[02:24] Raido     High school's going to be different. [02:28] Raido     I never really fit in in middle school     because of how unfriendly I look. [02:35] Raido     But that ends now.

[04:26] Raido     See you tomorrow. [04:34] Raido     I must've imagined it... [04:44] Raido     She really does feel distant.     It's like she's so far away... [04:49] Raido     even though she's sitting next to me. [04:52] Raido     She's petite, too. [04:55] Raido     Maybe it's messing with my depth perception. [05:10] Raido     Does she... not like me? [05:14] Raido     Here. You dropped this. [05:19] Raido     Still nothing, huh? [05:25] Male Teacher     Okay, that's all for today. [05:27] Male Teacher     Don't forget your homework.

[05:46] Raido     She's right in my face,     but she still sounds so far away! [05:49] Raido     Wait... [05:51] Raido     Maybe back then... [05:54] Raido     Did she actually say something? [05:58] Raido     Isn't this a little too close, though? [06:01] Raido     Oh, you forget your book? [06:04] Math Teacher     An expression that made of multiple      monomials is called a polynomial. [06:09] Math Teacher     And the monomials that make up     the polynomial are called its "terms." [06:12] Raido     What is she thinking? [06:14] Raido     Well, I guess it's fine. [06:16] Raido     Her face and hands are really tiny.     She's like a doll. [06:25] Raido     Seriously, isn't this too close? [06:27] Raido     What is it? Did you need something else? [06:32] Raido     I guess she wants to eat lunch together. [06:35] Raido     And she's still so close! [06:39] Raido     Kinda oversized, don't you think? [06:43] Raido     Y-Your lunch looks good. [06:49] Raido     She's feeding me? [06:51] Raido     You don't need to... [06:53] Raido     Okay, I'll try it, so stop. [07:01] Raido     She ate the whole thing. [07:03] Raido     She's got a way bigger appetite     than you'd think. [07:11] Raido     I guess we're walking home together, too. [07:20] Raido     You want to go in here? [07:26] Raido     She wanted to stop at a photo booth? [07:29] Raido     What now? [07:32] Sign     The world becomes rainbow colored     I hear the meow, oh, the meow [07:34] Raido     Karaoke, huh? [07:37] Raido     The mic's not picking her voice up, is it? [07:42] Raido     I wonder why she suddenly became so friendly. [07:54] Raido     Good morning, Aharen-san. [08:08] Raido     And yet when I greet her, I get nothing. [08:11] Raido     It's really hard to tell with her. [08:13] Shirorin     Shirorin! [08:15] Raido     Was she just acting weird yesterday? [08:18] Raido     I guess that's fine, too. SIGN    Japanese History [08:21] Raido     Things'll just to back to how they were. [08:25] Raido     That said... [08:34] Raido     If you forgot your book, wanna share mine?

[08:54] Aharen     I don't know how close to get. [08:59] Aharen     I got too friendly when people     were even a little nice, [09:05] Aharen     and they didn't like it...     so they kept their distance. [09:11] Aharen     I wanted to stop acting like that     now that I'm in high school. [09:16] Aharen     I was trying to be careful, but... [09:19] Aharen     Yesterday you picked up my eraser     and talked to me, Raido-kun... [09:29] Aharen     And I was really glad. [09:32] Aharen     But when I got home,     I thought I might've overdone it again. [09:38] Aharen     I'm sorry. I won't do it any— [09:42] Raido     I don't think that kinda thing's a big deal. [09:45] Raido     And as long as you don't     go overboard, it's fine. [09:58] Aharen     Thank you. [10:01] Raido     O-Okay, but could you let go?     C-Class is starting. [10:07] Aharen     Mm. [10:09] Teacher     Now, if you'll turn to the next page... [10:11] Teacher     We have the recorded portion     of the past, which we call history, [10:13] Raido     She didn't let go, huh? [10:15] Teacher     and then prehistory,     which predates said records. [10:17] Raido     It's really hard to tell with her... [10:23] Raido     In more ways than one. [10:34] Raido     Aharen-san? [10:36] Raido     Wh-What's the matter? [10:40] Raido     You were calling for me but I didn't notice? [10:43] Raido     Sorry. [10:45] Raido     What was that? [10:48] Raido     Aharen-san's voice is so quiet that I keep     missing things, which is tough... [10:53] Raido     Is there a way around this? [10:59] Sign     Simple!

[12:06] Raido     That's it! [12:10] Raido     When you need to talk to me, [12:12] Raido     write a note on a slip of paper     and throw it my way. [12:19] Sign     Hello [12:21] Raido     Okay, this is working.     Keep it up, Aharen-san. [12:34] Raido     You know what, Aharen-san?     Let's stop. [12:40] Raido     Wait... [12:42] Raido     When she grabbed me,     I could hear her pretty clearly. [12:46] Raido     Was it because she was close? [12:49] Raido     No! [12:50] Raido     What if it was bone conduction?

[13:57] Aharen     You've been trying all kinds     of things for me. Thank you. [14:01] Aharen     But it doesn't look like     anything worked... I'm sorry. [14:06] Raido     No, I should be the one apologizing. [14:09] Raido     You seem to want to talk     to me a lot, Aharen-san. [14:13] Raido     And I feel bad for not always     being able to hear you. [14:19] Aharen     No, it's okay. [14:23] Aharen     Thank you. [14:25] Raido     And I'm sorry for making you push yourself. [14:28] Aharen     Push myself? [14:29] Raido     I mean, you're talking louder     than usual, aren't you?

[15:09] Raido     Talking with Aharen-san has made me     sensitive to even the softest sounds... [15:22] Raido     Does she really need to crawl all over it? [15:25] Raido     Maybe she wants that plushie. [15:28] Raido     Okay! [15:29] Raido     I'll nab one. [15:58] Raido     M-Maybe we should go, Aharen-san... [16:02] Raido     W-We did play a lot, so... [16:05] Raido     Aharen-san? [16:08] Raido     Starting with 500 yen?! [16:11] Raido     She's really set on getting one. [16:13] Raido     But she can't really see from above... [16:21] Raido     A stool? [16:24] Raido     Is Aharen-san a regular around here?

[16:54] Raido     But she got one on her first try.     She's got extra credits left. [16:59] Raido     I wonder where she'll go next... [17:02] Raido     The same one, huh?

[17:25] Raido     Well, now that you've caught a bunch,     why don't we head home, Aharen-san? [17:36] Raido     Does she still want more? [17:38] Raido     Is she after every prize in the joint? [17:40] Raido     What a terror! [17:43] Raido     For me? [17:44] Aharen     You seemed to want it, Raido-kun. [17:48] Raido     She wasn't after them for her, then. [17:52] Aharen     And you did a lot for me today...     I wanted to thank you. [18:00] Raido     Thanks. [18:02] Raido     I wasn't expecting all of them.

[18:29] Raido     Since you've got a bunch, can I have one? [18:32] Raido     No can do. [18:33] Raido     They were gifts, after all. [18:34] Sister     What? [18:50] Raido     This really is too close, right?     It's like she keeps getting even closer. [18:55] Raido     Were you carrying that around     with you, Aharen-san? [19:01] Bag     Melon Bread [19:02] Aharen     Where's your lunch? [19:03] Raido     My mom's on a business trip.     I'll be buying mine for a while. [19:10] Aharen     Say, "Ahhh." [19:12] Raido     Nah, that's okay. [19:16] Raido     I get it already...      So please, one dish at a time. [19:32] Raido     What kind of creature is that? [19:35] Raido     Oh, it's Aharen-san. [19:39] Raido     Are you okay? You feeling ill? [19:49] Raido     Hey... A-Aharen-san? [19:52] Aharen     I woke up early, so I'm tired... [19:56] Raido     Is that all?

[20:17] Raido     I'm impressed you stayed awake. [20:24] Raido     She's asleep with her eyes open! [20:28] Raido     I guess this was inevitable. [20:32] Raido     It's lunch break, Aharen-san. [20:37] Raido     No response... [20:39] Raido     Guess I'll go buy some bread or something. [20:51] Raido     Okay, I get it,     so please stop crawling up me! [21:01] Raido     What's this? [21:05] Raido     Lunch for me? [21:08] Raido     You made this? [21:12] Aharen     I was hoping you'd like it... [21:15] Aharen     so I woke up early     and put a lot of effort into it. [21:18] Aharen     But then I was so tired,     I was a bother again. [21:23] Aharen     I'm sorry. [21:26] Raido     Nah. [21:27] Raido     It's no big deal. [21:30] Raido     If you're tired, you can lean on me. [21:33] Raido     The lunch is good, too. Thanks. [21:38] Aharen     Th-Thank you... [21:42] Aharen     I... think I will a little... [21:46] Raido     G-Go for it. [21:52] Raido     I think this goes way beyond just "leaning." [21:55] Raido     Aharen-san really is impossible to predict. [22:01] Raido     It's so hard to tell with her...     in more ways than one. [23:40] Raido     Aharen-san... uh... [23:44] Raido     You might wanna wake up. Class is starting.
