My auto-translator wasn't able to pick everything up while she was hysterical, but I think she was calling a name. [She grows silent. It's painful to think about. The woman did kill him, after all...] But I don't think she realizes everything that's happened. That's why I want to tell her about her baby. Maybe a little bit of joy will cushion the blow when she finds out. But maybe it won't... [Reiko stops there because she can feel herself beginning to choke up.]
