Original subtitles

I heard Sekiguchi is in the hospital for appendicitis.

I've decided.

I want to move in with you.

Just thinking about how you always listen to your parents.

Who does your life belong to?

Actually, I don't want to get married!

I don't want to get married.

Why did you break up with Mr. Waga?

He wanted to have me, so we broke up.

That just means he loves you.

No matter how you feel,

it's not a good enough reason to possess someone.

Hey.

Nagao.

Where is Mikami?

He has gone out to buy something.

I see.

This is for you.

Thank you.

Sorry for the trouble.

How do you feel?

I feel better.

I will be discharged tomorrow afternoon.

Good to hear that.

Rika wanted to come along...

but something urgent came up.

She promised to celebrate with you after you are discharged.

Really? I'm happy to hear that.

Take a seat.

I heard that you are going to move in with Mikami.

It seems that everything is going well.

Actually, she...

came to visit me the other day.

That woman?

Why?

I think Mikami told her about me.

Mikami left behind his mobile phone at my place the other day.

I returned his phone to him...

and bumped into this woman.

I heard that she is going to marry her fiance next year.

She came to tell me that she and Mikami are just classmates.

What? That's not bad.

However, Mikami didn't think that way.

Mikami didn't know...

that she is getting married.

It was a big blow to him.

It came to my sudden realization...

that I would face that kind of situation frequently...

if I continue dating Mikami.

Therefore, I have made up my mind...

to move to the place where Mikami will come back to.

Though I get angry at his half-heartedness,

but it's impossible to have him all to myself, right?

I don't want to become anyone's possession.

I'm not interested...

in that kind of relationship.

I see.

Nagao.

Are you leaving?

Yes, I'm leaving.

Let's grab a coffee since you are here.

I don't want to.

I don't want to have coffee with people like you.

Why are you angry?

Stop forcing Sekiguchi.

What have I done?

Wait a minute!

Hey!

Hey!

I didn't force her.

You.

Do you know the feeling of falling in love...

with someone who would never love you back?

(Episode 6)

Good morning.

Good morning.

Hot coffee, please.

What are you reading?

Kanchi.

Are you free this coming Sunday?

I don't have any plans for now.

Let's hang out together.

What are we going to do?

A friend who I met in New York has invited me to an art exhibition.

She requested me to bring you along.

Why?

I think it's because you are my boyfriend.

I'm not familiar with that kind of occasion.

I might not be able to cope with the situation.

I have accepted the invitation on your behalf.

- What? - Don't worry about it.

Let's go there and have fun.

Got it.

- Here's your coffee. - Thank you.

Is it really okay for me to go there?

Well...

By the way,

April 19...

is my birthday.

Is it?

Happy Birthday.

Are you asking me to celebrate your birthday?

I don't mean that.

I just want to inform you.

Right.

Why do people take birthdays so seriously?

It's just a day where you grow one year older.

All right.

I will put your luggage in our bedroom.

Thank you.

What's wrong?

From today onward,

this place will become my home.

You are right.

Moving is troublesome.

Just hire a moving company.

I will pay for it.

No need, it's such a waste of money.

Just listen to me.

The problem is there are large appliances like refrigerators.

We don't need two refrigerators.

(From Akana Rika)

I'm here.

What's wrong?

You look decent.

Close your eyes.

Please close your eyes.

What are you doing?

Done.

You look cute!

What is that?

Not bad.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

This way, please.

Rika.

Hi, Ms. Sawamura.

Thank you for coming.

I'm so happy to see you.

So am I.

Are you Kanchi?

Hello, I am Nagao Kanji.

I was expecting a gentleman.

I didn't expect a sexy man!

No, I am not.

Hi, Alvin.

Alvin.

Long time no see.

How are you?

I'm good. And you?

Thank you. I'm good.

- Let me introduce you guys. - Okay.

This is my friend, Rika.

Nice to meet you. I am Rika Akana.

I am Alvin Yang.

Of course, I know you.

I saw your installation at Watarium Museum...

and it was fantastic!

Thank you. It's so nice of you to say that.

- Rika is a talented art director. - Really?

Actually I am not an art director. I'm a planner.

That's right.

- A planner. - Yes.

I'm sorry.

This is Rika's boyfriend, Kanji.

Nice to meet you. I'm Alvin.

Nice to meet you.

- I'm so happy to see you. - Thank you for inviting us.

It's so delicious.

That old lady...

looks like the woman who lent...

the suit to Leonardo DiCaprio in "Titanic".

You mean Kathy Bates?

I have forgotten her name.

Who is she?

The curator of contemporary art exhibitions.

I am not sure either.

This is the second time I met her.

Is it?

I feel as if I was living in a different world.

I feel the same.

I am not good at handling socialites.

I think you are living in the same world as them.

What do you mean?

It's nothing bad.

It's just that I think you are cool.

In what aspect?

You didn't get cold feet when you were at the exhibition.

I didn't know that you could speak English fluently.

You live...

in your own world and you are quite a character.

You don't get held back by anything.

You are fearless...

and you don't care about how others think of you.

And I think that's really cool.

You are totally different from me.

Everyone says that to me.

You are trying to break up with me.

In the beginning,

everyone tells me that I am cool...

and I am interesting.

Slowly,

they start to claim that they are different from me...

and they can't understand me.

Then, they broke up with me.

It's a misunderstanding from the beginning.

No one is willing to check out my true color.

That's why I am lonely.

I'm home.

Welcome back.

Welcome back.

I'm home.

It stinks.

I better take off my clothes.

I can't open it.

I want to take a bath.

Kanchi, do me a favor.

Hey.

Regarding the topic that we talked about earlier...

What is it?

Everyone wants to be like you...

but they can't.

That's why they define you as extraordinary.

Stop talking about that.

I won't leave.

I won't let you feel alone again.

Actually,

I'm curious about your true colors.

If I reveal my true colors...

I bet you would run away.

I won't run away.

Actually,

I'm just a hick.

I am not extraordinarily skillful.

Not only that I don't have a bright future,

I'm also neither good at English nor art.

I'm the most ordinary man among all the ordinary men.

However,

there is something about me that makes me stand out in the crowd.

What is it?

My love for you.

Rika.

Are you okay?

Rika.

Are you not feeling well?

Are you okay?

What's wrong?

That's...

That's really funny.

Why are you laughing?

I'm being serious right now.

That's really funny.

It's one of the top five funniest moments...

in my life.

You are so annoying.

What are you doing?

- Wait. - What's wrong with you?

You are that kind of man.

What?

I like it when you behave like this.

I don't need love.

Let's have the best relationship in the world.

I got it.

I will contact you again.

Bye.

What did your mom say?

She told me to go home at least once.

I have the same thought.

Let's go back together this coming weekend.

I'll pass.

But your dad is not in a good...

I know that as well.

It's stage four cancer.

The cancer cells have been spreading to his entire body.

He can only live for another six months.

The medicine is not working. It will be less than six months.

Since you know the situation well, why do you...

What is the point?

My dad has never loved me.

What is the point of visiting him?

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

It's delicious.

And this.

Okay.

You can start marketing from the circled area.

Got it.

By the way, Kanchi...

Yes.

Save the night time on April 19 for me.

It's your birthday, right?

Yes, it is but...

It's an important day which only comes once a year.

It deserves a celebration.

You said something else before this.

Of course we have to celebrate your birthday.

I don't get it.

I have to leave for a meeting.

Safe journey.

Make sure you reserve that day for me no matter what happens.

I got it. You should leave now.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Mr. Mabuchi said that he would fail those who skip class thrice.

I know he would do so even if he didn't warn us.

Good to hear that.

I plan to skip the class.

Mikami.

Will you be free...

this coming Tuesday night?

I will be free during weekends...

as long as you are not inviting me to funerals.

I haven't paid you back for the treat.

You mean that night.

Don't say that.

It's my pleasure.

Time and venue?

It's a restaurant called Shinsen in Daikanyamacho.

I have made a reservation at 7pm under the name Nagasaki.

Got it.

It's delicious.

I'm happy to hear that.

I have become healthier since you moved in.

That's great to hear.

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

By the way,

I'm going to grab a drink with the other interns on Tuesday night.

You don't have to prepare dinner for me.

Is it?

I might come home late. You can go to bed early.

Got it.

Mikami.

Can I wash the underpants on the chair?

Yes. Thank you.

Okay.

(Thank you for staying with us.)

(Customer's name: Mikami Kenichi)

(Rei Hotel, Shibuya)

What?

That's too much!

I think I am too naive.

No. That's not the issue.

You should feel angry right now.

Somehow, I don't feel angry.

Why?

Dating Mikami means...

I have to put up with his unfaithfulness.

I don't mind as long as he comes back to me in the end.

Are you serious?

The saying "good women have the patience of a saint"...

is invented by men for their own convenience.

I know that...

but it's easier to pretend that I don't know anything.

Satomi.

He will be seeing another girlfriend tonight.

Are you going to keep quiet?

I think they will break up soon and he will come back to me.

- Are you done? - Yes.

- Show it to me. - We have done quite a lot.

- That's true. How about this? - Look at this.

Kanchi.

What do you want for your birthday treat?

What do I want?

I will make anything for you.

You can't cook, right?

I can't cook...

except when I'm interested to cook it.

What are you talking about?

If that's the case...

I refuse to listen.

I have a good idea.

What is it?

I'm not going to tell you.

This is your Japanese Black Wagyu Tenderloin.

Enjoy the food.

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

How is your girlfriend?

She is doing fine...

though the wound is still there.

It's not a metaphor. She got the wound from surgery.

Is it?

How about you?

Are you ready to get married?

Yes.

You cried to me and told me that you don't want to get married.

I was out of my mind.

It's just pre-wedding blues.

Would you sleep with another man if it's just pre-wedding blues?

Don't say that. Nothing happened between us.

Welcome.

How do you like the food?

The food is delicious.

I'm glad to hear that.

Let me introduce you to each other.

This is my fiancé, Mr. Akigawa.

This is my classmate, Mikami.

My name is Akigawa.

Thank you for taking care of Naoko.

No.

I should thank you for your concern.

Please enjoy the food.

This is his restaurant.

The meal is on him.

We will be holding another gathering after the wedding.

Bring along your girlfriend if it's convenient for you.

Did you invite me here just to say this?

I hope that you won't misunderstand.

I don't have any other intention.

I don't mind marrying anyone.

It's fine even if the groom is not you.

Thank you for the treat.

Let's eat.

Welcome home.

You are early.

Don't.

Do you want to have a drink?

Up to you.

We've run out of alcohol.

I'll go get some.

Kanchi.

Give me your house key.

I plan to go back earlier for preparation.

I'm going to the site...

and I'm not coming back to the office.

- Safe journey! - Safe journey!

Why is she so excited?

Thank you for your help.

Thank you.

Tomorrow, there will be a test...

on the symptoms of dilated cardiomyopathy.

As you will be assessed by the universal standards,

please study for the test.

- Okay. - Got it.

See you at room number 2 tomorrow at 1pm.

- Yes. - That's all.

Sir, can I ask you a few questions?

He won't repent until he's confronted with death.

He might be looking for you at the train station...

or looking into the windows by the roadside...

but it's impossible for him to find you at those places.

He could only cry by the roadside.

Sorry to trouble you.

It's all right.

My dad is a fan of yours.

When will you go back?

I think I won't go back anymore.

- Are you serious? - Ms. Satomi.

A man is looking for you.

Let me deal with him.

It has been a while.

What is it?

Can you please tell Satomi to see me?

She is on leave.

I'm surprised that you still have the guts to come here.

There are many teachers and residents in this compound.

You are causing problems for us.

Please don't come again.

It's done.

Nagao, are you leaving?

Yes, I'm going back.

- Are you serious? - Yes.

All right.

Thank you for your hard work.

Thank you for your hard work.

Yes.

Kanchi.

Have you left the office?

I'm about to leave.

I left.

I'm so sorry.

Many issues popped up at the site. I will be late.

I can't go home as I don't have the house key.

I have left it in the mailbox.

Go home and wait for me.

Got it.

Contact me when you are done.

- Okay. - Okay.

(From Sekiguchi Satomi)

Nagao, Happy Birthday!

Wishing you a fruitful day.

(From Mikami Kenichi)

Did Sekiguchi contact you?

She hasn't come home for three days already.

Nagao.

Happy Birthday.

Thank you.

By the way,

I heard that you left home?

What happened between you and Mikami?

Sekiguchi.

Where are you?

I'm at Tokyo Tower.

Sekiguchi.

Do you still remember that three of us...

went to Tokyo Tower during our graduation trip?

Yes.

If only we could turn back time.

We pulled each other's leg on a daily basis.

We fought...

and made peace.

Our friendship has nothing to do...

with romance.

I wish we could go back to the old days.

Before this,

I found a hotel receipt...

in Mikami's pocket.

It was issued when I was admitted to the hospital.

He is so good at hiding.

I'm sure that he has done that numerous times.

It's just that I didn't find out.

Of course I knew that this would happen...

and I actually planned to pretend that nothing had happened.

He told me that he was going out for a drink with his classmates.

When he came home,

Mikami forcefully...

took me.

I think...

he was dumped by his girlfriend.

Even though he fell in love with other women...

and even though he had sex with someone else,

I still feel that...

I'm special to Mikami.

However,

on that night...

I was just...

an outlet for him to vent.

I'm not special at all.

Sekiguchi.

At that moment, I was sure that...

Mikami could do the same thing to anyone.

Sekiguchi.

Isn't it funny?

Stop smiling.

You don't have to force a smile.

Stop holding back your feelings.

He hasn't come home yet?

Where did he go?

(Adapted from ""Tokyo Love Story"" by Fumi Saimon)

Isn't tonight supposed to be reserved for me?

That fellow is gone.

Am I still waiting for Mikami to come back to me?

Why did I ask something so important?

I didn't know that you were so silly!

What am I to you?
