In the meantime, Hirokazu and Miyoko have come to see what's going on between them. Miyoko apologizes for what she's done, and Hiroki says he's sorry, too, but he blames Miyoko for all of it. He's not the only one who's been bullying her, he says. She's the one who bullied her, and she should be punished for it. She says she can't blame anyone else for what happened, because it's her fault, too. She tells him to go home and forget about it.
