She was released earlier than Hako, as she only had to serve five years, and went on to work at a bakery in Yanaka, Tokyo.Hako's family had disowned her, and wishes nothing to do with her. She moves into her dead grandmother's little place in Yanaka. With each other's support, both Ayaka and Hako start to rebuild their lives.One day, Hako's brother comes to visit and says to her, "I am getting married, and I wish to have your name removed from the family register"
