"As one encounter led to a double romance three beating hearts played gentle melodies." "I, Kasuga Kyosuke, 15 years old am living the best years of my youth!" "That's the accelerator screamin', as the tires are squealing' takin' you along, a girl I hardly knew, in my speeding' coupe." "You slammed the door, evadin' the shadows that followed sayin' "Take me anywhere, Just go!"" "An encounter is like a highway junction..." "I've fallen in love with you - that I realized by the time the seaport was in sight..." ""Take me to Summer Side"" "Sayin' that you desire tenderness over a caress..." ""Night of Summer Side"" "...the way you avoided me, using' that naive look, wasn't so innocent." ""Take me to Summer Side"" "Sayin' that you desire a caress over loneliness..." ""Night of Summer Side"" "...the way you looked into my eyes as you turned back wasn't so innocent." "Hikaru?" "!" "A Sensational "C" Experience." "Today..." "I was supposed to go out with Hikaru on a date but I never thought that I'd run into Ayukawa and, well... things happened..." "It seems that I was entranced by the thought of being alone with Ayukawa but that's no excuse for forgetting about my date with Hikaru." "By the time all was said and done..." "Bulletin Board: "Kyosuke, you jerk!"" "...I ended up catching a cold and then I got a fever;" "I couldn't sleep a wink." "Jingoro... water..." "water..." "Fine!" "I'll just use my Power!" "Doesn't work!" "I can't use my Power!" "Boy, I must be REALLY sick!" "I wonder who that is?" "Dad should be working tonight." "H..." "Hikaru!" "Sempai!" ""Sempai": "Senior," referring to someone above you (in this case, in school)." "I don't know what came over me." "I was just walking, and before I knew it, I found myself here." "I'm sorry... the reason why..." "I stood you up was... because my dad, er..." "You were helping out your father?" "Right!" "That's it!" "Oh, so that's what happened!" "I'm really sorry about that." "Not at all." "I'm sorry I wrote such an awful thing on the bulletin board!" "I can't believe that I lied..." "Why, you...!" "Excusez moi!" "What the...?" "!" "Hi, Hikaru!" "Howdy!" "Congratulations, Oniichan!" "We were worried about you, Oniichan, because you're a late-bloomer but you've finally grown up enough to be able to bring girls home!" "Manami!" "Well, then, relax and make yourselves comfortable!" "They can be so obnoxious sometimes!" "But... now that she mentions it this is the first time I've had a girl in my room and late at night, to boot!" "Say, Sempai?" "Would you go out on a date with me today, after school?" "S..." "Sure..." "There are things I'd like to talk about, like our future..." "You're right, like our future and..." "What?" "!" "Our future?" "!" "Oh, please!" "You weren't listening to me at all!" "What were you thinking?" "!" "Your coffee is gonna get cold." "How many sugars do you take?" "Oh..." "I'll do it!" "C..." "Cookies or something sure would've been nice!" "That Manami... she's so inconsiderate!" "I love coffee all by itself." "Gee, me too!" "Being alone with her like this I can't help noticing that Hikaru is a girl after all." "But... in the end, nothing happened." "We listened to music and stayed up 'til dawn." "That's all there was to it, but who knew that it'd cause chaos at school?" "Hey, listen to this..." "Kasumi said she dreamed of sleeping in bed with her boyfriend last night!" "Ugh!" "Naughty!" "Risque!" "Risque!" "Oh?" "My brother was with a girl all last night, in bed!" "What?" "!" "Oh, c'mon, Kurumi, you're lying!" "It's true!" "It was Hikaru, in the next homeroom." "She's rad!" "Oh!" "I can picture her doing it!" "Really!" "I was wondering why she's been so sweet lately..." "That explains it, she's been doing it with a guy!" "Ugh, how dirty... but, I'm jealous..." "Yeah, me too..." "I wish it had happened to me!" "No..." "No way!" "Kasuga, that dirty dog!" "Hey, did you hear?" "Some freshman named Hikaru slept with Kasuga!" "Oh!" "Speaking of which, I saw Hikaru coming from the direction of Kasuga's apartment this morning!" "No way!" "Why, you!" "You're cold, Kasuga!" "We're supposed to be buddies!" "You could've let me know about this earlier!" ""Know about this?" What do you mean?" "Why, you!" "Don't pretend you don't know!" "That freshman Hikaru..." "You "C'd" her!" ""A" = Kissing. "B" = Petting." ""C" = Sex. "D" = Pregnancy!" "You don't look like much..." "but, man, you're a STUD!" "And?" "And?" "What did you do to get Hikaru to go to bed with you?" "!" "You idiot!" "What the hell are you talking about?" "!" "Oh, c'mon!" "No need to deny it now!" "You and Hikaru in bed... one night together as man and woman...." "Everyone in school is talking about it!" "Oh, come on..." "Why would I ever do a thing like that with Hikaru?" "!" "Pardon me..." "I, for one, believe that Jr." "High students shouldn't be doing such things." "Now for some sausage..." "Oh, shut up!" "So, how was it?" "!" "What does it feel like, now that you're a man?" "Look..." "Oh, my "Honorable Big Brother!"" ""Honorable Big Brother?" "!"" "I sure wanna do those kind of things with Kurumi and Manami!" "Will you knock it off?" "!" "I didn't get to "C" with Hikaru, I'm telling you!" "Oh..." "Shit..." "Really?" "He was helping his dad with his job?" "Yes, that's what he said." "The reason why he stood me up wasn't because he didn't like me." "Hikaru..." "Y..." "Yes?" "Guys, you see... tend to lie when they find it convenient to do so." "Do you believe what he told you?" "Yep!" "I don't think he's the kind of person who can lie." "I mean... when he tried to give me some sugar cubes and ended up touching my hand..." "He's so pure at heart!" "That's why..." "I believe in my man." "I understand." "Then, hang in there, Hikaru." "I wish you the best." "Sure!" "I'm so psyched up now now that I've got a chance to talk to you, Madoka!" "I'll do my best!" "See ya!" ""my man...?"" "Helping his dad?" "What a lie..." "Haven't you heard...?" "There's this awful rumor going around about us!" "Geez!" "It's so annoying, don't you think?" "I'm not annoyed at all, really." "'Cause... our relationship is now something that the whole school approves of!" "B..." "But doesn't it make you mad when they say totally untrue things about us?" "!" "So you don't like me after all, Sempai...?" "You don't like me after all..." "H..." "Hold on!" "How could I not like someone as cute as you?" "Really?" "!" "Yippee!" "H..." "Hikaru!" "That's not a good idea..." "Darling!" "I knew it!" "Darling, you're wonderful!" "I give up..." "Sempai..." "Ayukawa!" "It's all a big misunderstanding..." "I... didn't get to "C" with Hikaru!" "Wait!" "Excuse me." "You thought of me THAT much?" "I'm so happy!" "Wait..." "Hikaru..." "Oh, say, er... could we get through?" "I don't want you going inside." "Say what?" "Oh!" "Ayukawa!" "Oh, I was just, er..." "Well, seeing the nurse over a tiny scratch like this is going overboard!" "Wh..." "What?" "!" "Hey, try walking!" "What?" "!" "See?" "You can walk!" "Let's go!" "W..." "Wait!" "Oh, shit..." "S..." "Sorry!" "Darling!" "I'm not lying!" "It's the truth!" "No way!" "But... they were on top of the bed together..." "Please!" "It's all because Kurumi didn't explain it properly!" "My brother and Hikaru were just using the bed as a chair, that's all." "Just as a chair?" "Yup." "That's right." "That's so lame!" "Oh, come on!" "Well, you know..." "I had faith in your brother from the beginning!" "There's no way that he could do something so depraved!" "Hatta, you smart-ass!" "Wh..." "Wh..." "Ow!" "That hurt!" "Why, you..." "You think you're tough?" "!" "Oniichan?" "How are you feeling?" "You'll feel great if you drink this." "What on earth is it?" "Egg-sake." "I don't want stuff like that!" "You've got to drink it!" "No way!" "Oh, c'mon!" "Kurumi..." "After all, we've got to help you get well quick!" "Oh, mama!" "Sake..." "Looks like I'm gonna get plastered..." ""Excuse me..."" "A... yu... ka... wa..." "I'm gonna take a bath first!" "Sure!" "Keep it quiet..." "Right?" "9... 10..." "Come on..." "answer... 19... 20!" "Hello?" "Hello?" "!" "Ayukawa?" "!" "It's me!" "Kasuga Kyosuke!" "What do you want?" "!" "Er... er..." "I want you to just listen to what I've got to say!" "About the rumor that's going around the school it's all just a huge misunderstanding!" "I'm busy right now..." "It's true that she came over to my house but we were only chatting and drinking coffee!" "As for what happened at the nurse's room, I was really out of it, and when I ended up holding her, you came in..." "Why are you even bothering to tell me this?" "!" "I hate listening to men and their excuses!" ""Excuses..."" "At that moment I was feeling so dizzy because of the fever and egg-sake that I can't remember exactly what I said." "But, Ayukawa was right." "Calling her to deliver a lame excuse, just to clear up some misunderstanding was not really the kind of thing that a man should've done, or so I felt." "What a loser I am!" "What a loser..." "I might start disliking a man..." "who'd resort to excuses." "Say..." "Kasuga-Sempai, what are your feelings towards Madoka?" "Wh..." "Why do you ask, all of a sudden?" "!" "'Cause, it seems as though you don't like her." "Th..." "That's not true!" "I'm glad!" "'Cause I think that Madoka is such a wonderful person!" "Whew, that scared me for a second." "Who knows what this girl will say, right out of the blue!" "Ushiko!" "Umao!" "Ushiko!" "Ushiko!" "Wherefore art thou, Ushiko?" "Umao!" "And, wherefore art thou, Umao?" "!" "You seem to regard Ayukawa very highly." "It's almost as if she's my big sister." "Look at this." "Hmm...?" "This pendant is packed with my memories of Madoka." "Yo, whatcha think, she ain't bad, eh?" "Wanna try picking her up?" "Everyone says Madoka is short-tempered and gets upset easily but she's really nothing like that." "Like, one time..." "It was when I was really little..." ""Gimme back!"" ""Beat it!"" ""Give back Hikaru's pendant!"" ""How many times do I have to tell you?"" ""My son didn't take it away from her!"" "Say, forget this dumb flick!" "Wanna hang out and do something much more fun?" "I can take you to a really awesome place!" "In the end, Madoka's persistence won out, and the boy gave up." "The next day, he returned the pendant!" "She must be really strong at heart." "Yo, girlfriend, stop lookin' mean like that!" "Hang out with us!" "Get lost!" "Huh?" "!" "Waddya say?" "!" "I can't see the movie very well when your butt-ugly faces are in my way!" "Wh..." "Why you...!" "Bitch!" "Hold it, you!" "Sempai, would you go out on a date with me again?" "Wh..." "Sure." "YES!" "See you later!" "Bye-bye!" "Hey, you!" "Stop right there!" "We ain't through with you yet!" "Stop right there!" "Ayu... kawa..." "Why you!" "You've got some nerve, girl!" "Kasuga!" "Asshole!" "Asshole!" "We ain't through with you yet!" "You dumb bitch!" "That was a big earthquake!" "Seems like you don't have a fever." "Ayukawa..." "Just then, I wanted to... tell her that I had heard Hikaru's story but I decided not to." "I don't know why exactly but, somehow... it seemed better this way, not saying anything not saying anything at all." "I dream of casting a spell that captures your heart and makes you crazy about me." "Love is deja vu; an unfamiliar memory." "I feel our lips pressing together." "Love me... tenderly..." "Golden Summer Mirage..." "Someday..." "Someday..." "Please let my body feel your lips on that morning I'll be called your lover." "Someday, someday..." "I'll be waiting for that moment." "Say, Hikaru?" "What's this "adult circumstance not to be seen" that you're talking about?" "What?" "!" "A..." "Ayukawa was seen... with a middle-aged man going into a h..." "h... hotel?" "!" "Next time: "A Secret for Two" " A Problematic Part-Time Job"" "I... can't believe it!"
