In this short scene, Akiko tells Hiroyuki that if things get really bad, she'll come back to the hospital. Hiroyuki's mom, however, still has an awful impression of her son, and she's worried that he's going to run away with his girlfriend. Awkwardly, Hiroyuki tells her that he doesn't know how long they'll be apart from each other, and he apologizes to her for being so rude to him the last time they saw each other. He says he'll visit her the next time he sees her, and that he thinks her mom hates him. He's just thinking that she changed, and wants her to accept him as soon as possible, even if it means that they have to leave the country. He also says that he and Hiroyuki can't travel because they have a customer in the country, and they don't want to go anywhere. He apologizes for being late, and says that even though he was so nice to her, she can come anytime she wants, even after she was nice to him before. He tells her to go for another drink, and then he goes off to find Hiroyuki.
