Beneath this endless sky,

...where are you right now?

Who did you meet today? What did you talk about?

Where did you go?

What was the last time you thought about me?

Who are you in love with?

He was only 17 years old then.

But the reality that he had to constantly deal with...

...was even larger than him.

"We were there."

Translated by yuizaki_libra@livejournal.

It is always so bustling in the fall.

Class swops, new textbooks, new friends.

Hey, did you get to talk to Yano Motoharu?

Not yet! How about you, Mizu-chin?

Me neither.

Hey everyone, have you heard?

When Yano was in his first year,

two out of three girls in his class fell for him.

Unbelievable!

The girls was totally absorbed...

...talking about some guy in my class.

But what I was most concerned about then was...

It's still an 8 no matter how you look at it.

What's up?

Oh, well. This...

You shouldn't think too much about it.

Look.

It's just the first test of the semester.

Sorry.

I thought you were just like me.

Sit down.

What?

I didn't notice his name on the test paper,

...still I knew who he was.

You are Yano-kun?

You're smart, huh?

Well, at least I don't get 8 points.

So you're good at everything and have no dislikes in particular?

Me? That's not true.

No way. You look so carefree.

I guess I hate being too popular with girls.

What did you say?

I don't like...

...girls who are unfaithful.

What?

Look who's talking. Don't you yourself have a lot of girls...

Though I may not look like it, I will only love one person.

There you go again.

Okay then, let's say... Let's say,

...your girlfriend is unfaithful to you. What will you do?

I'll kill her.

Just kidding.

Don't know why...

...I ended up saying those words then.

Hey.

You can tell me your worries.

I don't have any.

Worries are what set the living apart from the dead, right?

I can see your underwear.

You jerk.

Bye-bye, Nana-chan.

It was just that, if I were to just leave him alone,

he looked as if he was about to fall apart.

Motoharu has started his 100th round, yet his speed hasn't changed.

Opposing him is Takeuchi who's speeding up!

Nanami, are you cheering for Yano or Takeuchi?

I'm not really cheering for either of them.

I know! It's Yano!

What? No, no! That's just so childish, what they're doing.

Just look at them competing like that.

Is Yano worthy of that much attention anyway?

Right, Yamamoto-san?

I hate him.

See? See?

Serious girls like her see nothing good in Yano.

Oh yeah?

Well, to be fair, he's smart, good at sports...

...and handsome-

He's got all 3 criteria? No way!

I just don't get what he's thinking sometimes.

He also became all arrogant just because he got a little popular.

Who can believe 2 out of 3 girls like him?

Even if that's true, I definitely belong to the remaining third of the people.

I see. You can do fractions huh?

Take proper records, Ms Chore-Worker. That was my win.

Moto! She's our class representative.

I happened to talk to her once and she got so eager.

I'm eager?

You'll listen to just about anyone telling you their worries?

You just want to look good in front of others, right?

Stop it, Moto!

Don't make empty promises if you can't actually help with anything.

Ouch! Hey you!

You jerk.

I was really worried about you.

You looked hurt, that's why...

I just hate the kind of you!

Everyone, hold on, hold on.

Let's decide on which song to do for the concert.

That's so troublesome! You can do it alone.

Let's go eat gyudon!

Wait, wait.

We have to decide on this together.

You can do a solo performance!

- What? I can't do that. - Bye-bye.

Hey guys, it's our first class event.

Let's do this together.

I'll make the score or something.

Sorry, Nanami! I already have plans. Bye-bye!

Sorry, Nanami!

Seriously... Oh, wait!

Yamamoto-san, you can play the piano, right?

I have cram school.

Ms Chore-Worker, huh?

Takahashi.

Quickly come on in.

You're so pushy.

He was like "we're all in this together."

That coming from this tone-deaf guy.

Shut up.

What, really? Yano-kun's actually not good at something?

He's totally tone-deaf.

- Mr Tone-Deaf! - He's just horrible.

Let's decide this quickly. Ms Class Representative.

Well then, I would like to discuss the song for the concert.

Ah, Takeuchi-kun.

Look.

You made this?

Yeah, since I promised everyone I would.

Promised?

Also, can you pass this to Yano?

Since music seems to be his weak subject.

Oh...

Also, can you tell him I'm sorry about the day? You know...

You're probably the first person who ever said that to him.

I can't tell if he's nice or mean,

...but he draws people to him.

What?

You know, there's always this kid who will have a ball in his hands...

...and everyone around him will become really excited and g.

Once that kid is gone, everyone will be gone too.

That kid is always at the center of everything.

I admire Yano because he's that kid.

See you later.

Now what?

What do you mean, now what?

Such an honest person.

To the extent of foolish.

"Do your best!"

Who?

"Tomorrow Tomorrow."

"And tomorrow..."

"...will bring us..."

"...beautiful dreams and melodies."

"Tomorrow..."

He was completely off just now.

But he tried really hard...

...while looking at Nanami's score. I'm so jealous~.

Okay, okay.

Hey everybody!

Let's practice again from the beginning!

Yamamoto-san?

Anemia again?

Don't touch me!

Class Rep!

Yes!

Please help us take care of her.

All right.

Excuse me.

Hey, you're good friends with Yamamoto-san?

She's been my classmate since grade 9, why?

Just that...

I was just wondering why Yamamoto-san doesn't really hang out with anyone in class.

Is she an only child? But I am too.

She's not an only child. She had an elder sister.

"Had?"

She died last summer.

How come?

Traffic accident.

I see.

Sorry. I just don't know how to react to that.

You don't need to care, really.

She probably doesn't want your sympathy anyway.

Wait, wait!

Thank you.

So you heard about the accident?

Maybe she still hasn't got over it yet.

Well I guess she was behaving normally.

But don't you think that's actually worse?

What?

I haven't seen her cry or break down...

...after that incident.

Maybe she's a strong girl.

Then I would prefer that she shows us her weakness.

I'm her friend too.

Isn't that kinda disappointing?

Were you that close to her, Takeuchi-kun?

Of course. We've always been together ever since we were kids.

Who are you talking about?

Yamamoto-san's sister was the one who died in the accident, right?

She was Motoharu's girlfriend.

Look, look!

What's that?

You found this album?

Yamamoto-san's sister in here!

I wanna see!

Where, where?

This is her!

She's so pretty~.

So her name is Nana.

Bye-bye, Nana-chan.

We can never beat her then...

...since she's dead.

I guess you're right.

Yamamoto Nana.

Yamamoto Nana.

Yamamoto Nana.

Yamamoto...

Class 5.

She's in Class 5.

Sorry...

Can I see it? I haven't seen it either.

Sure.

Thanks.

Here.

She's pretty.

She's much prettier in real life.

Thought you'd say that.

Love at first sight?

Yes. Is it bad?

Did you confess to her then? Like, "go out with me."

Yeah.

But she had a boyfriend then.

Does that mean, you convinced her to leave him?

Yup.

You really loved her, didn't you?

I...

I think I like you.

Oh, I mean...

Forget that. I just thought I would try saying that.

Then, wanna date?

What?

Wait, what? What are you saying so abruptly?

You were the one who started it.

Sure, I started it, but...

Do you like me?

Yeah.

Hold that.

There was a pause just now.

There wasn't.

There was!

There wasn't! Who cares anyway?

I do! Because that's not how...

You really like me?

I don't hate you, so...

Because you don't hate me?

That's not how it's supposed to be.

I'm asking if you are serious about liking me.

Sorry. I don't know.

I said, get out!

Wait!

Thanks for the umbrella.

Oh, this?

He's kinda hot-tempered...

But I love him, so it doesn't matter.

Moto!

Am I an idiot?

Hey, what should I do?

Moto...

...will you make me happy?

Will you make me happy?

It was so worth it to come here, seeing Moto sing like that.

He was so behind everyone that it got so annoying.

Nanami, over here!

Good job, Class Rep!

Good job!

They are our classmates from middle school.

You were the one conducting?

Yes.

Hi. Nice to meet you.

They're from Nishi-kou.

By the way, Yamamoto Yuri was the one playing the piano right?

She looked so gloomy as ever before.

Can't believe she had such a pretty and lively sister.

She didn't even shed a tear during her sister's funeral. What a cold-hearted person.

Well, I think...

...not crying doesn't mean that she wasn't sad.

She was totally emotionless. You guys remember what she said...

...when people came over and shared their condolences?

Yeah, something like "my sister reaped what she sew."

That was horrible.

Excuse me!

I just thought...

...it's not a good thing to talk about someone like that.

You don't know how she truly feels in the first place.

Hey guys, this is not a time to talk about that now.

My bad.

Wow, so serious.

Because I'm here?

It's okay, Yano. Everyone was just having a chat-

Takahashi.

This is not a homeroom class, so don't butt in.

Just shut up.

You idiot!

Nanami!

Who do you think she was trying to cover up for?

Takahashi!

Wait.

I was mistaken.

Huh?

I take back all I said the other day.

I was stupid for saying that.

So you're just one of those girls after all.

Don't think I'm the same as you!

What's with all that "wanna date" nonsense?

I don't get what you're doing!

You think you can do anything because you're so popular? You conceited jerk!

Making fun of other people while you're no more than a kid yourself.

You contradict yourself.

You're not even particularly good-looking.

I can't stand you, you idiot!

You moron, fool, twit! Your mom is a fattie!

Unbelievable vulgarities.

I'm the sort that gets 8 points anyway...

But...

My mom is not a fattie.

My mom is...

...a prostitute.

What...?

And...

...my girlfriend is a damned woman.

She was with her previous boyfriend the day she got into the accident.

It wasn't over with him.

What is this?

I just met him. That was all.

Moto...

Where did you get these bruises?

I beat him up.

What...?

Don't go back to him anymore.

I'll make you happy. I'll protect you.

So, don't ever betray me.

Okay. I promise.

Hey, isn't that Nana-chan?

Nana!

Moto?

Why?

Listen to me.

I don't care. Just go with him!

We must wash all of these...

...just because we broke one beaker?

You're still bothered by that?

Maybe I was being mean to Yano.

No, nope. I wasn't wrong.

He's just as dumb as I thought.

How could he say that about his girlfriend?

It's just unacceptable that he called his mom a prostitute, even as a joke.

When he was in grade 5,

he moved here from Sapporo because of his mom's marriage.

But that was her first marriage.

First marriage?

Yeah. She wasn't married when she gave birth to Moto.

His real dad was married then.

He was told that she gave birth to him only to annoy his dad's wife.

I'm home.

Wow, you're back early.

She's now also separated from her first husband.

Moto seems not so bothered by that though.

He's always so cheerful.

Hey.

I was thinking about planting some English roses over here.

Then we can make a huge arch.

Like this! What do you think?

Take proper care of them this time.

Okay~.

But truth is, he's always stuck in the thought that...

...she doesn't actually love him.

That's probably why he didn't cry when Nana-san died.

Rather than thinking that he's lost her, he felt that he was betrayed by her.

They are somewhat similar. Both Nana-san and his mom.

In the end, I couldn't tell him...

...what I wanted to say, and it was soon the end of the semester.

[Yano Motoharu]

Hello?

Mizu-chin.

Festival?

Do you think everyone in our class will come?

Mom! Do you have a yukata?

So cute~.

Turtle! They have turtle scooping!

Did you say duck? * (kame = turtle, kamo = duck)

Nanami!

So cute~.

It's gross but so cute~.

You scooped all these 6 turtles? Wow~.

That's Takeuchi-kun.

Hey~.

Yo!

What's up?

If you're looking for Moto, he's not here today.

Oh no, I'm not looking for him..

It's her death anniversary.

Nana-san died on this day.

I didn't know about that at all.

I think he's in school.

Probably the rooftop.

- Let's go, Take! - Yeah!

Nanami!

Let's go, Nanami!

Takahashi!

You look good in that yukata.

I just want to be with him.

Is that too much to ask for?

What...

You came to comfort me?

Can I sit?

It's not like I miss her anyway.

She disgusted me.

You may think that to yourself,

but you still can't help loving that person.

I also confessed to this notorious guy and was rejected,

but in the end, I still like him...

Hey, Yano.

The person you really, really loved isn't around anymore.

But here is a person who really, really loves you right now.

Can't you let that plus outweigh the minuses?

Let that plus outweigh the minuses.

So don't think that you're alone.

Why do you...?

Take sent that to me just now.

He's just so nosy.

I was regretting...

...that I hadn't gone to the festival.

What?

Takahashi.

I like you, Takahashi.

Liar!

If you ask me if I like you in a serious way,

I don't think I can answer you yet.

If I'm not being serious, I can just tell you anything.

But I just thought...

...even if I'm not sure...

...you might still accept me.

I do.

"Beloved."

That was the first time I got meaning of that word.

It was the summer when I was 17.

Morning.

Morning.

Morning.

Morning..

What are you doing there? Come on, let's go.

They irritate me somehow.

Get over it.

What?

You just look happy.

Happy? How?

There's a sense of warmth around you.

Warmth?

Yeah, warmth. Like a steamed bun!

Alright! Let's go eat steamed buns!

Wha-!

I didn't know you liked watching movies.

I just like it because it's dark in here.

The next bus is coming.

I'll get on the next one.

You've been saying that for an hour already.

Right. It won't stop. I guess I'll go then.

How about one more kiss?

People are looking.

No one's looking.

Quickly, the bus is stopping.

Run!

It feels so good~.

Stop!

Seriously?

I'm all wet now.

Hey, hey, it's that girl?

She seems nothing special.

He'll get bored of her soon.

You shouldn't trust him.

You're just a replacement for my sister.

A replacement, huh?

These are all real.

Oh, no...

Do you want to try on something?

There you are! I've been looking for you..

Ayaka?

Welcome.

Takeuchi-kun's sister? She's so pretty.

She's the rumored Takahashi?

Take told you?

Isn't she cute?

Of course.

I guess I can give a discount since you're Masafumi's friends.

I think this will suit you. It's the new design.

It's lovely.

And just my size...

I can tell by looking.

Mr Boyfriend, buy it for her.

No big deal.

Takahashi. Right.

Your birthday is still way ahead, right?

Right, right. And I don't need this.

Sorry.

Things like this are important, you know? They can prove your love.

You're just trying to sell it.

I'll give you a big discount.

Give my regards to your brother.

His sister is such a nice person.

She's so mature.

Now I get why Takeuchi-kun doesn't have a girlfriend.

He must have high standards.

Forget about Take when we're together.

The ring was so pretty.

Forget about that too.

Stop it.

Say.

Isn't there something you want?

Something that I want?

Yeah.

Love, I guess?

Love?

My mom will not be home tomorrow. Wanna come?

Huh? Is that what love means to you?

I want you to promise me something.

Promise?

That you will never leave me...

...or betray me.

I won't die.

I won't die before you.

And I won't betray you.

I promise.

Carry all of those over too.

Sure.

I'm home.

Welcome back.

Oh, I saw Motoharu and Takahashi today.

Really?

Does that mean he's got over the past?

I mean, his ex-girlfriend who died in an accident.

Yeah, I hope.

Takahashi must be worried.

Hmm, Takahashi huh?

Ah no, I'm worried about Moto.

Well, it's not something one can come to terms with so easily.

Things may be like this now,

but the two of them might be seeing a ghost that no one can see.

Listen, Takahashi.

The best way to prove that two people are in love with each other...

...is undoubtedly this, right?

This is the easiest and fastest way.

Right?

Yeah...

There's just the two of us here...

So, er...

Just imagine you're in the ocean.

So, let's get you undressed, Nana-chan.

What?

I want to know more about you, Yano.

I want to be by your side, forever.

So...

...I'm okay.

Motoharu? Are you home?

Motoharu?

Hello.

Hello.

You have a guest. A girl.

Another confession?

Take your time.

Thank you.

You already forgot what you did?

What are you doing here?

Now that she's dead, you just forget all about her?

If you don't have any important business, please leave.

That time if you stopped her from going...

What's your intention?

Revenge? Harassment?

The terrible thing that you did was...

Stop it.

Why are you still talking about it now?

Don't come out here.

You are not the only one who's lost someone important, Yamamoto-san.

It was hard for Yano too. It was so hard that...

I know.

He cried in front of me.

You know nothing.

I know way more about him than you do.

It's true I don't know anything.

But I trust him.

I don't know a lot about Yano yet.

I don't know about his past either.

But...

I won't say anything that will hurt him.

I don't understand why you're trying to hurt him.

Do you hate him? Do you hold a grudge against him?

If that's not the case...

Be at ease, Takahashi-san.

Nothing happened between us, really.

Sorry.

Don't worry about it.

You shouldn't blame yourself. The accident was none of Yano's...

Don't ever butt in like this again.

You should leave now.

You're not coming to offer incense anymore. That's cold-hearted, don't you think?

You're wearing her scarf.

It was initially mine.

She just ended up taking everything from me.

She would take it and dirty it, and then return it to me.

If you want it, I can give it to you as a memento.

Yamamoto-san and Yano...

Do you think something happened between the two of them?

Something happened?

Yano's just avoiding Yamamoto-san...

...yet always cares about her.

That's understandable. She's Nana-san sister after all.

Not to mention...

Yamamoto-san said Yano cried in front of her.

He did?

What should I do to come closer to his heart?

I want him to be just mine.

I want to know everything about Yano.

Am I weird?

No.

Everyone feels that way about the person they love.

I'm taking back the guide for Japanese history.

Don't come barging in here like my mom.

You haven't talked to Takahashi since Sunday, right?

She told me you were avoiding her.

She thinks that something happened between me and Yamamoto.

But there was something, right?

I saw you two on that day.

Yamamoto and you were walking back together to her house.

I went to offer incense. Sorry to disappoint you.

You'll regret it.

If you just keep dodging the issue,

someone might come and take Takahashi away.

Who do you mean by "someone?"

What I'm saying is that you should stop running away from the problem.

If you are not honest to yourself at the crucial moments,

you'll lose what's important to you.

Why did he get so irritated about?

Hey, hey, let's go eat crepes.

Yeah, let's go, let's go!

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye!

What? Did something happen?

No.

That's fine.

It's not dirty.

No, it is.

Who cares.

Take?

I just remember I have something to do.

What?

That was my last warning yesterday. Told you you would regret it.

See ya.

Sorry, can you please stop the bus?

Yano.

Stop the bus!

Yano!

Take!

Don't you dare make a move on Takahashi! I'll freaking kill you!

What...?

Do some delivery? That's too abrupt. I can't do it.

Are you planning to ruin my rare day-off?

That's not it.

I'm a little busy now.

Where are you now?

Ah, he hung up.

He's actually pretty smart to figure it out.

I definitely won't let him off.

In love, it's all about outwitting your opponent.

You're enjoying this, aren't you?

Alright, I'll teach you important points to win in love.

One. Choose the right partner.

Two. Be honest.

If it's not Takahashi, it can't be anyone.

Rather, I think it is fate that I would meet someone I like.

Then that means what you lack is honesty, huh?

I can feel that she's different from the previous girl.

Nana-san is one who seeks love.

Nana-chan is one who gives love.

Bye-bye!

Bye-bye!

Takahashi, there's something I want to tell you...

Thank you.

What?

Thanks for taking me here when I was feeling upset about Yano.

No, that's not it...

We never really talked about anything besides him, right?

Well, forget it...

Mizu-chin said this before.

We can't compare with the dead.

So, even though it's frustrating,

I guess I'll just have to accept the past.

You're strong, Takahashi.

You think so?

Sometimes it all feels so futile.

It's as if no matter what I do, it won't ever reach him.

I'm always here to support you.

Good job, my brother.

It's not what you think.

This is sneaky.

Yano!

I like you, idiot!

It's for your birthday.

Though it's still a little early.

Thanks to you, I'm barely scraping by for this month...

...since I have to pay back Ayaka.

I'll have to pay her in installments.

Right now, I...

I won't let you go.

Because I promised...

...that I wouldn't leave you.

Give me half of your pain.

What?

Give me half of it.

So cute~.

So cute~.

Is it true he invited you to go somewhere on your birthday?

Oh, yeah. He texted me.

Let me see, let me see!

"Sep 27, let's go somewhere, just the two of us."

So that means...?

Countdown!

Congrats, Nanami!

Stop it!

A 5000 yen bargain. Just have to pay me in cash. Deal?

That's too expensive!

They are pretty dirty, so 2000 yen!

You brat! I can't pay my installments with that!

3500 yen.

3000.

I'll buy them.

No, thanks.

I said I'll buy them.

No need! I don't want your help.

Aren't you in a bind?

I said no need.

Don't... Don't pull!

They'll stretch.

They won't!

I said don't pull them!

Hey, hey Nanami! How about this?

No, these are too gaudy.

It's better to get a mature look.

Nanami! Look what I found! Tada~.

See-through lingerie!

There's no way I'll wear this!

So good!

You must be starving right? Drinking just fruit juice.

Shut up.

I'm digging in.

Yum~!

Hey, what are you doing?

He's so late.

Yamamoto-san, you've arrived at the hospital.

Your daughter's here too.

We'll begin the treatment soon. It's gonna be all right.

Have you called Tagawa-sensei?

I did.

Please wait here.

Why?

Why do you have to go?

I know, but I can't leave her alone.

Why did she call you?

Why today?

There's no "when" with illness.

I'll call you again later. Just go home for now.

I won't go home.

I'll keep waiting.

What?

I'll keep waiting here until you come.

Takahashi, don't be like that...

It's gonna be long until the result of her check-up is out-

Hello? Takahashi?

Don't go!

Let's go home.

He asked you to come?

Then I'll keep doing this.

Thank yo...

Takahashi!

Sorry, she just regained consciousness...

What is that?

You liar.

Huh?

You said not to betray you, but you were the one who betrayed me.

I betrayed you?

When did I ever betray you?

To betray is to trample on someone's heart, and to break into pieces.

...and then to forsake that person!

When did I ever abandon you?

Hey.

I can't do this...

You still can't forget Nana-san, can you?

Takahashi!

You don't think you did anything wrong, do you?

You think that you didn't have any choice...

...that you couldn't leave Yamamoto alone.

But it doesn't matter what is right or wrong.

What's important is to never hurt Takahashi, right?

Is this to get revenge on my sister?

Is this to atone for pushing her away so cruelly?

Or...

Where should I put this?

Over there?

Hey, where should I put this?

Thanks, Nanami!

Thanks!

- Let's spread it out! - Yeah.

I heard it didn't work out between them.

No way! They broke up?

It's our chance.

When?

What are you gonna do?

It's simple another rejection for me. I'm totally fine.

Hmm?

Now that we've broken up, I feel even much better than before.

So she's just another Nana-san?

I guess you're really no good after all.

What?

Things can't be steady with her if you don't put your feelings in place.

I'll settle everything soon.

During tonight's festival, I'll confess to Takahashi.

Do you report everything you do to me?

Just to make sure no matter what happens, we are still friends.

I don't care. Do whatever you want.

Evading it again, aren't you?

Moto, what is the thing...

...that you definitely don't want to lose?

For me, it's Takahashi's smile.

This is really the final warning.

Sorry!

Ah, sorry..

Don't try so hard.

Told you you can count on me for anything, right?

No, I'm fine.

Thanks.

Why don't you quickly steal her away?

I want the person I love to be happy.

That's all.

Can you make Moto happy?

If you can, I'll have no objection.

So cold~.

This is awful.

Hey.

How do you put your feelings in place?

What should one do...

...to forget all about someone who's dead?

I don't know.

We love you, Daiichi High School!!

Thank you for waiting.

Thank you.

Here you go.

Here's our program sheet.

Here's our program sheet.

Here's our program sheet.

I miss wearing that happi* coat. (*workman's coat)

Ayaka-san.

Hey, do you still have that confession time during tonight's festival?

Oh, we do.

Someone confessed to me once, and we dated for a while.

It was over pretty soon though.

By the way, I heard you broke up with Motoharu?

Ah.. yes.

Say, do you know how to get over a past love?

No?

Find a new love, and immerse yourself in it.

Where's Takahashi?

No idea.

Thanks.

If that new love is real, the previous love will become the past.

You find a new love not because you want to forget.

But you can forget because of that new love.

It's easier said than done though.

Nanami!

Someone's looking for me? Who?

Yano's looking for you!

Now that you mention it, Takeuchi-kun was looking for you too, Nanami.

What? Does that mean...

By any chance...

Confession time!

Nanami! Who will you agree to go out with?

So, it's after 6 years that we have a first year student as our Miss Shioichi.

Who would you like to share this moment with?

I'll wait until confession time.

Do you want to confess to someone?

Do you want to be confessed to?

Let's begin our night festival!

Let's gather in the sports complex!€.

"This year's Shioichi Festival..."

"...is no longer open to the public."

"Thank you so much for coming."

"The night festival will begin in a few moments."

"All students, please proceed to the main schoolyard."

We may not be able to forget the past,

but we can let it become memories.

We both should let it go.

You know, I...

Actually, I...

Sorry.

I can't do anything for you anymore.

I loved you.

Even way before Nana fell in love with you.

Confess! Confess! Confess!

I've always had a crush on you.

Please go out with me!

I love you!

Takahashi!

Sorry!

Take!

I'm going to find her first.

Don't mess with me!

Unlike you,

I don't care if we are not friends anymore.

Let go! You don't deserve to date Takahashi!

Thanks to you, I realized it.

What I definitely don't want to lose!

I also realized something too.

That rather than you, I can make Takahashi happy.

I won't let you go!

Ouch!

Don't fake it! Just sleep there!

It seriously hurts!

Take!!

You're inside right, Takahashi?

Why are you avoiding me?

I don't want to see you like that anymore.

If it were me,

I won't every make you cry.

Takeuchi-kun...

...is always the one who comes find me.

But I don't ever seem to be able to find Yano.

Just now when I was pretending to run away, I was actually looking for Yano too.

But...

...I

Sounds so stupid.

That's the fault of the person who's searching.

What?

You didn't even search for him that hard.

And you said you couldn't find him?

The person who's fixated on Nana-san...

...is you, not him.

Confession time is gonna end soon.

Takeuchi-kun!

Moto is lying on the ground behind the gym.

What?

I thought you were crying.

Why would I cry?

You're annoying. Seriously annoying.

I don't want to break up.

It's not like I wanted to break up either.

It's just that I hate lies.

Tell me.

What happened between you and Yamamoto-san?

It's okay. I'll take whatever answer you give me.

Then, three choices.

One. I confessed to her and got rejected.

Two. I was her stalker.

Three.

We slept together.

They are all weird choices.

Especially the last one. That's terrible.

See, you're crying again.

I don't want to make you cry.

But I can't redo what was already done in the past.

Why did you sleep with her?

Because I resented Nana.

She betrayed me, abandoned me...

...and left me forever as she damn well pleased.

I hated and hated her so much.

But I also really regretted it.

That time,

why did I chase her away?

Why...

...why didn't I grasp her hands tightly?

That's why, when Yamamoto's hand touched mine...

Sorry...

I'm sure she loved you.

Nana-san didn't abandon you.

She didn't resent you either.

She must really regret it to have left you behind.

I'm sure, even now...

...she's looking over you from heaven.

Your feelings definitely reached her.

So tell her.

What...?

Tell her...

...all your thoughts right now.

I couldn't make you happy. Sorry about that.

I'm sorry.

Good-bye.

Don't cry.

It's fine.

If it's for you, I don't mind.

I can cry a hundred, thousand times.

I'll make you happy.

I'll bring you happiness, Yano.

Let's build a future that's way better than then past.

It's gonna be winter break soon.

But before that, there's something I want everyone to finish.

This is the form for your university choices.

Please discuss your plans with your parents before handing them in.

What's that? Do we have to write down which university we want to enter or something?

Hey, hey. Have you decided on which school?

Say, Nanami, what do you plan to do?

No, I have no idea yet.

You have until the closing ceremony to hand it in.

That's impossible.

[Yano Yoko] [A guide to your second medical check-up]

Motoharu! Come help me out a little.

So have you decided on what to do?

These go into the box right?

Let me guess what you're thinking about.

Who in the world gets a divorce when their son is taking an exam?

Why can't she wait another year? She never plans anything.

She's seriously never planned anything.

I told you before that I gave birth to you on a whim, right?

I didn't plan to get pregnant, but I thought I could use that...

...to pressure your father to break up with Michiko.

But I failed.

It didn't go according to my plan.

Nothing I ever did went well.

But you know,

There's something I did succeed in.

Motoharu.

I'm glad I gave birth to you.

Thank god I was only a silly girl then.

Sorry.

I'll be fine on my own.

Tokyo?

Yeah, she's getting a divorce...

...and working at an acquaintance's interior shop.

Does that mean you're going to Tokyo too?

She said I could choose to go or not go.

You can choose?

Don't tell me you are...

She's always doing things as she pleases.

When she gave birth to me, when she got married.

And now, when she's getting a divorce.

My mom is my mom.

I'll decide my own life.

This is so heavy.

Mizu-chin.

Taka-chin's the one holding the heavy side.

Oh, Takeuchi-kun.

You haven't heard from Moto, right?

Hmm?

Yes~.

Ah... I'm so sorry for coming this late in the evening.

Sorry, my house is quite messy.

Oh, not at all...

I asked him to help me buy some stuff.

He should be home soon.

Want some sweet potatoes? I made some myself.

Yes, I'd love some.

[To Motoharu] [Taking out the trash:]

Oh, that.

He probably doesn't know how to handle housework, so I wrote him that.

He's back.

I'm back.

Welcome home.

Sorry, I didn't notice it sooner.

It's fine.

I've been completely blinded by happiness.

Always complaining and getting upset about petty things.

Now I know those things are actually a luxury.

They won't happen when we are apart.

Takahashi...

I love you.

I really love you.

That's why, I want you to do what you really want to do.

If it's necessary, you should go with your mom.

It's snowing.

If I'm granted a wish,

it would be to realize Yano's wish.

Yano's wish is my wish.

My wish also becomes Yano's wish.

So even if my choice is wrong,

even if it leads to a unknown future,

I will definitely not regret anything.

I'll try to get into a university in Tokyo.

What?

You're aiming for Sophia?* (*Sophia University)

It's impossible with your current results.

Who do you think got that 8 points?

I know.

But I'm not going to Tokyo for university because of you, Yano.

I'm going for my own sake.

My future path just needs to cross yours.

That's what I want to strive for.

I still have one year.

I'll definitely pass the exam, and go to Tokyo where you are.

Takahashi's a strong girl.

You spilled the beans to her about me, didn't you?

You didn't intend to hide it from her anyway.

It's just that you knew what would happen when you told her.

My mom only has me, so Takahashi will definitely hold herself back.

You knew from the start how she would react, huh?

That's how she is.

I won't make a move on her while you're away, so be at ease.

Of course I am!

But don't slack off when you're in Tokyo.

The moment Takahashi's out of your sight,

I might even kidnap her right away.

Yeah.

The real competition begins after you depart for Tokyo.

Ouch!

What the heck?

What the heck?

Cut it out!

Time...

...always gets ahead of our emotions.

The moment we have to say goodbye finally came.

I'll quickly become an adult...

...so that I will be able to protect everyone.

My mom, friends...

...and you.

Properly and strongly this time.

I'm going.

Yano!

Takahashi...

Takahashi!

Don't ever feel alone.

No matter what happens,

you are not alone.

I've been living just so I could meet you, Takahashi.

It wasn't a plus canceling out the minuses.

It wasn't "canceling out."

The plus was greater than the minuses.

Yano...

Yano!

Yano!

Please God, please protect him.

No matter what happens,

please don't let him lose heart, don't let him be crushed.

No matter how many times he may cry or collapse,

please give him the strength to stand again.

Please let the people whom he meet be warm people.

Please protect him.

That was my prayer.

But the reality that he had to constantly face with...

...was even larger than him.

I'm turning 22 this year.

Nanami.

Hey.

How was the interview?

It sucked.

Even now,

I still keep praying for his happiness.

A message? From Takeuchi-kun?

Why him?

Why are you grinning like that?

It's not what you think.

Because, that was...

...the last time I saw Yano.

Translated by yuizaki_libra@livejournal

6 years after the day at the platform.

Sorry.

Aki-chan.

Here you go.

Sorry, I just fell asleep.

I believe I can make you happy.

Yano vanished to the other side of the track.

There's something I've been hiding from you.

Three years ago during your birthday,

...I met him. Three years ago during your birthday,

What happened?

Send it to me.

What? For your Takahashi again?

Yeah.

Every night, I would close my eyes and dream that I go over to your place.

[Stupid Yano! You forgot to call me yesterday too.]

The truth is, I lost all my confidence... [Stupid Yano! You forgot to call me yesterday too.]

The truth is, I lost all my confidence...

...soon after I came here.

I won't let you go!

Stop being so clingy!

Help me take care of Takahashi.

I finally found you.

Everyone thinks you are in Tokyo.

It was him!

Why won't you see him?

Isn't this what called fate?

Yano!
