MukuAh, Director-san, Arisu-san.
IzumiWelcome back, the two of you.
Where did you come from?
SakuyaThey released a comic version of the movie we watched the other day, so we went to the bookshop to buy them.
KazunariHe~, I see.
MukuThat painting, what happened to it?
IzumiActually…
*Short Time Skip*
MukuI see.
KazunariIt’ll be great if we can repair it somehow, but…
HomareBut, even though it’s grandmother’s important painting, she doesn’t seem to be enthusiastic about the repair.
She also didn’t tell me much information about the original painting…
KazunariWe’re stuck huh. What to do…
HomareWhy is it that grandmother is so reluctant to repair it.
SakuyaFrom the beginning, why is it that this picture is so important to Homare-san’s grandmother?
Is it just a painting that she likes?
HomareWhy… I wonder why.
When I think about it, I never heard of the reason before.
SakuyaI thought, a treasure is not something that you can easily find.
For me too, I received a lot of important things since I entered the troupe, but when it comes to treasure, it’s not easy to choose.
That’s why, I don’t think she only likes it, there must be a reason behind it.
HomareA reason huh… Hmm.
MukuMaybe it’s related to your grandfather.
Your grandmother and grandfather got married because they deeply love each other right.
HomareYeah, there’s a possibililty.
But I don’t have many memories about my grandfather.
What I can remember—
Grandfather and painting, is it…
*Recall Memories at Grandmother’s Study*
…Grandfather?
Homare’s GrandfatherOh, it’s you, Homare, what is it.
HomareGrandmother said the tea is ready.
Homare’s GrandfatherThank you. I’ll be there soon.
HomareThat pocket watch, is it broken again?
Homare’s GrandfatherYeah. But it’s already repaired.
Recently, the number of parts has decreased, it’s getting harder and harder to maintain it.
My sight is getting worse too, this watch and me too, we’ve become old.
It’s been 30 years huh…
Homare…?
Homare’s GrandfatherThat painting was drawn around the same time that I bought this watch.
That painting, it’s an important memory of my time with grandmother.
*Back to Present*
HomareRight.
He said that it’s an important memory of his time with grandmother.
He didn’t tell me what was really drawn there…
Maybe, we can find another message by grandfather on this painting.
KazunariAh! There’s something written on the back!
Homare“To the meddlesome you, with love. Miyako.”
IzumiEh?
KazunariMiyako is, your grandmother’s name?
HomareYeah.
KazunariSo, it’s something that Aririn’s grandmother give to your grandfather.
HomareI’ve always thought it was a gift from grandfather…
IzumiWhen you talk about treasure, I guess it’s something that you received from someone else.
MukuIs it possible that the treasure isn’t that painting.
HomareWhat do you mean by that?
MukuGrandfather said that it’s an important memory right.
That’s why, I’m sure that the painting is full of precious memories for the two of them, the treasure then refers to those memories doesn’t it.
IzumiI see. It’s not the painting, but the precious memories, I wonder if grandmother meant it that way.
HomareNot the item but the memories… I see.
Once again, I fail to understand people’s feelings.
KazunariI wonder if I ended up doing something unnecessary.
IzumiBut, I’m sure that grandmother’s happy from your feelings.
Otherwise, she won’t even let you try to repair it.
Tomorrow, why not we try to talk to her again.
Then, we can rethink of what we can do in this case.
HomareYeah, you’re right.
KazunariLet’s do that.
