Summary
Sumika is on the phone sharing her plans with Ushio to visit her family cemetery, and then go to a festival. She may head out to the countryside for two nights.

Lying awake in her bed, Ushio has received no messages or calls.

At a temple's martial arts training hall Sumika is training students. She is preoccupied with getting off this mountain and calling Ushio.

Some students insist of climbing trees and falling safely into the water below, which still has Sumika on edge.

Reluctant to call her since she is enjoying time with her family, Ushio is still awaiting Sumika to call her like she said she would and imagines an accident that may have happened.

With the absence of phone signal, Sumika wonders if her lack of calls even bothers Ushio one bit.

It does, and eventually they manage to make contact when the phone signal returns.
