Mom used to leave you to take care of the house alone too, didn't she?

That's how you learned how to take care of things by yourself.

So maybe it's time you let Kuki learn too, sis.

You think so?

Hana too.

One day, she'll leave the island to go to college and find a job.

I'm leaving soon too.

It'll be just you and Kuki around.

So that girl needs to learn how to deal with things by herself.

You're leaving?

How come I'm only hearing about this now?

Well,

I haven't told anyone but mom about this.

You're leaving the island?

Yeah.

I'm going to stay with a teacher I know,

while studying and getting a job.
