Yûsuke Kafuku: The day Oto died she asked before I left if we could talk when I got home. Her tone was gentle but determined. I had no plans that day, but kept on driving. I couldn't go home. I thought that once I went home, we would never be the same again. I found her collapsed when I returned late at night. I called an ambulance but she never regained conciousness. What if I'd gone home a bit earlier? I think so every day.
Misaki Watari: I killed my mother. When the landslide crushed our home, I was inside too. I was able to crawl out from the fallen house. After escaping, I gazed at the half-collapsed house for a while. Then some more debris came falling and completely destroyed it. My mother was found dead under the debris. I knew she was still in the house. I don't know why I didn't call for help, or why I didn't save her. I hated her, but that wasn't the only thing I felt about her. This scar on my cheek is from that accident. I was told surgery could make it less conspicuous, but I don't feel like erasing it.
Yûsuke Kafuku: If I were your father, I'd hold you round the shoulders and say, "It's not your fault. You did nothing wrong". But I can't say that. You killed your mother, and I killed my wife

The day Otto died
00:00:06.806 --> 00:00:10.031
He asked if we could talk when he got home
00:00:12.252 --> 00:00:14.814
His tone was soft but determined
00:00:16.456 --> 00:00:20.025
That day I had no plans but I kept driving
00:00:21.661 --> 00:00:23.123
I didn't want to get home
00:00:23.993 --> 00:00:29.249
I thought that as soon as I came back we would never be the same again
00:00:31.281 --> 00:00:34.454
I found it collapsed when I came back at night
00:00:36.986 --> 00:00:38.488
I called an ambulance
00:00:42.762 --> 00:00:44.924
but never regained consciousness
00:00:47.797 --> 00:00:50.001
What if he had arrived a little earlier
00:00:51.771 --> 00:00:53.673
I think that every day
00:00:59.339 --> 00:01:00.067
Me
00:01:01.451 --> 00:01:03.183
I killed my mother
00:01:05.855 --> 00:01:08.288
When the landslide crushed the house
00:01:09.459 --> 00:01:11.321
I was inside too
00:01:12.999 --> 00:01:16.126
I was able to crawl out of the fallen house
00:01:18.999 --> 00:01:22.001
After escaping I looked at the half collapsed house for a while
00:01:23.673 --> 00:01:28.468
Then more earth fell and completely destroyed it
00:01:31.003 --> 00:01:34.114
They found her dead under the rubble
00:01:36.566 --> 00:01:39.001
He knew she was still in the house
00:01:41.401 --> 00:01:47.307
I don't know why I didn't ask for help or why I didn't save her
00:01:48.001 --> 00:01:52.999
He hated her but it wasn't the only thing he felt for her
00:01:56.976 --> 00:02:00.999
This scar on his cheek is from that accident
00:02:02.999 --> 00:02:05.355
They told me that surgery would make it less conspicuous
00:02:06.001 --> 00:02:09.999
but I have no intention of deleting it
00:02:17.001 --> 00:02:19.999
If I were your father
00:02:22.999 --> 00:02:24.374
I would take you by the shoulders and say
00:02:27.001 --> 00:02:28.001
It's not your fault
00:02:30.999 --> 00:02:32.922
You did not do anything wrong
00:02:39.001 --> 00:02:40.063
But I can't tell
00:02:44.864 --> 00:02:46.786
you killed your mother
00:02:48.999 --> 00:02:50.999
and I killed my wife
