If I can do my best to play it, I’m sure Kaa-sama will definitely... “That’s enough, stop it!!!” I’m sure... I’m sure that she would be happy. Why, why, why!? I’ve been trying so hard! Even though I don’t have time to play because there are so many lessons I had to go to, or being bullied at school for acting like a brat, I didn’t find it hard at all! As long as Kaa-sama keeps praising me. As long as Yuki admires me. Why does no one recognize my hard work! Please praise me! Stroke my head gently! Just like before! “About Yumi... Don’t worry about your mother. You should continue studying hard as usual.” As usual? Does Ojii-sama want me to keep working hard just like before? How could I possibly do that? That... why, why don’t you understand my suffering! It hurts. It really hurts. Ojii-sama’s wish is very painful. Living with Kaa-sama is very painful. Yuki and Ayano’s innocent gazes were... painful. I’ve had enough of this. I.... don’t want to live in this house anymore. “So late, Suou, aren’t you going home~?” “Oi, oi, are you skipping lessons~? Don’t you have lessons to attend~?” Noisy... Those nagging kids. Always, always, always........ I might as well teach them a lesson—no. They don’t deserve me. Just ignore them, I have to ignore them... “Gosh, how boring. Always acting up.”
