She often told me lies.

[Shizuru- Satonaka]

I think you dropped this.

- Thank you! - You're welcome.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Dear Shizuru,

thanks for your letter.

Next month, I'm coming to New York to see you.

It's been two years since we last met.

When I heard your photo exhibition would open in New York,

I was really surprised.

I can't wait to see it.

Excuse me.

Where is this point?

It's about two blocks this way. And then you make a left.

I still think about us a lot.

In the three years we spent together,

I wonder how many funny lies you told me.

Hey, you should be careful.

About what?

Even if you pretend to read,

- everyone can still see everything you're thinking. - What?

One out of every five people have ESP.

It's true! I confirmed it!

- How? - Easy.

If I sense someone has it,

I look at them and think,

"There's a spider on your shoulder!"

If they suddenly check their shoulder,

then they definitely have ESP.

You should've seen when I did it in a crowd!

By the way, out of everyone in this school...

I'm sure Miyuki has it.

Miyuki?

If you think I'm lying, let's check.

- Sorry I'm late. - 'A' set lunch again?

Only biscuits again?

Want some?

Going to afternoon class?

American literature? For sure.

- Hey, you're a Virgo, right Miyuki? - Yup.

Virgos will be lucky today, and their lucky color is dark blue!

Spider...

- What? - It's nothing!

- Hey! - What is it?

Never mind.

After these two years,

the first thing I want to say is,

that the forest is still there.

As we ate donut biscuits,

we chased unknown birds amongst the trees

and took pictures there.

The forest where we met...

is still there.

[HEAVENLY FOREST]

[HEAVENLY FOREST]

[Meikei University Entrance Ceremony]

As new members of Meikei University,

this year, what shall we learn?

And thinking of the answer to that question...

I'd like for you all to consider carefully...

Six years ago, I didn't attend my university entrance ceremony.

[No Trespassing]

Excuse me...

There's a signal button at the crosswalk up the road.

Probably better to cross there.

Drivers have to stop for students up there.

So there's no way they'll stop here.

Even though it's a crosswalk?

Well...

- Are you a senior? - What?

Today's my first day at that university.

I'm a freshman, too.

On test day, I also tried to cross here, but gave up.

So, we're both late for the entrance ceremony!

Actually, I wasn't planning to go to it.

Why not?

Well, I don't really like crowds...

Anyway, you should try over there.

Nice meeting you.

Don't worry, I'm just checking.

I want to see if there's anyone nice enough to stop.

Putin.

Once Putin entered office, President Clinton,

who had a strong relationship

with Yeltsin...

Regardless of how personal it is...

However...

Clinton was facing a presidential election next year...

He had only a few months left in his term.

Even if it is the Gore administration that will be born next year.

As for U.S. policy...

Actually, that lecture was...

Hey!

[Women's restroom, 1st floor, 3rd floor]

It's itchy...

- Man, I'm beat. - I'm sleepy.

Something stinks!

- Must have been you. - Not me!

Not that kind of stench.

Smells kind of like medicine.

Must be from the factory nearby.

It'll stink more in the summer.

It smells?

Do you have something that smells less?

I thought it was odorless.

- There's no smell. - There is!

You've been using it since you were a kid. Are you sure it's not just your imagination?

This smell has bothered me since I was a kid, I can't help it

Do you think they're making poison?

What? That's impossible!

That's why I've always kept a distance from people.

Is this seat taken?

No...

Why'd you take my photo at the crossing?

You knew?

Of course. Who wouldn't notice?

No special reason.

What do you mean by that?

Just, no reason.

What's your major?

English Language.

I'm majoring in French. My name is Shizuru Satonaka.

I'm Makoto Segawa.

Nasal inflammation.

My sense of smell is 1/100th of other people's.

Oh, I see!

Did you make any friends?

Well, not really...

Me, neither. It's harder to make friends than when we were kids.

That's all you're having for lunch?

Yeah. Want some?

No.

That's too bad. These donut biscuits are yummy.

They're my staple diet.

- Biscuits? - Yup!

They smell like flour and have a hole in the middle.

Well then, why don't we be friends?

- Huh? - Bad idea?

It's the way you asked...

I guess men and women really can't be friends.

- Why did you just glance at me? - What?

You don't think of me as a woman, do you?

I didn't look at you.

By the way...

What?

Were you able to cross that road?

No.

It seems there aren't many nice people after all.

- Too bad. - But,

I'll show you that I can do it before I graduate!

It's so pointless. A crosswalk where nobody can cross.

It's as useless as a soccer referee at a baseball game.

- I can cross it. Fairly easily. - What?

I know how.

How?

Amazing!

All-you-can-cross!

Hey...

Amazing!

Anyway...

I'm going to go.

What?

See you.

- Hey! - What?

It says "No Trespassing."

Yeah, I know. But...

What are you going to do in there?

Take photos. It's my hobby.

Oh, really?

What're you doing?

There's still lots of time before class.

Yeah, but...

Incoming!

Hey, look!

Hey, wait!

There!

- That way? - I could hear it singing.

Really?

- Where? - Probably over there!

So cute.

You think it'll eat them?

You will, it's the yummiest snack in the world.

- A little more to the right. - Right?

Okay.

Hey.

- What? - Have you ever kissed someone before?

Well, have you?

- Yes. - Really? What was it like?

What do you mean?

Was it sweet?

Well...

Did you melt?

Yeah, kinda.

You actually haven't, have you?

Of course, I have! Lots!

Okay, I'm done.

Okay.

Was I heavy?

No. I was actually shocked because you're surprisingly light.

You really only eat those biscuits?

It has enough nutrition.

- What I lack are growth hormones. - What?

You've got crumbs in your hair.

- They're yummy, right? - Yeah.

Pretty good.

One's enough.

Okay, one more.

Makoto.

- Why don't you come join us over there? - What?

Eating alone is a bore.

We're all in the same class, after all.

Thanks.

Sure.

It's so small!

Hey, he came.

- Hello. - Hello.

- Sit down. - Go ahead.

Are you okay?

- You know, I'm surprised you can even talk. - What?

How many months has it been since school started?

I've never seen you speak a word.

Some people are like that.

Are you that type?

I don't have anything against talking.

Which is it?

I've just been a little shy until now.

You were shy for a long time!

Let's toast to our new friend.

Cheers!

If you don't do it as well, it's pointless!

Here!

Cheers!

Here.

Thank you.

Here.

That's dangerous.

If you think about it, everybody definitely has some ESP.

Even without words, you can tell what's in someone's heart.

He likes her.

And he likes her, too.

I'll give you this.

And her? She seems to like him.

Shizuru can definitely read people's minds.

She must have noticed...

From the first day of school...

I've been in love with Miyuki.

Women take forever to get ready.

I know.

- It's hot. Let's jump in. - What?

Oh... Yeah.

Hey, what happened?

- I scratched myself. - What?

Sure it wasn't someone else?

- It wasn't. - Let me see.

- No! - Why not?

- Maybe a woman's scratch marks will show up. - Sorry for the wait!

See? They're captivated.

We're not at all. Right?

Hey, snap out of it!

Here!

Here!

Oops!

Okay!

Awesome! Are you okay?

Watch out!

Ready!

Oh my gosh!

Let's eat!

- This only contains Chinese cabbage. - What?

Only Chinese cabbage.

Miyuki, more towards the center.

We've got about five seconds.

- Here we go. - 3, 2, 1... Yay!

No! Go on!

Go on!

After this...

Huh?

Stop staring at it.

Your tits are kinda small.

Shut up.

You missed out on a good time.

No, we're not little kids.

What, kids?

I'm an adult.

I took that one.

- If your girlfriend found out, wouldn't she be mad? - What?

- Girlfriend? - Oh?

You have a girlfriend?

- I don't. - I saw you walking with a girl before.

- With whom? - That girl with the French major.

No, she's just a friend!

- Who is she? - You know.

The one who sleeps behind us during International Affairs class.

- Oh, her? - You hooked up with her?

- Who? - You know! The one with

the flyaway hair and runny nose.

There's one word for her. Weirdo.

- A weirdo! - That's too harsh.

Like I said, she's only a friend.

Don't be shy, everyone has different tastes.

Hey...

I'm not discriminating. It's a matter of taste.

- Not that. There's a girl just like you described behind you. - What?

You hurt her feelings.

I didn't know she was there!

Even then, you shouldn't bad-mouth someone.

I didn't say anything bad.

You called her a weirdo.

- I got carried away. - Oh, like you never do?

It was just a joke.

- I just remembered I have something to do. I have to go. - Okay.

- See you. - Bye.

- You idiot! - You said too much!

What?

Sorry.

For what?

It's not what you think.

They were just making fun of me. They always do.

It's not a big deal.

Really?

That's good then.

Do you really believe that?

If you do, then you're an insensitive jerk, too.

I don't care if people think I'm weird.

I'm used to it.

What makes me sad is you.

"She's just a friend." It's like you were apologizing.

I don't want to be that kind of "friend"!

Sorry.

If I was really your friend,

you could've at least stood up for me a little.

Yeah...

"She's not weird."

"She's just unique."

Well...

This is...

for you.

A souvenir from the countryside.

For me?

Yes, if you want it.

If I eat these...

I'll cry.

Even though I'm trying my best not to,

I'll end up crying.

- Why? - I'm really going to cry.

Really loudly?

Then forget it.

- No! - Why?

Take two exposures.

Did you change the f-stop?

Yeah, I changed it.

- Four. - Four.

- One more time. - One more.

What's wrong?

That was rough.

- Why? - Because I was holding my breath.

- What? - What?

What is it?

Hey!

That house...

Oh, I see.

- The rent is cheaper than an apartment near the station. - Oh, I see.

- Have a seat. - Okay.

- Want something to drink? - Sure.

- Hey, what's this stuff? - Hey!

Don't snoop around.

Sorry.

You don't have to hide it.

You're a man after all. You use stuff like that.

What are you mistaking this for?

It's fine, really.

The darkroom is that way.

- It has to be pitch black. - Okay.

- Are your eyes really closed? - They are.

Wait, hold on a second!

It's not winding at all.

See?

- You're right. - Put it back.

- Take out the print. - Okay.

- Place it in the developing liquid. - Place it in...

- Nice and easy. - Slowly...

Good.

- Soak it. - Soak it...

- All over. - All over...

Wow, cool!

- What do we do next? - Huh? Oh.

Grab it by the edges.

Sorry it's so late.

It's fine, I can still catch my train.

It's easy to lose track of time in the darkroom.

Time really flies by when you're having fun.

Wait a bit. When the last photo finishes, I'll walk you to the station.

Okay.

- I was really happy today. - What's that?

Photography...

You also taught me how to develop.

Come over any time.

Seriously?

It's a lot faster than developing them at the lab.

I'll come again then. For sure!

Okay.

Before you know it,

I'll become a woman that you won't be able to stop taking pictures of.

What?

Photos of the new me will be all over your house.

What do you mean?

But not yet. Give me a little time.

At least until I can take off these glasses.

- Glasses? - Yeah.

The doctor said when I become an adult,

- I won't need them anymore. - What?

I told you before,

I'm just lacking growth hormones.

Are you really going to grow?

I will!

My chest and butt will become curvy.

And, I'll get my adult teeth, too.

What?

I still have my baby molars.

What? Really?

But don't worry.

When I become a woman,

you'll be shocked at how pretty I am.

Everyone will fall in love with me.

What will you do after these incredible changes?

What kind of incredible changes?

Anything and everything!

Inside, outside, everything will change!

After I become a woman and I wear clothes this revealing,

and I'll strike a sexy pose for you.

When these glasses come off,

I know your heart will really skip a beat.

I wonder...

Hey!

Is your imagination that bad?

It'll be okay, probably.

What's okay?

- Well... - What do you mean?

- You're already a university student. - I'll start growing from now!

Even though I'm a university student, it'll start.

- Impossible. - It's not.

- Impossible! - It is not!

A means of delivery for weapons of mass destruction.

Missile proliferation control is...

Those days, I always wanted to be with Miyuki,

so I stopped putting on the medicine.

It stinks.

Close the window.

It really does smell bad.

- The poison gas factory? - Yes.

- It's helping me, though. - What?

What are you reading? Is it interesting?

- Very. - Oh, really?

Someday, I'll be a bride after all.

I'm sure you'd make a beautiful bride.

- Thanks. - It's nothing.

Makoto, don't you ever think about marriage?

No, it's still way too soon.

But you will one day, right?

I wonder...

It's probably not for me.

Why not?

No special reason.

That's a waste.

- You think so? - Not for you,

but for the person you fall in love with.

You hold one person's happiness in your hands.

Somewhere in the world,

there's a girl waiting to receive it.

So, you ought to make her happy.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

- It's not an easy hike, is it? - This much is fine.

Sorry we're late.

- Hello. - Hi.

It came up in conversation, so Miyuki wanted to see this place, too.

This place feels wonderful.

I told you. A little bit further―

- Sorry, give me a minute. - Okay.

- What's wrong? - That girl is certainly pretty. Really pretty!

On top of that, she knows she is. But, she's cool about it.

That's why both boys and girls must like her.

Elderly folks and kids probably like her, too. Even dogs.

She's really the perfect woman!

- What's wrong? - I'm the complete opposite!

Why did you bring her here?

Wasn't this our place?

Wasn't it a special place, only for us...?

About yesterday...

[The Concise Oxford French - English Dictionary]

- Amethyst! - What?

- Do you have any? - I don't.

- You don't? This stone brings love. - Wow!

- Cute, right? - Cute.

- It's pretty, isn't it? - It is.

- Is that a rose quartz? - Yes!

They're both love stones.

So cute. It's heart-shaped.

That's right, a heart.

- What are you doing? - Oh.

"Oh"?

- Look, these are love stones. - Yeah.

Come over here for a minute.

- What are you doing? - What?

Don't "what" me. Why are you with Miyuki?

Well, we became friends.

Even though you were that mad yesterday?

I wasn't mad at her.

Yeah, but...

Are you up to something?

Not at all.

- You're lying. - Lying?

Yeah.

I just want to...

like the person that the person I like likes.

[Shizuru Satonaka Photo Exhibition]

Liking the person that the person I like likes...

That strange 3-way relationship continued until the fall of 3rd year.

Spider...

Spider?

- What? - Nothing.

Hey!

- What is it? - It's nothing.

So, what's everyone's plan?

Sekiguchi is doing seminars, right?

Yeah. Shirahama and Yuka are doing internships.

Saki's studying in Berlitz.

I see. Everyone's begun looking for jobs.

Yes. What about you?

Instead of a job, why don't you take pictures for a living?

- How will I survive then? - You can eat grass.

- You've already decided, right Miyuki? - Yeah.

I feel bad that it's through my father's connection.

- Foreign capital? - Yes.

Moreover, I'm starting off overseas. That's all I know.

- You're such a hipster. - Sorry.

I see. You'll be abroad after graduation.

I'll miss you.

Me, too.

Hey, wait a minute...

You haven't decided yet either, right?

[Job Guide on various Companies]

What are you doing?

Oh, Makoto. You scared me!

Why all the bags?

- Well... - Well, what?

- I ran away from home. - You mean you moved out?

Not a small move, a big one!

So, I thought I could rent a room.

- At the university? - Yeah.

What?

Nothing.

I went to a real estate agent, but they treated me like a kid and wouldn't rent to me.

Oh.

"Oh"?

Sorry.

I came up with a plan for now.

- The mountaineering club was disbanded, so they don't use that room, right? - Yeah.

And, I'll use the football club's showers.

You can just stay at my place.

- I didn't know why I suddenly said that. - What?

You used to come over a lot.

You can stay with me.

All you had to do was ask.

Are you sure?

It's been a long time.

You stopped coming.

Because I felt sorry for Miyuki.

But nothing's changed here.

Well, no reason to change.

What about the darkroom?

- Still there. - Really?

- Shall we? - Let's!

Okay.

When did you take those?

Recently. Guess I prefer this style instead of scenery.

I see.

That's why these days, I only take photos of people.

[Internal medicine - Shizuru Satonaka]

- The bath is free now. - Okay.

- Are you going in? - Not yet.

- Hey... - Yeah?

Are you... ill?

- That's indecent of you. - What?

Don't peek at a woman's medicine.

Sorry.

She often told me lies.

Seems like we're both reliant on medicine.

What?

It's nothing. Let's go to sleep.

You can use the bed.

I'll...

It's my first time.

Please be gentle.

H-Hey.

It's fine.

I have no money.

So I'm prepared to pay with my body.

- No... - It's okay.

You can use that lubricant.

Wait a second!

That's not why I let you stay here!

I don't have that urge at all.

I just see you as a friend.

Because I haven't grown at all?

- That's not it. - Because my breasts haven't gotten bigger?

No...

What?

I'll sleep here.

- It's fine, take the bed. - I'm sleeping here.

You might regret it later.

When I grow, you'll wonder, "Why didn't I sleep with her?"

Good night.

Stupid!

Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Stupid...

Stupid.

I'm heading out first.

Why? Let's go together.

No, I'm going now.

Are you still angry?

No. It might be bad if we're seen together, won't it?

Getting along and going to school together.

I don't want to get in the way of your love life, especially not after your kindness.

See you!

You walk slow.

Why are you following me?

You're the one walking slow.

Then why don't you go ahead?

No, then I'd feel sorry for you.

Shizuru, morning.

Good morning.

- Morning. - Morning.

You can cook?

I've been cooking at home for a long time.

I looked after my little brother.

You have siblings?

Just my brother.

He died, though.

What?

A week ago.

Disease. He was in the hospital a long time.

So you left home?

Yeah, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted.

It became difficult to stay and I had a fight with my dad.

So, I took off.

What did your brother die of?

- A disease where you die if you fall in love. - What?

Kidding. It was hereditary.

- I see... - My mother died of it, too.

It happened when I was still little.

So, only my dad and I are left.

Now you understand?

I have my father's blood.

That's why I'm not very lady-like.

Look at my hair. It's like wire.

- Let's eat. - Okay.

Here.

Can you drink alcohol?

Probably.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Thank you for the food.

Bon appétit.

- It's good. - Right?

- It's really good. - See!

I have confidence in my cooking.

What?

Well, I've never seen you eat anything but donut biscuits.

Well, I do.

- Stop staring. - But I want to.

- I'm gonna eat lots and become a real woman. - Yeah.

- With a chest this big! - And, you'll wear low-cut tops, right?

Pardon me?

But, you're already 21.

I'll still grow! I will!

Yeah, yeah.

You'll regret it later.

You'll think, "I should've slept with her back then."

Yeah, yeah.

Stupid Makoto!

Are these onions?

- Cute, right? - Yeah.

They're small.

The abortion pill, RU486, was first approved in France in 1988,

and has been approved in the UK, Sweden and...

It has been used by 620,000 people over the past 11 years, but...

Again?

- You never get bored of that. - Yes.

More importantly, did you know?

Know what?

- Today is my birthday. - Oh!

Sorry, I forgot.

I knew it.

Sorry. I'm really sorry.

If you'd like to make it up, I know a place you can take me.

Did something good happen?

Kind of.

I bet it involves Miyuki.

Well, whatever.

Actually...

I wanted to ask what you think of photography.

What I think of it?

Do you want to keep doing it forever?

- For example, as your job. - What?

I want to be a professional photographer.

I'm sure it will probably take years, but...

your photos inspired me.

Mine?

Yeah.

Can't let you beat me.

And, to test my skills,

I'm going to try entering a photo contest. Want to try entering as well?

If you enter, I will, too!

- We should make a plan later, then. - A strategy meeting?

Yeah, but first we need to take photos.

This is going to be fun! Where should we shoot?

Let's go on an excursion.

We'll decide on our themes while we explore.

I'm getting excited! When will we go?

Let's see...

How about next Sunday?

I can't next Sunday...

Why not? Let's go.

Well, I have plans with Miyuki...

It can't be helped, I promised her first.

You're really the devil.

You make me so happy, then you toss me into the depths of hell.

The depths of hell?

Is it a date?

No, it's um...

some kind of wedding exhibition.

She did say she wanted to go to that.

She surprisingly likes to follow trends.

But it was you that she invited.

It's okay, go with her.

That's the moment that will break my heart.

The moment you choose Miyuki over me.

- You really... - What about your clothes?

What?

What will you wear?

The usual.

You don't have a suit?

I don't.

Then go buy one tomorrow.

- For this? - Of course!

Miyuki is going to see her dream.

If the guy standing next to her looks shabby...

Also, what about money?

Money?

- I'll get it ready. - Don't forget.

The clothes make the man.

Oh, be quiet.

I need to use the bathroom.

Are you that nervous?

Be quiet!

Good luck!

- See you. - Take care.

[2003 Spring / Summer Wedding Dress Collection]

Sorry! I have to go to the bathroom!

Shizuru...

That was beautiful.

Right?

- Makoto? - Huh?

Yeah.

What's the lineup for?

To get photos taken.

- Photos? - Wearing the dresses in the show.

Shall we head back?

Thank you for coming with me today.

Don't you want your photo taken?

It takes a lot of time.

But you're still smiling.

But you're not.

Your heart's somewhere else.

Well, that's...

You seem to want to go home.

Is someone waiting for you?

Nobody!

I was just joking.

It's okay, really. I've already had a great day.

Wait!

Okay, let's start.

Why don't you hold hands?

Hey...

What?

No, never mind.

Does it hurt?

Not at all.

Then why are you crying?

Because...

Which tooth fell out?

My right molar.

- Let me see. - No way!

Show me the tooth.

You really still had your baby teeth!

I told you, I'm still growing!

Don't touch.

Shizuru.

Are you asleep?

Almost. You?

Almost.

Then try your best to sleep.

Shizuru...

When's your birthday?

Huh?

I want to celebrate your birthday next, too.

Are you going to make me happy and put me through hell again?

I won't do that.

Don't worry about celebrating for me.

Forget about me. You should think of Miyuki.

Think of growing your love with her.

Just going out with someone isn't necessarily love.

What?

One way love...

can be enough as is.

In any case, Miyuki is

going overseas after graduation.

Why ruin a good relationship?

That's a cowardly way to think.

I'm going to sleep.

Okay, then give me a present, too.

A birthday present.

Sure.

What do you want?

A kiss.

Kiss me?

What else do you want?

If you give me a kiss, I might die of happiness.

What are you saying?

Did you kiss Miyuki?

Yeah.

Five times.

Then do it with me, too.

"Do it"?

I'm thinking of taking photos with a theme of lovers.

"Kissing Lovers."

Take a self-portrait with me.

- For the contest? - Yeah.

As a model for the photo, right?

That's right.

When is your birthday?

Let's make it tomorrow!

Tomorrow?

- Forward a little. - Forward?

More. A little more.

Still more. Okay.

- Here? - Yeah.

Are you sure?

Yeah, it's just a kiss.

As my birthday present?

As a photo model.

Morning!

Morning.

Hold on.

- You're taking them off? - Yeah.

I can see enough.

What?

Nothing...

You seem taller than when we first met.

You finally noticed?

- You really did grow. - Yeah.

- My chest, too. Want to see? - No, it's fine.

Shall we leave soon?

I'm going to stay a while longer.

- Really? - Yeah.

- You can go, you have class, right?

Yeah.

We're having a party tonight.

To celebrate finishing your photos.

I'll make dinner tonight.

A special three-course meal.

I only know how to cook three things.

See you later.

Hey, Makoto.

Huh?

Was there a little love in that kiss?

What?

Never mind. See you.

Bye!

September 19, 2002.

Seven civilians have been killed in Israel.

Two suicide bombings...

[Goodbye. Thanks for everything.]

Giving out a student's address is against policy.

I don't need the address. Can you check if she got home okay?

Hey!

Is Satonaka the girl that was here this afternoon?

Yeah, you're right.

What is it?

If it was that girl, she dropped off her notice for quitting school.

Voluntarily dropped out.

I told her it was a waste since she was close to graduating.

Sorry to bother you so late,

but has Shizuru come home? Hello?

That was my first kiss.

I thought it would be the start of everything.

But...

if only I had taken that first step sooner.

I believed our happiness

would go on forever.

I didn't know that

would be the end of everything.

Shizuru...

- How far to the hospital? - It's on the other side.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

He barely weighs anything.

- Put me down. - Hey, he said something.

Put me down.

No, we're almost there!

You're too close.

- If you're that close, you'll smell it.

Huh?

I stink of medicine.

- Say what? - He's delusional.

I reek of medicine.

You've never smelled bad, man.

- You always smell like women's shampoo. - That's right.

Hang in there!

- Hang on, man! - Just a bit further.

- Hang in there. - Don't let go.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

- You got this. - Hang in there.

Hey, what are you doing!?

- First, a toast! - Oh, right.

Anyway, in celebration of saving this fool's life.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Please be quiet.

But seriously, we're glad you're okay.

Thanks a lot and sorry.

Now you owe me your life.

Don't act so big.

We all have some news to share.

Okay.

First, everyone's found a job.

Shirahama got a job at the UN and Yuka at Foreign Affairs.

Sekiguchi's going into film and Saki got into foreign securities.

Wow, that's amazing. Congratulations!

Everyone's going abroad.

Of course, why do you think we majored in English?

- So cocky. - He really is.

Also, about Shizuru...

We all tried, but couldn't find out where she is.

I see.

- Sorry. - It's okay.

Kind of surprised that

two beginners in love were living together.

"Living together"?

Yeah.

- Yeah. - It's all right, that's love.

The more you hide it, the more arousing it is. Right?

Were you aroused by that?

You sly dog!

Please be quiet!

- Bye-bye. - Bye!

Living together?

Sorry.

But I'm not completely broken-hearted yet.

I guess that's because I never properly confessed my feelings.

I plan to wait at that house until she comes back.

I don't know how long I'll have to wait, though.

Okay.

Now I'm broken-hearted.

Makoto,

let me ask you one last thing.

- What? - What I first spoke to you...

Makoto.

Oh!

Why don't you come join us over there?

You liked me back then, didn't you?

How did you know?

A lady knows.

What?

You got me.

And so, everybody went their separate ways.

It was like I was the only one left behind.

I graduated from the university and became a pro photographer.

[No Trespassing]

[Mr. Makoto Segawa - Air mail]

[Mr. Makoto Segawa - Air mail]

[Shizuru Satonaka]

Makoto.

Miyuki?

Sorry.

Is rose tea okay?

I remembered you don't like coffee.

- Thanks. - Yeah.

More importantly...

Why was it you that showed up?

Just a minute. I'll explain.

Where's Shizuru?

It was about half a year ago.

I happened to run into Shizuru in Chinatown.

But I didn't recognize her because she had changed so much.

Shizuru recognized me right away and had a big smile.

Her smile brought back memories,

so then I knew it was her.

At the time, she was staying at her office in Chinatown.

I asked her, "Why don't you move in with me?"

- Six months ago? - Yes.

She could've told me back then.

She didn't write to me until last month.

- She had her reasons. - Reasons?

It must've been cold out there. Sorry I was late.

It's fine. What about Shizuru?

Makoto, sorry!

What?

Actually, Shizuru is in L.A. on business.

What?

She was really looking forward to seeing you.

But this job in L.A. suddenly came up and she couldn't get out of it.

So that's why you can't meet her right now.

I'm really sorry.

You don't need to apologize.

I see.

That's how it is.

It was for work, can't be helped, right?

And...

I can see her next time.

Compared to how long I waited without knowing where she was...

There's no need to rush.

Tonight, please use Shizuru's room.

She told me to tell you that.

I'll show you her exhibition.

Thank you.

Is she doing well?

She's doing well. You'd be surprised.

She has really changed.

She said that in her letter.

She's a mature woman now.

I can't picture it.

Did you sleep well?

Please use this key.

Shizuru's show opens tomorrow, so just relax today.

I'll leave a message if something comes up.

What?

[Welcome]

[Star Light Star Bright]

Please leave your message after the tone.

This is Shizuru's father.

Thank you for the considerate letter.

We finished Shizuru's memorial service,

and her ashes have been interred at her birthplace.

We deeply appreciate

your help until the very end.

If you ever return to Japan,

please come visit us.

Goodbye.

I'm home!

Makoto, are you here?

Makoto?

Makoto?

I'm coming in.

Why are you sitting in the dark?

Where did Shizuru go?

I told you. She's in L.A. for work.

You can stop the act.

Shizuru's father called.

He left a message.

Shizuru's...

already dead.

It's not true, is it?

Miyuki?

Last month...

It can't be! Why did Shizuru die?

She was sick.

It was an incredibly rare disease.

She inherited it from her mother.

From the time she was born...

she had that disease.

As she grew more,

the disease progressed along with her.

She tried her best not to grow up.

But, Makoto...

She met you

and fell in love.

She wanted you to love her the way she loved you.

Because she fell in love...

she died?

In a way.

Then...

- Because of me, Shizuruー - No!

She made her own choice.

Even if it meant the disease would progress,

she felt love and grew up.

She lived out her life.

She told me not to tell you

about her illness.

Because she was still alive,

in your heart.

Even if it was a lie,

she said she wanted to continue living on inside you.

Her letter to you,

there are still many more.

We had planned to keep sending them to you.

Shizuru...

she wrote so many letters to you from her hospital bed.

She looked like she enjoyed it.

More than anything.

She looked so happy.

Hi. Please.

Dear Makoto, how have you been doing?

It's been two years.

Were you surprised by my sudden letter?

First of all, I'm sorry I suddenly disappeared

without thanking you.

That day you kissed me...

I suddenly felt embarrassed.

Not from the kiss.

I realized I was all talk. I needed to grow up.

That's why I decided to go on a little adventure.

I called it "Becoming Independent."

I came to New York by myself,

with only the camera you taught me how to use.

But...

even though I came here,

I didn't know a single person.

So, I kept walking around for days and days.

Finally, I found my current job.

MG Studio is the private studio of

a pretty famous photographer.

And...

While I was assisting him,

I kept taking my own pictures.

Somehow, I ended up holding my own exhibition.

And...

I wanted you to see it no matter what.

My very first exhibition.

And, just how much I grew up

in the past two years.

If you saw me now, you'd be surprised.

Just as I told you, I became a real woman.

I'm sure you'll regret it now.

You'll wish you had gone out with me back then.

But, none of that really matters.

The only thing I want is to see you.

I'd like to see you and be praised by you, if possible.

"You really did your best! or "You're great!"

In the gentle way you talked

to me that day.

There's a signal button at the crosswalk up the road.

Probably better to cross there.

"It's probably better if you cross there," you said.

At that very moment,

I fell in love with you, Makoto.

Makoto... I love you more than anything in the world.

[It was the only kiss, the love I have ever known...]

Hey, Makoto...

when we kissed...

was there a little love?

There was.

Not just a little.

You were...

my whole world.

I'm...

I'm glad I was born who I am.

Not anyone else,

just who I am.

I've never seen you eat anything but donut biscuits.

Well, I do.

When I become a woman, you'll be shocked at how pretty I am.

Everyone will fall in love with me.

Love. It can be fatal.

If you give me a kiss, I might die of happiness.

Ready to go?

Yeah.

I've seen enough. I'm flying back to Japan today.

I see...

Makoto...

Do you still remember what I told you?

You hold one person's happiness in your hands.

I'm sure Shizuru received it.

Could you send me the rest of her letters?

Sure.

I look forward to them.

She often told me lies.

I still want her to lie to me for

a little longer.

Excuse me, I'm Segawa.

- Here. - Thanks.

[Old Main, Knox College, Galesburg, Illinois]

Makoto, how are you?

Now, I'm in Galesburg, Illinois.

It's a great town with lots of nature.

But, traveling and taking pictures like this...

Every day is so wonderful that

I can't imagine it'll all come to an end.

However...

it's always like this.

Farewells always come sooner than expected.

Even then, everybody smiles and says,

"Goodbye, let's meet again someday."

"Goodbye, see you again somewhere."

So, even though I'm very far away,

I will say it to you.

Goodbye.

Let's meet again somewhere.
