“Oh,” was the only thing Ayame managed to say after several moments of silence. Yuri's words had warmed her heart while simultaneously shattering it, and she found herself unable to look at her sister for the time being. “Oh, I... I understand. I'm glad. Thank you for telling me, Onee-san.”

He asked you to forgive him, and said you'd always be his daughter no matter what.

“Although, I don't think that he... did anything that needs forgiveness.” She added quietly, hesitantly glancing up at Yuri. “But since he felt like he did, I'll forgive him, of course.”

She paused then, not quite finished but unsure of how to continue. It was hard to put into words, but being unable to remember her own past was more painful right now than she'd ever thought possible. She knew that she had once had a father and she knew that she'd loved him with all her being - which was why she'd asked Yuri about his thoughts in the first place, as it was unsettling not to recall whether or not he'd reciprocated these feelings.

Now that she'd learned that he had, Ayame regretted ever bringing it up; the only other thing she knew about him was the fact that he was dead.

“I wish I could tell him that.” She said finally, her grasp on Yuri's blouse tightening as she lowered her head and stared at her feet. “I wish I could see him...” the black haired girl continued, her voice becoming quieter with every word, “I wish I could see him just once and say 'It's fine, Father, whatever happened wasn't your fault'. He'd probably give me a hug, then...” She trailed off and it was almost as if she could feel his warmth against her, but then she realized that it was only the warmth of the tears that had begun streaming down her cheeks. “I'm sorry, I'm being selfish, but -”

The small gray fairy found himself with one singular concern upon arriving in Kibougahana- he was lost.

That was extremely embarrassing for the former Precure Hunter to admit, especially since it meant confessing that he actually had a terrible sense of direction. But Blue had entrusted him to deliver this to a person named Kaoruko, so deliver it he must...

Setting the wrapped item down in one hand, Phanphan decided to consult the map that Blue had sketched up for him- only to find himself glaring at it in confusion.

"...I didn't think that Blue would have had the art skills of an elementary school student."

The young girl had been wandering around town for a long time now, all on her own. The people around seemed to avoid her, for some reason that she couldn’t quite understand, and she didn’t want to approach them first. Asking for directions probably wasn’t too hard, but since she had no real idea of where she was going…

Rather, it was almost like her feet moved on their own as the girl went ahead, led by nothing but a feeling - she was looking for something, or someone. What it was, though, she couldn't remember. 

In fact, she had very few memories, but oddly enough it didn't really bother her. There had been a tree, a giant and colorful tree, as well as someone called "Cure Moonlight". These were the two things that the girl was sure of.

Am I looking for this tree? She wondered vaguely, turning a corner and entering an apartment complex, then taking the stairs to one of the higher floors. Judging by the size of the door that she stopped in front of, a giant tree definitely wasn't in there. However, there was no mistake - this was the place.

It only took a second for Olivier to recognize the pale skinned girl that he had spotted on his way back from paying the greenhouse a visit. He was a little down since he had apparently just missed seeing Tsubomi- but seeing the other familiar face perked him right up.
