[she cants her head at him—and a small smile tugging at her face. ah.]

...It's okay. You don't have to.

Thank you for trying. It's very kind of you to, and I appreciate it.

[exercisms]

If it helps. . . I'll remember what she's like. And if I see you do anything it seems like she would be angry with you for, I'll tell you.

[showyourself]

[she looks briefly thoughtful at that, but says nothing more, except,]

Thank you, Shigeo.

How are you taking it? These memories.

[exercisms]

The bubbles?

[He looks down a little.]

It's been. . . hard. I've had to remember something a few times now that I don't like thinking about.

[...]

I'm sorry to hear that. That sounds terrible. I hope you don't have to see it again.

[exercisms]

I hope so, too.

[He'll reach to take her hand, if it's okay.]

It must be hard, too, seeing them and being reminded you can't remember her.

[showyourself]

[she'll let him take it, and sighs.]

It's... it is what it is, I suppose.

[she's been crying all morning, but that's her reply. sure.]

I can't do anything about it. So I guess I just... get used to it.

[exercisms]

Mm.

[ . . . ]

Have you gotten any memories back yet, Elsa-san? I've gotten one.

[showyourself]

Yes. Just one. But it's... just a song. It doesn't mean anything to me.

[she sighs.]

...What was yours?

[exercisms]

[Nod. Nod.]

I got back my memories of my friend Dimple. So maybe you'll remember your sister again soon.

[showyourself]

I hope so, Shigeo.

I really hope so.
