The chapter ends with a conversation between saki and kasuga. saki asks if he can read the chapter after it's finished, and he tells her that he'll do so when the chapter is done. He asks her if she's going to college, and she says yes, but she'd like to go to the same school as him. She tells him that spring break is coming up soon, so they'll have to decide where to go for a while. She asks if they want to go back to the town where they were born, and saki says that they should, since it would be boring. She also says that she wants to see where she grew up, but that she doesn't think there's much of a place there. She says she'll never betray him, and that she won't tell him what happened when she was in middle school. She promises to get back to Gunma, where she was born. She'll give her dad the phone, and tells him to come too, since he's dying of a blood clot. He agrees, but says that he can't go back because he has to face the scar on his father's face.
