It was their first meeting,

Since Renko's disappearance.

There's a meeting with the president of Chikuzen Bank

Tomorrow, isn't there?

The appointment is from 2pm tomorrow.

Umm...

Would you have a drink with me?

Huh?!

"From here,"

"Your story begins,"

"The road goes on and on."

"If the rainbow-coloured rain pours down,"

"The sky will come alive."

"Behind your radiant smile,"

"There's a sorrowful sound."

"Next to each other with the present,"

"Like this is sweet."

"If we clasped hands, it would be warm,"

"If you hate it, we'll go our own ways."

"One by one, you'll become your own,"

"The road goes on."

Kayo was tense from nervousness.

What had the two, whose divorce had sent the world into chaos,

Come to her food stand for?

Speaking of which, you and Hana

Thought well of him, didn't you?

"He looks fierce, but surely he's wise and kind."

Yes.

Despite that, at the time,

I didn't even try to see one good thing about him.

I had closed my heart off from him...

Well, it couldn't be helped.

Now, if I think of it, she was an unfortunate bride.

I thought there wasn't a thing I couldn't buy with money.

But now, I finally understand.

In this world,

There's just one thing money can't buy you.

It's my loss.

The bill.

No, I'll take care of it.

What! You'll pay for the coal lord of this country?

Kayo! Here. Don't think about it!

Please let me treat you with the money I earned.

It's why I invited you.

I see.

In that case, it will be the only time you treat me.

Kayo, two more. Yes.

Renko...

Yes?

Are you happy now?

Yes.

I see.

I see...

Thank you for the treat.

Well, take care then.

Take care of yourself too.

Until then, goodbye.

Come! Tonight, we'll visit the geishas of Kagurazaka

And be merry!

Really... I'm glad.

We're home!

Welcome home...

What happened?!

Ryuichi asked me out for drinks on the way back home.

She's a monster!

I don't understand Renko!

He's been going on like this for a while.

Come on, Ryuichi. Ryuichi, here!

..Hello.

Ryuichi.. That coal lord!

She's happily having a drink with him!

Renko's disappointed by how we live now...

I know that...

She can't live luxuriously on a new lawyer's wages!

And with my nagging mother around..!

Ryuichi. Huh?

Renko...

Why did you go out to the stands with him?

What did you disappear with me for then?!

Ryuichi!

But, I understand why Ryuichi would've resorted

To drinking like that.

Even you too, Eiji?

Hanako.

Ryuichi.

Ren went to say a proper goodbye to her former husband.

She'll take responsibility,

And from now, give it her best at home for your son.

Ryuichi.

I'm not let down by how we live now.

All your mother does is scold me,

But I'll work hard so that she doesn't loathe me!

Renko...

I'm happy that I have a home to go back to.

Daigo reached out for us,

And our classmates from Shuwa sent us this much money!

Daigo, really, thank you very much.

There are many mothers looking forward to

The book of "The Prince and the Pauper."

We'll absolutely live up to everyone's expectations.

We will.

No matter how many years it takes, we'll complete it.

Eiji, from today, please persevere for us.

Saving money is important.

Now, we'll make a living doing what we can.

Thank you for buying something this expensive.

No, no, I should thank you.

Rebuilding the company and realising Ikuya's dream, no matter what.

That strong desire sprung the two into action.

And so, one day, as the two were working away...

Excuse me. Yes?

I have a message from President Kano.

It seems the branch manager, Mr Naito, of Chikuzen Bank in Tokyo,

Wants to ask about financing your work.

Sorry about the wait.

These are the plans for the publishing and printing company.

Please kindly help us.

We've spoken to President Kano Densuke.

The contract. Yes.

Dad!

Dad! We can buy a printing press!

We can publish "The Prince and the Pauper!"

It can't be!

It's true.

The bank financed us.

Ikuya and our dreams will come true!

Which bank?! Chikuzen.

Chikuzen Bank? Yes.

Kano Densuke spoke to them for us.

Really...

This flower is like you, right?

I would be happier with a tip.

It suits you well.

Unknown to her, those same 'forget-me-nots' had grown here...

Until then, farewell.
