Ja: 突然、激しい発作に襲われ、彼はひざまずいた。息ができない。 En: Suddenly, he was struck by a severe asthma attack, and he knelt to the ground, unable to breathe. Ja: 「助けて！」心の中で叫んだ。 En: 'Help!' he screamed internally. Ja: しかし、声を出せなかった。 En: But he couldn't produce any sound. Ja: そんな時、遠くから声が聞こえた。 En: At that time, he heard voices from afar. Ja: 「大丈夫ですか？」それはアキラとユミだった。 En: 'Are you okay?' It…
