Karen.

Maiku-san!

Where's Miina?

She isn't back yet.

I see.

I guess we can't help it. She met her friend after quite a while.

That's true. I think so too.

Yes.

A vague sense of worry was starting to wrap around me.

Most likely, Maiku-san is feeling the same thing.

Miina-san who had kept her past a secret from us for all this time,

both Maiku-san and I have been careful not to touch that part.

But, now that Miina-san's friend has shown up,

something is about to change.

That's what I started to think of.

There is only supposed to be two, but we decided to stay here as three.

And we finally started to feel that it was all right.

And yet, I cannot shake these worries away.

Kitto meguri awaseta

I'm sure what brought us together

tenshi no hon no kimagure da yo

was just the whim of the angels.

Sanpomichi de fuita sunakaze

A dusty wind blowing along the promenade

kokoro ga hayatteku

makes my heart race.

Setsunasa hagurakasu no ni wa nareteru no ni

I'm used to evading my loneliness,

konna toki dake namida ga tomerarenai no wa

But, I can't stop the tears only at times like this.

naze darou?

Why is it so?

Aimai na kisetsu dakara koso

It's because the season is so ambiguous

kasuka na tezawari kokoro de kanjite

that l feel these faint stirrings in my heart.

Kagirareta toki wo ikiru kara

The time in which we live is finite,

tatanda tsubasa wo ima sugu hirogete

so spread your folded wings right now.

Tatoe niji ga kowaretemo

Even if the rainbow breaks,

sora wa matte iru

the sky will be waiting.

I Want to Run Again

What?

Oh, it's nothing.

I was just wondering what you and your friend talked about.

Various stuff.

Oh, but she was really happy for me when she heard that I found my relatives.

Oh, she was? That's wonderful.

Yeah, it's wonderful.

So you managed to make it onto the inter-high school team.

Yeah. I marked my best time ever at the prefecture finals.

I was like, "I did it!"

Though it was my mother who was the most enthusiastic about it.

I'm glad for you.

I'm sorry, talking about this.

I'm a terrible person.

That's not true.

I know you've been working hard for this your whole life, Yuka.

So, I'm really happy for you.

Thanks.

You have no intention of coming back?

Like I said, I found my relatives.

So don't worry, I'm all right.

Is it better if I kept this a secret from my mother?

If possible...

Maybe I can think of everything as cleared up now.

I was able to live up to my mother's expectations.

And you were able to find your family, Miyafuji.

Yeah, that's right.

I think that's good enough.

Miina-san, it's about the time to switch...

M-Miina-san!

Geez, don't soak so much that you pass out from heat exhaustion.

I have nothing to say against that.

You don't have anything to begin with.

You're gonna hurt my feelings.

Karen, I'm trusting you to take care of Miina.

Yes, I understood.

Hey, Maiku.

What?

It's all right for me to stay here, right?

Miina-san.

I can stay here, right?

What are you talking about? Of course you can.

Of course you can.

Miina-chan ! Karen-chan!

All of us are going to hang out at my place today!

Would you like to join us?

Let's have a blast!

Miina-san, what will you do?

Um, I'm sorry, I have plans today.

Oh, you do?

That's too bad. Onii-chan said he was going to cook for us.

I'm not going.

Me either.

Why not?! It's onii-chan's home cooking!

By plans, you mean your friend?

Why not?! It's onii-chan's home cooking!

That's why.

What?! Why?!

Yeah, sort of.

What do you mean, why? Geez.

Hey, Karen.

Maiku-san!

Miina isn't with you?

No. Miina-san is going to go see her friend, so she left before me.

I see.

Is something the matter?

Ah, No. Miina's friend...

wasn't that girl?

Excuse me!

Yes?

You're Miina-san's friend, right?

Yes, that's right. And how about you?

We're Miina's family.

Family?!

You're kidding!

Even if I do something like this here,

nothing is going to be of use.

But, Karen always looks so worried.

I'm happy that Maiku pretends to look the other way.

But for now, I don't want to see Yuka.

No, I can't say it.

Mizuho Sensei?

Hello.

Why are you here?

I saw you walking towards Mt. Koguma on your way home from school, Miyafuji-san.

It's dangerous for a girl to come to a place like this all alone.

I'm sorry.

I'm not angry about it or anything.

Can I stay with you for a while?

S-Sure.

It feels so nice.

It's been a while since the last time I was here.

U-Um, Mizuho Sensei?

What is it?

Well...

Uh, um... how to put it...

Oh, that's right. You have a husband, right, Sensei?

Yes. He's a wonderful person.

Did things get complicated for you before you got married?

Things got really complicated after we got married.

After you got married?

That's right.

I can say it with a smile now,

But there were times that I felt so sad that it felt like my body was being ripped apart.

What did you do in those times?

I confessed everything.

Confessed?

Yes, I put them into words.

I told him everything that I was feeling.

The sad things, the happy things, everything.

Um, excuse me.

If it's not too much trouble, could you tell us something about Miina-san?

About Miyafuji?

Yes. Something happened to her, right?

She hasn't told you guys?

Miina-san doesn't say anything.

In that case...

I've just got to know. Please.

Stop it, Karen.

Maiku-san.

Stop it.

Why? Aren't you worried about Miina-san?

Just because you're worried, is it okay to ask somebody else to tell you what Miina won't say?

To me, it just seems like you are trying to lessen your own worries.

I don't want to know, not like this.

Especially if it's something that she doesn't want to tell us.

Maiku-san.

I think that's for the best, too.

I'm sorry about that.

No, don't worry about it.

I'm sorry I called you over.

I'm relieved that people like you are together with Miyafuji.

Well, we're family.

Mizuho Sensei, there are times that you know you're making a mistake,

but there's nothing you can do about it, right?

What should you do at times like that?

There is something that you can do about it.

You should have already found the answer.

What do you mean?

Well, I think of it this way.

For example, when you feel depressed, how can you spend your days without grief?

I think that you've already found the answer to that question.

When you realize your mistake,

you should already be able to see how to not make that mistake.

It's just that the "how" part is cloudy because you're hesitating.

The answer is already there.

Then, just to move forward.

Just to move forward!

I'm home.

Miina-san!

K-Karen?

It's Miina-san! It's Miina-san.

I told you to not make us worry about you, didn't I?

I'm sorry.

Don't you have anything else to say?

I do!

Miina-san!

Maiku, Karen. Can you hang out with me for a while after school tomorrow?

Please.

By "hang out with you," you mean in the track & field?

You know about the inter-high school competition, right? This is where they practice.

Inter-high?

Come to think of it, they were saying on the news that it was coming up.

You know that girl over there, right?

She's...

So she was a competitor in the tournament?

Yeah, a long-distance runner.

Her name is Yashiro Yuka. She used to be in my class in junior high.

Were you guys close friends?

I think so. I used to live in her house when I was back in junior high.

You were living together?

Yeah, but I ran away right before I came here.

You ran away?

I left without telling them anything, so that's running away, right?

Why did-

Just like Maiku, I had lived in an orphanage since I was a baby.

When I entered junior high, I got to know Yuka.

And I started to practice with the track team. At first it was to hang out with her.

It's silly for me to say this, but I was pretty fast.

It was a simple reason to start, but as I kept going, it became more and more fun to run.

That was when Yuka's mom talked to me.

Yuka's mom is a famous track athlete, and she said I had potential.

At first, I refused.

I didn't have money like that.

But then, she offered to be my guardian.

She told me that I could live in her house, together with Yuka.

I was so happy.

From that point on, I ran like crazy.

I didn't have that many good memories back in the orphanage,

and I never wanted to go back there.

I entered competitions, I set new records, and I won awards.

Then, I received a recommendation for a certain high school.

I could run without causing anyone trouble if I could get a scholarship.

But...

I got hurt.

I became no good as an athlete.

I couldn't live up to her mother's expectations.

The recommendation fell through, too.

As soon as I became unable to run, I lost everything.

I couldn't stay in Yuka's house anymore.

That's why I ran away from there.

The only thing I could rely on was that photograph.

I... I'm such a horrible person.

Once that recommendation was about to be finalized,

all I could think about was setting new records.

Even Yuka, who lived with me, was my rival.

I never once stopped to wonder why Yuka always called me by my last name.

I could only think about making sure I had a place where I belonged to.

I desperately wanted a place where I belonged to.

Miina-san.

I...

I...

What are you talking about, idiot?

You have a place where you belong to, right?

Your place is our house.

So there's no need for you to force yourself to run.

If you want to run, you can run.

And if you don't want to, then don't.

No matter what you say, Karen and I won't change.

But that's not it. You have something that you need to do right now, right?

There's a reason you came here, right?

Indeed, there is, Miina-san?

Karen.

I...

I'm...

I'm sure that I...

Yuka!

Miyafuji?!

Is your knee all right?

Just for a while... Let me run for just a little bit.

I'm fine with it if you are, Miyafuji.

Thanks.

Yuka, you know, I'm fine.

I really am fine.

I found a place where I belong to.

A place where I can be myself without overexerting myself.

I'm sure I can tell this clearly to your mom as well.

Moreover, I'm sorry about everything.

That's what I wanted to say. I've always wanted to say it.

Miyafuji.

I... I was jealous, too.

I couln't help being jealous that you could run faster than me, Miyafuji.

I'm sorry.

Yeah. Thanks for telling me honestly.

But, I think of you as a friend.

I really do.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Miina-san!

Miina!

A-Are you all right?

Miina!

Miina-san!

Are you all right?

I just tripped.

I'm so glad.

You scared us.

Miina.

Yeah, that's right. This is where I belong to.

Is Maiku still asleep?

He seems to have been working late last night.

Can I leave you to do the chores today?

It's all right. Please help out Yuka-san.

I'm sorry. I'll be back in time to go to work.

Yes. Take care.

I'll be going now!

I'm very glad. The three of us can stay together.

The three of us, here in this house.

Something is slightly different.

That's right!

The difference is that there is a road between the pool and this house.

Does that mean the photograph wasn't taken from this location,

but rather from across the road?

There's no doubt about it. The photograph was taken from this location.

But why would they need to come all the way over here to take a photograph?

Morning.

What's up? Both of them have gone out somewhere?

It can't be... It can't be...

Can it be that this house...

This house is the one where our mother lived in?

Ano hoshi wa onaji matataki de

With the same twinkling, that star

kawarazu ni watashi wo mite

unchangingly watches over me.

Taikutsu na yume wo nageki fuseta

It gently lit up the side of my face

yokogao wo sotto terashiteta

as I smothered my grief with dull dreams.

Asu ni wa chiisa na nimotsu seoi

Tomorrow, I'll become the bird that flies off

kouya wo tobitatsu tori ni naru kara

into the wilds with a small parcel on its back.

Mukai kaze no naka (kao agereba)

If I look up into the wind in my face,

mukau basho wa mada (haruka tookute)

my destination is still far in the distance.

Itsuka tadoritsuku hoshi ni nareru

I can one day become a star that'll reach there.

Matsuge ni nijinda (afuresou na)

Blurred into my eyelashes,

shizuku wo nabikase (omoi nosete)

flinging away the teardrops

kesshite owaranai tabi wo tsuzuke ni yuku yo

as I go forth to continue my never ending journey.

I Want to Tell You I Love You

Next time, more twins!

"What should I do?" I won't say that anymore.

I know that Miina-san is worried, and how Maiku-san feels.

So I, Onodera Karen, will make a confession.

Confess the feelings that I have inside my heart.

Even if it means dissolving the Love Alliance,
