I wasn't expecting you. Yuuko: It's all right. No need to worry. Watanuki: Is it okay to just barge in like this? Exactly where are we? Why are you here? Yuuko: Didn't I say that we were here to grant a wish? (Since we were invited, we should at least do it properly.) Watanuki: I am doing it properly. Yuuko: Ah, but, you really shouldn't go to far though. You should go for regular ear, nose, and throat checkups... sfx: klank -------------------------- Page 03 Woman: Ehm... Are you "Kindoo-chan"? Watanuki: Huh!? Yuuko: Yes. And you must be "HanaHana-san"? Yuuko: "Kindoo-chan" and "HanaHana-san" are nicks. Names on the Internet. Watanuki: Ah. So you met online? Watanuki: So, on which site did you meet? Yuuko: (Heh) "The Magical Girls and Superpowers" site. (Kindoo's my favourite character from "Tuukokorokona Yamitdasa") Watanuki: Eh!? -------------------------- Page 04 Yuuko: About what you wrote in your e-mail... Woman: Yes... I've been already thinking of not going online anymore. Woman: Whatever I was doing...Housework or watching TV...I kept thinking about it. Even when I made up my mind not to, I still ended up in front of the computer. -------------------------- Page 05 Woman: My son has been very lonely, and even my husband is complaining... Yuuko: Really? Woman: Really. Yuuko: But till today, you still can't stop? Woman: Mm. Yuuko: Why? Woman: I'm sure it's because I'm not determined enough. -------------------------- Page 06 Yuuko: You've realized...I see. Woman: But this time I really do want to stop. Yuuko: What would you do to stop? Woman: I was thinking of keeping a certain distance until the desire's gone. Anyway, I have to stop now... Yuuko: Hey... Woman: Mm? -------------------------- Page 07 Yuuko: If you want to change, you must first make it clear to yourself why you wish to change, and how you inted to do so. Woman: Uhm... So you're saying... Yuuko: What made you decide to not go online anymore? Woman: Because my husband said... Yuuko: You must stop because your husband told you to? You'd do anything that your husband tells you to do? -------------------------- Page 08 Woman: No, it's not like that... My husband doesn't like to nag. This is the first time he actually asked me not to do something. Woman: I've been obsessing about going online so much that I've been neglecting the housework. I haven't been taking my son out to play either. It's awful. Yuuko: Why must you take your son out to play? Woman: "Why must I take my son out to play"? Yuuko: Why do you want him not to be bored? Woman: Because he's my son.. Yuuko: Because. Woman: Because... it feels... very cute. -------------------------- Page 09 Yuuko: Which means you still can't stop even though you think this way. Yuuko: I understand this point. So, why is it you believe you cannot stop? Woman: It's because... if only... Yuuko: That's not right, is it? -------------------------- Page 10 Yuuko: Anyway!

Yuuko: As long as you can stop, you do not mind the sacrifice,, no matter how great? Woman: Sacrifice? -------------------------- Page 11 Yuuko: Because you wish to stop, no matter what. Woman: I want... to stop. Yuuko: Then don't touch that computer anymore. Woman: O-...Okay. Yuuko: So, we're off then... Watanuki: Eh? Eh? Woman: Th-...That's it? Isn't there anything else? sfx: pull -------------------------- Page 12 Yuuko: What do you mean? Woman: A suggestion or something? Yuuko: But... Haven't you already decided to stop?
