Maki knows they can't hide forever, but she can't quite figure out how to tell that to Midori. Meanwhile, Midori doesn't know where she is in her life any more than she knows where she is on the map, but Tazune is trying to answer that second question—and if he does, it may force Midori to answer the first... The thought of running away was once a wistful dream for Maki and Midori, but when the two women wake up to find it a reality, they'll have to decide if it was just what they needed to find their way home. FINAL VOLUME!
