What? l came back because of Nozomi's crisis.

That ki nd of thi ng? ! Don't y ou understand?
Dear, let's tel l Nozomi e verythi ng .
The real reason y ou've escalated y our sup port of Nozomi
to this le vel is, after al l ,
the secret y ou're k eepi ng .
But because of it, y our uncertai nties j ust g row,
and that is d rivi ng y ou crazy.
S o, to stop y ou, there's nothi ng else to do,
but to i nform Nozomi of the secret.
Nozomi , please l isten w el l to w hat l 'm goi ng to say.
We d id n't w ant to lose the bond w e ha ve w ith y ou.
S o w e could n't tel l y ou this, but now there's no other w ay.
Nozomi , please stay cal m and l isten. You aren't our real . . .
Don't l isten ! Nozomi , don't l isten ! Al l this is a l ie !
No, it's al l the truth.
Father!
Why?
This is the other person w ho knows the w hole truth.

H a ve y ou forgotten about me?
O h, from that ti me. . .
You, w ho d id n't ha ve chi ld ren,

l w as the one present then.
Then my real parents?
l 'm sorry. lt's a shame, but l don't know. But y ou are not alone.
When w e adopted y ou from S amuel , y ou had this.
This is?
When y ou w ere a baby, it w as found w ith y ou.
And the same stone as y ours. . .
We. . .
. . . ha ve. . .
Father!
Yes, Akari , Yuki , Nozomi , y ou are si bl i ngs.

And l w ork ed hard unti l now j ust for that.
But now,
our bond is. . .
S ooner or later, this day may ha ve come anyw ay.
And e ven if, Nozomi , y ou w ere to part from us,
that's somethi ng for y ou to decide, Nozomi .
l can't forg ive w hat y ou d id , Father!
But l can't forg ive y ou either, Mother!
Because y ou thoug ht that l 'd lea ve once l knew the secret.

but that feel i ng is the same for me, y ou know.
Even thoug h w e're not related by blood ,

There's no w ay l 'd lea ve y ou
j ust because l found out about somethi ng l i k e this.
O ur bond w on't be brok en by somethi ng l i k e this.
When l lo ve the both of y ou so much. . .
Nozomi . . .
Nozomi , l 'm sorry.
l 'm sorry.
Now look, it seems e ven the rai n has ceased .
We w ere j ust able to a vert the w orst case scenario.
Al l w e ha ve to do is w ait for the day of the aw ard .
Yes, l 'l l contact them. l bet they're w orried about this, so. . .
That's rig ht. l 'l l lea ve it to y ou.

but somethi ng l i k e that could n't. . .
But w hat a strange feel i ng !
That l 'm si bl i ngs w ith y ou, Akari , and Yuki !
Real ly, l w ould n't ha ve thoug ht this w ould hap pen

Let's pledge that, if w e can safely ap pear at the Music Pol ice Aw ard ,

To these bl ue stones that w e three hold !
That's rig ht !

Every day, e veryw here, fore ver
Born somew here i n the nig ht sky (y es ) the l ig ht of stars
That mig ht be y ou
That mig ht be me, rig ht?
Probably lonel i ness and tears
Wi l l mak e me stop i n the streets, those day s exist
But if y ou place y our pal m on mi ne
The soul is an i mportant thi ng , the truth of y our d reams
Yes, y our soul w i l l teach y ou

Every day, e veryw here, fore ver
Don't need w ords any more
With a very w arm smi le
