What's with that look?
- What's with that look? - Stop!
Stop!
No! Stop!
- No! - Sakura!
Stop it!
- What do you think you're doing? - Don't!
Go ahead, punch me.
Go on, punch me.
I'm not like you.
Let's get out of here, Sakura.
Hold it.
I already called the police.
No explanation will redeem you from this situation.
Let's go.
Thank you for saving me.
Are you in pain? Those bruises...
I'm doing okay.
You should go home.
You shouldn't have to deal with this.
I can't continue to burden you.
It's in your best interest not to be involved with me anymore.
Sakura...
The accident that you spoke about before...
You were talking about when
a shattered window fell on you seven years ago, weren't you?
What?
You shielded a little girl.
The shards of glass fell on you, and you were seriously hurt.
How do you know about that?
Because I was there too.
The little girl that you saved back then,
that was Ran.
It was Ran?
Yes.
In that moment,
my legs froze in place,
and I couldn't do anything.
But not you.
After that accident,
I stopped working for my father's company.
And since then,
you'd cross my mind from time to time.
I wondered how you were doing.
I thought about
what you might think if you saw me now.
So...
You knew this whole time?
I did.
When I ran into you again,
I couldn't contain my excitement.
I felt awkward about bringing this up.
I didn't want you to think that I had some fleeting longing for you,
or that I was delusional.
But I hadn't considered that
you've had to give up your life's calling because of that accident.
It's my fault.
I should've stepped in to protect Ran.
I'm so sorry.
Hold on.
That's not it.
It's not your fault.
Still, Sakura...
I'm certain that
I love you.
So please,
don't say that you're not worth my time.
You're a strong person.
You're resilient.
And unbelievably beautiful.
I see that in you.
Will you please...
stay with me from now on?
There's no rush...
to give me an answer.
Please think about it.
Oh, my. Look how stunning this kitchen is.
Look, they have color options too.
- Say, Yuriha, which would you choose? - Yes.
I think I would go for a chic finish.
- Something like this. - Huh?
Wouldn't a brighter kitchen be better? It would lift the spirit.
I like this one.
Looks nice. I say let's go with that.
That sounds good.
I'm so excited for this renovation.
Hey.
Could you be a little more considerate with my mom?
We're going to be living together.
She'll be helping us out with chores and looking after the kids.
Can you try to get along?
You're right. I apologize.
What's wrong?
I'm not in the mood.
You can't get it up anymore because your wife left you?
What?
Poor you.
And you? Aren't you here because your husband doesn't pay attention to you?
What a miserable woman.
I bought a few things you might like.
Thank you.
Sakura, you need to eat.
I hope the goldfish are okay.
You should head home as soon as possible.
You need to feed them too.
That's true, but...
I can't leave you here alone.
- I'll head home too. - What? But...
No matter where I am, eventually he'll find me.
It's all the same.
Sakura...
So...
Let's go home.
Let's stay together.
Okay.
I'm so glad.
Everyone looks well.
- Sakura. - Yeah?
When thing settle down,
let's think about our next steps together.
About our future.
Okay.
- Good morning. - Morning.
- Sakura. - Yes?
Please leave the shop closed today. I have some errands to run.
Where are you going?
I'm going to meet with your husband.
Hold on.
Please don't. Who knows what he'll do...
It's all right. I'll go reason with him.
But...
It's going to be okay.
Masako.
Good morning.
I have an errand nearby, so I thought I'd drop in.
Those bruises...
What happened?
I see.
You've been through a lot.
Yes.
Haruto, even if you go to see him,
there's no guarantee that Takuya Hiraga will speak with you.
It might make things more complicated.
But we can't leave things as they are. Something has to be done.
Sakura, are you certain you want to move forward with a divorce?
Yes.
I want a divorce.
In that case, taking legal action would be in your best interest.
Taking legal action?
DV is a legitimate legal basis for choosing to divorce.
But it can depend on the degree
and the frequency of incidents of violence.
The opposing team will have a plethora of rebuttals if there is no proof.
- Yuriha. - Yes.
Where did this dispenser come from?
I rented it just for the duration of the renovations.
I'm relieved.
I was just thinking that it doesn't match the design of the new kitchen.
You're right.
- May I? - Please.
Did you see that? How off-putting.
I'm sorry about earlier.
You heard it, right? My mother-in-law commented about your bruise.
It's nothing.
Hey, I have a similar mark, right here.
I've hidden it pretty well, haven't I?
I've had it from birth,
but isn't it remarkable? We have them in the same spot.
Well, this...
It's just the spot where I got hit by a plank.
- Hey, can you lend me a hand. - Sure.
We're headed to the bathhouse.
They have enormous bathtubs. Come with us, Daddy.
Yeah, you should come too, Momoki.
It's fine. There's no point in him coming. They won't let him bathe.
- Really, Akina? - But it's true.
Because of his tattoo, we can't even enjoy a visit to the pool as a family.
And he can't work a corporate job.
We don't even qualify for life insurance.
- I hate it so much. - Bye-bye.
Would you hurry up and have it removed?
So, hey,
when we all start living together,
would you mind keeping your makeup on around my mom?
I mean, I don't mind.
But I think it would shock my mom to see it.
Let's not make things awkward because of that, okay?
I would hate for you to get your feelings hurt.
Okay.
In that case,
could you add a bathroom to the second story too?
What?
Otherwise, it would be impossible to hide.
Please? It doesn't have to be huge.
Okay, that makes sense.
I got it. We'll add that.
Thank you.
For the entrance, we're only planning to redo the flooring.
- But what do you think? - I see.
In that case, white would be the best color in terms of Feng Shui.
It helps to improve the flow of income.
Then white it is.
Do you plan on leaving that window as is?
Yes, currently we don't have plans to change it.
I see.
Is there a problem with it?
No, not at all.
Thank you so much for your help today.
My mother-in-law was listening diligently,
and wants to follow every piece of your advice.
When you're in this house,
your energy seems completely different than when you're outside.
What? Do you think so?
However, neither expression is truly authentic to you.
I sense that you might be suffering.
The stress of behaving unlike yourself all the time
must be getting to you.
- Did you forget something? - No.
The other day,
you spoke about your scar.
I was wondering if I could ask you something.
Wow, incredible.
It's beautiful.
- You think so? - I do.
The owl symbolizes the god of carpentry.
My dad and my grandfather were both carpenters.
I got this tattoo when I made the decision to join this industry.
I see. It's a representation of your commitment.
- That's correct. - So why hide it?
My wife doesn't like it.
When we were dating, she told me it was cool.
But now, she looks at me as if she's seeing some foul creature.
- I see. - I thought about having it removed.
But it would cost a fortune for a piece this large.
So when I saw that you could cover your scar so cleanly,
I thought maybe this would work for me, too.
- Sorry for the sudden visit. - It's okay.
It makes me happy that my makeup skills can be of service.
Isn't it a huge chore to do this every day?
Not at all, I'm used to it by now.
I've been doing this since I was in high school.
I was so happy.
The first time I saw my face without the mark,
I thought, "Now I'm finally the same as everyone else."
From that point on, I couldn't imagine living life without makeup.
My husband tells me I worry too much about it.
Your husband is a kind person.
- Not really. - What?
He says that.
But he actually pities me.
He looks down on me.
I've had this mark for the longest time.
I can see it in his eyes.
My husband thinks
that he's a hero for having married such a pitiful woman.
That's why he makes all the decisions
and looks at me like it's my place to follow his lead.
It's the same with this renovation.
My opinions do not reflect his at all.
That's sounds rough.
But we've decided to build a bathroom on the second floor.
- Have you heard? - Not yet.
It's happening at my request.
Because we're going to live with my mother-in-law.
That bathroom will be the one place where I can be my honest self.
From the vanity to the wallpaper,
I'll get to pick whatever I like.
I can't wait.
Well, I'll make sure to give my full attention when building it.
I appreciate that.
Hey, do you want me to hide the scar on your face?
It's on the house.
Well...
This is fine.
It won't take long. It doesn't bother you?
Well...
I think it's kind of cool, like we're on the same team.
- Hello? - Mama, where are you?
Let me talk to her too.
I got it, I'll head home in a hurry.
Yeah. Yeah, okay. See you later.
All right, look, a dinosaur.
- Yeah, nice. - Hey, what is this?
- Hey, Ko-chan, look at this. - What?
It says, "Second story bathroom extension." What is this?
This? Yuriha requested it, so I had them price it out.
Yuriha...
You don't want to use the same bathroom as me?
No, that's not it at all.
Of course not. You're just being polite, aren't you?
I get it. That makeup seems like it takes a while to come off.
Don't worry, you can take as much time as you want.
We shouldn't waste extra money on this.
Let's scrap the second story bathroom idea.
I agree.
I'm going to step out to shop for groceries.
Hey, show me.
What?
Your true face.
I can't.
You can show me.
Oh, dear.
"A window by the front door
can invite bad luck and a likelihood of an affair."
So it says.
Why didn't the feng shui practitioner say so? I wonder...
You're beautiful.
- So about the bathroom... - Right.
- It's fine. - Are you sure?
- You're fine with it? - Yup.
I'll make it work.
Wow, goldfish.
So pretty. So cute.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
It's nice to be surrounded by life.
- Everyone loves it. - I agree.
I'm glad.
Please excuse me.
Hello?
I heard the news about Sakura.
Masako told me.
So what's your plan?
It has nothing to do with you, Father.
Come back.
I'll give you another chance.
Come work for the company.
There won't be any more chances.
Think carefully.
- Understood? - Hey...
Talk to you next time. Goodbye.
Another cancellation.
Have we ever been this empty at this time of the day?
Maybe we should start thinking plan B?
What? Yeah. We should look for a different salon.
Yeah.
Why are you reneging your sponsorship all of a sudden?
I agreed because Sakura was going to manage the business.
But that's not the case. I've called about it many times already.
No, wait. I can't have this.
This is not what we talked about.
That's my line.
Could you please rethink...
Excuse me.
What do you want?
There's someone here to see you.
A visitor? Who?
That's...
Nice to meet you. I am the legal advisor for Kazama Holdings.
Please call me Bando.
A lawyer?
I came here today to talk about your wife, Sakura,
and Haruto, the CEO's eldest son.
This is perfect.
He's caused me a lot of trouble.
Haruto refuses to give back my wife.
There's something I'd like you to see, Mr. Hiraga.
Stop!
No!
Stop it!
No!
Stop it, please!
Can you confirm that
this is you and your wife?
