Hatsumi
I was out driving through the city at night when I happened to spot you. I couldn't help but call out.

Koyomi
...Are we really on such terms that you'd go out of your way to call out to me just because you spotted me on the street?

Hatsumi
After you showed us such a magnificent performance at the World Theatre League-as a fellow actor, it's only natural to want to say something, no?

Hatsumi
All the more so when that person is someone who was once in the same troupe.

Koyomi
I could say the same about having been shown a splendid performance.

Koyomi
Even the developments that seemed absurd at first glance were made to shine brilliantly through the performances of Eden's actors.

Koyomi
A production that brings out each actor's individuality the way yours did is not something easily achieved.

Koyomi
It was Eden at its finest...is what I would say.

Hatsumi
I'm honoured to receive such high praise from you, Koyomi. I'm truly grateful.

Hatsumi
Now then, standing around chatting like this hardly seems fitting. I'm sure there's much to catch up on-how about dinner together, if you're free?

Koyomi
I'm afraid tonight is a bit...

Hatsumi
What, do you already have plans?

Koyomi
Yes...I have dinner plans with my family, so I really must be getting home.

Hatsumi
Family...I see.

Hatsumi
(Which means...Iroha will be there too.)

Hatsumi
Then it can't be helped. I'll graciously back down this time. I'll invite you again another day.

Koyomi
Yes...I'm sorry, but I'd appreciate that.

Hatsumi
Heh, what's this? You're being unusually agreeable.

Koyomi
That's just because...well...

Koyomi
To be honest, even now, I still feel it was a loss...that you left Gingaza, Hatsumi-san.

Hatsumi
...Koyomi.

Koyomi
I'm fully aware it's far too late to say this...but I felt I should at least tell you...

Hatsumi
I see...thank you. It means a lot to hear you say that.

Hatsumi
But right now, I'm set on proving to the theatre world that the pinnacle of performance lies with my companions in Eden.

Hatsumi
Koyomi, you should protect what matters to you, too.

Koyomi
I intend to. I didn't need you to tell me-that's been my plan from the start.

Hatsumi
Ha ha, is that so? Then I'm relieved. Even if the paths we walk are different, there will be times when they cross.

Hatsumi
...Like tonight.

Koyomi
Well, I'm not so sure about that. In the end, tonight we're going our separate ways once again.

Hatsumi
But without tonight, I wouldn't have been able to arrange a future meeting. I don't intend to let opportunities slip by-I'll seize them with my own hands, without fail.

Koyomi
Fufu, is that so...well then, do try your best.

Hatsumi
Of course. Now then...I should be going. Shall I give you a ride home?

Koyomi
No, that won't be necessary. It's just over there. Well then, until next time.

Hatsumi
Take care getting home.

Koyomi
...Fufu.

Iroha
Oh, Onee-san! Welcome home!

Koyomi
! ...Iroha-san. You didn't have to come out to meet me...

Iroha
I just happened to see you through the window! Good work at rehearsal today.

Koyomi
If anyone should be saying that, it goes both ways, Iroha-san. ...How have things been going lately? No problems?

Iroha
Yes! Rehearsals have been even more fun than before! Every day feels so fulfilling!

Koyomi
I see...that's good to hear.

Koyomi
(At the World Theatre League, both Gekidan Denki and Iroha-san received recognition from the judge-our grandmother.)

Koyomi
(Since that day, Grandmother hasn't said a word criticising Iroha-san's acting...)

Koyomi
(I'm truly glad that Iroha can now perform freely...seeing such a vibrant smile on her face, I'm truly...)

Iroha
Come on, let's go inside! Onee-san!

Koyomi
Yes, let's.
