become a great doctor, even if the path ahead will be difficult. Hime-chan questions about Eitaro’s happenings, with MC responding that he has been travelling around to apologise to his victims which has resulted in charges being dropped against him (UGH seriously??). He’s been travelling and studying to re-evaluate himself. Hime-chan exclaims how she can’t wait to get back to the share house and resume her life and encourages MC to also look and move forward.
After work, MC is on her balcony staring blankly up at the night sky. She realises no one has asked her about Yuu-kun or Okura, perhaps out of consideration. Suddenly, someone appears from behind her, covering her mouth.
Yuu-kun: It’s been a while, MC. I won’t do anything, so please don’t call out. Promise?
MC nods and he lets go.
Yuu-kun apologises for surprising her and that he’s come to apologise. He conveys that he’s sorry for scaring her that time. MC is wary that this is all an act but expresses that she is happy he is okay. He points out that aspect of her makes her naïve but that’s precisely the part of MC he is drawn in by. He smiles a little sadly at her and pats her on the head. He reveals that she can relax, because the Hong Kong mafia will stop targeting the Ryumon gang because so long as someone like Okura is around, they are unable to take action. Hearing his name, MC questions him on what he knows about Okura but Yuu-kun doesn’t know anything. Yuu-kun remarks he doesn’t have any more time now so he has to go, but that next time instead of as the Hong Kong mafia, he wants to appear before MC as Yuki Kamakura. With that, he leaps lightly over the balcony and disappears into the night. MC thinks to herself that it would be good if they could meet again in future.
Unable to sleep, MC goes to get some water. Drinking it on the sofa, she remembers Yuu-kun’s words and wonders just who Okura is if even Yuu-kun has no idea on his whereabouts. She wonders if she will never see Okura again but no matter how many times she voices that in her heart, Okura won’t reply. As she starts to cry, Karen appears asking what’s wrong. MC reveals she is concerned about Okura and wonders why she only thinks of him.
Karen’s reply is that it’s only natural - after all, Okura is MC’s first love. MC is surprised and Karen is unruffled, knowing that MC hadn’t even realised it. Karen points out that MC’s hard work on practice, exams etc. was really just to gain Okura’s acknowledgement but MC denies it, replying that if anything, it was due to her annoyance at him treating/seeing her as a child. Karen retorts that it means MC wanted him to see her as an adult. It’s as if realisation finally hits her, and she sees that she wanted Okura to view the two of them as true equals. Karen asks MC what she thinks of Okura, and she answers that she loves him… maybe (her exact words haha). MC vows that if she were to meet Okura one more time then she will convey these feelings honestly.
3 months later, Hime-chan is discharged and there is a big celebration on the rooftop. MC’s father had declared that until he sees Okura again, he can’t die and has been earnestly looking for him. Cassie whacks MC on the back, telling her not to look so dark at a celebration but MC complains that she saw through the liars yet her fated person is nowhere. Cassie calls her rude for accusing her fortunetelling of being a failure and that her destined partner truly exists and that he will appear soon.
At that time, Haruichi appears on the rooftop lol but he announces he’s brought the late guest. Behind him stands…
Okura: Long time no see, kid.
Everyone is surprised and expresses their concern while he was away and he apologises. Haruichi whispers into MC’s ear that it was extremely hard and tiresome to find him, and that the repayment will be high. Karen pushes MC towards Okura who remarks that he has something to tell MC, whose reply is “what a coincidence, so do I.” Everyone smiles at the two, as they leave the rooftop.
They arrive at a café, bathed in the afternoon sunset. MC questions why he went alone on such a dangerous mission (of chasing the Hong Kong mafia) without saying anything. MC expresses how deeply concerned she was for him, especially because he disappeared suddenly and made zero contact.
He’s silent and looks away. MC further presses – who exactly is he to be able to take down the Hong Kong mafia singlehanded and also always be saving her? She begs him to answer. Okura doesn’t make a single move to respond and her sadness grows stronger, more so than her anger. She reflects that her outburst makes her seem childlike, and they weren’t the true words she wanted to convey anyway. She sighs – “It doesn’t matter what you are, I love you.”
Okura: Wha-? What did you just…
MC continues on, telling him that no matter what secret he has, if he doesn’t want to share it she won’t push. But, she just begs him to not go anywher-
Okura: Damn it.
Okura pulls her by the arm strongly into a hug.
Okura: You don’t even understand how I feel and you just go and say that… You’ve always been like that. I’ve tried desperately to keep my self-control intact and then you go ahead and break it. You have no idea just how much I…
MC feels his strong arms around her, and the warmth in the places that make contact, and the smell of tabacco… The reason he didn’t tell her about the Hong Kong mafia was because he knew MC would launch herself straight in. She can’t deny it. It makes MC happy that he was looking out for her but however,
MC: I don’t want to just be protected. I want to fight together alongside you Okura.
Okura: You really are something, aren’t you. You said you didn’t mind what I was. In that case…
Okura: Are you prepared to go to hell with me?
MC recalls he’s said this before, meaning it seems his future is fated to be dark, and it must have something to do with his secret. Many possibilities swirl in her mind but she’s decided.
MC: If it means I can stay by your side, then the destination doesn’t matter. Whether it’s to hell or wherever, take me with you.
Okura: Don’t forget those words just now.
He slowly closes his eyes and leans closer, giving MC a kiss. Normally he’s quite rough but to kiss so gently, MC thinks it’s unfair. When it was dangerous, he was always the fastest to get to MC, and saved her countless times. Although he can be hard to understand, he is a really kind person at heart. Before she realised it, she was drawn in by him. No, it was probably long before that…
MC opens her eyes mid-kiss, and seeing his red tinged face wonders if it’s due to the sunset. MC complains about his rough facial hair and the scent of tabacco.
Okura: Shut up. Be quiet… and open your mouth.
He makes MC face him and gives her a very strong kiss. She wants to support him no matter what and conveys that through the kiss.
“What does happiness mean to you?”
*Spoken from MC’s point of view*
The me from before, wanted to leave the underworld far behind and live a peaceful life. But, I’m different now. I will live like myself, that’s my happiness.
-end-
