"[I still remember the time I spent with you.]" "[In those three years we've spent our time together, how many times have I been fooled by your strange lies?" "]" "Hey, you should be careful." "For what?" "Even when you are casually reading magazines, they can read everything that's going on in your mind." "Huh?" "One in every five people in this world is an esper!" "It's true!" "I checked." "How?" "It's simple." "If you think someone is suspicious, you think this in your mind, without saying out loud:" ""Ah!" "There's a spider on your shoulder!"" "And, if he gets startled and looks at his shoulder, he is an esper for certain!" "I was really surprised when I did it in a crowded place!" "By the way, in this university..." "Miyuki is an esper for sure!" "Miyuki is?" "Why don't you check, if you don't believe me?" "Sorry to keep you waiting." "A-lunch again?" "!" "Only eating biscuits again?" "Want some?" "Are you going to the afternoon class?" "American studies?" "Yes!" "Hey, Miyuki, you are a Virgo, right?" "Yes." "Virgo is number one in fortune today!" " Spider."

"I think it's better to cross from there." "Oh." "The students always make them wait forever up there, so the drivers never stop here." "Even though it's a pedestrian crossing?" "Well, yes..." "Are you a senior?" "Huh?" "I'm attending that university starting today." "I'm a freshman too." "I tried to cross from here on the day of entrance exam, and gave up." "Then we are both late to the entrance ceremony!" "Well, I wasn't planning to attend the entrance ceremony in the first place." "Why?" "Well, I kind of dislike crowded places." "Anyway, you should cross from over there." "Good bye." "Don't mind me." "I just want to check something." "Whether or not, there is a kind person who would still stop for me." "Putin."

"Not that kind of stink, I mean it stinks like medicine." "Oh!" "It's probably that factory across the street." "I heard it smells even worse during summer." "Smell?" "Is there medicine for me, that doesn't smell as much?" "Did your medicine smell?" "Hmm?" "There's no smell." "Sure there is!" "You've been using it since you were a child." "It's just your imagination!" "What?" "I was always hopelessly distracted by this smell." "Maybe they are making poison!" "How's that even possible?" "!" "And so, I distanced myself from other people in my life." "Is this seat taken?" "Eh?" "Well, yes." "Why did you take my picture in the pedestrian crossing?" "You noticed?" "Usually people would." "Well, somewhat." "What do you mean by "somewhat"?" "Somewhat." "What department are you in?" "English Department." "I'm Satonaka Shizuru, of French Department." "I'm Segawa Makoto." "I have chronic rhinitis." "What?" "My sense of smell is only about 1/100 of an average person." "Really..." "I see." "Right." "Did you make any friends?" "No, not really." "Me neither." "At this age, it's not easy making new friends, huh?" "That's all you are eating for lunch?" "Yes." "Want some?" "No, thanks." "But it's delicious..." "Doughnut biscuits, my staple food." "Biscuits are?" "Yes." "Wheat gives out wonderful aroma, and there's a hole in the middle!" "Then, why don't WE become friends?" "What?" "Can't we?" "I don't get how it got to "Then"."

"You just thought in your mind:" ""I don't think of you as a woman", didn't you!" "?" "I didn't look!" "By the way," "What?" "Did you get across the predestrian crossing?" "I didn't."

"Only a soccer referee in baseball field can cross something like that." "You can cross it." "It's actually quite easy." "What?" "I know how to cross that pedestrian crossing." "How?" "Wow!" "I can cross it as many times as I want!" "Hey..." "Incredible!" "Well then," "I'll get going." "Huh?" "Bye." "All right." "You there!" "Eh?" "It says "No Trespassers"." "It does, but..." "Why are you going in?" "Photography." "It's my hobby." "Really..." "What are you doing?" "There's plenty of time left until my class." "Yes, but..." "Ah!" "Ah!" "Look!" "Hey, wait!" "There it is!" "Are you sure it's that way?" "I heard it." "Really?" "Where?" "Probably that way." "How cute!" "Oh..." "There we go." "Will birds actually eat something like this?" "Sure they will!" "It's tastiest food in the world!" "Bit more to the right." "That way." "Right?" "Okay." "Hey." "Huh?" "What?" "Have you ever had a kissed someone before, Makoto?" "Huh?" "Do you?" "Yes I do." "Really?" "How did it feel?" "How...?" "Did it feel like something sweet?" "Well, yes." "Like something melting?" "Well, I guess it melted." "You've never done it before, have you?" "Sure I have!" "Many times!" "Okay, I'm finished." "Was I heavy?" "No, I'm actually surprised because you were so light!" "You really eat nothing but doughnut biscuits, huh?" "But I'm getting enough nutrition." "What I lack is growth hormone." "Huh?" "There are crumbles of biscuits on your hair." "Oh, it's okay." "See?" "Isn't it great?" "Yes." "Delicious!" "Here." "Just one is enough." "Okay, one more." "Segawa." "Ah!" "Why don't you join us in that table?" "What?" "How can you enjoy the food by yourself?" "We are all in the same class anyway." "If you would like." "Thanks." "Right." "He's here." "Oh!" "Oh." "Hello." "Why don't you sit down?" "Go ahead." "Okay." "Are you okay, dude?" "But what a surprise." "You can talk!" "What?" "Well, how many month has it been since we came here?" "I've never seen you talking with anyone." "Well, some people are like that." "Are you that type of person?" "No, I don't really dislike talking with other people." "So you like talking?" "I have just been a bit shy until now." "You sure have been shy for a long time!" "Well, let's have a toast in celebration of our new buddy." "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "What's the point if you didn't join us?" "Cheers." "Nice to meet ya." "Sekiguchi, catch." "Go it!" "Saki, here."

"It's so hot, we should jump in without them." "What?" "Don't you think?" "Yes, right." "Hey, what's that?" "Oh, I scratched it up a little bit." "What?" "Not scratched by someone?" "No." "Come on, show me!" "No!" "Why?" "I bet there are 10 nail marks left by a girl under that bandage!" " Sorry to keep you waiting." "Why?" "I bet there are 10 nail marks left by a girl under that bandage!" "See?" "I told you they would be speechless with awe." "We are not speechless with awe!" "Right?" "Dude!" "Pull yourself together." "Got it!" "Come on!" "Miyuki, a bit closer to the middle." "It will take the picture in about five seconds." "It's starting." "3, 2, 1..." "Yay!" "You are staring too eagerly!" "Your breasts are so small!" "Shut up!" "You guy should've came too!" "We don't feel like it, we are not kids." "What, kids?" "I'm an adult too!" "I took this one." "Wouldn't your girlfriend be angry if she finds out about this?" "...Huh?" "Girlfriend?" "What?" "You have a girlfriend?" "No I don't." "Really?" "I saw you walking with a girl before." "With who?" "I think it was the girl in French Department." "No, she's not my girlfriend." "Just a friend." "Really?" "Who?" "Who is it?" "You know her too." "You know, in International Affairs class." "Remember that girl who always sleeps behind us?" "Oh, her!" "You are going out with someone like her?" "Who is it?" "Remember?" "She's got really messed up hair, always wiping her nose!" "To summarize..." "A weirdo!" "Weirdo, weirdo!" "That's saying too much!" "A normal person won't go out with her." " I'm telling you, she's just a friend." "A normal person won't go out with her." "Don't be shy!" "Everyone has different tastes." "Hey!" "That's not how it is!" "I'm not discriminating, it's just a matter of preference." "No, no." "A girl who fits your description is standing right behind you." "What?" "Look!" "You hurt her feelings." "I didn't know she was standing behind me." "You think you are allowed to say bad things about her just because you didn't know?" "I didn't say bad things about her!" "You just called her a weirdo!" "I was just going with the flow." "So you wouldn't have said it by yourself?" "I was just going with the flow." "I just remembered I had to do something." "I have to go." "Okay." "Later." "Why did you say that for?" "I told you!" "You were saying too much." "What is it?" "I'm sorry." "For what?" "They didn't have any bad intentions." "They are always like that, just making fun of me." "I don't really mind." "Really?" "Then I'm relieved." "Do you really believe that?" "Then you really are an insentive fool!" "I don't mind them calling me weird at all." "I'm already used to it." "It's you who made me sad." ""She's just a friend, she's just a friend", as if you are making an excuse." "I'm not at all happy to have such a friend!" "I'm sorry." "If you really are a friend, you could've defended me a little." "Yes." "You could've said "She's not a weirdo."" ""She's just a bit more 'original' than other people!"" "Hey there..." "This..." "Here." "I found it in a souvenier shop by the countryside." "For me?" "Yes, I hope you like it." "After I eat this," "I'm going to cry." "Huh?" "I was trying my best not to, but I'm going to cry." "Why?" "I will cry for sure!" "Will you cry out loud?" "Then, I'll take it back." "No!" "Why?" "Crank the shutter twice." "Did you change the aperture?" "Yes I did." "Number 4." "What the?" "Oh!" "Try one more time." "One more time." "What?" "What's wrong?" "That was painful." "Why?" "Well, we are holding our breaths." "What?" "What?" "What?" "What is it?" "That house." "Wow!" "The rent is a lot cheaper than a condo near the train station." "I see..." "Sit down." "Okay." "Want something to drink?" "Yes." "Hey, what's this?" "Ah!" "Don't touch these without permission." "Oh, I'm sorry." "You don't have to hide them in such a hurry." "It's not like that." "You are a boy, you need to use things like that." "What are you confusing them with?" "Don't worry about it." "The darkroom is over there." "Right." "You will be doing this in pitch-dark." "Okay." "Are your eyes really closed?" "Yes they are." "Ah!" "Hold on!" "What?" "It's not rolling on!" "See?" "You are right." "Pull it out." "Take out the photographic paper." "Okay." "Put this in the developer liquids." "Put it in." "Gently." "Gently." "Right." "That's fine." "Now soak it through." "Soak it through." "All of it." "All of it." "Wow, amazing!" "Hey, what do I do after this?" "Huh?" "Oh, pick it up from the corner..." "Sorry, it's getting late!" "Don't worry, the trains are still running." "I always forget the time passing when I'm developing photographs." "Yeah, time passes really fast when you are having fun!" "Wait here for a minute." "I'll walk you to the station after I get the last one developed." " Okay." "I'll walk you to the station after I get the last one developed." "Ah!" "You made me so happy today." "Huh?" "That picture..." "You taught me how to develop the pictures too." "Oh, that." "Come again anytime." "I can?" "It's a lot faster than taking it out to photo lab." "I'm really going to come!" "I'll come for sure!" "Sure." "Eventually," "I'll become a woman who you can't wait to take picture of!" "What do you mean?" "I'm going to become a woman who will fill your room with her picture!" "What are you talking about?" "Oh, but not yet." "Wait a little while longer." "At least until I can take off these glasses." "Your eyeglasses?" "Yes, the doctor told me I can take these glasses off when I'm grown up, and my vision gets better." "What?" "I told you before, right?" "What I lack, is growth hormone." "Will you really grow up?" "Yes I will!" "My breast will get bigger, and my hip will be round too, and even my teeth will grow again." "Really?" "I still have baby tooth in the back." "What?" "!" "Really?" "But don't worry!" "From now, I will grow up, become unbelievably beautiful, and become a woman loved by everyone!" "What would you do, if I became incredible?" "!" "Incredible?" "What is?" "You know, everything!" "Here and there, this and that!" "Really..." "I'm going to become an adult woman, wear a REALLY revealing dress, and get into a sexy pose right in front of you!" "When I take my glasses off, is when you will be truly astonished!" "Got it?" "I wonder if it will be." "Wait a minute!" "Are you trying to imagine it, but can't?" "Don't worry..." "I mean..." "What do you mean by "Don't worry"?" "Nothing." "What do you mean by "Don't worry"?" "!" "You are already an university student!" "It's just the beginning for me!" "A university student, but!" "It's just the beginning for me." "Impossible." "Not impossible!" " Impossible." " Not impossible!" "The means of transportation for weapons of mass destruction, the missile are..." "[Lately, I wanted to be with her all the time,] [so I stopped applying my medicine.]" "It stinks." "Someone close the windows." "It really smells bad, doesn't it?" "Poison gas factory?" "Yes." "That thing is a big help for me though." "What?" "Nothing..." "What are you reading?" "Is it interesting?" "It's very interesting." "Really..." "I will become a bride one day too." "I'm sure you will become a beautiful bride." "Thank you." "It's nothing." "What about you, Segawa?" "You never think about getting married?" "I don't!" "It's not even close for me." "But you will one day, right?" "I wonder if I will..." "I don't think I'll ever get married." "Why?" "Just a feeling." "That's such a waste!" "You really think so?" "Not for you." "For someone who is supposed to be with you." "Oh." "You hold happiness for another person in your hands." "Somewhere in this world, a girl is waiting to receive that happiness." "So you have to make sure that girl gets the happiness you hold." "Are you okay?" "Yes." "It's pretty hard to walk here." "But this isn't that bad." "Sorry, did we make you wait?" "Hello." "Hello." "Miyuki really wanted to come when I told her about this place." "It's a really comfortable place!" "Isn't it?" "Just ahead, there's a..." "Hmm?" "Sorry, can you wait here for a while?" "Sure." "What's wrong?" "Yes, she is beautiful." "Really beautiful." "In addition, she knows she's beautiful." "But I'm not saying that's a bad thing." "That's why people from same sex and opposite sex both like her, old people and kids like her," "I'm sure puppies love her too!" "She really is a perfect woman!" "What's wrong?" "I'm saying she's complete opposite of me!" "Why did you bring her here?" "What?" "Wasn't this OUR place?" "Wasn't this an important place just for the two of us?" "The US government and..." "Do you mind if I sit here?" "Go ahead." "Thank you." "Uh..." "Um, I'm sorry for yesteday..." "Excuse me." "Ah!" "Amethyst!" "What?" "Do you have an Amethyst yourself?" "No." "Do you have an Amethyst yourself?" "I heard this is a gem that will make people love you." "Wow!" "Isn't it cute?" "It's beautiful!" "Isn't it beautiful?" "Ah!" "Is that rose quartz?" "Right!" "These are both gems of love, right?" "It's cute!" "It's heart-shaped." "That's right." "Heart-shaped." "What are you doing?" "Oh!" "Not "Oh"!" "Segawa, these are gems of love." "Right." "Okay." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "What are you doing?" "What?" "Stop playing around, why are you with Miyuki?" "We became friends somehow." "Weren't you angry at her yesterday?" "I wasn't particularly angry at her." "That's true, but..." "Are you up to something?" "I'm not up to anything." "No way!" "No way?" "Yes." "I just want..." "The person I love, to fall in love, with the person he loves." "[Wanting "the person she loves, to fall in love, with the person he loves."]" "[Such complex relationship lasted until the fall of our Junior year.]" "Spider!" "Spider." "What is it?" "Uh, nothing." "Hey!" "What?" "What?" "Nothing." "So?" "What did you decide to do?" "Uh, well..." "Is Sekiguchi in the seminar?" "Shirahama and Yuuka are in internship, and" "Saki is in the Berlitz program, not the scheduled lecture." "I see." "They all began to prepare for the job hunting." "That's right." "What about you, Segawa?" "Well..." "Why don't you take pictures for rest of your life, rather than finding a job?" "How am I supposed to make a living doing that?" "Eat grass or something." "Miyuki, you've already found a career, right?" "I'm sorry for you guys, I'm using my father's connections." "Was it foreign company?" "Right." "In addition, I'll be working overseas." "I basically picked it just for that." "You are pretty oldfashioned, despite your looks." "Sorry." "I see." "You are going overseas when you graduate." "We are going to miss you." "We are going to miss you." "Wait a minute?" "What about you?" "You haven't decided what to do either, right?" "[[Job guide's search]]" "This, this, and this..." "What are you doing?"

"So I wanted them to let me use an empty room." "In the university?" "Yes." "What?" "Nothing." "I went to the real estate office too," "But they treated my like a child, and wouldn't rent me a room!" "So that's why!" "What do you mean by "So that's why"?" "Sorry." "I found a target this evening." "Hiking club's office." "They already split up, so no one uses it, right?" "I'm going to borrow the football team's large showers too." "Why don't you just come to my house?" "What?" "[I didn't know why I was saying something like that.]" "You used to come often, remember?" "["Why don't you come to my house?", ha!" "]" "You should've just asked me from the start." "You are okay with that?" "It's been so long!" "You stopped coming for some reason." "Because Miyuki wouldn't have liked it." "But it hasn't changed at all!" "Well, there's really no reason for me to change it." "Hey, what about the darkroom?" "It's still there." "So it's still there!" "Wanna do it?" "Should we?" "When did you take that picture?" "!" "Recently." "I think I like these more than landscape." "I see..." "That's why, I've been taking nothing but pictures of people." "Hmm?" "I'm finished with the bath." "Okay." "Are you going in right now?" "Uh, no." "Hey," "Hmm?" "Are you sick?" "That's not nice!" "Huh?" "Girl's medicine." "Don't be looking through them without permission." "(She is implying something like birth control pills by "Girl's medicine".)" "(She is implying something like birth control pills by "Girl's medicine".)" "Sorry." "[She used to lie very often.]" "It seems we are a couple on medicine." "What?" "Never mind." "Let's sleep." "You can use the bed, I'll use..." "Huh?" "It's my first time." "Please be gentle." "Wait, wait!" "It's fine." "I have no money." "I'm already prepared to pay with my body." "No..." "I don't mind..." "If you use that greasy stuff." "Wait, hold on!" "I didn't bring you here with such intentions." "Absolutely none." "Just, as a friend." "Is it because I haven't grown up at all?" "No that's not how it is..." "Because my breasts didn't get any bigger?" "No..." "What now?" "I'm sleeping right here." "You can use the bed." "I'm sleeping right here!" "I don't care if you regret it later." "What?" "I will grow up, and you will wonder: "Why didn't I sleep with such a wonderful woman?"" "Good night." "Good night." "Idiot!" "Idiot!" "Idiot!" "Idiot!" "Idiot!" "Idiot..." "I'm going to go on ahead." "Why?" "Let's go together." "I'm going ahead." "Are you still upset?" "No." "What if someone sees us together here?" "Going to class together, that's..." "You already gave me a place to stay." "I don't want to give you any more trouble by getting in the way of your love life." "Bye!" "You walk too slowly." "Why are you following me?" "It's because you walk too slowly!" "Then, why don't you just go on ahead?" "Well, I can't do that, I would feel sorry for you..." "Shizuru!" "Morning!" "Good morning." "Morning." "Morning." "You can cook?" "I made it all the time at home." "Really." "I was taking care of my little brother too." "You have a brother?" "Just one little brother." "He already passed away though." "What?" "!" "A week ago." "He was in bed for a long time because of an disease." "You ran away from home because..." "Yes." "I was discouraged by it, I mean..." "It became awkward for me to stay home, and I had a fight with my dad." "Then I just ran out!" "What's the name of your little brother's disease?" "People with this disease die when they fall in love." "What!" "?" "People with this disease die when they fall in love." "Just kidding, a genetic one." "Oh." "My mom passed away in the same disease." "What?" "It was when I was still small." "So, me and my father are the only ones survivors." "Do you know what this means?" "In other words, I inherited my father's genes, and became an unfeminine woman like this." "Even my hair is rough like steel wires!" "Shall we eat?" "Yes." "Here you go." "You can drink alcohol?" "Probably." "Cheers." "Cheers." "Let's eat!" "Let's eat!" "It's delicious." "Isn't it?" "It really taste great." "Right?" "Right?" "I'm really proud of my cooking skill!" "What is it?" "Nothing, it's just that I have never seen you eat anything other than doughnut biscuits." "I do eat other things!" "Don't stare me like that!" "But I want to." "I'm going to eat a lot, and grow up a lot too!" "Okay." "My breasts are going to be this big, and..." "Wear a really revealing dress, right?" "What?" "You are already 21." "I will!" "I will grow up!" "Sure, sure." "I don't care if you regret it later!" "You will say to yourself: "I should've slept with her back then!"" "Sure, sure." "Makoto, you idiot!" "Are these onions?" "Aren't they cute?" "Yes." "They are tiny." "RU488's existence was first confirmed in France..." "Reading this again?" "Don't you ever get bored of it?" "No." "By the way, did you know?" "What?" "That today is my birthday." "Ah!" "Sorry, I completely forgot!" "As I thought." "Sorry." "I'm really sorry." "If you feel that bad about it, there's somewhere I want you to accompany me with." "Did something good happen?" "Just a little." "It has to do with Miyuki anyway, right?" "Well, it doesn't matter to me." "Anyway, what do you think about photography?" "What you mean?" "Do you want to continue it for rest of your life?" "For example, as a career?" "What?" "I'm thinking of becoming a photographer." "I'm sure it will take many years from now, but..." "It made me think that way after seeing your pictures." "Mine?" "Yes." "That I can't have you beating me forever..." "So as a test of my skill," "I want to take part in a photography competition." "Why don't you apply too?" "I will if you will!" "Then let's plan for the competition later." "A strategy meeting!" "Yes." "We have to take photos for the competition too." "Sounds fun!" "Where should we take them?" "I think we should go somewhere farther than usual." "Travel around for a bit, and find our themes." "It's starting to sound more and more interesting!" "When should we go?" "Let's see..." "How about this Sunday?" "Uh, this Sunday is..." "Why?" "Let's go!" "I..." "Have plans with Miyuki..." "It can't be helped!" "I promised Miyuki first." "You are the devil, Makoto." "You make people really happy, then sends them straight down to the bottom of Hell." "Bottom of Hell?" "Is it a date?" "No, you know, that..." "Wedding convention or something?" "Just accompanying her for that." "Oh, Miyuki was telling me she wanted to go there." "She's oldfashioned despite her looks, right?" "So she chose you after all!" "Hmm?" "Fine!" "Go!" "In that very moment, my lost love will be confirmed." "That very moment, when you picked Miyuki over me." "You don't have to..." "What about your clothes?" "Huh?" "What are you going to wear?" "The usual." "Don't you have a suit or something?" "I don't." "Then go buy it tomorrow." "Just for that?" "Of course!" "It's a wedding convention." "Miyuki is going to see her dream!" "But if the boy standing beside her is battered down like you..." "Oh..." "And, let's see..." "What about money?" "Money?" "Oh..." "Right, I'll withdraw from the bank." "You have to be ready." "Right, even a loser can dress for success." "Shut up!" "I'm going to use the restroom." "You are that nervous?" "Shut up." "Hold on!" "Wait, stop!" "Your shoes!" "Wait, your shoes." "Get going!" "Okay." "Be careful!" "Excuse me, I have to use the restroom." "[Shizuru put...]" "Ah!" "It was wonderful!" "Wasn't it?" "Segawa." "Eh?" "Oh, yes." "What's the line for?" "They take pictures for you." "What pictures?" "A souvenier photo wearing one of the dress in the show." "Really?" "Let's go home." "Thank you very much for accompanying me for today." "You don't want to get the photo?" "It probably takes a lot of time." "But you are smiling again." "But you are not smiling." "Your mind is somewhere else." "Well, that is..." "It seems you want to go home as soon as possible." "Someone waiting for you in home?" "No one's waiting for me!" "That was a joke." "But it really doesn't matter." "I'm already satisfied." "Wait." "Okay, we will take the picture now." "Why don't you hold hands?" "Huh?" "Uh, um..." "What?" "Never mind, it's nothing." "Does it hurt?" "Not at all." "Then you don't have to cry." "But..." "Which tooth came off?" "The one in far right." "Which one?" "No!" "I'm not showing to you!" "Where's the tooth that came off?" "Here." "You really had a baby tooth!" "I told you!" "I'm still growing up." "Don't touch!" "Shizuru." "Are you asleep?" "Close to." "You?" "Close to." "Then, do your best to sleep." "When's your birthday, Shizuru?" "Why?" "We should celebrate your birthday too." "Are you planning to make me happy, then send me to Hell?" "That's not what I..." "Don't worry about celebrating for me." "Right now, you should only think about Miyuki." "You should only think about fulfilling your love for Miyuki." "To be in relationship isn't the only way to be in love." "What?" "One sided love is..." "In its own way, a complete love." "Either way," "Miyuki will be going overseas when she graduate." "There's no reason to break our existing relationship to..." "A coward's reasoning." "I'm going to sleep." "Then, give me a present too." "What?" "A birthday present." "Sure." "What do you want?" "A kiss." "Kiss me." "Is there anything else you want?" "If you kissed me, I might die from happiness!" "What are you talking about?" "Did you kiss Miyuki already?" "I did." "At least five times." "Then do it with me too." "With you too..." "I was thinking of "Lovers" for my photo's theme." ""Lovers kissing"." "I want you to be in my self-portrait with me." "For the competition?" "Right." "As an model for a photograph?" "That's right." "When's your birthday?" "I'll make it tomorrow!" "Tomorrow?" "!" "Few steps forward." "Forward?" "A bit more." "A bit more." "Ah..." "Just a little bit more." "Okay!" "Here." "Are you sure?" "Sure, it's just a kiss." "As a birthday present?" "As a model, right?" "Good morning." "Good morning." "Ah!" "Hold on." "Huh?" "You can take them off?" "Yes." "I can almost see clearly now." "What is it?" "Uh..." "Is it just me, or are you taller than when we first met?" "You just realized it now?" "You really were growing up." "Yes, my breasts are incredible too!" "Wanna see?" "Uh, no." "That's okay." "Should we get going soon?" "I'll stay here just a while longer." "Oh." "Yes." "You can go now." "You are going to your class, right?" "Yes." "It's a party tonight." "What?" "A party for the completion of your photo." "I'll make dinner tonight." "Even if I made every dish on my menu..." "There would only be like three dishes though!" "See you later." "Hey, Makoto." "Yeah?" "Was there at least a tiny bit of love in that kiss?" "Eh!" "?" "Never mind." "Bye." "Bye." "In September 19th of 2002, in two suicide terror attacks where 7 civilians were victimized..." "[[Good bye." "Thank you for everything.]]" "I know you are a student here, but we can't tell you her address..." "You don't have to tell me." "Please just check whether or not she went back home." "Hey, wasn't Satonaka the name of that girl this evening?" "Oh, Right!" "What is it?" "That girl..." "Came to give us the notice of withdrawal this evening." "What?" "Voluntary withdrawl." "I told her it's a waste because it's so close to graduation." "I'm sorry for coming so late at night." "My name is Segawa." "Is Shizuru back home?" "Excuse me!" "[That was...]" "[My very first kiss, and I thought it was the beginning of everything.]" "[But...]" "[If only I had taken the first step earlier...]" "[The days I spent with Shizuru were peaceful and relaxing.]" "[I have never even imagined there was an end to those days.]" "Shizuru..." "How much farther until we reach the hospital?" "There's an emergency hospital on the other side of the bridge." "Are you okay?" "This idiot is ridiculously light." "Let me down..." "Oh!" "He regained his conciousness!" "Let me down!" "Can't do that." "We are almost there." "We are too close." "If we get so close, my smell would..." "Huh?" "I stink of medicine." "What's he talking about?" "Must be the fever talking." "I stink of medicine!" "Not even once have you smelled before!" "Always smelled like shampoo, like a girl!" "That's right!" "Pull yourself together, Segawa!" "Pull yourself together!" "We are almost there." "Hold on tight!" "Are you okay?" "Don't give up!" "Hang on!" "Whoa, whoa!" "What are you doing?" "We have to make a toast first!" "Oh, right." "Well let's just..." "Celebrate the fact that this idiot's life is saved!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Cheers!" "Please be quiet." "But I'm so relieved!" "I heard it was really serious!" "Sorry for the trouble." "Thanks." "Right, give me gratitude for rest of your life." "Acting all big." "I'll give you an update for things that happened while you were resting." "Okay." "First of all, we have all found a job after graduation!" "Really?" "!" "Shirahara will become an employee in the UN." "Yuuka is in Ministry of Foreign Affairs." "Sekiguchi is in a movie distribution company, and Saki is in a international brokerage firm." "I see." "Congratulations!" "You guys are amazing." "You are all going overseas when you graduate." "Of course!" "Why do you think we are in English Department for?" "Acting big again." "Yeah." "One more thing..." "About Shizuru..." "We all helped with the search, but..." "We can't even find a trace of her." "I see." "I'm sorry." "Don't be." "But it was a surprise." "The ultimate beginners at romance were secretly living together." "Living together, it's..." "Wasn't it living together?" "Yes." "What's wrong with that?" "That's how love is." "The more you hide it from other people, the more excited you get!" "Right?" "You were getting excited?" "No way!" "Please be quiet!" "Bye bye!" "Bye." "Living together, huh?" "Sorry." "But for some reason I still feel like I haven't gotten over you." "What?" "Well, I guess I never told you about it, so it's no surprise." "I intend to wait for Shizuru's return in that house." "I don't know how long I will end up waiting, but..." "Okay, now I'm over you." "Segawa, can I ask you just one more thing?" "What is it?" "The first time I spoke to you," "Segawa," "Ah!" "Why don't you join us in that table?" "You liked me back then, right?" "How did you know?" "As I thought~" "Really?" "I see." "[And so, each one of them departed towards the place they belong.]" "[As if..." "I was the only one left behind.]" "[I graduated from university, and became a photographer.]" "[[Satonaka Shizuru]]" "Segawa." "Miyuki!" "Sorry to keep you waiting." "Is rose tea okay?" "Yes." "I remember you don't drink coffee." "Thank you." "So, why are you..." "Hold on, I'll explain everything." "Where's Shizuru?" "It was around half a year ago." "I happened to bump into Shizuru in Chinatown." "But she changed a lot since we knew her." "I didn't recognize her at first." "It seems she recognized me right away though." "She had that wide smile." "That smile was really nostalgic." "That's how I finally recognized her." "Anyway, she told me she was staying in the office there, so I asked her, why don't you become my roommate in my apartment?" "Half a year ago?" "Yes." "You should've told me right away." "Shizuru only sent me the letter last month." "There were certain circumstances." "What circumstances?" "It was cold outside, wasn't it?" "I'm I was late." "It doesn't matter." "Anyway, where's Shizuru?" "I'm so sorry, Segawa!" "Huh?" "Actually..." "Shizuru is in LA for work." "What?" "She was really looking forward to meeting you again, but..." "She had an unforseen photo session that she couldn't get out of." "That's why, you can't see Shizuru this time." "I'm so sorry!" "It's not something you should apologize for..." "I see..." "I see." "But it's unavoidable if it's work." "Besides, I can come again anytime." "Compared to the time when I didn't even know where she was..." "I guess there's no hurry." "Use Shizuru's room tonight." "Shizuru instructed me to tell you that." "I'll guide you to her photo exhibition." "Thank you." "Is she doing well?" "Yes she is." "I'm sure you will be surprised when you see her." "Shizuru has changed a lot." "That's what was written in the letter." "She's an adult woman in everyone's eyes." "Really?" "I can't even imagine." "[Sleep well?" "Use this key.]" "[Shizuru's exhibition starts tomorrow, so just relax today.]" "[I'll leave a message in the answering machine if something comes up.]" "[Please leave your message after the tone.]" "[It's Satonaka.]" "[Thank you for your letter of greeting.]" "[Memorial service on 49th day has ended smoothly.] (In Buddhism, it is believed that a person's soul reincarnates on 49th day."

"Segawa, are you back yet?" "Segawa!" "Segawa?" "I'm coming in." "What are you doing in the dark?" "Where did Shizuru go?" "I told you she went to LA for work." "Enough with the act." "There was a phone call  From Shizuru's father." "That Shizuru  Is already dead." "It's not true, right?" "Miyuki!" "Last month..." "That's a lie!" "How can Shizuru die?" "Shizuru was sick." "A very rare disease, not very well known." "She inherited her mother's genes." "That disease existed in her ever since she was born." "When Shizuru matures, that disease will mature together..." "Shizuru lived her life, being careful not to grow up." "But then, Segawa." "Shizuru met you, fell in love, and because she wanted to be loved by you too..." "She died  Because she fell in love?" "In a way." "Then..." "She died because of me?" "No!" "Shizuru chose this for herself." "Even if the illness developed, she wanted to fall in love, become an adult, and live out her life." "She also told me not to let you know about the disease." ""Because Shizuru inside Segawa is not yet dead."" ""Even if it's a lie, I want to continue living inside Segawa."" "Shizuru's letters..." "There are tens of them left." "She planned to keep sending them to you." "Shizuru was writing them on her bed." "She seemed to be having fun." "It seemed..." "Like she was having a lot of fun."
