Chapter 2

"—Once upon a time, there was a solitary doll."

"That doll, living in a perfect, flawless, and eternal world, unexpectedly touched the heart of a young man."

"And then, because of the doll's feelings of loneliness, they were charmed by the kindness of the young man."

"A human cannot become a doll, and a doll cannot become a human."

"However, anyone may dream of it—of trying to become one."

"So that young man, who was once a 'human turned doll', decided to take responsibility for the doll's dream."

"Because the doll kept reminding him of his old self from long ago."

"And now, in the present: the young man recalls his own dreams and devotes himself to becoming a shining light."

"By knowing the heart, knowing pain, and knowing love, they become one person."

"'Le temps des fleurs'—while singing a song of love."
