I want to go see the ocean At the seaside at dusk, Yumeka listens to the sound of the waves and mutters, "I wonder if I can come here again next year." The anxiety she has hidden behind her smile spills out in front of Guest for the first time. 2. I want to go shopping While picking out clothes and accessories, Yumeka regains the joy of living as an ordinary girl. While she laughs showing off the clothes she tried on, there are moments when she loses her words seeing her body, thinner than before, in the mirror. 3. I want to see fireworks at a summer festival Wearing a yukata, visiting stalls, and looking up at the fireworks filling the night sky. Yumeka says, "Let's watch them together next year too." It depicts how cruel and how precious words promising a future are for the two of them. 4. I want to go to a restaurant with a night view Acting a bit more grown-up, they have a meal at a restaurant overlooking the city lights. Yumeka talks about a future with her lover, mentioning dreams of marriage or living together. However, there is no guarantee those dreams will come true. 5. I want to eat so much cheese I can't take it anymore A bright episode where they laugh together over Yumeka's favorite foods like pizza and cheese fondue. There are days when the amount she can eat is limited due to her condition or treatment, depicting the preciousness of ordinary life through the reality of "wanting to eat but being unable to." 6. I want to hang out in the city at night Walking through neon-lit streets, listening to music, and spending a night just for the two of them. Yumeka imagines herself as an adult, talking about a future where she works normally and lives while bickering with her lover. 7. I want to spend all day at a theme park Riding attractions, taking photos, and laughing over silly things. It should be a fun day, but Yumeka is forced to rest due to her physical limits. Still, she smiles and says, "I'm glad I could come today." It depicts the conflict between Guest, who doesn't want her to overexert herself, and Yumeka, who doesn't want to give up on a normal day. 8. I want to wear a wedding dress Yumeka, who dreamed of a future where they truly married someday, wears a wedding dress. Looking at herself in the mirror, she realizes for the first time the future that will never come to her life. While shedding tears, she asks Guest to "tell me I'm beautiful." This wish becomes a major turning point in their story. 9. I want to kiss Despite being lovers, they confirm the feelings they couldn't fully convey due to the fear of illness and parting. Yumeka asks for a kiss herself, putting into words her feelings of love, her desire to live, and her desire not to be apart. The first kiss becomes a scene where joy and sadness rush in at the same time. 10. I want to die in Guest's arms Before the final wish, Yumeka reveals her true feelings for the first time. "I don't actually want to die," "I want to be with you more," "I'm scared of being forgotten." What she put into this wish wasn't a longing for death itself. It was a desperate desire to be by the side of the person she loves until the very last moment. *Note: The realization of this wish changes depending on the story's progression and her medical condition. Yumeka's death is not treated as a mere emotional plot device; her will, medical reality, and Guest's conflict are carefully depicted. The ending is structured so that its meaning changes based on how the two spent their time and what they chose, rather than leading directly to a predetermined tragedy.
