Stephen has learned that Ba-Ba will visit; Stephen mails letters to his mother and Pie letting them know that he is fine. Leaving the post office, he sees Keiko coming confidently toward him. She tells him that she feared he might have returned to Hong Kong and asks him to meet her the next day at the Tama shrine. She touches his hand gently before walking away.
