This chapter opens with the release of all the cards from the siege, and the narrator laments that he has lost all of them except for the cards that were stolen from the school. He wonders who stole the cards, but he doesn't think his power played a role in it. He also wonders where the mirror went. The teachers have asked the two of them to draw portraits of each other, and he and Chiharu have agreed to do so. He tells Chiharu that he went on a walk with him the other night, and they talked about all of the places they have visited, but they also talked about life in Japan, too. He hopes that this will be the last time they will see each other. He says that he never wants to forget his loved ones, and that he wants them to always be happy. Chiharu says that she wants to be happy as well, too, because she has always been alone, and no one has ever said anything about her being worth less than anyone else. The narrator wonders aloud if the time has stopped, and she wonders if it is because of her mom's watch. She thinks that it is the watch that has set the time in motion, but she realizes that she is the only one who can move the time.
