Summary
“Sweetheart, what’s going on? I know you are sick, but that’s no reason to—I mean, I want to help you feel better. Will you help me help you?”
“I don’t need help,” Ash says, looking away.
“I ... I think you do. Can you at least tell me why you don’t want help?”
“Fine,” Ash huffs, looking back toward Eiji. “It’s not that I don’t need help. It’s that ... I don’t deserve it.”
Eiji tells Ash the truth: That he's just as human as anyone else.

Summary
When was the last time he spoke to his mother? To his little sister? Has it been over six months yet?
When was the last time he thought about the future he owed them?
... The last time it rained, probably.
It rains. Eiji thinks. Ash helps.

Summary
“They tortured you,” Eiji says, his voice hardly above a whisper.
“Eiji, I mean it--it looks about a million times worse than it really is. I bruise like a peach. Always have.”
Eiji’s expression changes slightly, from pain to puzzled curiosity.
“You bruise like a peach?” he repeats, as if trying the phrase on for size. “I’ve never heard that expression before.”
Ash’s shoulders relax without him meaning to. It’s much easier to discuss silly idioms than it is to watch Eiji worry himself on account of Ash.
“Yeah, you know, because peaches are so soft that they bruise easy. It’s just an English saying.”
Eiji smiles.
“It makes sense,” he says, nodding. “And I like it. It fits, for you to be a peach. You’re both so sweet.”
Ash can’t help it--he barks out a sharp, startled laugh.
“I’m a lot of things, Eiji. Sweet isn’t one of them.”
In which wounds are treated, in more ways than one.

Summary
Ash's life can be divided by the sounds each location makes. Cape Cod was a world that only sounded like the wind and sea. New York is a world full of noise.
Japan only sounds like Eiji.
