"Say~this is my mentor Amemiya's house, isn't it?" "(Note:" "Name plate on wall says "Takano", the boss's name.)" "This is Sakuragi!" "This is Seno~." "Hello~!" "(in chorus)" "Miss Sa..." "Sakuragi?" "Seno!" "?" "Wh...wh...wh...whawha...!" "Go change at once!" "To Sakuragi, that appearance of your's is capable of destroying her respected mentor's image." "Yes, sir!" "Quickly!" "Yes, sir!" "AhoMiya, there's no need for you to wear a muumuu!" "(Note: muumuu - a brilliantly colored, loose dress worn by Hawaiians.)" "Ah, there isn't?" "Ugh!" "Amemiya's name isn't on the nameplate either." "Maybe, this isn't this place after all?" "Wait!" "Eh?" "The boss, Takano..." "Mr. Otaka!" "?" "With Amemiya, by sheer chance I was reluctantly forced to live together." "Well, after twists and turns presently, under mutual agreement we have entered cohabitation phase with a view of getting married." "Publicly, since we are very much not at the stage for a formal announcement because we are holding back from making it public if you could take that into consideration, we would be pleased." "That's all." "That's all!" "This is somewhat like having a meeting at the office." "In short, is it ok to interpret that you're having that kind of relationship with the boss as you said?" "That kind of relationship?" "Between a man and a woman." "Ah... it's not yet that kind of relationship." "Then, what kind of relationship?" "Exactly as I just explained..." "Then, what kind of relationship?" "Exactly as I just explained..." "I'm asking Amemiya though." "Do you like the boss?" "I mean, do you truly like him?" "Eh?" ""Truly" you say?" "In liking someone, is there a true or false?" "Look, I'm just asking if you truly like him." "She doesn't get it or something." "That's enough, Seno let's go." "Sorry, (for showing up) all of a sudden." "Come on, Seno." "Let's go." "Oh.." "Huh..." "I was surprised." "Ah~ I'm exhausted." "Boss?" "Ahh..." "Are you ok?" "I'm fine but tomorrow, I'll ask those two once more to keep it secret at the office." "There is also your position among other things (to consider), isn't there." "Please leave this matter to me." "Unbelievable...?" "It's unbelievable to have it explained that logically." "I mean, there truly isn't some other reason?" "Huh?" "For one thing, a superior and a subordinate." "Like a marriage of convenience or..." "(Note:" "Due to the age and rank difference between Hotaru and Bucho...) ...or compensated dating." "(Note:...these alternates could occur in Japan." "Compensated dating, enjo-kosai - girls paid money for dating and more." "Started around the 80s with the booming economy.)" "Huh?" "Well, either way, I won't tell others." "Moreover, I still don't understand this well." "But the one who doesn't understand it is me." "You're utterly not lovey-dovey." "Lovey-dovey?" "In regard to what Sakuragi is saying, if you say you're getting married, together..." "Shh!" "Shh!" "...if the two of you are living (together)..." "Shh!" "Shh!" "...if the two of you are living (together) there ought to be more lovey-dovey feelings." "Lovey-dovey..." "You see, girls are like, "We're lovey-dovey~" or they say, "Even married, we'll also always be lovey-dovey", don't they." "Even married, we'll always be lovey-dovey..." "Yeah, that's normal." "Ah, wait, wait!" "What is it?" "Speaking of that lovey-dovey thing, does one say that, I wonder?" "The point is, I'm a bit ignorant of these fashionable things." "No, it's not like lovey-dovey is some kind of trend." "Ah, sorry!" "Can I have a moment?" "An email from my girlfriend~!" "Hehehe~!" "For example, this kind of thing." "Email?" "Is that lovey-dovey?" "Eh." "Ah, want to look?" "Wonder what I should do~." "What?" "What, what...?" "Lovey-dovey?" "Yes, lovey-dovey." "(We're) Lovey-dovey..." "No way." "We certainly don't have that kind of atmosphere." "We've also never been been lovey-dovey in an email." "Nowadays, in addition to email, there are things like "mixi" and "Twitter" as well." "There are that many things to be lovey-dovey on?" "Although they're not restricted to being used for lovey-dovey..." "I am no good." "Huh?" "You, during the time we were living seperately in Tokyo and Hong Kong, also sent me emails and the like, didn't you?" "Yeah." "According to the seasons, you also sent me postcards, even letters." ""The rain that falls on the veranda without you is as though my heart (was also crying)......" Whatever it was those sentimental letters made me happy." "Although sentimental, you were happy." "But I say, it was a bother for me." "Yeah." "I was also utterly occupied with work." "Yeah." "I'm sorry for being one who can't be lovey-dovey." "Don't be." "Seno asked you a question, right?" ""Do you truly like me?"" "Yeah..." "That too, because I... didn't have that lovey-dovey feeling he asked that, didn't he." "And...?" "I wonder what I should do..." "Even married, it seems necessary to be always lovey-dovey, he says." "But, I'm poor at that sort of thing..." "Better still let's sleep." "That's right." "At times of such dull moods the best way is to quickly sleep." "That's not what I meant." "Tonight, let's sleep together." "Boss?" "In my room." "Even at your age, you can't sleep alone?" "Eh?" "The typhoon, right?" "Typhoon?" "It's fine." "It hasn't come, yet." "Eh....t...when's the typhoon coming?" "Wasn't it around next week?" "This is no good." "Wonder if it'll be ok?" "I'll nail them properly to ensure they don't fly away." "Really?" "Yes!" "Alright then, good night." "Yeah..." "Lovey-dovey." "(Heart) Night (Heart)." "What's this!" "Disgusting!" "This...this is a lovey-dovey email?" "Ah, I see!" "I understand, Boss!" "I'll also do my best!" "Understood!" "Good morning~!" "Morning!" "Ah, I bothered you about the lovey-dovey matter yesterday." "Morning!" "Ah, I bothered you about the lovey-dovey matter yesterday." "It's ok now!" "Hehehe...!" "What?" "I've decided to try my best at aiming towards being lovey-dovey." "I see." "These emails are great, aren't they." "It feels like conveying the thoughts I can't speak out." "Guffaw...!" "I see." "Ah!" "Umeda!" "Lovey-dovey today, too?" "Please stop that." "You understand it?" "I understand~!" "Guffaw!" "Lovey-dovey~!" "Lovey-dovey~!" "A long, long time ago......memories of a long summer..." "Grandmom had said..." "Fireflies, you know (need) clean waters......and flowing rivers and untouched nature to exist." "...whenever summer draws near, I recall what seemingly could vanish at any moment the small, short-lived light." "Chapter 6" "This program was sponsored by 'Kao' and the following sponsors." "I am Asada Konatsu." "Because I was always a housewife..." ""Dried-Fish Woman's lovey-dovey emails"" "...I'm inexperienced at this sort of thing, if I say so myself." "The shop covers 20 tsuba." "It is not really unfavorably located however..." "(Note: 1 tsuba ＝ (10/33×6)^2 ＝ ~3.3 square metre.)" "...I'm thinking we can likely hammer out something distinctive." "Such as what kind of (place)?" "A shop women can enter alone and even relax alone would be good." "Meals would also be served, right?" "Yes." "Light items?" "Starting with some light things, and if possible, some heartier items, too." "Then, how about a grilled meat restaurant or something?" "(Note:" "Yakiniku restaurants are typically visited in groups, or by solitary men.)" "It's relaxing and you can eat plentifully, too." "(Note:" "Single women are rarely seen there - most go to cafes and coffee shops.)" "Mentor, do you go to grilled meat restaurants alone?" "(Note:" "Beef bowl restaurants, like Yoshinoya, are also almost always filled with solitary men.)" "Yeah...eh?" "You don't?" "Look you, create the image (of the store) from the owner's (imagined) atmosphere (of the place)." "Eh?" "A healing, gentle space would be good, right?" "That would be good." "We would like the privilege of making a few quickly, developed proposals." "Yes, please do so." "Is it ok after this (meeting)?" "Let's go around together to research this." "Yes, let's do that." "Mixing up work and private matters is also nice, isn't it.~." "She's the boss's woman." "You have it wrong." "She's just an acquaintance from his university days so it's nothing like that." "Is that so?" "Yes!" "Today's dinner is home cooking." "Dinner duties are yours. ^o^" "Guffaw!" "Hehehe!" "Understood!" "What do you think about it Seno?" "Huh?" "About my mentor, Amemiya, and the boss." "Ah, yeah I wonder." "Well, from the boss's point of view someone like Amemiya might be cute." "Cute?" "A person who goes to a grilled meat restaurant alone?" "That is also totally ok with me." "Rather, women who can't eat meals alone won't do for me." "Grilling meat alone?" "I'm going in!" "Grilled meat for lunch, you say..." "Ahh~... it's no good!" "I can't do it." "Yes, this is the first planning department." "Um, is a person called Amemiya there?" "Chika?" ""What do you want to eat?" "Crepe would be good!"" ""Crepe?" "What flavor would you like?" "Chocolate-banana with fresh cream!"" "Chika!" "Miss Amemiya!" "What?" "You said you had something to request." "It's about the boss..." ""Boss"..." "You stopped calling him "Papa"?" "Mama said "He's getting married to Amemiya so.." "...please stop it."..." "You're getting married, right?" "Yeah...although not right away." "Then, please lend me the boss!" "Please!" "Eh?" "Chika did?" "She has an illustrated diary for her summer vacation homework although all of her friends will write about going on trips with their families as for Chika, Ms. Konatsu is busy with the preparations for her store." "Ahh." "She said, "Please lend me the boss."" "Seems she wanted to be taken somewhere." "How about your next break?" "I have to show my face at the Ebisu Gallery." "Then, take your summer vacation earlier or something." "You also have summer vacation, right?" "Let me see." "I'll use my summer vacation for you." "Boy!" "Oh, Boss!" "It's so lovey-dovey!" "There are no ingredients in the miso soup." "That's because it is soup made of miso." "(Note:" "Miso soup typically has seaweed, tofu, green onions or some other ingredients in addition to the miso base itself.)" "Boss, please use your summer vacation for Chika's sake." "It's ok?" "Because Chika seemed so lonely." "That's why..." "No way?" "If it's ok with you." "Chika?" "I got the OK from the boss~!" "That's right!" "Isn't it great!" "I did it!" "Yahoo~!" "Eh?" "One night?" "Even one night is fine." "Because it's you, I'll lend him out overnight if you'd like." "Go have fun together!" "Ok, bye!" "Here." "Oh, thanks." "About how many days are you taking for summer vacation?" "Ahh, 3 days." "If that's the case, using two days and one night for Chika the remaining day will be a date with me." "The remaining day is for the general housecleaning." "So the remaining day is our date." "No, for cleaning." "Watching a movie, eating a meal at a stylish restaurant and, at night, a bar with a night view!" "Uuu!" "~ Feels just like a date." "A date from which era?" "No way, cleaning." "Boss..." "At first the plan was I'd use two days of my summer vacation for your sake and I decided that the remaining day will be the general housecleaning day." "Even if you don't do a general housecleaning, it's plenty clean already, isn't it?" "What is!" "Uwa!" "Uwaa~!" "If I left it alone, you'd die buried under dust without realizing it." "Jeez." "Well, fine then." "You know, Chika was extremely happy." "Really?" "So, I'm happy too." "While you and Chika are on your journey, Ms. Konatsu also can concentrate on her store." "Yeah..." "What kind of store would be good for Konatsu's store?" "She was saying a healing space or something." "How about something like a cat cafe?" "(Note:" "In Japan, there are stores where you can relax among cats.)" "If we use that kitty that comes in and out of our house, it will be cheaper." "The visitors would become filled with flea-women." "Mmm." "Then I wonder what would be good?" "Yo-ho, yo-ho." "Don't shift while sitting." "It's troublesome to stand though. hehe." "Send me emails, ok?" "When you're out with Chika, too." "Yeah." "Send them from Hakone, ok?" "(Note:" "A popular, hot spring resort area approximately an hour south of Tokyo.)" "Alright." "Somehow, there's a completely lovey-dovey feeling between us." "Really?" "For me, who had thought I'd prefer sleeping at home rather than be in love it's like a dream that I could be so lovey-dovey." "No, true lovey-dovey is..." "It looks like I'll sleep well again tonight." "Thank you." "Well, goodnight!" "Lovey-dovey ～" "♪～You ~ and ~ m~e~ yeah!" "Night." "This by you (Seno) is good, isn't it?" "Could you ask Ms. Konatsu about her opinion and specifically work it out?" "Yes!" "Here." "Huh?" "The boss today?" "Hmm?" "Ahh, it seems like he's taken his summer vacation early." "Hmm~ Then, the one contacting Ms. Konatsu will be me." "Please do!" "Izaki!" "Yes!" "Let's go to the presentation." "Ok." "Hi!" "We've returned!" "Haha Haha Hahahaha..." "Hotaru, please summarize the research results." "Huh...ok." "Hey, hey, got a moment..." "Say, are you doing the ex-girlfriend's store?" "Ex-girlfriend?" "Asada Konatsu." "She was your girlfriend!" "?" "No, no, not mine." "Not me." "Ah..." "I'm glad...." "But you know...." "Eh, the boss's?" "Former (girlfriend)." "Haa~ Ms. Konatsu is the boss's ex-girlfriend?" "Haa~ Ms. Konatsu is the boss's ex-girlfriend?" "So, we'd like to hear your opinion." "That's right." "The earlier the better." "How about today?" "I'm going overnight to Hakone with my daughter." "Since it's her summer vacation, I was pestered to no matter what." "I'm sorry." "When I return, I'll contact you right away." "Yes, goodbye." "Let's go!" "Ah, wait!" "So, Ms. Konatsu has a child." "She's called Chika even though she's an elementary school student, she's sensible." "I see~." ""I'm just rendezvousing with Chika."" ""Sorry for the wait~"" "Chika, the station's the other way..." "Eh..." "Why?" "Well, I was invited by Chika..." "The three of us can go." "I even bought three tickets so let's go!" "(Note:" "Since rail travel is common and Japan a relatively safe country, children buying tickets to distant locales is not unusual.)" "Please wait, Chika." "Why did you (do) such an arbitrary thing?" "Because, didn't you said it would be bad for the three of us to go?" "That's what we agreed upon." "I want the three of us to go~!" "Hakone?" "Ms. Konatsu, too?" ""Too," you say?" "It's not something to get that stubborn over, is it?" "Even with 3 the three of us, I don't really..." "What are you saying?" "Think about Amemiya..." "She said it." "That Chika seemed lonely." "Amemiya did?" "Yeah." "She said Chika was extremely happy." "She, too, was so happy about us coming together that her legs were flapping around." "She's that kind of person." "But, if she knew that I was with you..." "It's ok if we don't tell her." "Shall we go, Chika?" "It's ok~?" "Yeah." "Thanks!" "Good, let's go." "All right." "By any chance, is the boss also in Hakone?" "Whatever could you be talking about~?" "Hakone." "Arrived." "Bad weather." "Boss..." "Hakone." "With Ms. Konatsu after all." "It's alright." "This way, we can exchange lovey-dovey emails." "I'll say, "Understood!"" "Eh, that's all!" "?" "It's always like this, why?" "Your lying~?" "It's true~." "See!" ""Understood!" "Understood!" "Understood!" "Understood!"" "Guffaw..." "Embarrassing." "Which part of this is lovey-dovey?" "These are just business communications." "The boss is taking them well." "Like this!" "?" "This is fine!" "It's the middle of work!" "Alright." "Work, work!" "Oy, everyone's still here?" "Because the typhoon is looking to strike straight on, Ms. Yamada said it's ok to go." "You guys, too." "Quickly go home while the trains haven't stopped, alright?" "I want to finish this." "I'm also finishing summarizing the research." "Oh, that so?" "Miss Amemiya." "That Konatsu was the boss's woman, after all." "His ex-girlfriend, they said." "Ex-girlfriend..." "Well, I'm off." "Why don't you contact him~?" "Leaving him alone is dangerous, isn't it?" "Dangerous?" "It's invariably dangerous for a man and woman to spend a night together, I think." "But Chika is also there." "That has nothing to do with it." "But even you and I spent a night together." "That was because you were drunk..." "Well, I don't know." "Even you and I, what will occur hereafter?" "A man and a woman is something that can't be understood." "And over there, she's his ex-girlfriend right?" "Even more (worrying), eh?" "You listening to what I'm saying?" "He's with his ex-girlfriend..." "Don't say any more!" "Amemiya..." "I..." "I see." "You trust him." "You trust the boss." "It's bothersome." "Eh?" "This kind of conversation, thinking deeply, it's a bother." "Huh?" "The veranda doors." "Securely!" "Nail them down." "This is bad!" "The door!" "Door?" "I have to nail down the veranda doors so that they won't fly away!" "Wai..wait..the rain is immense." "But, I must do it!" "Wai..wait.." "The conversation about the boss and Ms. Konatsu?" "That's why that kind of thing's a bother." "Fastening the veranda doors isn't a bother like that sort of bother?" "I promised." "The door is a promise with the boss." "Uwa!" "I really don't understand your reasoning!" "Eh!" "Damn it~!" "Damn it~!" "Damn it~!" "Damn it~!" "What are you doing?" "What do you want to do?" "It's a promise with the boss~!" "Ah~!" "Hey, do you have a raincoat?" "I'll help out." "I..." "I'm grateful!" "But, there's not much point nailing them down now, is there?" "But I promised~!" "Ahh, I got it, I got it..." "Woah~!" "Ah, look out!" "Ouch~!" "From:" "Boss, Subject:" "Report "The two of us, Chika and I, are having fun."" ""There's nothing to worry about." "Be careful of the typhoon."" "Is this also the boss's?" "Ah..." "They're his countryside father's track pants." "The boss doesn't wear track pants." "Why's that?" ""Why," you say..." "I too wear track pants at home." "They're comfortable." "Eh?" "Oh, can I have this?" "Yeah, go ahead." "Ahh~!" "I'm tired~!" "《By any chance, is this guy a dried-fish man?" "》" "Ah..." "I've just come and relaxed at someone's home, sorry." "Oh, it's fine." "Hello?" "Amemiya." "I'm sorry." "I did something selfish and now I've surely been punished." "Chika, what's wrong?" "I did something deceiving to you there are really three of us..." "It's ok." "That's ok." "What's wrong?" "What happened?" "Boss and mama haven't come back!" "What?" "Boss went to get a hat I forgot at a mountain hut and he contacted us saying he hurt his leg." "What!" "?" "And then, mama also went to the mountain hut but also when I place a call to his cell phone, it won't connect anymore." "I'll come immediately!" "She said that boss got hurt." "I'm going right now." "What's the situation?" "I must go!" "Check what the situation is." "Let go!" "I must go!" "It's ok so settle down!" "Amemiya!" "(Going to) Hakone now in this rain..." "Even the trains are probably not running." "Look, carefully ask one more time about the situation." "Thank you very much." "Bye." "It's certain they're at the mountain hut." "His leg is hurt so it seems he's resting there." "When it gets light, they'll send out a car, the person at the hotel said." "Seno, can you come over here?" "Eh?" "Because that is the boss's spot." "Oh, sorry." "There?" "Thanks." "No, I didn't know there was such an arrangement." "I don't mean that it was arranged, but before we had noticed it naturally occured." "Ohh~" "From the start, I've been bad with love and such." "Things like struggling for somebody with others and those kinds of love affairs, too." "When I start to feel unpleasant, I, becoming exhausted, am also unpleasant it's bothersome." "But the boss was different." "He was different." "Naturally before I had knew it, naturally I realized he was there." "Next to me." "I see." "We always drink beer on this veranda." "At the end of a day, on this veranda, the two of us get scolded and get angry and laugh... ..with the boss, the two of us talking about silly things." "And then, feeling relieved believe we can do our best again tomorrow." "By being together with the boss, I understood." "A beer drank alone also tastes good, but a beer drank together tastes even better." "I want to see the boss." "So you really love him." "The boss." "That is what you can earnestly call love." "Are you properly conveying those feelings to the boss?" "Ah... now that you mention it, no." "You must convey them." "Then, (with) something like staying overnight with Ms. Konatsu in Hakone he probably might not have gone." "How... in what way do I convey it?" "It's enough just to tell him how you love him." "But for me, that kind of thing..." "I know you're not good at it, but can't you do it if it's an email?" "Look, did you say it?" "If it's (by) email, I feel I can convey even the thoughts I can't say." "Amemiya." "If you grudge doing anything, you will lose an important person." "Go!" "Eh!" "?" "I like/love you." "(Note:" "Due to the ambiguity of the Japanese word 'suki', it can be interpreted as either like or love depending on the situation.)" "Why'd you send it to me~." "I thought I'd try practicing." "I'm sorry." "Boy." "After all, so easily..." "Why can't I do it?" "As if I know." "Ah... that's mine..." "As if I care!" "Oh, they turned on." "I'll will go see him after all." "Amemiya." "Or should I say, why the newspaper?" "Thank you very much." "My first time (picking up/helping) a hitchhiker like you." "Oh, you forgot something." "Oh, sorry." "When you ascend there, it's faster (reaching) the mountain hut." "Ok." "Boss, wait for me!" "Boss!" "Yikes!" "Boss~!" "Grr!" "Huff huff huff...." "That's it." "Huff huff...." "Boss!" "Wowa!" "Boss!" "《Is this lovey-dovey?" "》" "《This is what's called true lovey-dovey?" "》" "《Boss... boss...》" "《Please let me in, too.》" "《Cold... it's cold.》" "《I also (want) the blanket...the blanket.》 oopf." "Oh, say." "What should I do with the key?" "Shall I give it to you at the office?" "Hello, Amemiya?" "Are you crying?" "Amemiya." "It's ok..." "I'm ok." "This is the first time I've met someone like you." "I about you..." "I'll support you." "So that you'll be able to be lovey-dovey with the boss forever I'll support you." "So, tell the boss properly that you love him, you fool!" "I wonder why it's not going well." "Even though he and you both mutually love each other." "I'm no good." "If I had better conveyed my feelings properly maybe things wouldn't have become like this." "Then, please tell him." "Well... for the life of me, I couldn't type it." "What?" "An email?" "I stopped at the "Lo" of "Love"." "Then, I'll do it for you..." "Hey, please stop." "Why can't you type it." "I'm not used to that." "That's not all, is it?" "Because he lied." "Lied?" "Even though he was also together with Ms. Konatsu he said that, with Chika, the two were having fun..." "He sent a false email." "When I think about the false email, I would still be unable to type/send (a response) even if he had written the truth, right?" "If a truthful email like, "The three of us, with Ms. Konatsu, are getting along well," came, you'd be increasingly unable to type/send (a response)." "No matter how much you search for excuses for something you can't do, it can't be helped!" "Why do you have a mouth for!" "?" "Futa~." "Hmm?" "Let's get married." "Huh!" "?" "(Hotaru) Eh?" "This semi-living together is also good, but let's have our names entered in the family registry." "(Note:" "In Japan, marriage is legal only when the couple's names have been entered into the family registry.)" "Please have me for your wife." "Ah..." "I love you." "Yama...!" "Can't do it like this by email." "I love you, too." "You can't rely only on emails." "Let's get married!" "After that, Hotaru, what's called lovey-dovey is saying things like this." "Futa." "Yama." "Aah!" "Oh, Yama...!" "Wowa!" "I get it..." "I got it so...!" "...please continue in bed!" "Welcome home." "I'm home." "I bought this dust cloth to use for the general housecleaning." "No need for a dust cloth." "I have one made out of a shirt." "Ah." "Then, I'll just use this when I'm washing my face." "AhoMiya." "Aa..." "Let's do the general housecleaning...general housecleaning." "Aho.." "AhoMiya, why are you in that "Mr. Ikkyuu"-like outfit." "(Note:" "Referring to the stylized outfit worn in Ikkyuu-san, an anime based on the influential Zen Buddhist priest and poet, Ikkyū Sōjun, 1394-1481.)" "Somehow, because of the general housecleaning." "Won't you listen to what I have to say?" "I'll listen if it's witty but." "(Note:" "Referencing the aforementioned Ikkyuu-san anime.)" "It was inexcusable that I didn't tell you about being with Ms. Konatsu." "But... why is it I didn't say anything?" "A Tonchi quiz?" "(Note:" "Another reference to the Ikkyuu-san anime and Ikkyuu-san's Tonchi quiz, a guessing game.)" "Either way would have been fine." "It's inconsequential regardless of whether Konatsu was there or not." "The reason that I went was for Chika to enjoy herself." "But..." "Last night, I sprained my ankle." "The wind and rain became fierce and I was resting in the mountain hut when a worried Konatsu came." "Boss, after that..." "You probably came to the mountain hut, too." "If I don't explain it accurately, you will involuntarily run wild with the wrong ideas." "Even I intend to understand what happened with you." "After injuring your leg, it hurt, right?" "The typhoon was scary, right?" "Yeah." "Being the unaccustomed child's companion by day, you tired." "Yeah." "No, that girl, more than being level-headed is quite shrewd." "Then, because you were exhausted, you fell asleep, right?" "Yeah." "I won't have any wrong, wild ideas or such about you and Ms. Konatsu." "Because I believe that you are not that kind of person." "AhoMiya..." "But..." "But?" "You two nestling was a shock." "Isn't this true lovey-dovey, I thought." "No, those lovey-dovey feelings for Konatsu..." "Even if you say there are none, it is a shock." "I thought exchanging emails back and forth or so was (being) lovey-dovey." "I was overoptimistic." "I was really hopeless." "I somewhat didn't understand what true lovey-dovey really is." "Boss." "Hm?" "Eyy." "Wa.. ouch." "What are you doing..." "Are you ok!" "?" "I'm sorry!" "No..." "I was thinking, too." "About true lovey-dovey." "Eh?" "Imitating others, we tried exchanging emails but lovey-dovey with you is not that...." "Boss?" "Being together with you, there's something I've realized." "A beer drank alone also tastes good, but a beer drank together tastes even better." "Boss." "I'm sorry." "Thanks for coming to the mountain hut for me." "No." "I must also properly convey my feelings." "Huh?" "Boss." "I lo.." "lo..." "lov~...." "What?" "Tonchi quiz?" "I love you." "Ah... itadakimasu." "What did you just say?" "I can't say it a second time." "I couldn't hear it." "Hehehe." "Cheers!" "Cheers." "Ah~ delicious." "Aah~." "That's great." "Although, it might have been better had I told Amemiya the circumstances." "Sorry for causing such trouble." "No." "Chika was writing in her illustrated diary with a happy look." "Thanks." "Which reminds me, your vacation day's general housecleaning is good, too, but why don't you take Amemiya out somewhere?" "Yeah, a movie, a stylish restaurant, and a bar with a night view at night." "A date from which era?" "She said it." "Said she wants to have that kind of a date." "Hearing something like that, it seems Amemiya is just an ordinary girl, too." "Really?" "Just the veranda is no good, after all?" "Just the veranda is fine." "Sure about dates?" "Something like watching a movie." "For me, as long as there's the veranda with the boss, the two of us being there is lovey-dovey." "Is that so?" "Yes." "Like/Love." "END" "Good morning." "Morning." "I'm sorry (for having this meeting) so early in the morning." "An all-nighter?" "Despite my contract, I worked overtime." "This is for Ms. Konatsu's store." "Ah." "It's been expanded listening to Amemiya from the initial proposal." "To create the impression of a relaxing veranda." "You spoke with Amemiya?" "Ah~ I borrowed your raincoat." "Oh, iincidently, here." "Why (do you have) the house key?" "You haven't heard?" "I'll come back once I've got something sensible to say." "(literally 'I'll wash my head and come again.' Here, he says 'I'll take a shower...' instead, meaning he really needs to clear his head!" ")" "Seno." "I'm sorry." "Why apologize?" "I..." "I've fallen for Amemiya." "Ah~." "Oh." "Did the boss leave early?" "Ah!" "Ah~ I forgot the raincoat!" "If I had dried it properly." "If something like this pilled up wet as it is, the smell..." "Stinks!"
