"She said you helped her out when my sister was in some trouble." "I just gave her some money." "I didn't go to see her or anything." " But..." " They're strangers to us now." "Hoshino." "Not getting any questions?" "Let's go." "I'm late." "I still wasn't getting any letters." "Miwa-chan?" "What happened?" "did you come to see Haru?" "actually..." "Huh?" "Me?" "it's a little cluttered right now..." "Go ahead." "I'll turn the air conditioner on." "I can't see Haru-san." "I don't know what kind of face I should wear if I see him. you've been worried about not being able to come back?" "Haru is too incredible." "everything ground to a halt." "But Haru is always moving forward. that alone is incredible." "through his question box. even his mother." "Haru is the most understood." "But I... sit down." "too." "There are?"

"I'm sure Haru is waiting for you." "he's definitely waiting." "Do NOT upload onto streaming sites or redistribute without permission." "everyone is just staring at me from a distance." "The only time they'll have anything to do with me is..." "I'm home." "Where were you?" "Miwa-chan?" "There's something I want to talk about." "Those..." "I never really understood." "I wondered how I would live with it. and I couldn't imagine having a future." "But I... even if I get hurt." "I..." "I want to continue living as a girl. so I should just give up." " But I won't give up anymore." " Miwa-chan. and I will marry and love that person." "I want to experience that happiness." "You finally..." "You finally understand." "All I wanted was for you to understand how I felt." "We'd better go get that surgery soon." " I'll get in touch with the doctor." " About that." "I still haven't decided." "I haven't decided if I feel like I need surgery." " That's no good!" "You have to be perfect." " But... won't people hate you?" "Mama?" "you're only insecure about that." " What are you saying..." " I have to be perfect!" " Or you'll be insecure." "Don't touch me!" " Miwa-chan." "Wait!" "didn't you?" " Huh?" "What are you talking about?" "We don't know what you're talking about." "wait!"

"IS is... such a simple yet troublesome thing. why did I confess in the first place?" "jeez!" "It's okay if you cry." " Or I could hit you again." " Knock it off!" "then twice!" " Stop it... four times!" "what're you doing?" "!" "A fight?" "!" "the police might have had to get involved." "We've gotten some complaints from parents too." "They think it's a problem for female students to be sharing a bathroom with someone who attended middle school as a boy." "Principal." "It may be time to come to a conclusion." "Haru!" "Miwa-chan." "What happened to your hair?" "I cut it." "You cut it?" "Did something happen?" "I talked to Mama." "I told her I'm not having the surgery yet." " Really?" " Yeah." "But... why?" "Haru." "That it's okay not to lie." "I'm fine being the way I am." "I realized that. nobody else will accept me either." "I can't become happy." "Is it weird?" "it's cool." "Really cool." "I'm not gonna give up either." "Welcome back." "I've been waiting." " Let's go!" " Yeah." "man..." "Haru." "Shut up!" "What're you up to?" "I'm making a new question box." "Um..." "We want to make it so it'll hold up." "Gimme that!" "Incredible! so I've always been helping them out." " You have four brothers?" " So that's why." "What're you implying?" "Um!" "We'd like to help too." " Right?" " Yeah." "you three just stood around and pretended not to see." "But Haru is so cool!" "It was really awesome how you stood up to those guys." "you haven't changed." "Thanks." "can we paint with this?" " Ah... yeah." " What color?" " We were thinking it'd be like this..." " Cute!" " Don't break anything!" " It's fine!" "Let's start with pink!" "It's kind of pitiable." "someone'll break it again..." "You're the most insensitive one around." "Um?" "Hoshino isn't pitiable at all." "Even if I do think Hoshino is kind of stupid." "Nishiki-sensei?" "Miwako-san!" "right?" "you cut your hair!" "It's super cute!" "Short hair looks good on you." "Why are you here?" "Did Haru tell you I started going to school again?" "that's not it." "The thing is..." "I've been waiting." "Every day?" "Is that heavy?" "Is it too heavy?" "Thanks." "You're thanking me because right?" "Here." "Recently we haven't been able to see the stars together." "[The tickets are for the planetarium.]" "So let's go together." "How shameless of me!" "I don't think it's bad of you." " It's just..." " Really?" "really?" "!" "All right!" "Saitou Reon's long-awaited first date!" "A letter." "It had just started raining." "They might still be close by." "Just a glimpse would be fine." "I want to know what kind of person they are." "It can't be." "Ibuki-san..." "I'm sorry for not writing back for so long." "Hoshino-san." "I'm always watching you." "Watching the way you live so straightforwardly." "I was glad to the point where it hurt." "I came out because I wanted everyone at school to understand IS." "But the person I wanted most of all to understand... wasn't anyone else." "It was Ibuki-san." "But..." "Today sure was fun." "It was like a dream." "it's the truth." "It really would be better if we were going out." "Huh?" "You're not denying it." "Which means..." "There's something I need to tell you." "Yes?" "I..." "I'm..." "IS." "Excuse me?" "like Haru." "Er... you're..." "IS?" "I haven't told anyone else but Haru up until now." "I decided I wanted to tell you." "You're such a good person." "Thank you for everything." "It was fun." "Haru-kun!" "We heard." "You should have told us right away." "We won't run and hide." "we're very interested!" "here!" "[Questions we want to ask Haru-kun!" "About IS]" "We thought up some questions we wanted to ask you." "But please don't misunderstand." " We aren't gossips." " That's right." "Curiosity is one of the secrets to beauty and youth." "That's right. you!" "Huh?" "Mama?" "[Divorce registration]" "[Aihara Naoko]" "How... thank you very much for your letters." "They have made me very happy." "I have been supported by your letters." "But I think it would be best to stop." "Still at it?" "Some people never learn." "it would cause problems for you." "I'm fine." "I will continue to look forward." "Your kind feelings have brought me happiness." "You are a very important friend to me." "Friend." "Papa." "I have no idea where Mama is." "I can't reach her cell phone." "Please come home as quick as you can." "Mama." "I got your letter." "But you misunderstand." "I'm not kind at all." "I'm vile." "too." "You didn't ask me what it was." " Cute!" "Is this you?" " Give that back!" "Keeping secrets can be tough." "I had an older sister." "Then that picture was..." "I..." "I threw her away." "What do you mean?" "My sister was handicapped." "I always felt like everyone was staring at me." "I couldn't stand it." "I thought my sister was embarrassing." "She was lucky she was saved." "I never looked at my sister's face again." "I was the embarrassing one. so I let go of someone important to me." "I did the same thing to you." "We're not dating." "We're friends. so all I could do was write letters." "I couldn't even sign my name." "I didn't want to cause a disturbance." "I've let go of someone important." "I think that's fine." "you're really honest." "Honest?" "Toward yourself." "the parts of yourself you hate." "That's... you can never be strong." "sorry!" "I said something conceited." "It's fine." "I really was very happy." "That you said I was your friend." " That was..." " I have a request." "Would you continue to be my friend?" "Please be my friend." "Please." "Is that how I really feel?" "Do I just want to be friends with Ibuki-san?" "Is that how I really feel?" "I just looked forward and kept walking." "Forward..." "But I didn't know." "We're all in agreement." "We need to discuss how to deal with Hoshino Haru." "Let's begin."
