The people who exchanged souls, Tomomi and Kaoru.
The two who were living out the other's life
The two who were living out the other's life...
I will live with Kento-kun as his Mother.
And you will live with Yosuke-san as a woman.
I will become a Mother and you will return to being a woman.
How about it?
Alright.
That's the path that will bring you guys happiness, right?
Is your health really going to be okay?
I'll be fine.
If something does happen, I will definitely contact you.
Yeah.
Sorry for keeping you waiting.
Not at all.
I'll tell you my conclusion.
Please do.
Wanna give it a try?
How did it go?
They found it has metastasized...
...in two places.
Seems it's progressing quickly. I'm already at Stage Four.
It seems...
...I will die.

(Farewell Me)
Episode 8 "Life For Whose Sake"
It's incurable?
Yeah...
Seems difficult.
I usually don't think of myself as being young, but as a middle-aged woman already.
But still, for the time being, I feel young.
Even at a time like this, I can only talk about how young I am, right?
I hate this already.
That's why...
...it's difficult.
I'm sorry.
Eh?
That my perseverance might not have been enough.
I'm sorry.
For not being able to protect your body.
If my body dies...
Then I will disappear from this world.
How can you be so calm about that?
Because I had prepared myself to some extent...
...when I was told I had breast cancer.
"Prepared yourself"? You're okay with this?
You're going to die, you know!
Though there's nothing wrong with Kaoru's at all, because of my body...
I can't understand that.
How can you have such a calm expression?
There's no way I could be calm, now is there?
Even I don't want to die for someone else, either!
That would be impossible!
But...
For you alone...
For you alone... it's different.
Eh?
Gonna kill yourself?
I won't try to stop you. I just think that's the lowest though.
What? Are you some tragic heroine?
What would you know anyway?
I have no reason to know.
It may have been painful up till now...
...but can't we become friends?
If we were friends...
...then we could probably overcome most anything.
Sure.
Thank you.
Eh?
It's nothing.
At that time...
...when you and I became friends...
The one I thought who had really been saved...
...was me.
Because you were there, I was able to live.
When I met you...
...I also began a new life.
That's why...
...if it's for your sake, I can die.
What is that?!
What are you saying?
I don't understand that at all!
What's the matter, Mama?
No. It's nothing.
Don't worry, it's nothing.
Are you okay?
Are you okay, Kaoru-obasan?
Thank you.
Thank you...
Say...
Hello?
All right.
I see...
I can't believe it somehow.
Are you okay, Tomomi?
Yeah.
There's no way you could be okay, is there?
Surprisingly... I am okay... right now.
Yeah.
It's not you, Yosuke...
...so you don't have to struggle with it.
I'm sorry.
What's that?
Why are you apologizing?
I just thought I've put you through a great deal, Yosuke.
Such a thing...
What is it I can do?
What do you want?
Wait just a little longer.
Because my healing system will be here soon.
Eh?
It's come.
Let's go!
Wait!
Let's hurry and play! Hurry!
Thank you.
Because Haruko is moving out of her current home.
Is that right?
Yes. For personal reasons.
Please come this way.
Thank you very much.
Ah...
To your happiness.
Thank you very much.
Ah... is that right.
Yes.
But you haven't found a new one yet, right?
That's right. It's quite difficult.
Because our apartment is company owned...
...I may have to leave it.
When I think about my future life...
...I'll have to look for a much smaller place.
But first I need to find one right away.
Screenings to get one are strict nowadays.
Thank goodness.
Yeah.
Eh? "Thank goodness"?
Because I want you to come here.
All of you come live here with me.
Eh?
Me come here?
Right.
And Kaoru, too...
And Yosuke too; all together.
Eh? What do you mean?
You can stay here and take your time looking for a new home.
Right, Kaoru?
Yeah.
I want all of us to live together.
I want to be together with Kaoru and Haruko.
And with Yosuke and Kento, too.
I want all of us to be together.
Tomomi, what's going on? Has something happened?
Because I won't have much longer to do that.
Eh? What do you mean?
Tomomi, does this mean...
Let's enjoy it!
Okay?
Sorry about this somehow.
If we've decided to live together...
...I'd hate to go and return home again, so for now I'll just get my luggage.
I want to be with her from tonight on.
Ah, no, that'll be fine.
Since I'll bring my luggage out right away...
...would you be okay waiting in the car?
Ah, I'll help you.
It's messy, and I don't want you to see it.
Very well. I'll wait.
Um...
Yes?
You hold me in contempt, don't you?
I do.
You hate me, don't you?
I do.
You would, wouldn't you?
After all...
No, I can understand that.
Couldn't we have a truce?
Since we'll be living together; and for Tomomi's sake, as well.
Very well.
Eh?
Ah...
Thank you very much.
No, thank you, too.
I'll be under your care.
No, think nothing of it.
Still, there's that...
The me before...
...really hated talk about people who committed adultery and the like.
I think that's true of all housewives, though.
I thought they're unforgivable, bad and mistaken people.
But now, it's a little...
Because I know that my ex-husband...
...isn't a bad person.
"It wasn't just that; there was something else," I thought.
A something he just couldn't resolve.
That's why...
...I don't think that badly of you, Yosuke-san.
Is that right.
But I don't think you're particularly in the right though!
Yes.
Difficult, isn't it?
Well, I seriously wanted to make the both of them happy...
...and I thought I could do that.
Huh?
I thought such a man/woman relationship was the best way.
What is that about?
For a bright guy like you, Yosuke-san, you're actually stupid, aren't you?
I'm disappointed somehow.
When you compare a man like my fool husband to you, he's very pure.
I don't mean that as a compliment though.
But still, I can understand his feelings at least.
It's men like you, Yosuke-san, that I hate the most. You're the lowest!
What's that, "I wanted to make both happy"?
That's just convenient for you.
How stupid!
Is there something funny?
Um... weren't we in a truce?
Ah... that's right.
I'm sorry.
Not at all.
Looking at them like this, they all seem happy, don't they?
Like they don't have any troubles.
That just can't be though.
Yes.
But...
Why Tomomi?
Why?
It doesn't go with her.
Tomomi and unhappiness just don't go together.
And besides...
...I'm anxious about Kaoru.
She's scared somehow.
Scared?
Yes.
Because those two are like twins.
They've been a little strange recently.
It's my fault, isn't it?
It's not.
It isn't about a man.
I can tell that much.
I can tell.
Because... we're best friends, after all.
Um...
Yes?
I'm sorry. May I cry?
I was controlling myself in front of those two earlier.
Yes.
I'm sorry! I'm going to cry!
Here you go.
I have one.
Still...
...when I said I wanted all of us to live together, those were my true feelings.
I want to experience what a large family is like.
Ah...
But I want to go out to a movie location.
I want to do the planning.
I want to read scripts.
I want to read and critique them.
I wanted that all this time, but I was in this body.
Ah...
And since it's fine just to throw away all the things in my apartment...
...we'll go together for that next time.
Okay?
And then...
This is just wrong.
Huh?
I still think this is a mistake.
It's definitely a mistake.
What is?
This is wrong.
It's definitely wrong!
You being in my useless body and then dying because of it, is just wrong!
It's definitely wrong!
Eh... Tomomi?
But it's true, isn't it?
Kento and the others will hear us, so quit it.
Sorry.
No.
Tomomi.
Sorry. I...
...just don't know what's what.
I understand.
It's okay.
Let's enjoy this. Okay?
That's...
...my wish to you.
Let's do this.
Really? You guys are going to be in my home?
Seems so.
For always?
I don't know.
All right!
Let's get along, Kento.
Oh! Sure!
Oh!
Socks...
There!
School bags...
Ah... I'll take that.
Thank you.
There!
What's the matter? Are you okay?
Eh? Yes.
No...
Eh?
Yes.
Are you okay?
What's going on?
What on earth was that?
Haruko-san.
Don't worry. I'm not sick. Just wait.
Welcome.
That will be 616 yen.
You've given me 1,000 yen.
It's fine just as is.
Yes. I understand.
Here.
Where are your restrooms?
They are in the back on the left-hand side.
I'm home!
Where did you go?
Yeah. For some tea.
I bought some cream puffs.
Here, some dessert.
I see...
Thank goodness you came back.
I thought you had gone.
Why?
I'm not one to up and go.
Why?
"Why"?
Is it, "I wouldn't abandon the woman I love"?
Ah, yeah, right.
Since I love you, I wouldn't do that.
But you did.
Eh?
You left the wife you loved and married, didn't you?
Ah...
Well, that was...
Once you were sick of her...
...you calmly abandoned her, didn't you?
Well, "calmly"...
I couldn't do that, Fuyu-chan.
But you did, didn't you?
Don't say crazy things. That's a false accusation.
Why?
"Why"...?
There's no way I could do that calmly, now is there?
If only because of the children.
And besides...
...I'm the one who chose you, Fuyu-chan.
And your way of saying, "calmly abandoned her," is strange.
It wasn't calmly!
Even if we are divorced...
While maybe not as a woman, but I guess I do worry about her as a person.
Is that wrong?
Because earlier...
Earlier?
Well...
You went to see how she was.
You lied.
No, that was...
You did lie to me.
That's the lowest!
Why did you lie?!
You lied to me!
Sorry.
I know the power of tanks!
Watch!
It's swimming! It's swimming!
Then the dolphin!
You do it too, Kento. You swim yours, too.
Kento's having so much fun!
What are you doing?
What's the matter, Haruko?
Eh?
Haruko, is something wrong?
Eh? No... Ah! Ah, I'm sorry!
I'm back.
Welcome home.
What is it, Haruko?
It's like you're hiding something from us.
Eh?
Are you not feeling well?
Well, um...
Haruko?
Is that it?
Ah... On the way back, we stopped off at a pharmacy.
Ah... Well, um...
Ah, I'm sorry.
Did I say something I shouldn't have?
But I was a little worried. I'm sorry.
It's not your fault, Yosuke-san.
Thank you for worrying about me.
Haruko...
Please confess.
Anyhow, you won't be able to keep it in forever.
Are you ill?
Well, um...
It seems I'm pregnant.
Eh?!
Pregnant?!
With whose child?
My husband's of course.
Unlike other people I know, I'm not that kind of woman.
Ah, sorry.
Um... I didn't mean that.
Eh? And... what'll you do?
And, that is... you were getting along together that well, huh?
That's what I meant; you were getting along... Right?
Right?
It just happened!
What's this out of the blue about?
It's okay.
I've already packed up the futons.
It's okay. Right here'll do.
That's like young people... Eh?
Hold on, hold on.
Whaa! Hold on...
Hold on there!
It had been a few years, so...
Thinking back on it now, he must have been cheating on me then.
Ah! Thinking about it pisses me off! Geez!
I'm... glad though, Haruko.
You giving birth to a life...
...makes me happy.
Yeah. Happy.
There's both death and life for them...
...but there is a reason for life being born.
What's more, to Haruko.
I guess I am happy!
Congratulations.
That's not...
Sorry, sorry.
I'm being irresponsible, aren't I?
Sorry.
Tomomi...
I'm sorry.
It must be tough for you, after all...
Stop it.
Eh?
Please stop deciding that it's natural...
...to accept dying the way you have been.
Kaoru...
Sorry... I'll stop. Okay?
Wrong.
I am not Kaoru!
Kaoru!
Come with me a minute.
Sorry. I'm sorry.
But...
...I hate this.
I want to go back.
I want to go back to myself.
What are you saying?
I hate it!
I hate having this feeling of relief somewhere in my heart!
That who disappears from this world won't be me.
That I'll always be able to see Kento and Yosuke...
I hate thinking such things.
It's unforgivable!
I hate it so much it makes me sick to my stomach!
That...
...can't be helped.
I hate it!
Because it's my life, isn't it?
It might be short and sad and painful...
...and I think it's terrible...
...but that was the fate that was given to me, wasn't it?
I want to take responsibility for that kind of life myself.
Otherwise...
Otherwise, I couldn't bear to live!
Please, Kaoru.
Say, please!
Somehow, please!
Let's go back. We should go back!
Say, please, Kaoru!
I understand, but...
I understand...
...your feelings, but...
But...
There's nothing we can do about it.
Since it's become like this.
I'm sure there's some meaning to this.
In that case, I...
...want to spend the time I have left...
...preparing myself...
...and smiling.
Right, Tomomi?
Please.
Okay?
Sorry...
I'm sorry.
The one it's most painful for is you Kaoru, isn't it?
I'm sorry.
Here!
Okay!
Eh?!
Oh no... What?
What is this?
I have no idea...
We've...
...exchanged places?
Exchanged places?
I've been wanting to see you.
Wrong... You're wrong.
Don't come after me!
I feel I'm coming to love Kento-kun.
But... But!
Even if I do have such feelings... that child isn't my child.
That family... That family... It isn't mine.
I think about that every day!
It would have been better if we had never become friends!
Not one good thing has come out of you and I being together!
I shouldn't have had you as a friend! Geez, I hate you!
Thank you.
Eh?
It's okay.
It's your face, after all.
It's a cute face, isn't it?
I love it.
Of men or women...
...doesn't matter...
...the one I love best in the world is Tomomi.
Me, too.
The one I love best in this world is Kaoru.
Say.
Huh?
Somehow, kissing my own face is...
...like that, huh?
What'll I do...
Ah... what a problem.
Ah...
'Morning.
Good morning... Kaoru.
Good morning... Haruko.
It's me, Tomomi.
Kento.
