"I'll never lie to you again" "It's a promise between men." "Wak-kun's hospitalized at the University Hospital." "H-Hospitalized?" "You'd better go see him right way." "Hurry, hurry!" "I can swim 25m now!" "Really?" "Congratulations on your discharge." "Take care not to catch a cold." "Yes!" "Say hi to your doggy for me." "Yes!" "Wak-kun, bye bye!" "Make sure you wear your mask at home too." "Yes!" "Good boy." "Good morning, Wak-kun." "Are you working on your picture diary?" "Look, Wak-kun." "I tried making the maze you asked me to before." "Try it when you feel like it, okay?" "Not today." "Alright..." "Next is Sawamoto Waku-kun." "The intensification therapy is progressing well." "He has minimal side effects, and his condition is stable." "Alright." "Anything from the CLS?" "There's something that concerns me a little." "He doesn't chat as much with the staff like he used to." "Except when his father's here, he doesn't talk much, and he doesn't initiate a conversation with other children like he used to." "He's not finishing his meals as well." "Hm..." "Is he getting tired of hospital food..." "His condition is stable, but with Taiyou-kun passing away and all, the problem is more psychological than physical." "Isn't that right, Nanami-chan?" "Yes." "I think he's holding a lot of his feelings inside, so" "I'd like to create more opportunities for him to vent his feelings." "Okay, I'm counting on you." "Yes." "Next." "Admitted for kidney infection, Tamura..." "Did you finish your homework?" "I'm almost done." "I'll proofread it for you." "Misspellings, omissions." "We have to check carefully for those." "Daddy." "Summer vacation's almost over, huh?" ""Macaroni Penguin"" "He says it's a dream card." "Dream card?" "Wak-kun told me that since he can't go out, he's tucking them under his pillow so that he can at least see them in his dream." ""Jumping Dolphin" "Whale Shark"" "Pretty greedy, isn't he?" ""School" "Pool"" "I'll try my best to give him as much diversion as possible." "Permission to go out?" "Yes." "My son's wish to go swimming at pool during summer break nor his wish return to school for the 2nd semester didn't come true." "Can't we grant him just a few of his wishes?" "What is it?" "It just occurred to me that you're a father after all." "It's true that Waku-kun's condition has been good lately, and he's looks like he's well." "However, that doesn't mean he's cured." "We need to continue to monitor him carefully." "I see..." "Sorry for bothering you." "Wak-kun." "I found an interesting book on insects at the bookstore yesterday." "I'll look at it later." "I'll leave it here then, okay?" "Excuse me." "Yes." "Are you with Pediatrics?" "Yes." "What can I do for you?" "Where is Sawamoto Waku's ward?" "Um.." "Excuse me, but..." "My name is Amamiya." "Amamiya-san." "I'm Waku's mother." "Can you tell me where Waku's ward is?" "Um..." "That's..." "What's going on?" "I'm Maruyama, Waku-kun's primary doctor." "Amamiya-san." "Yes." "I'm sorry, but unless we have the father's permission, we can't let you visit your son." "If you're concerned about my identity," "I have my insurance card and driver's license." "No, that's not the issue." "The parental authority is with the father, isn't it?" "Yes." "In that case, in order to avoid misunderstanding or disagreements, we try to get permission from the parent with parental authority." "So please discuss this matter with the father first." "Can you at least at least tell me Waku's condition?" "What disease does Waku have?" "We're not at liberty to disclose that either." "Please talk it over with the father first." "After you do, we will be happy to answer any questions about your son's illness." "But I'm Waku's mother." "I'm very sorry." "[Unless we have the father's permission, we can't let you visit your son.]" "Kaori." "I heard Waku's in the hospital." "Let's go in first." "What does Waku have?" "What are you going to do about it?" "He has leukemia." "Leukemia?" "Acute lymphocytic leukemia." "What do you mean leukemia..." "Is Waku alright?" "Can they save him?" "Please, answer me." "The treatment is going well." "Don't worry." "I having to get going to see him." "Let me see him." "Please, let me see Waku." "What are you saying now?" "I already told Waku that you weren't coming back." "Since then, he hasn't said a word about you." "I..." "You... abandoned Waku." "Your wife's pretty." "Oh, sorry." "Your ex-wife." "I'm sorry, it seems she troubled you." "Aren't you going to let her see him?" "I told her I'll take care of my son by myself." "At this point in time, Waku too..." "Are you insisting for Waku-kun's sake?" "Or is it for yourself?" "I do understand how you feel." "After all is said and done, men are all petty creatures." "Oh that's right." "The talk we had the other day..." "Don't let him overexert himself." "Can you keep that promise?" "It's getting to the point where he's starting to feel the stress of a long term stay." "I hope you can help him release his pent up feelings." "Thank you." "Really?" "I can go out?" "If your condition's good." "Wak-kun's condition is good." "Konno-san made these for you." "Write down what you what to do when we go out." "1, 2, 3, 4, 5." "5 wishes?" "I think I can handle that many." "Any games you want to play?" "Games?" "Like catch or hopscotch." "Hopscotch?" "You don't know hopscotch?" "When Dad was a kid, we used to write a line like this on the ground, then throw a rock, and hop on one leg..." "You used to do that?" "Yeah...in the old days." "Is there anywhere you want to go?" "Anything you want to eat?" "If there's someone you want to see..." "Someone I want to see?" "...." "Yeah." "Aoi-chan." "Aoi-chan?" "She's the cutest girl in the class." "I couldn't give her a birthday present, so I want to give it to her." "Alright!" "That'll be the first one." "Leave it to me." "Really?" "Yeah." "I'll figure something out." "Backpack, thermos.." "Sneakers too, right?" "It's a field trip, isn't it?" "Field trip?" "Remember?" "Wak-kun couldn't go because Wak-kun was in the hospital." "So the two of us are going on a field trip." ""Wish Card Date with Aoi-chan"" ""Wish Card Go to see macaroni penguin"" "Do you have a macaroni penguin at your aquarium?" "Um..no..." "Not a king penguin, not a gentoo penguin, but a macaroni penguin." ""Wish Card Buy snacks for the field trip"" ""Wish Card A delicious bento"" "Good luck, for Wak-kun's sake!" "Konno" "Oops." "Daddy." "You got everything ready?" "Look." "(*teru teru bozu hanging in the window to wish for sunny weather)" "I thought of everything, right?" "\" "Yeah." "Oh?" "You can't think of one last wish?" "Daddy..." "Will you grant me any wish?" "Tomorrow's a special day." "Good night." "Tomorrow's finally the day, isn't it?" "Would a child... want to see his mother?" "Even if she's the mother who abandoned him." "Make sure you come back on time." "The field trip lasts until you come back." "Thank you." "Have fun, Wak-kun." "Daddy, hurry up, let's go.\" "Okay." "Excuse us, then." "See you later." "See you later." "Bye bye." "Bye bye." "Weren't you saying no more than 300 yen for snacks?" "Uh...." "I'm sorry." "I made a mistake in my calculation." "Aquarium!" "Hey, don't run." "Wow." "Awesome." "Look." "Daddy, isn't this awesome?" "Okay, say cheese." "Daddy, let's take it together." "Okay." "Ready?" "Cheese!" "Look." "Macaroni penguin." "Look, it has blond hair." "Father penguins warm the eggs too, you know." "Is that true?" "Yes, that is the truth." "Daddy penguins do their part in raising their children." "He's so cute." "Now... for the parent and child who assist us..." "look!" "As a special present just for today, we'll be giving away our popular mascot, Pen-tarou, the macaroni penguin." "Daddy, let's do it." "Huh?" "Maruyama Sensei." "It's Wak-kun's father." "What's wrong?" "Did something happen?" "Well, it's about the sea lion..." "Sea lion?" "He's asking if it's okay to go near the sea lion." "Be my guest." "It's alright..." "Sensei." "By the way, is it okay or not to touch it?" "Wak-kun?" "No, the father." "Whatever he wants to do." "Here." "Good luck." "I did it, I did it!" "Daddy, go for it." "Here we go." "Yay~." "Alright!" "Yeah!" "Here." "Thanks." "Alright!" "I've been wanting this." "Penguin?" "Can I eat it?" "Go ahead." "How is it?" "Good." "That's a relief." "Eat your vegetables too." "Mommy, it's good" "Really?" "Yeah, it's good!" "Aren't you eating this?" "I will." "Daddy's going to eat it all." "What about this?" "This one." "This is cute too, isn't it?" "Are you get tired?" "Don't overdo it." "I'm alright." "Sorry to be late." "I'll have coffee, please." "How's Wak-kun doing?" "What did the doctor say?" "I can't see him nor talk to the doctor without the father's permission, they said." "I went to see him, but his response was the same." "That he has no intention of letting me see Waku." "So..." "What are you going to do?" "I don't know." "I wanted to bring Waku with me back then." "But he...he didn't allow me to do that." "So I don't know what I can do now..." "Are you going to look the other way again?" "You said that he abandoned you." "If you're happy continuing to convince yourself that he abandoned you, that's fine." "You look like you've regained a lot of your spirit after you left the house." "But even for a second..." "After you left Wak-kun, were you happy, even for a second?" "What do you really want to do?" "I want to see him." "I want to see Waku." "I want to see Waku, even if it's just for a minute." "I want to hear his voice." "Then don't just sit here talking with an old man like me..." "You have to take a step forward." "Wow, dolphins!" "There's a bottlenose dolphin too!" "Wow, they're so cute!" "Aoi-chan's been wanting to see Waku too." "Really?" "Oh, but..." "Aoi-chan's birthday present..." "Oh well, I'll give it to her next time." "Waku." "Wait." "There's something on your ear." "What~." "Get it, get it, get it." "Okay." "Oh!" "Look what I found." "Go on." "Daddy, there's something on your ear." "Daddy, I love you." "Aoi-chan!" "Wak-kun!" "How's everyone doing?" "Everyone's fine." "That dolphin's called bottlenose dolphin, you know." "Does it look good?" "Yeah." "Thanks." "Next time Aoi will give you a present." "Okay." "A little while ago, we watched the sea lion show and me and Daddy..." "He said "Daddy, I love you."" "The fall exhibit." "The main exhibit will be The Goddess's Love." "Amamiya-san." "Yes..." "Can you tell us about this painting?" "I'm sorry!" "Wak-kun's good at drawing." "Hello." "I want to talk to you one more time." "Are you outside now?" "Yeah." "Daddy!" "Can Aoi-chan and I have some juice?" "Yeah." "Is Waku with you too?" "I got the doctor's permission to take him out." "Where are you?" "Why?" "I want to go see him." "I want you to ask him." "I want you to ask Waku if he wants to see me." "Aoi's Daddy's hair started growing with this too." "That tickles!" "Stop it, stop it!" "Let Waku know." "The Children's Museum." "It's a place Waku and I went often." "That I'll be waiting for him there." "Wak-kun, bye bye." "Bye bye." "That was fun." "Waku, are you alright?" "I'm alright." "Is the field trip over?" "We should get going soon." "That was so much fun." "All my wishes came true." "Waku." "You still have one wish left." "Are you still thinking about it?" "It's okay, you can tell me." "Today's a special day." "Didn't I tell you I'd grant you any wish?" "Your mom called a little while ago." "She said she wants to see you." "She's waiting for you at the Children's Museum." "Shall we go?" "Waku." "Do you want to see Mom?" "Okay." "Alright, got it." "You can go by yourself from here, right?" "Dad will be waiting for you here." "Go on." "Go." "Mommy..." "Wak-kun!" "Wak-kun!" "[I can't live with Daddy anymore.]" "[Dad will be by Waku's side.]" "[If we're together, it shouldn't be scary or lonely.]" "[I'll never lie to you again.]" "[It's a promise between men.]" "[Do you want to see Mom?" "]" "[Dad will be waiting for you here.]" "Wak-kun!" "What happened?" "Did you just turn back?" "Why?" "I don't know." "Is that so." "Daddy." "I have a wish.\" "A wish?" "Teach me how to hopscotch." "Hopscotch?" "I found these there while I was walking." "Daddy rock and Wak-kun rock." "My last wish." "Do we still have time?" "Yeah." "Wak-kun wants to the play the games Daddy used to play too." "Okay." "Shall we do it then?" "Here we go." "Awesome!" "Looks like Wak-kun will sleep well tonight." "Yes." "[Today I went to the aquarium with Daddy.]" "[I saw the macaroni penguin that I've been wanting to see.]" "[I ate the bento that Daddy made for me.]" "[I gave the present to Aoi-chan.]" "Today, Daddy made a lot of my wishes come true, and I had a lot of fun.]" "[Thank you, Daddy.]" "No matter how hard I try, I can't match up to Dad." "The draft for the pamphlet." "He turned his back on me." "When he saw me, he turned his back on me." "You were right, Sensei." "Saying he abandoned me is just an excuse." "I left him there and ran away." "I abandoned Waku." "Waku won't forgive me for that." "Sorry to keep you waiting." "I have the results of the blood test." "The treatment was going well up to now, but the white cell count in the blood is increasing." "We'll have to do a biopsy tomorrow to confirm it." "What does that mean?" "I'm afraid there's a possibility that" "Waku-kun's disease is relapsing."
