going back already? yep
I must look after Ayukawa I see
Sakura chan as a matter of fact...
I'm getting married too really!? congratulations!
well, half of it is
to marry to look after him
since air raids, he has been bedridden
and no chance of recovery
but... you love him, don't you?
yep... to be honest with you...
I am happy this is the happiest time ever for me
haha!
Sakura chan become happy too!
yep thanks

Tatsuhiko san what's the matter?
they are all calling for you from the banquet
ah... yep
a letter from mother
"this is the wedding dress I have it made for you.
When you find someone special, get married in it"
my mother was convinced I was dead
the wedding reception... I wish she could been there
♬～
she must be watching us from somewhere
that's right with father
♬～
well, Tatsuhiko san the day before mother passes away,
mother and I both saw you, Tatsuhiko san
my mother passed away... February 27
the day before was February 26...
we met a fierce attack from enemy
I couldn't get out of a trench for days and I was almost dead
but at that time I thought to myself "I didn't want to die there
I wanted to play the piano with you just once more"
and then... I heard the sound of piano
the sound of piano? yep
that melody of Liszt we played together
the day before I joined the army
I was saved by you on that day
♬～
my name is Wakayama my younger brother was together in the front
here is my humble congratulatory gift
thank you very much excuse me
Fumi san don't worry about the back
Miss Wakayama... Tatsuhiko san Miss Wakayama is here
I meant to come here to apologize
I said too much about my younger brother...
