Komari:

🎵 Up higher than the rooftops, the carp are flying high—

The biggest black carp is the father,

The smaller red carp are the children… 🎵

Himari:

Ah—Komari-chan is singing!!

…Come to think of it, the carp streamer song doesn’t mention a mother, does it?

Komari:

sigh… You caught me again, Himari.

…Well, you see, the mother—

she’s watching from below, quietly supporting everyone’s efforts.

That’s why today is a day to be thankful to mothers.

Himari:

I see…

The dark figure I used to see is gone now.

Maybe… that wasn’t my mother after all…

Komari:

You’re a child your mother protected with her life—there’s no resentment there.

I’m sure she’s still supporting you, even now.

That’s why you’re able to keep swimming forward.

Himari:

…Thank you, Komari-chan.
