Summary[]
Aqua has come to Ichigo with questions about Ruby's recent rise in the industry. Ichigo admits that he has been helping with Ruby lately by calling in a couple of favors from the days of working with Ai but he reassures Aqua that he is only doing it because he feels bad for Miyako. Aqua asks why he is doing it behind her back rather than coming back to the Ichigo-Pro. In response, Ichigo states his desire for revenge for the person responsible for Ai's death and he does not want to get Miyako involved.
Aqua is confused why Ichigo is willing go that far and Ichigo tells him that Ai was like a daughter to her. Aqua shares that he entered the entertainment industry for the same reason and he has found someone who shares the same biological father as him. He then relays his belief that the man responsible, Seijuro Uehara, is dead and therefore their revenge is over. Ichigo scoffs at the idea, telling Aqua that Seijuro could not have been the one who killed Ai as he died before Ai moved into the new apartment.
Aqua then brings up the DNA test results but Ichigo reminds him about the possibility that a woman can have a child with a man other than her own husband. Besides there remains the possibility that someone else from the agency was involved, so it is not over yet. The revelation puts Aqua into a downward spiral, he tries to rationalize it but he cannot come up with an answer. Ichigo apologizes for breaking this to him and tells him to get some rest.
Later, rain falls as Aqua has sat down on a bench to process what he has learned that day. He hallucinates his younger self as well his past life reminding him about the punishment and retribution. Aqua tried to cling on to the happiness he found in the last few months and eventually snaps, yelling "shut up". He has not realized that Kana has approached him with an umbrella. Thinking it is her fault, Kana apologizes and runs away, leaving Aqua alone.
