Mortis

...

Then, let's confirm this matter later in the board meeting... Please make time for it.

Nyamu

Excuse me.

Yūtenji-san, what's the matter?

Nyamu

May I take a moment of your time? I have something to discuss with you all.

Umiri

Good work. I'm off.

Oh, good work. Once you're back in Tokyo, I'll hear the details from you.

Uika

...

Sorry to rush you, but could we schedule the recording for tomorrow? For this show, we have no choice but to have sumimi perform.

Uika

Yes.

Sakiko

...

Uika

(Saki-chan...)

Nyamu

...

The famous girl band Ave Mujica announced their disbandment! Their agency also addressed the reasons for the disbandment.

Is it true they announced the disbandment without even performing a single song? That's too harsh.

I took a break and bought train tickets, im crying. Can't recover from it.

It's sad that they disbanded, but Mutsumi-chan was cooking till the end~! She was screaming a lot, is she okay...?

Really disbanding? No~~! What's gonna happen to everyone!?

Nyamu

...

Sakiko

...

Uika

You don't have to answer. You can stay here as long as you want.

Uika

Even without Mujica, will you stay with me?

Sakiko

...

Sakiko

(Even if I continue staying here... Uika will forgive me...)

Sakiko

(That's why I can't...)

Uika-san, could you talk about Mujica's disbandment? It's said you broke up due to bad relationships.

Uika

Ah, I don't think it's about Mujica right now...

Right now, she's Ui-chan from sumimi!

Uika

Mana-chan...

Uika

I'm back. Saki-chan, I brought pudding home! Saki-chan...?

(Sakiko)

To Uika: Thank you for everything.

Uika

...!!

Sakiko

I'm back now.

...

Sakiko

You fell asleep with it on again...

And now! Today's guests are from unique backgrounds! Let's first introduce Nyamuchi!

Nyamu

Here I am!

We see you on variety shows every day~

Nyamu

Thank you! We had that setup of us being dolls, right?

Ahaha! Do you want to start from there? But now, you are doing videos, streaming, and all sorts of things, right?

Nyamu

I want those who support me to feel like, "Being a fan of Nyamuchi is amazing!" So—

Sakiko

I should finish this assignment now before it's too late.

Seriously~ Uika-chan is so pitiful. sumimi really had it rough, huh? They went through so much to fill Mujica's gap.

That's right~ And Minami-san said that Mutsumi-chan locked herself in her room and hasn't come out.

No way! She was so popular! What a waste~ Ave Mujica's disbandment must have been a huge blow.

You think? They just threw it out like "Yeah, disband~" In the end, wasn't it just a rich girl's band game?

Good morning~

Uika

Morning.

Ah... good morning! Oh, I have an urgent meeting to attend!

Me, me too!

Unbelievable. It's been a month, and people are still saying that stuff.

Uika

Sorry.

Ui-chan, you don't need to apologize.

Uika

...

What's wrong?

Uika

Hmm... I can't get in touch with Saki-chan.

Oh, the keyboardist?

Nyamu

Good morning~

Ah, good morning, Nyamu-chan!

Uika

Morning...

Nyamu

...

Nyamu

Fukurokoji-san, is the studio free after three? I want to practice my vocals.

Uika

...

Sakiko

Again...

Sakiko

...

Uika

Hey... Umiri-chan. Have you contacted anyone since then?

Umiri

No.

Uika

Ah... What about Saki-chan? Do you know how she's doing?

Umiri

Why don't you check for yourself?

Uika

...

Umiri

I have work to do, so I'll take my leave now.

Taki

...

Sakiko

Grandfather.

...

I've seen the news. You must have learned a lot too. You don't need to worry about anything.

I covered the compensation for the canceled tour. Come back.

Sakiko

But... Father...

*Sigh*... Didn't I already say he's no longer part of the Togawa family?

Sakiko

...

Sakiko

(I've ended up coming back here again...)

Sakiko

(Abandoning my father and disbanding the band...)

Sakiko

(Holding the memento doll... alone again.)

Sakiko

I... hate myself.

Nyamu

Phew.

Nyamu

Yes, this is Yūtenji. Huh? You're talking about a stage play? The audition invitation came directly from the producer?

Nyamu

Ah...

Nyamu

I'm still working on improving my acting skills. Right now, I'd like to focus on variety shows...

Nyamu

Yes... I know it's such a rare opportunity, I'm really sorry. Thank you.

Nyamu

Have a nice day.

Nyamu

Uika

Uika

Saki-chan...
