01:50.170 --> 01:52.940
Did Ishihara-san say anything this morning?

01:52.940 --> 01:54.920
Not particularly. Why?

01:55.350 --> 01:56.510
No reason.

01:56.510 --> 01:58.640
If she didn't say anything, that's fine.

01:59.110 --> 02:00.770
Well, putting that aside for now,

good job keeping yourself 
under control last night.

02:03.190 --> 02:04.600

02:07.960 --> 02:09.280
I did.

02:09.280 --> 02:11.570
And I was a little reassured.

02:12.450 --> 02:17.480
I'm glad you're not the type to lose your head 
and just stick it in without protection.

02:18.080 --> 02:20.050
Can we not talk about that here?

02:20.050 --> 02:20.790

I know you're not known for 
your considerate words,

but if you keep talking like that 
to Ishihara-san, you'll make her cry.

03:35.310 --> 03:37.330
Oh, but it started raining later,

03:37.330 --> 03:39.920
so maybe you spent the night 
somewhere together.

03:46.450 --> 03:49.790
She seems like a wonderful girl, though.

03:49.790 --> 03:54.510
Too good for you, even. Like, she 
should be totally out of your league.

03:54.510 --> 03:59.000
And you're clueless about women, 
so that can't be easy on her.

that's making you uneasy?

06:11.000 --> 06:12.370
Well...

06:12.830 --> 06:16.640
If there is something that's making you 
feel insecure, you should tell him.

06:16.640 --> 06:19.540
I'm sure he'll do his best 
to make things right.

06:21.520 --> 06:22.630
Yes.

06:22.630 --> 06:24.370
You're right.

06:24.370 --> 06:27.250
That's the kind of person he is.

06:27.930 --> 06:29.730
I can tell when I'm with him.

06:30.090 --> 06:34.810
He's always so considerate and careful, 
and he makes me feel special.

06:35.170 --> 06:38.250
I really do think he's the only guy for me.

06:38.710 --> 06:43.400
Which is why I want to leave this trial 
behind and start dating him for real.

06:44.030 --> 06:47.320
If I don't hurry up, he'll get 
taken by Tachibana-san.

I really can't let something 
like this bring me down.

06:51.420 --> 06:53.810
I need to get stronger.

06:54.120 --> 06:55.720
Thank you, Tokui-kun.

06:55.720 --> 06:58.600
I'm going to stop being a coward 
and actually talk to him.

I really did just want to see you.

10:43.950 --> 10:45.150
I'll talk to you later!

10:46.180 --> 10:47.490
Ishihara-san!

10:50.950 --> 10:56.090
Um, is it okay if I borrow him 
until your meeting time?

10:58.900 --> 11:00.840
What the hell are you saying?

11:01.210 --> 11:02.240
Hey!

11:02.240 --> 11:03.630
You're...

11:03.630 --> 11:06.750
Yes. I'm his kouhai, Umezawa Makina.

11:06.750 --> 11:10.350
There's something that's really 
been weighing on my mind lately,

11:10.350 --> 11:12.580
and I was hoping I could discuss it with him.

11:13.370 --> 11:15.520
If he's all right with it.

11:16.870 --> 11:23.010
He already told me how he 
thinks of you as a little sister.

11:23.010 --> 11:24.430
And besides...

11:25.080 --> 11:26.810
I trust him.

11:30.870 --> 11:33.350
Watari-senpai, hurry up!

11:33.640 --> 11:36.260
Check this out! Cute, right?

11:36.260 --> 11:37.950
Should I buy it?

11:40.300 --> 11:41.780
<b>The pack mule</b>

11:43.490 --> 11:47.050
I just got paid, so I wanted 
to go on a shopping spree!

11:47.430 --> 11:48.480
Never mind that.

11:48.480 --> 11:51.280
What about that thing you said 
was weighing on your mind?

11:51.280 --> 11:53.160
Is it something to do with your track team?

11:53.160 --> 11:54.750
No.

11:54.970 --> 11:58.710
I think I might have a crush on someone.

11:58.710 --> 11:59.840
Really?

11:59.840 --> 12:01.390
When did that happen?

12:01.390 --> 12:03.320
You go to an all-girls school, right?

12:03.320 --> 12:04.510
Is it a guy from another school?

12:04.510 --> 12:05.520
I guess.

12:05.520 --> 12:09.940
When I realized I liked him, 
I couldn't believe it myself.

12:09.940 --> 12:11.810
I really don't know what to do.

12:12.090 --> 12:14.050
That doesn't seem like you.

12:14.490 --> 12:16.280
So are you going to tell him?

12:16.630 --> 12:18.650
That's the part I'm not sure about.

12:19.280 --> 12:21.360
I don't want to mess it up!

12:21.360 --> 12:25.160
I can't see it ending well 
if I go on the offensive now.

12:25.160 --> 12:29.910
And I definitely don't want to do anything 
that pushes us further apart than we are now.

12:32.680 --> 12:35.550
I know that feeling all too well.

12:35.550 --> 12:38.350
It really is all about not 
wanting to mess up, huh?

12:39.410 --> 12:41.840
Let's both do our best, okay, Umezawa?

12:44.200 --> 12:46.550
All right, here's the next store!

12:46.550 --> 12:49.640
I like collecting cute underwear, you see.

12:54.090 --> 12:55.940
What do you think about that one?

12:56.290 --> 12:59.070
That doesn't really strike me as your style.

12:59.810 --> 13:02.230
<i>Ishihara-san would be a 
different story, though.</i>

13:03.230 --> 13:05.860
Why don't I try it on and show you, then?

13:06.880 --> 13:08.400
Just... kidding...

13:08.820 --> 13:11.480
Why are you getting embarrassed 
at your own shtick?!

13:13.150 --> 13:15.790
Senpai, I wanna go eat some meat!

13:15.790 --> 13:17.500
<b>Steak House</b>

13:19.210 --> 13:21.490
Caught you cheating red-handed.

13:21.490 --> 13:22.920
Satsuki!

13:22.920 --> 13:25.330
Oh, right! This is where you work now!

13:25.720 --> 13:27.610
You're that weirdo from last time...

13:27.610 --> 13:29.510
And you're Kouhai A.

13:29.810 --> 13:32.690
Can you not address me 
like I'm some sort of extra?

13:33.970 --> 13:36.540
And this isn't cheating.

13:36.540 --> 13:39.760
I already asked his girlfriend 
for permission to borrow him,

13:39.760 --> 13:41.940
and he's been helping me 
with a personal problem.

13:44.030 --> 13:45.960
Is that true, Nao-kun?

13:45.960 --> 13:48.230
I-I guess.

13:48.690 --> 13:54.170
Then... maybe I should borrow 
you at some point, too.

13:56.540 --> 13:59.790
The thing is, ever since 
summer vacation started,

13:59.790 --> 14:01.950
I've had a problem on my mind, as well.

14:01.950 --> 14:04.000
Wh-What kind of problem?

14:06.790 --> 14:07.860
Gotcha.

14:07.860 --> 14:10.300
By the way, what's your rental fee?

14:10.300 --> 14:11.930
Why, you...

14:15.950 --> 14:21.830
Whatever. I guess I'm just a little sister 
to you. I guess I'm just Kouhai A.

14:22.960 --> 14:24.380
What are you talking about?

14:24.380 --> 14:28.150
I guess you really do prefer 
girls with big breasts.

14:28.150 --> 14:30.320
Is that what Satsuki said?

14:30.320 --> 14:31.660
Because it's not true.

14:31.660 --> 14:32.570
Liar!

14:32.570 --> 14:35.640
Your girlfriend's as stacked as a pin-up model!

14:36.080 --> 14:39.590
It's not like that was why I fell for her.

14:39.590 --> 14:41.960
But I'd be lying if I said 
they didn't catch the eye.

14:41.960 --> 14:46.660
I mean, most guys go for girls with big ones.

14:46.660 --> 14:51.350
I'm sure once a guy falls for you, he won't 
let something like that get in the way.

14:51.830 --> 14:54.120
Including the guy you like, I hope.

14:54.930 --> 14:58.270
In fact, why don't you find 
someone like that yourself?

15:02.490 --> 15:05.650
Senpai, could you spread your legs a little?

15:06.470 --> 15:07.430
Like this?

15:08.070 --> 15:10.600
Hey, what are you doing?

15:10.960 --> 15:14.620
I appreciate the reassurance, but I 
still can't help but worry about it.

15:14.620 --> 15:15.530
So...

15:15.850 --> 15:18.110
Why don't you try giving them a squeeze?

15:19.130 --> 15:21.380
What are you saying?

15:21.380 --> 15:25.030
I mean, they're supposed to get bigger 
if you massage them, right?

15:25.030 --> 15:28.090
Those kinds of jokes don't suit you.

15:28.460 --> 15:30.040
I'm not trying to be funny.

15:31.170 --> 15:35.770
I don't mind them being touched... 
if it's by you.

15:41.180 --> 15:45.390
N-Not that you'd have the guts to do it, anyway.

15:45.390 --> 15:49.280
But if you're too timid, you're going 
to disappoint your girlfriend.

15:49.280 --> 15:53.570
I mean, it kind of felt like she'd 
been trying to avoid you earlier.

15:54.630 --> 15:56.310
I just feel bad for you at this point,

15:56.310 --> 15:59.900
and that's why I'm graciously 
allowing you to touch my boobs.

15:59.900 --> 16:01.790
Don't read too much into it.

16:03.960 --> 16:05.670
I won't hold back, then.

16:13.430 --> 16:15.600
Umezawa! Are you all right?

16:15.960 --> 16:18.890
I'm fine. I can get up by myself.

16:20.610 --> 16:22.600
You're right.

16:22.600 --> 16:24.190
I really don't have the guts.

16:24.600 --> 16:26.770
Especially when it comes to Ishihara-san.

16:26.770 --> 16:29.000
I just don't want her to think badly of me,

16:29.000 --> 16:31.940
so I end up hiding my real feelings 
and trying too hard to put up a front.

16:32.510 --> 16:34.790
I want to remain the perfect guy for her.

16:35.910 --> 16:39.870
But I have to actually put that 
into words, or it's all for nothing.

16:40.240 --> 16:42.180
I need to tell her that I love her so much,

16:42.180 --> 16:45.090
I'm afraid to touch her in case 
it all comes crumbling down.

16:46.920 --> 16:50.960
Having you just tell me that straight-up 
really helped sort out my feelings.

16:51.190 --> 16:54.110
If you have someone you like, 
I hope you can do the same.

16:54.800 --> 16:55.970
No.

16:55.970 --> 16:57.990
This wasn't what I intended.

16:58.320 --> 17:02.600
I didn't mean to encourage you or anything.

17:05.210 --> 17:05.970
Huh?

17:06.440 --> 17:09.480
For your information, I have a date 
with the guy I like tomorrow!

17:09.480 --> 17:11.650
I'm gonna be busy till then, so goodbye!

17:11.650 --> 17:13.280
What's her problem?

17:15.760 --> 17:19.390
And she forgot all her shopping bags!

17:22.170 --> 17:23.570
Ishihara-san?

17:24.290 --> 17:25.810
When did you get here?

17:26.370 --> 17:28.250
Just now.

17:28.250 --> 17:30.510
Oh, g-good!

17:30.510 --> 17:31.360
So, wait...

17:31.360 --> 17:33.410
Did you hear what we were talking about?!

17:33.960 --> 17:35.590
No, I didn't.

17:35.590 --> 17:38.110
Thank goodness.

17:38.110 --> 17:42.050
I couldn't hear it properly, so I was hoping 
you could repeat yourself for me.

17:42.890 --> 17:45.830
Just the last part will do.

17:45.830 --> 17:47.850
Uh, the last part?

17:48.830 --> 17:54.040
I just want to hear you say 
the part about loving me again.

17:55.570 --> 17:57.830
O-Okay.

18:04.910 --> 18:07.560
To be honest, I've been feeling 
insecure all this time.

18:07.560 --> 18:11.290
After that night, I started to worry 
that you'd come to hate me.

18:11.600 --> 18:12.650
I would never!

18:13.040 --> 18:16.050
I just wasn't confident 
I could have stopped partway.

18:16.430 --> 18:18.470
On the inside, I was really happy.

18:20.510 --> 18:22.470
I... I see.

18:22.470 --> 18:26.190
But I really do think it's a little early.

18:26.190 --> 18:27.410
You're right.

18:27.410 --> 18:29.740
I was rushing into it.

18:29.740 --> 18:31.630
The timing wasn't right.

18:32.310 --> 18:33.860
That's not exactly what I meant.

18:34.110 --> 18:37.530
Next time, I'll make sure 
to give it more thought.

18:37.530 --> 18:38.760
<i>"Next time"?</i>

18:38.760 --> 18:40.250
Right, yeah.

18:40.560 --> 18:42.420
<i>Gotta change the subject.</i>

18:42.420 --> 18:45.580
So you're going to cram school now?

18:45.580 --> 18:48.630
Yes. I just started the summer course today.

18:48.630 --> 18:50.830
My parents said I should give it a try,

18:50.830 --> 18:54.000
since I'm in second year and need to 
start preparing for entrance exams.

18:54.400 --> 18:57.470
So you're going to college, huh? 
I figured you would.

18:57.470 --> 18:58.090
Yeah.

18:58.090 --> 19:00.680
Not that I've got it all planned out yet.

19:01.010 --> 19:03.970
Having a college degree will be 
useful for finding a job, as well.

19:04.390 --> 19:05.910
Even if I get married,

19:05.910 --> 19:08.710
it's pretty common these days 
for both spouses to work.

19:09.350 --> 19:12.370
I-Is that thinking too far ahead?

19:12.770 --> 19:14.320
Yeah...

19:14.320 --> 19:15.050
Huh?

19:15.400 --> 19:19.670
No, I just realized that you're already 
putting serious thought into your future.

19:22.410 --> 19:26.040
<i>I need to start thinking about the future, too.</i>

19:26.740 --> 19:31.240
<i>Honestly, I never even imagined 
myself going on to college.</i>

19:32.600 --> 19:34.710
<i>But that's for later.</i>

19:35.080 --> 19:37.640
<i>I still need to deal with Umezawa's bags!</i>

19:44.450 --> 19:47.540
If you don't come to the 
training camp next week,

19:47.540 --> 19:50.430
the coach is considering 
expelling you from the team.

19:51.600 --> 19:53.840
<i>What would happen then?</i>

19:54.480 --> 19:56.810
<i>I guess I'd have to transfer schools.</i>

19:57.310 --> 20:01.190
<i>Maybe I wouldn't be able to see 
Watari-senpai anymore, either.</i>

20:02.280 --> 20:04.560
<i>I guess that's fine.</i>

20:04.970 --> 20:08.160
<i>It's not like I'm his number one, anyway.</i>

20:12.160 --> 20:14.800
<i>I run away at the slightest setback.</i>

20:14.800 --> 20:18.340
<i>I give up and lose confidence. 
Rinse and repeat.</i>

20:19.040 --> 20:23.440
<i>I mean, trying hard when you know you 
can't be number one is just exhausting.</i>

20:29.130 --> 20:32.350
Watari-senpai? What are you doing here?

20:32.350 --> 20:34.360
You're finally back.

20:34.360 --> 20:37.500
I asked the dorm supervisor, 
and she said you were out for a jog,

20:37.500 --> 20:39.290
so I've been waiting here for ages.

20:39.750 --> 20:40.970
Here.

20:40.970 --> 20:41.880
Huh?

20:41.880 --> 20:43.420
The clothes you bought today.

20:43.890 --> 20:45.160
I forgot them.

20:45.160 --> 20:46.700
Well, don't.

20:46.960 --> 20:49.040
I could have given these to you next week,

20:49.490 --> 20:53.000
but you're going on a date with 
the guy you like tomorrow, right?

20:54.960 --> 20:56.470
That's all.

20:56.470 --> 20:57.440
See ya.

21:03.840 --> 21:08.170
He could've just left me alone.

21:09.350 --> 21:11.310
<b>Room 23</b>

21:09.350 --> 21:11.310
<b>First-year</b>

21:09.350 --> 21:11.310
<b>Umezawa Makina</b>

21:16.610 --> 21:17.610
Huh?

21:17.610 --> 21:19.270
Hi there, Makina-chan!

21:19.270 --> 21:21.770
I didn't know you knew where we lived.

21:21.770 --> 21:24.540
I saw it on Senpai's résumé.

21:24.540 --> 21:25.900
Oh, okay.

21:25.900 --> 21:28.270
Well, he's not here, because he's working.

21:28.270 --> 21:29.910
What about your track team?

21:30.210 --> 21:31.950
I'm going to quit.

21:32.510 --> 21:35.760
I've decided to give up on everything 
and start with a clean slate.

21:35.760 --> 21:38.890
Then how about you give up on 
my brother while you're at it?

21:38.890 --> 21:40.290
How did you know about that?!

21:40.290 --> 21:41.960
Women's intuition?

21:41.960 --> 21:44.460
With you, it's just super obvious.

21:45.050 --> 21:48.510
You won't ever become his number one, though.

21:48.510 --> 21:50.050
I know that.

21:50.050 --> 21:53.260
But I decided I wouldn't overthink things.

21:53.550 --> 21:56.600
I'm also giving up on giving up on Senpai!

21:56.600 --> 21:59.650
I'm launching an all-out offensive, 
no matter the consequences!

21:59.650 --> 22:03.100
Adversity only makes love stronger!

22:03.100 --> 22:04.820
Not that I would know!

22:05.310 --> 22:06.680
Wow. You really are...

22:06.680 --> 22:08.200
an optimist.
