The next day, the girls are walking in the market when they hear each other's voices. They realize that they've been talking for a long time, but they're not sure what to make of it. The girls tell each other that they don't want to apologize for what they said on Oshima, and that it's their fault that they didn't say anything weird about it in the first place. They're also not sure why they haven't told each other sooner, but the truth is that hina isn't home right now, and she'll be back in a few months. They talk about what's going on at school, and the girls wonder if they'll have to tell their teachers about their new jobs once school starts in two weeks.
