SIGN    First stop, Cambodia
[01:58] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll do that. And I'll
    save up money.
[01:58] [Messenger] Sign
    It'll be my immediate goal.
[01:58] [Messenger] Sign
    First stop, Cambodia
[01:58] [Messenger] Sign
    Safe travels.
[02:01] Yuki
    I wonder if Itsuomi-san's reached Cambodia yet.
[02:06] [Messenger] Sign
    Do you have a passport?
[02:06] [Messenger] Sign
    I don't. I do want to try
    going overseas, though.
[02:06] [Messenger] Sign
    Get one, and I'll
    take you.
[02:09] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll do that. And I'll
    save up money.
[02:09] [Messenger] Sign
    It'll be my immediate goal.
[02:09] [Messenger] Sign

[02:09] [Messenger] Sign
    Safe travels.
[02:13] Yuki
    I want to be able to travel with him...
[02:16] Yuki
    so I gotta hurry up and find a job!
[02:22] Yuki
    I... I can't read her lips.

SIGN    Chuo-dori
[02:30] Yuki
    They're probably not going to call me.
[02:33] Yuki
    I wonder how people normally
    find part-time work.
[02:40] Yuki
    I'm pretty sure this was the place
    Madoka-chan mentioned in high school...
[02:46] (Flashback) Madoka
    I'm gonna work here for sure!
SIGN    Use this space to list why you want to work here, your hobbies, your skills, etc.
[02:53] (Flashback) Madoka
    Boom!
[02:55] Yuki
    She did get accepted here.
[02:57] [Messenger] Sign
    Yoohoo!
[02:57] [Messenger] Sign
    Madoka-chan, would you mind
    giving me advice on something?
[02:57] [Messenger] Sign
    I've been thinking of
    starting a part-time job
    during spring break...
[02:58] [Messenger] Sign
    Madoka-chan, would you mind
    giving me advice on something?
[02:58] [Messenger] Sign
    I've been thinking of
    starting a part-time job
    during spring break...
[02:58] [Messenger] Sign
    Could you give me some pointers
    on the process?
[03:04] Yuki
    Wow, she responded already?
[03:07] [Messenger] Sign
    Thanks for letting me
    stay the night, Rin-chan.
[03:07] [Messenger] Sign
    No problem. See you
    at college!
[03:07] [Messenger] Sign
    Today
[03:07] [Messenger] Sign
    Yuki <3 Are you free
    to meet right now?
[03:07] Yuki
    Hmm? Rin-chan?
[03:10] Rin
    Man, work's killing me!
[03:13] [Messenger] Sign
    You started working too?
[03:15] Rin
    Yeah, at a realtor's office.
[03:17] Rin
    It's been busy, probably
    because it's spring break.
[03:22] (Flashback) Senpaia
    Fujishiro-san! Run a listing check!
[03:24] (Flashback) Rin
    Listing check?!
[03:25] (Flashback) Senpaib
    That's the meter box, not storage!
[03:27] (Flashback) Rin
    I'm sorry!
[03:28] (Flashback) Senpaic
    Answer the phone!
[03:30] (Flashback) Rin
    On it!
[03:33] (Flashback) Tsujimura
    Hey there.
[03:34] (Flashback) Tsujimura
    No need to panic and rush things,
    okay, Rin-chan?
[03:36] (Flashback) Rin
    Thank you, Tsujimura-san!
[03:39] (Flashback) Tsujimura
    If there's anything you don't understand,
    feel free to ask.
[03:42] (Flashback) Rin
    Thank you so much...
[03:47] Rin
    How about you?
[03:49] Rin
    Found a job yet?
[03:54] [Messenger] Sign
    Not yet. It's been hard.
[03:55] Rin
    Oh...
[03:57] Rin
    When does Itsuomi-san get back, again?
[04:00] [Messenger] Sign
    End of spring break, apparently.
    He's visiting a bunch of countries.
[04:02] Rin
    Haha, that's so him.
[04:05] Rin
    Must be nice to have a boyfriend
    who's used to going overseas, though.
[04:10] Yuki
    Boyfriend...
[04:11] [Messenger] Sign
    So, I can call him
    my boyfriend?
[04:13] Rin
    What else would he be?
[04:15] Rin
    He might not be around at the moment,
    but you two have started dating.
[04:21] Rin
    You can develop your love once he gets back.
[04:25] Yuki
    Love...
[04:27] Yuki
    Love, huh?
[04:34] Rin
    Isn't it great?
[04:36] Yuki
    Okay, I'm going to keep at it!

    Try to overcome that with your cover letters.

[05:26] [Messenger] Sign
    I added you. Yay.
[05:26] [Messenger] Sign
    Today
[05:26] [Messenger] Sign
    What's up?
    You at home?
[05:27] Yuki
    Hmm? Oushi-kun?
[05:28] [Messenger] Sign
    What's up?
    You at home?
[05:28] [Messenger] Sign
    My sister's back home for a bit.
[05:32] Yuki
    His sister? Mio-san?
[05:36] Mio
    Yuki-chan!
[05:40] [SONG] Sign
    It's been ages
SIGN    It's been ages
[05:43] Yuki
    Mio-san studied sign, and we
    used to play together as kids.
[05:51] Mio
    You've grown up so pretty!
    I love your hair color.
[05:55] Oushi
    Use sign, Mio.
[05:57] Mio
    Oh.
[06:00] Mio
    Right... Sorry, I've forgotten most of it.
[06:05] Mio
    Interpret for me, Oushi.
[06:07] Oushi
    Wha?
[06:09] Mio
    I'm working at a nursing home.
[06:13] Mio
    We had a deaf person move in recently,
    which made me think of you.
[06:29] Mio
    We talked a bunch! That was fun.
[06:32] Mio
    Thanks, Oushi.
[06:34] Oushi
    Sure.
[06:34] Mio
    Teach me stuff again.
[06:37] Mio
    Oh, can we exchange contact details?
[06:41] Mio
    Thanks. I'll read the QR code.
[06:46] Mio
    Let's video call and stuff sometime.
[06:53] Mio
    But, really, you're amazing, Oushi.
[06:56] Mio
    You've been consistent in your
    sign language studies.
[07:00] Mio
    Not translating that?
[07:02] Oushi
    Huh?
[07:03] Mio
    You wouldn't, would you?
[07:10] [Messenger] Sign
    happy to be friends
SIGN    Good to know you.
[07:12] [Messenger] Sign
    Yuki-chan, you're
    in love, aren't you?
[07:18] [Messenger] Sign
    How did you know?
[07:19] [Messenger] Sign
    It's obvious! You look so
    much prettier now, too.
[07:22] [Messenger] Sign
    I can lend you an ear
    anytime if you wanna
    talk about it <3
[07:28] Mio
    You go to the same college, right?
    Feel free to order him around.
[07:34] Mio
    Hey, where's the translation?
[07:37] Mio
    Well, hang in there, little bro.
[07:43] Mio
    See you, Yuki-chan.
[07:44] Mio
    I'll make sure to brush up on my sign.
[07:56] Yuki
    Oushi-kun, you're still studying sign?
[08:00] Oushi
    Yeah.
[08:02] Oushi
    I think I might want to be
    a sign language interpreter.
[08:07] Oushi
    Aren't I amazing?
[08:09] Yuki
    Yeah! That's awesome!
[08:11] Yuki
    It's usually women who take
    more of an interest in sign.
[08:16] Yuki
    Hmm?
[08:18] Yuki
    What?
[08:20] Oushi
    Praise me more.
[08:27] Yuki
    I'll be going, then.
[08:30] Yuki
    I'm glad I got to see Mio-san again.
[08:38] Oushi
    Have you met that dude lately?
[08:41] Yuki
    "That dude"?
SIGN    That dude
[08:44] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san? Are you two friends or something?
[08:47] Oushi
    Hell no!
SIGN    His place...
SIGN    Have you been staying over there and stuff?
[09:07] Yuki
    Oushi-kun, I don't know what expression
    you're asking me that with.
[09:16] Yuki
    Why did you sign looking down?
[09:19] Oushi
    So, what's the answer?
[09:22] Yuki
    I haven't stayed over.
[09:24] Oushi
    Huh...
[09:28] Oushi
    Don't overthink it.
[09:30] Oushi
    I just don't like the idea of some weirdo
    taking advantage of your disability.
[09:37] Oushi
    As your childhood friend.
[09:47] Yuki
    I wasn't overthinking it or anything.
[09:53] Yuki
    For Oushi-kun, it's not about me.
[09:56] Yuki
    He just really hates the idea of his sympathy
    for the deaf being misunderstood.
[10:03] Yuki
    He's been saying it for years,
    and he'll probably keep saying it.
[10:08] Yuki
    But, like, there's no need for him to.
[10:20] Konno
    What's wrong, Emma?
    Why are you sighing at your phone?
[10:23] Emma
    Huh? No way, did I just sigh?
[10:26] Konno
    Sure did. Boyfriend?
[10:28] Emma
    N-N-No, no!
[10:30] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll be home tonight.
[10:30] [Messenger] Sign
    Today
[10:30] [Messenger] Sign
    Been a while, Itsu-kun <3
[10:30] [Messenger] Sign
    Let's go drinking sometime!
[10:30] [Messenger] Sign
    Any places you want to check out?
[10:31] Konno
    Wow, he hasn't replied for a week?
[10:34] Emma
    He's probably traveling or something.
[10:37] Emma
    This is nothing new for him.
[10:39] Konno
    Then why let it bother you?
[10:42] Konno
    He'll get back to you at some point.
[10:44] Konno
    If he's into you, that is.
[10:48] Konno
    C'mon, your customer will be here soon.
[10:52] Konno
    Emma!
[10:53] Emma
    Oh... Coming!

[11:11] [Messenger] Sign
    Yuki, send me
    a sign video.
[11:17] [Messenger] Sign
    Yuki, send me
     a sign video.
[11:17] [Messenger] Sign
    Do you have time for it?
[11:19] [Messenger] Sign
    Yeah.
[11:21] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll make time.
[11:24] Yuki
    I'll put on some makeup
    and take a video later.
[11:26] [Messenger] Sign
    So, hey
[11:29] [Messenger] Sign
    It all happened so last minute...
[11:31] [Messenger] Sign
    It all happened so last minute...
[11:31] [Messenger] Sign
    But, uh... Here's to
     a good relationship.
[11:33] Yuki
    Last minute or not, I'm delighted
    to be going out with you.
[11:37] [Messenger] Sign
    Let me know if anything bothers you
     or gives you trouble.
SIGN    I was hoping to make
    you laugh again
[11:45] Yuki
    S-Sorry! Please don't touch my tummy again!
[11:48] [Messenger] Sign
    Please don't touch
     my tummy again!
[11:49] [Messenger] Sign
    Got it.
[11:51] [Messenger] Sign
    But I can touch
    you elsewhere?
[11:56] [Messenger] Sign
    That's fine.
[11:58] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll take good care of you.
[12:03] Yuki
    The sky to the west is dyed orange
    in the corner of my eyes.
[12:09] Yuki
    I love these beautiful moments.
[12:12] [Messenger] Sign
    When I get back
[12:14] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll make time for us.
[12:17] [Messenger] Sign
    You can get clingy with me.
[12:22] Yuki
    Why is the sky in my world so enormous?
[12:27] Yuki
    Will this twilight shining down on me
    soon shine down on you as well?
[12:36] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san...
[12:39] Yuki
    I miss you.
[12:45] Yuki
    It's been a month since
    Itsuomi-san left on his trip.
[12:48] Yuki
    At times, I wouldn't hear from him for days,
    but then he'd give me a full recap.
[12:55] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    There was a festival in Thailand.
    Makha Bucha.
[12:59] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    It happens on a full moon day
    around this time of year.
[13:02] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    Made it to Myanmar.
[13:04] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    Here's me having a pint
    with a friend I made here.
[13:08] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    They were selling birds.
[13:09] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    You can buy them and set them free for karma.
[13:12] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    I did it.
[13:14] Yuki
    And then, he went off the grid again.
[13:16] Yuki
    He was in India last.
[13:18] [Messenger] Sign
    Late at night on Indian trains,
    tea vendors walk around
    saying "Chai..." in a low voice.
[13:19] Yuki
    I scroll down and see countries
    I know nothing about,
[13:22] Yuki
    all while my familiar hometown
    flows by outside the train window.
[13:27] Yuki
    It almost makes our relationship
    feel otherworldly.
[13:32] Yuki
    Hmm?

    That was my first-ever kiss,
    and this is how it goes...
[16:28] Yuki
    You're looking at me like
    nothing even happened.
[16:32] Yuki
    What are you playing at?
[16:36] Itsuomi
    Okay, let's go.
    I'm craving some Japanese food.
[16:41] Yuki
    Why does he keep launching
    surprise bazookas at me?
[16:46] Yuki
    My heart feels like it's going to explode...
[16:50] Yuki
    His hair's a bit longer.
[16:54] Yuki
    And he's got a tan now.
[17:03] Yuki
    C-Calm down, me!
[17:06] Yuki
    It feels like he's grown
    a lot in our time apart.

    bar drunk that one time
[19:39] Yuki
    Oh, the guy who was with Emma-san back then.
[19:43] Yuki
    Right, Shin-san.
[19:46] [Messenger] Sign
    I want to introduce you to him
    before anyone else
[19:53] [Messenger] Sign

    meeting him now?

    Now...
[20:04] [Messenger] Sign
    I don't mind.
[20:06] [Messenger] Sign
    But...
[20:07] [Messenger] Sign
    I don't mind.
[20:07] [Messenger] Sign
    But...
[20:10] [Messenger] Sign
    It's a little scary.
[20:14] Itsuomi
    Is this about your hearing?
[20:17] Yuki
    He's right, but I feel
    like I shouldn't admit it.
[20:20] Yuki
    He's offering to introduce me
    to a close friend.
[20:27] [Messenger] Sign
    Forget I said anything.
[20:29] [Messenger] Sign
    Not that he's the judgy type...
[20:35] [Messenger] Sign
    It's fine!!
    Let's go see him!!
[20:37] Itsuomi
    Huh? You sure?
[20:39] [Messenger] Sign
    Please introduce me
    to Shin-san.
[20:44] Itsuomi
    Let's hold hands.
[20:48] Itsuomi
    Give me a squeeze if you want to leave.
[20:57] Yuki
    It's begun.
[20:59] Yuki
    I want him to take me into his world.
[21:03] Yuki
    I want to learn more and have him learn more.
[21:07] Yuki
    But...
[21:09] Yuki
