「秘密だよあのね先生、この変なのはママの中に入ってるんだよ。それでこれがママの皮なの。うちのママはママじゃないんだよ。分かんない。人じゃないのかも知れない。ひとみが見てないところで元に戻るんだよ。ひとみが幼稚園にいるときはそれに戻っていて、それで迎えにくる時はママでうちにいる時は全部ママなんだよ。でもお風呂とかトイレとか、ちょっとでも見えてない時は息がしずらいからこの姿になってるんだよ。ママ寝るとき一緒にいてくれるけどあれは私が寝るの待ってるんだよ。ひとみが寝ちゃえば皮を脱いで元にもどれるもん。ひとみ知ってるよ。うちのママはママじゃないんだよ。」

"It's a secret, miss, the strange thing that is inside mom. So, it's mom's skin. My mom is not mom. I don't understand. Maybe she's not a human being. When Hitomi isn't watching she goes back to how she was before. When Hitomi is in kindergarten she goes back to that, and when she comes to pick Hitomi up, when she is at home as mom, she is totally mom. But when she's in the bath or in the toilet, when she hasn't seen Hitomi even for a little while, she can breathe a little and she becomes this figure. When she sleeps in bed with me, even though we are together that is her waiting for me to go to sleep. When Hitomi falls asleep she can take off this skin and go back to her core. Hitomi knows this. My mom is not mom."
