I dreamt the world was bleached white.

When I was an elementary
school student,

I looked at the mountains through the window
for a long time, not listening to the class.

When I was a middle
school student,

I traveled every corner of the map book
with my fingers, not listening to the class.

When I was a high
school student,

I, who became interested in romantic relationships
later than others, wrote a love letter

without any recipient and left
it inside the desk.

When I became a university
student, I came to Tokyo.

Finally, I fell in love under
the April sunshine.

He was a very mysterious man.

He never tried to look me
in my eyes.

However,

he was a very kind man.

I don’t know how much
time has passed.

Without knowing, I stopped dreaming
about the mountains through the window.

Without knowing, I stopped dreaming
about unknown, remote villages.

I even left how to write a
poem inside the desk.

When I opened my eyes, my world
remained completely white.

As if I was drifting in an unwakeable dream,
I was under the lukewarm spring sunshine.

I remained inside April.

Summer Blooms

The time is 6.55am.

Here's the Japan Broadcast traffic information.

Good morning.

OK, here goes.

Traffic jam stretching 4km

on Tohoku Expressway towards the south

starting from Hasuda Service Area

in Saitama prefecture.

Traffic jam stretching 5km

on Joban Expressway towards the south...

It'll be the first trip abroad for me.

Please apply from Otoasobi website!

Japan Broadcast...

It's been a long time since I heard from you.

I found this letter addressed to you

when I was disposing of Kentaro's computer.

I know you must be busy

but please come visit us whenever you like.

The weather is only going to get hotter

do take care of yourself.

I'm sorry.

It's not like you to be late.

I lost track of time.

Sorry I'm late, Shinobu.

No worries. No one comes until lunch anyway.

You remember the one that the gym
guy talked about, don’t you?

- Yes.
- It was so fun.

- Uh? There?
- Yes, yes.

Welcome back.

Okay, I will join you next time.
Ah, hello!

- Are you still procrastinating?
- It’s too big for me to check everything.

Don’t worry. I will do it.

Oh, really? Thanks.

Two tanukis

Coming!

Please take these.

Sorry to keep you waiting. Two tanukis.

Food's here.

Looks good.

- Go on.
- Let's eat.

-Thanks.
-Thank you.

Aren't you eating?

Can you pass the chopsticks?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Udon and Soba Noodle House

Thank you for coming.

Thank you.

It was delicious.

Here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That was a good lunch.

See you.

Bye.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

All right. So two tanukis,

and a chilled soba,

3,200 yen.

Thank you very much.

- See you again.
- Thanks.

- Hey.
- Yes?

I'll be having an exhibition

at the community centre.

I'd love it if you could come.

- An exhibition?
- Yes.

Of the hand towels I've designed.

Thanks for the invitation.

See you.

Summer Hand Towel Joint Exhibition

- The glue's a bit hard.
-Yes.

- Make it a bit softer.
- Got it.

See you tomorrow.

Wait up!

I'll walk you there.

OK.

I'm sorry.

Huh?

We're going to close the eatery.

When?

Next month.

But why?

My dad is getting old

and I don't intend to take over the place.

- What's this?
- Your severance pay.

No, you don't have to...

Slightly more than a month's pay in there.

What are your plans?

I'm going to be helping out

at the commerce association

so I can easily find a job for you

at the shopping district

but I think it's about time you picked

a real career and settled down.

Your teaching credentials are going to waste

if you keep working here.

But I like it here.

That's my point.

You can take some time off starting next week.

Find yourself another job.

Don't make us worry, OK?

Dove Public Bath

I don't like my big hands.

It's the 18th July, Marine Day.

It's getting warmer

and beaches everywhere are opening.

Summer is officially here!

Summer break starts today

for some grade and middle schools.

Isn't that great?

I'm sure there are some listeners

who are on the road as I speak.

Thank you for tuning in

to Marika Honda's station.

...cleaning up for the accident

on Tamazaki Bridge.

Two lanes on the right are blocked.

So what's the cause of summer heat fatigue?

There are three main causes.

First, dehydration and loss of electrolytes.

We performed this next song

at Yoyogi Park a few days ago.

I believe it was released three years ago.

I think it was four?

Maybe it's been four years.

It's a very upbeat and cheerful song.

I hope our listeners would enjoy it

on a sunny day like this.

OK, here's the song from our second album

Farewell Town In the Mountain,

I'm Heading Off With A Book In My Hand.

Try on a few of them.

Like this?

It looks good on you.

I can see you are trying hard.

- I heard Toda’s shop will shut down.
- That’s right.

Will you come to my shop then?

Kunitachi Community Centre

Summer Hand Towel Joint Exhibition

I used a technique called chusen.

The textile is soaked in dye

from both sides using the pattern paper.

The dye is applied on both sides

so the colours are different on each side.

The colour isn't applied from the surface.

The fabric is very breathable

and it's suitable for yukata.

It's a very practical fabric for everyday wear.

Thank you very much.

Have you said hi to Mr Kitayama yet?

Oh, not yet.

- I'll go later.
- OK, don't forget.

For old times' sake.

I don't know what you mean, Miss Ilsa.

Play it, Sam.

Play "As Time Goes By".

Oh, I can't remember it, Miss Ilsa.

I'm a little rusty on it.

I'll hum it for you.

Sing it, Sam.

You must remember this.

A kiss is just a kiss.

A sigh is just a sigh.

The fundamental things apply

As time goes by.

And when two lovers woo

They still say "I love you".

On that...

Sorry... I was watching a movie.

A movie? No work today?

Actually, the eatery's closing next week.

I was given paid leave to find a new job

but I've been lazy.

That eatery didn't look very profitable.

But the timing is perfect.

I need to ask you something.

Are you free tomorrow?

Yeah.

Really? Then I'll come over.

I'll let you know when.

Sure.

- Ms Takimoto!
- What?

I knew it! You're Ms Takimoto.

- What?
- You don't remember me?

It's me, Kaede. Muramatsu Kaede.

From Tachikawa Middle School Class Three?

Right! Muramatsu?

Yeah. Long time no see.

- Good to see you.
- Nice seeing you.

Huh?

You were in the theatre too?

- Yeah.
- Really?

I was seated behind you.

This is such a surprise.

So you like Ingrid Bergman too?

- Who's that?
- What?

I don't watch movies.

They put me to sleep.

I only came by today

to listen to As Time Goes By.

For an assignment in university?

Do I look like I'm attending university?

So what do you do?

I'm a jazz singer.

A jazz singer?

Although, I'm far from being able

to make a living out of it.

You can have this.

I made it myself.

I have loads of it left.

- Let me pay for it.
- No.

Thanks.

May I crash at your place tonight?

- What?
- At your place.

Why?

I have nowhere to go.

Muramatsu.

Are you going to keep that on the whole time?

I can take it off, but...

my boyfriend hit me.

Just for tonight.

OK.

- Thanks for letting me stay.
- Come in.

Your place is pretty quaint.

No TV?

No. I only listen to the radio.

You really are strange.

Where are you teaching right now?

I'm not teaching anymore.

Really? What are you doing then?

Working part-time at a soba

Or worked, I should say?

You are?

Then you're the same as me.

When did you quit teaching?

Three years ago.

Why? How come?

Was it bullying? Sexual harassment?

Helicopter parents?

Were you like this in school?

The Muramatsu I knew

was much quieter and very shy.

Shush. That's my hidden past.

Let me introduce our lovely guest for tonight.

We have a rugged yet debonair gentleman

on our show today.

Actor and TV personality, Hoshi Genki!

Welcome!

- Welcome! for having me.

Thanks for coming.

- Seriously.

- I'm a big fan.e about me?

Every time I work with you, I sense this

manly pheromone from you.

It's the scent of an alpha male.

What do you mean by pheromone?

That sounds kind of kinky.

For example, how you wear your shirts

open to the third button.

You wear a lot of shirts, don't you?

Well, I like clothes with a collar.

I've never seen that dress shirt before

in real life or on TV.

- You're right.
- How many shirts

do you have? 20? 30?

Way more.

I gave about 200 to a student of mine.

Only about 500 left now.

That's outrageous.

That's too many.

So even if you wear a different shirt each day

you won't go through them all in a year.

So you've always been like this?

Since you were growing up?

Well, I liked dress shirts even as a kid.

I've had them custom made when I was young.

You came up with your own designs too?

Yes, and also the shape of the collar.

OK, it's time to say goodbye.

Our guest today is Mr Hoshi Genki.

- Mr Hoshi?

It was your first appearance on our show.

What did you think?

It was really great.

I'm glad we had a lot of time to talk.

- It was very relaxing.

Yeah, I want to come every week.

Thank you.

Our director is listening, you know?

You know, I'm from the countryside too.

- Right. nothing there.

You guys are from Kagawa Prefecture, right?

People in the countryside are pure at heart.

They're not trying

to be different and stand out.

Well, you two are comedians

so that may not be the case for you

but most aren't like that

so they're really pure at heart.

It's good to be pure inside.

What are you doing?

Don't worry. Breakfast is almost ready.

No, wait.

- What is this?
- I wonder what happened.

I'm opening the window.

- Did you turn off the fire?
- I did.

It looked just fine a minute ago.

- What did you use?
- I don't know.

- I followed the instructions.
- No...

Hello.

It's me.

I'll call again

when I can't find a place to stay.

No way. You'll burn my house down one day.

I apologised, didn't I? I'm sorry.

Where are you going? On a date?

I'm seeing an old friend. A female friend.

Really? I read your letters.

That guy who wrote them

is too crazy for my taste.

You read them without my permission?

I'm sorry, just the ones that were open.

I'll come visit again.

You never cease to amaze me how much you eat.

Do you get the craving for sour stuff?

Yeah, I guess so.

How about sweet things?

You know I have a sweet tooth.

Right.

You're starting to show.

Yeah, it's getting bigger and bigger.

I'll be on maternity leave in two months.

Will you be willing to substitute for me?

Part-time.

It's already been three years.

You have to move on eventually.

It's not like that.

You haven't changed the least.

This sure brings back memories.

Do you think those kids

see us as middle-aged women?

I wonder.

Hey, you can't get over him

because you're still living here.

Even I feel awkward here.

No plans to move anytime soon?

Hold on.

Hello?

Help. He's going to kill me.

I'm hiding in the bathroom, but it's bad.

What happened? Slow down and tell me.

He came back.

The boyfriend who beat me up yesterday.

He was supposed to be out working

but he came home early.

Tell me your address.

What is it now...

3 Kokubunji-Nakamachi...

sorry, I don't remember the rest.

It's opposite the reddish apartment.

I have to go, he's coming back.

Wait, give me your unit number!

402.

402.

Hello?

Sorry, I'll call you again.

Wait, what?

Top of the first, the first batter, Matsuoka.

Ended with a grounder, no run.

The second up is a left-handed batter, Inoue.

Thanks. Keep the change.

Reddish apartment...

Open up or I'll call the police!

- What you're doing is criminal.
- What?

You have a girl locked up in there, don't you?

I'm calling the cops.

What the hell are you going on about?

- I'm sorry.
- Sheesh.

- Please wait.
- What now?

I think there's a girl locked up upstairs.

That's the unit

with all the yelling and fighting.

Hell...

Kaede!

Kaede, are you in there?

Kaede?

- Kaede?
- Who the hell are you?

Kaede? Kaede?

Kaede!

Kaede!

Open up, Kaede!

Kaede?

Kaede!

You're safe now.

Go to hell, darn it!

- Apologise to her!
- Shut up!

Apologise!

Get out of here, quick.

I've called the police.

Don't go, please don't!

You think it'll stop raining?

Let's go.

The guy who wrote those letters...

Yeah?

He was my ex-boyfriend.

Oh, they were from an ex?

I didn't figure you

to be the type to pine away for a guy.

He died.

Don't let it bother you.

It's been three years.

Come on.

Of course that's going to bother me.

He left a post

on Facebook an hour before he died.

What do you think it was?

A photo of pasta.

A hipster photo of pasta before dying?

Wouldn't be right to laugh.

Ms Takimoto.

Do you remember our song

for the choir competition?

You were in the first class I taught, so...

You don't remember?

What was it?

- I'm not telling.
- What was it?

Come on.

Tell me!

Are you ready? We should get going.

Ta-da!

You look great.

Right? Shall we go?

Yes. I've been waiting for you.

- OK.
- Come on.

- Close the door behind you.
- OK.

Wait, I meant the window.

Hello.

Hello.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

It's been a while.

Yes, it has.

This is my former student, Kaede.

- Nice to meet you. I'm Kaede.
- Hi.

Your yukatal.

Really?

Don't tell anyone that I'm divorced.

- Why are you laughing?
- Why not?

Because I'm hoping to meet someone new.

Cheers!

Thank you.

Make sure you cook it well.

No one has the right to say that, right?

So I said, "You may be my father"

"but you're not the father of jazz."

And I left home.

Here you go.

There's still a lot more to come.

You're fitting in nicely.

- Come help out too!
- Fine.

It's OK. Let the young folks enjoy themselves.

- Hey there.
- Kuro!

Thanks for bringing those.

Sorry...

Don't you have to help?

Sorry.

I'm tucking in.

Make sure it's cooked.

Can you check?

This seems ready.

Check if it's good.

Let's eat.

Hi.

Sorry.

Your exhibition has ended, right?

It's fine. No worries.

We've known each other for a long time

so it's odd to be asking this now...

but what's your name?

Oh right, I've never told you.

I'm Shiguma Totaro.

- Shiguma Totaro?
- Yes.

Is that your real name?

I get that a lot, but unfortunately it is.

It's written shi

gumabear, then fuji

Everyone called me

"Bear-taro" until high school.

You're Hatsumi, right?

Yes.

How do you know my name?

Oh, my bad.

I always hear them calling you

by your name at the eatery.

Right.

Shinobu can be really loud.

I wonder

which way the fireworks are going to be.

The Tama River is that way, right?

- I think it's this way.
-What? Really?

Yeah.

What?

It's this way.

Ms Takimoto, I've something I want to say.

I'm staying at Shinobu's place tonight.

No, you aren't! We're going home.

It's OK. I'm lonely by myself.

Thank you so much. You be a good girl, OK?

Hey, Bear-taro.

You have to come see me perform live.

- I will.
- Promise.

Leave the stuff to the young folks, Kuro.

And drive us back.

- I'll leave the rest to you.
- OK.

See you.

- All right.
- Bye!

- I got this.
- It's all right.

Sorry you had to help me with the stuff.

It's fine.

It was nice watching the fireworks

even from a distance.

They use me as an errand boy

over there every year.

Do you always go to the riverside?

Yes, when I was a student.

I see.

Are we close to the factory yet?

It's right around the corner.

Let's take a break at that bench over there.

But aren't we reaching soon?

Let me buy you a bottle of juice.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

What kind of person would you say you are?

What kind of person?

I don't know.

What do you do on your off-days?

I listen to music and the radio.

It sounds really boring, doesn't it?

No.

What kind of music do you like?

Do you know a band called Akai-kutsu?

Oh...

the one that's always on at the eatery?

Yes! So you know that band too.

Yes, I'm at the eatery a lot.

I'm Heading Off With A Book In My Hand.

I love that song.

Hold on.

Akai-kutsu's...

I'm Heading Off With A Book In My Hand.

- I'll listen to it later.
- Please do.

So your hobby is listening to the radio?

That's pretty rare these days.

I get depressed if I listen to just music

but listening to the same song

on the radio cheers me up.

I see.

- Right here.
- OK.

Thank you.

It's nothing.

So this is what it's like.

Reeks of fish, doesn't it?

Yes, a little.

This is where we make the glue

and we use seaweed to make it stickier.

- Seaweed?
- Yes.

Want a tour of the place?

This is where we dye our fabric

according to the design.

There's an infinite array of colours

we can make using the 20 to 30 types of dye.

The challenge is finding

the exact shade of colour that you want.

Wow.

- Watch your step.
- OK.

We won't know if we got the right colour

until the fabric is dry.

Upstairs is where we dry our fabric.

May I go in?

Go ahead.

These are the ones I made.

Here.

Let me pay for it.

No.

I'm practically an amateur

when it comes to design

so they're never put out for sale in stores.

But these hand towels are made to be used.

So please use it if you don't mind.

All right then.

I'll put it to good use.

Oh yes.

I like to lie down here at night.

It's beautiful.

I'll walk you home.

No, until here's fine.

But it's really late.

I want to enjoy the breeze for a bit.

All right then, good night.

I had fun.

Thank you.

Hey...

I...

really like the way you look, Hatsumi.

I don't mean that in a weird way.

My boss is always saying

my smiles looked forced.

He said if I kept it up

one day it would be stuck on my face.

Whenever I was over at the eatery

I'd see you and think

"Her smiles would never look forced."

Sorry, I'm being weird.

Take care.

Shiguma, you sure are different.

Good night.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hello.

Is she a new teacher?

She's really pretty.

Ms Takimoto.

You used to be with Tachikawa Middle School?

How did you find it?

Well...

most of the students were bright and lively.

It was a good place to teach.

It must have been a very good school.

If you don't mind

could you tell me why you quit?

- Hey.
- Yeah?

Can we talk?

The principal seemed to like you

but wasn't that a bit unprofessional of you?

I'm sorry.

What are you going to do?

Can you give me some time to think it over?

What's there to think about?

Call me when you're ready.

See you.

Sender: Kazama Touko

Hello, this is Kazama.

This is... Takimoto Hatsumi.

Oh, Hatsumi! How have you been?

I'm fine. Sorry I haven't written back to you.

Don't worry about it.

So how are you doing?

I'm doing well.

How about you and Mr Kazama?

That old man has too much energy for his age.

But I'm turning into a frail old lady.

Oh, I'm sure that's not true.

What?

It's Hatsumi.

Fine...

Hatsumi.

The old man wants to talk to you. Do you mind?

Not at all.

Hold on.

Come on, hurry!

Moonlight and love songs never out of date.

Hearts full of passion, jealousy and hate.

Woman needs man

and man must have his mate.

That no one can deny.

It's still the same old story.

A fight for love and glory.

A case of do or die.

The world will always welcome lovers

as time...

goes by.

goes by.

Kaede was like a whole different person.

She surprised me as well.

That was extraordinary.

You and Kaede are both so full of energy.

I think you're pretty awesome yourself.

I'm not the person you think I am.

Will I see you again?

What?

I mean, the eatery's closing.

I'm scared that you would just disappear

without saying a word.

I won't just disappear.

I went to the eatery for lunch

every day for the past two years

hoping that I could speak to you.

I'm sorry if that was inappropriate.

I appreciate the gesture.

May I...

see you again?

Is this about your ex-boyfriend?

I'm sorry.

I heard about it.

Kaede told you?

I was badgering her.

I wanted to know if you were seeing anyone.

It's not her fault.

Please don't be mad at her.

I'd like to leave now.

Hatsumi?

How's his little sister?

Ayaka got married last year

and moved back to town.

She handles tourism at the town hall.

We couldn't bring ourselves to bury him yet.

I'm home!

Welcome back.

Hatsumi, it's so good to see you again.

It's been so long.

All right, let's eat.

I bought some cake for dessert for later.

Wow, thank you.

Oh, this.

I bought it from Kentaro's favourite bakery.

Ayaka, I hear you got married.

Yes, I did.

- Congratulations.
- Thanks.

She was a grade below me

and we were in the same club.

I may be a grade below him

but it took him eight years to graduate.

- Shut up.
- So he's way older than me.

That's enough of your love story.

She was really pretty back then

but she had one hell of a forceful personality.

All the guys were smitten with her at first

but eventually they all got scared

and backed off.

I was just putting on a brave front.

I was from the countryside

and I was lonely.

He came along just then

and fooled me into marrying him.

Fooled you?

So Mr Kazama, you wrestle, too?

Wrestle?

Wait, Mrs Kazama...

you were a wrestler, weren't you?

What? Did Kentaro say that?

He said that you were one of the finalists

for the Seoul Olympics wrestling team.

Oh yeah, she was.

You believed him? He made it up!

I was too old by the time

Seoul Olympics rolled around.

We were in the brass band.

Oh, I knew something wasn't right!

After all, you're so thin.

Maybe she can make the team now.

Don't be silly!

He had me believing it the whole time!

That boy was full of nonsense.

Another one of his silly little white lies.

- Hello.
- Hello.

My husband's here, so I'll get going.

Oh, is it time already?

I have watermelon in the kitchen.

Bring some back with you.

Come in.

Thanks.

I'll make myself home.

This is Hatsumi, my brother's...

- Nice to meet you.
- Hello.

He's not very social, is he?

No, he's all right.

He's fine.

I looked up to Kentaro

like he was my own brother.

Why are you trying to sound cool?

It's leftovers

but would you like to try some?

This is the best part.

Thank you.

Hatsumi. You're staying tonight, right?

No, I found a place near the station.

Oh, come on. Don't be a stranger.

I cleaned up the room for you to stay.

Where did you make your room reservation?

Yamato-ya, by the station.

Then it's fine. I'll call them to cancel.

- But...
- Come on, stay the night.

I'd love for you to stay the night too.

OK?

Hatsumi, are you out?

Yes. I had a nice bath.

Come and have some watermelon.

Thank you.

This is how he always was.

He was such a naughty boy.

He stuck his head

up a nurse's skirt in pre-school.

And there was the time he got suspended

in high school for smoking.

I lost count of the number of times

his teachers requested to speak to me.

My, he was so fair.

Yes.

People thought he was half-Caucasian

when he was a baby.

They'd ask if he had Russian blood in him

and my husband would say yes,

right in front of me.

If that were true

that'd mean one of us wasn't his parent.

I went through hours of pain

to bring him into this world.

He had the smile of an angel, see?

I knew someone would fall in love

with that smile.

I'm acting like a besotted mum, aren't I?

Mrs Kazama.

I'm sorry.

What's the matter?

Actually...

I broke up with him.

Four months...

before he passed away.

I hadn't been able

to tell anyone until now.

I'm sorry.

I see.

Raise your head, Hatsumi.

There's nothing you need to apologise for.

Please.

You're still young.

So maybe you think

life is all about what you have.

That was what I thought until I got older.

Now...

I think

maybe life is really about what we lose.

Every time you lose something

you learn a little bit more about yourself.

We're...

I'm...

sorry.

Honey, where's my shirt?

That old man. I'll bring it to you right now!

Please let me say one last thing.

Thank you so much

for the time

you've spent on Kentaro.

Dear Hatsumi,

I've written many letters to you

but this will probably be my last.

Someone once said love letters shouldn't be

about what you want to say, but rather

what makes the recipient smile.

I've always kept that in mind

but looking back now

I think maybe I've only been writing about

what I wanted to say.

This is nobody's fault.

It's just the way things are meant to be.

It's most definitely not your fault.

So don't believe what anyone might say.

Please forget me and be happy.

Kazama Kentaro

Dear Kazama Kentaro,

Thank you for all the letters you've written.

You've sent me

countless letters over the years.

I can only recall...

writing back once.

Sorry for not writing back more often.

I had written you a lot of letters

but I never did send them out.

And since I never did

I might as well not have written them.

By the way,

please allow me to say one thing

about your last letter.

It's obvious that

you want me to remember you

even though you wrote "please forget me".

That's what I've always hated about you.

Still, your letters are precious to me

and they always will be.

I'll write to you again.

Thank you.

1st August 2016.

Takimoto Hatsumi.

P.S.

It's finally summer.

Dear Kazama Kentaro

It has been scorching hot,

but it's not all bad.

Kyouden. Kyouden.

We will soon be arriving at Kyouden.

Doors at the back will not open.

Please alight from the front.

The train schedule will be disrupted

due to a safety inspection on the train ahead.

Dear passengers.

This train will be delayed for about 30 minutes

as the train ahead

has to undergo a safety inspection.

We apologise to all passengers

who are in a rush.

This train will depart as soon as it can.

I'm a member of the Kendo club.

In the summer, we'd sweat so much

our uniforms would be drenched.

Welcome.

Once I had a date after practice.

But because I didn't have time to shower

I doused myself with perfume

and went straight for my date.

When I think back on it

I'm sure the combination of my sweat

and the perfume only made me smelled worse.

The thought of that kept me up all night.

I never want to make the same mistake again.

The sandwich set, please.

Anything to drink?

- Iced tea.
- OK.

I think that's the scent of youth.

If her date can't embrace that

then he's not boyfriend material anyway.

That's pretty harsh.

- A sandwich set and an iced tea.
- OK.

The next one is from Godai in Setagaya-ku.

I took a girl that I liked

to a haunted mansion to impress her.

However, it was scarier than I expected.

I ended up screaming more than she did

and made a fool of myself.

I'm so embarrassed.

Well, I have to say

he's an embarrassment to all men.

Hey, hold on. You're scared of

ghost and stuff too, right?

OK, moving on to the next letter.

- Here's our next summer failure
- OK.

From Bear-taro in Kunitachi, Tokyo.

Recently, I professed my feelings

to a girl working at a soba-noodle eatery

but she turned me down.

Ouch.

I would have gotten over it

if that was all that happened.

But I said something I shouldn't have

and hurt her feelings.

I wish I can get the chance

to see her again and apologise.

She's a fan of Akai-kutsu

and a keen listener of this show

so I submitted this entry

in hopes that she would be tuning in.

I'll like to make a song request.
