Valentine is seen to enter through the curtain of ribbons into the room. She is dressed in traditional Japanese clothing. In her hands she holds the pile of envelopes with the white flower on top, all preciously wrapped with the red ribbon.
Kumo touches the envelopes and smells her perfume. He smiles. The white flower is put in the bamboo jar.
They drink tea together (matsuri or tea ceremony).
The red ribbon is carefully wrapped around Valentines face. Kumo follows on with tying a loop of red rope around her chest, over her shoulders and finally into a flowery knot on her back. Valentine shows becoming dizzy.
He lays her on the bed. Kumo lies next to her, his lips have turned black. She senses him die. She cries. The flower has turned black.
Kyoko enters the room.
As she looks at the suicide couple she drops the volleyball to the floor. It bounces, rolls off, and then comes to a rest.
Valentine breathes out her last air.
