**[00:05] ---**
Thank you!
**[00:08] ---**
Hey, hey. Did Yoshida-cchi reply?
**[00:12] ---**
About me coming over after work!
**[00:14] ---**
Let me see.
**[00:19] ---**
What does it say?
**[00:21] ---**
"Sure, but Asami's coming over too much."
**[00:24] ---**
Well, it's summer break! And we're soul mates!
**[00:28] ---**
Right?
**[00:30] ---**
Okay, I guess I'll go stock the shelves.
**[00:35] ---**
There it is again.
**[00:38] ---**
I see that car parked here a lot lately.
**[00:41] ---**
They never come in to buy anything.
**[00:48] ---**
It left.
**[00:50] ---**
I wonder what their deal is.
**[00:52] ---**
Maybe they're just bored?
**[02:27] ---**
Wow, not this type of problem again.
**[02:31] ---**
What?
**[02:31] ---**
Look, look.
***SIGN*** "Yearning"
**[02:34] ---**
"Choose from the following the reason
why Toyotaro said the underlined phrase (A)."
**[02:42] ---**
It looks normal to me.
**[02:44] ---**
Yeah, but it annoys me.
**[02:47] ---**
How's the guy who made this problem
supposed to know what the character was thinking?
**[02:53] ---**
The author's probably saying,
"No, that wasn't what I meant at all, dude."
**[02:57] ---**
I don't think he's saying
those words specifically, but maybe.
**[03:01] ---**
Right?
**[03:02] ---**
Man, forget this stuff.
**[03:06] ---**
But I have to study for my exams.
**[03:09] ---**
My promising future depends on them.
**[03:17] (Flashback) ---**
Yoshida-san, living with you...
I finally...
**[03:22] (Flashback) ---**
I-I can finally think about the future.
**[03:28] (Flashback) ---**
The future?
**[03:29] (Flashback) ---**
I don't have to think about where
I'm running to. But where I'm going.
**[03:35] (Flashback) ---**
Sayu...
**[03:37] (Flashback) ---**
So...
**[03:41] (Flashback) ---**
Will you be with me just a little longer?
**[03:49] ---**
*"My future," huh?*
**[03:53] ---**
* Going back home, to Hokkaido,*
* where my parents are...*
**[04:00] ---**
*And then what?*
**[04:04] ---**
What's wrong?
**[04:06] ---**
You look like your soul fell
out of your body.
**[04:08] ---**
U-Uh, no...
**[04:10] ---**
I was thinking of what to have for dinner.
**[04:13] ---**
Oh, like a housewife?
**[04:15] ---**
It's tough trying to come up
with a meal every day.
**[04:21] ---**
I know just the thing!
**[04:23] ---**
There's this boxed lunch we get a ton of
at our store during exam season.
**[04:27] ---**
Do you know it?
**[04:39] ---**
Sayu-chan again.
**[04:45] ---**
I'm jealous. I don't even have his number.
**[04:50] ---**
Yoshida-kun?
**[04:52] ---**
What?
**[04:54] ---**
I had a question about the documents
you just sent over.
**[05:00] ---**
Can you explain this part
a little more in depth?
**[05:04] ---**
Okay.
**[05:08] ---**
Try to have it ready
for the afternoon meeting.
**[05:10] ---**
Okay.
**[05:11] ---**
Thanks!
**[05:25] ---**
Mishima-san?
**[05:27] ---**
Gotou-san, would you like
to eat lunch with me?
**[05:33] ---**
Huh?
**[05:38] ---**
Are those Chinese noodles any good?
**[05:40] ---**
I don't know. I've never had them.
**[05:44] ---**
You haven't, huh?
**[05:49] ---**
And?
**[05:51] ---**
You wanted to talk about something, right?
**[05:58] ---**
What do you think about Yoshida-senpai lately?
**[06:02] ---**
Yoshida-kun? How do you mean?
**[06:08] ---**
What is it?
**[06:09] ---**
You looked so serious.
**[06:12] ---**
Did I?
**[06:13] ---**
You did.
**[06:18] ---**
His appearance has been a lot neater.
**[06:21] ---**
He's not so pale anymore, either.
**[06:22] ---**
And he's leaving right at closing time.
**[06:25] ---**
The rumors say he got a girlfriend.
**[06:28] ---**
Um...
**[06:30] ---**
You know, don't you, Gotou-san?
**[06:32] ---**
Know what?
**[06:34] ---**
That he has... well, not a girlfriend, but...
**[06:39] ---**
Sayu-chan, right?
**[06:43] ---**
So you did know.
**[06:45] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:47] ---**
We've talked.
**[06:50] ---**
She's a nice girl.
**[06:52] ---**
You're not worried?
**[06:55] ---**
She might take him.
**[06:59] ---**
Sayu-chan would?
**[07:03] ---**
What is it?
**[07:05] ---**
No, if it happens, it happens.
**[07:09] ---**
You can't control other people's feelings,
no matter how much you want to.
**[07:14] ---**
Still...
**[07:15] ---**
Even if I were to interfere somehow
**[07:17] ---**
and get the result I wanted
in a way that wasn't natural,
**[07:21] ---**
how long would it last?
**[07:24] ---**
W-Well...
**[07:28] ---**
Does that mean there's no point in trying?
**[07:32] ---**
I won't say that.
**[07:34] ---**
But if you try to force things
to be something they shouldn't be,
**[07:37] ---**
when time passes,
they'll just go back to how they were.
**[07:43] ---**
What?
**[07:45] ---**
You're just scared.
**[07:49] ---**
Because even if you work hard
to get what you want, you may lose it someday.
**[07:54] ---**
So you're just saying to wait
for things to work out, right?
**[07:58] ---**
Mishima-san...
**[07:59] ---**
I...
**[08:00] ---**
I'm much more scared of losing the things
I could've had because I didn't do anything!
**[08:06] ---**
Mishima-san!
**[08:13] ---**
You're too loud.
**[08:16] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[08:19] ---**
Well, until we know exactly
how he feels about Sayu-chan,
**[08:24] ---**
isn't it better just to wait?
**[08:28] ---**
You're talking as if this doesn't involve you.
**[08:32] ---**
It doesn't.
**[08:33] ---**
But you love Yoshida-senpai, don't you?
**[08:40] ---**
I do.
**[08:43] ---**
That's why I think anything I did
wouldn't matter.
**[08:50] ---**
What's wrong with this woman?
**[08:54] ---**
You're so cute, Mishima-san.
**[08:58] ---**
And you're creepy, Gotou-san!
***SIGN*** Today's dinner is something special!
**[09:17] ---**
Yoshida-senpai?
**[09:18] ---**
Mishima? What's up? Was there a problem?
**[09:21] ---**
Want to go see a movie?
**[09:22] ---**
Huh?
**[09:24] ---**
You don't have to look that annoyed.
**[09:27] ---**
No, I didn't mean that.
**[09:30] ---**
But she's making something special
for dinner tonight.
**[09:34] ---**
Okay, fine, I guess...
**[09:38] ---**
Give me your contact info instead.
**[09:44] ---**
Why?
**[09:48] ---**
You've given it to Sayu-chan
and Gotou-san, right?
**[09:51] ---**
I did, yeah...
**[09:53] ---**
So you should be able to give it to me,
since we're co-workers.
**[09:57] ---**
What?
**[09:59] ---**
Let me see me your phone.
I'll give you mine, too.
**[10:07] ---**
Here.
**[10:10] ---**
But you know...
**[10:11] ---**
Even if I do give you my contact info,
what will you talk to me about?
**[10:17] ---**
I can understand wanting it
from someone who talked a lot,
**[10:22] ---**
but I don't send messages to people
I don't need to talk to.
**[10:26] ---**
And even if you send me something,
I can't send you a good answer.
**[10:31] ---**
Wait, what the heck?
**[10:34] ---**
So basically...
**[10:37] ---**
You're saying that you're
not attractive enough to be worth
**[10:41] ---**
giving your contact info
to unless there's a special reason?
**[10:45] ---**
W-Well, something like that.
**[10:51] ---**
Really...
**[10:53] ---**
It's not right to decide everything
by your own standards.
**[10:59] ---**
You pretend to care about others,
**[11:02] ---**
but in the end, you always put the way
you see things over everything else!
**[11:06] ---**
And then, even though you're only doing
the things you want to,
**[11:11] ---**
you convince yourself
you're doing it for their sake!
**[11:13] ---**
It's a bad habit of yours!
**[11:17] ---**
It may be good enough for you...
**[11:23] ---**
But how am I supposed to feel,
after I already grabbed the phone from your hand?
**[11:29] ---**
How do you feel?
**[11:34] ---**
I'm telling you...
**[11:36] ---**
I'm in love with you, Yoshida-senpai!
**[11:46] ---**
A little, anyway.
**[11:47] ---**
"A little," huh?
**[11:54] ---**
Anyway, I want your contact info.
**[11:59] ---**
So I forced you to give it to me.
**[12:03] ---**
Is that good enough?
**[12:05] ---**
Well, if you say so, I guess it has to be.
***SIGN*** Can I ask you to a movie again sometime?
***SIGN*** Sure.
**[12:29] ---**
You're like a little kid.
You try to do what people tell you.
**[12:37] ---**
I like that about you.
**[12:53] ---**
So you meant katsudon?
**[12:55] ---**
You know how Asami's taking exams, right?
**[12:58] ---**
She told me that every year
during exam season,
**[13:02] ---**
the convenience store
stocks a bunch of katsudon.
**[13:06] ---**
Around February?
**[13:07] ---**
Yes. To win *(katsu)* at your exams, supposedly.
**[13:11] ---**
That's a really old joke.
**[13:13] ---**
I see.
**[13:15] ---**
I just heard it for the first time,
so I laughed really hard.
**[13:19] ---**
Let's eat.
**[13:25] ---**
So, what am I supposed to be winning at?
**[13:28] ---**
I dunno. Winning over yourself?
**[13:33] ---**
They say you're your
own worst enemy, after all.
**[13:40] ---**
Yum!
**[13:42] ---**
*I'm my own worst enemy, huh?*
**[13:48] ---**
*I've made a lot of choices to help Sayu.*
**[13:53] ---**
*At least, I thought I had, but...*
**[13:57] ---**
* But I was just doing the things*
* I wanted to do?*
**[14:02] ---**
Yoshida-san?
**[14:05] ---**
Is it not good?
**[14:06] ---**
No, it's good, but...
**[14:09] ---**
But?
**[14:11] ---**
It feels really weird to eat katsudon
in the middle of summer?
**[14:15] ---**
I know. It's really hot.
**[14:18] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:18] ---**
Right?
**[14:30] ---**
You seem more into it than usual.
**[14:34] ---**
I've been busy with work and haven't managed
to clean out all the little corners.
**[14:39] ---**
I see.
**[14:41] ---**
I'll help, too.
**[14:47] ---**
No, no. You can just relax.
**[14:50] ---**
But the futon's heavy, right?
**[14:52] ---**
Yeah, but...
**[14:54] ---**
That's not the issue!
**[14:58] ---**
The chores are my job!
**[15:00] ---**
I can help a little, right?
**[15:03] ---**
It's my day off, and I'm bored.
**[15:05] ---**
No!
**[15:16] ---**
S-Sorry!
**[15:19] ---**
Sayu...
**[15:20] ---**
Um, what?
**[15:23] ---**
The rag.
**[15:27] ---**
I-I'm sorry, really!
**[15:28] ---**
Take it off now, and I'll wash it!
**[15:30] ---**
Got it, got it.
**[15:35] ---**
You should take a shower, too.
**[15:37] ---**
Your hair's a mess.
**[15:39] ---**
Seriously?
**[15:40] ---**
Seriously.
**[15:42] ---**
I see. Okay, I'll do that then.
**[15:55] ---**
Yoshida-san, should I not touch
what's in the box in the closet?
**[16:01] ---**
No, it's fine.
**[16:03] ---**
Whew!
***SIGN*** All this crap is yours, and it's taking up space. If you don't need it, throw it out! -Mom
***SIGN*** Graduation Album
**[16:30] ---**
Yoshida-san in high school.
**[16:48] ---**
Oh, that.
**[16:51] ---**
Your girlfriend?
**[16:53] ---**
I guess.
**[16:55] ---**
You had a girlfriend, huh?
**[16:57] ---**
What, is that weird?
**[17:00] ---**
No, that's not it.
**[17:04] ---**
But like...
**[17:06] ---**
You never talked about anything like that.
**[17:10] ---**
She's pretty.
**[17:12] ---**
She was.
**[17:14] ---**
She was the senpai everybody admired.
**[17:17] ---**
"Senpai"...
**[17:18] ---**
Gotou-san, your girlfriend...
**[17:21] ---**
You really like pretty older girls, huh?
**[17:24] ---**
Quiet.
**[17:25] ---**
Why are you blushing? I'm just teasing you.
**[17:28] ---**
Why do I have to be teased by a little kid?!
**[17:32] ---**
True. Sorry.
**[17:39] ---**
I kind of remembered something.
**[17:45] ---**
She told me I was clingy once.
**[17:50] ---**
Clingy?
**[17:52] ---**
She said she didn't want somebody
who cared about her so much.
**[17:58] ---**
You were that into her, Yoshida-san?
**[18:02] ---**
Well, we were dating.
**[18:05] ---**
Isn't it natural to care about someone?
**[18:09] ---**
If you really love someone,
you want them to be smiling all the time.
**[18:14] ---**
To be happy.
**[18:16] ---**
You want to make them happy yourself
if you can, right?
**[18:20] ---**
Because, well, you're giving
the relationship your all, right?
**[18:29] ---**
Then...
**[18:31] ---**
What about me?
**[18:39] ---**
Y-Yoshida-san, no smoking!
**[18:42] ---**
Oh, right. The smell gets everywhere.
**[18:57] ---**
I'm going on break.
**[19:11] ---**
It's back.
**[19:13] ---**
Look. The luxury car.
**[19:17] ---**
You're right.
**[19:20] ---**
Huh? Is it stopping to buy something?
**[19:25] ---**
They've got a driver?
**[19:36] ---**
What's wrong?
**[19:39] ---**
Do you know them?
**[19:45] ---**
Someone you don't want to see?
**[19:54] ---**
Stay down. Get into the office.
**[19:57] ---**
Go.
**[20:13] ---**
Sorry to interrupt your work.
**[20:17] ---**
Here's my card.
***SIGN*** CEO & President Ogiwara Issa
**[20:21] ---**
Huh...
**[20:23] ---**
I'm looking for a girl named Ogiwara Sayu.
**[20:27] ---**
Does she work here?
**[20:29] ---**
Never heard that name.
**[20:32] ---**
Sure you don't mean a different store?
**[20:34] ---**
Where's your manager?
**[20:36] ---**
Not in today.
**[20:37] ---**
If you want to leave
a message, I can relay it.
**[20:44] ---**
I see.
**[20:47] ---**
Your brother?
**[20:49] ---**
Your brother's here?
**[20:51] ---**
He's here looking for you?
**[20:54] ---**
I think so.
**[21:03] ---**
*My brother's here.*
**[21:06] ---**
*He's been looking for me.*
**[21:08] ---**
* But I'm still not ready*
* to go back to that house.*
**[21:13] ---**
You can come out now.
**[21:15] ---**
Um, thank you for helping me.
**[21:19] ---**
Nah, I just don't like guys like that.
**[21:22] ---**
Like what?
**[21:26] ---**
People with power, who think they can use
that power to control other people's lives?
**[21:33] ---**
But he's serious.
**[21:36] ---**
You might not be able to
keep running for much longer.
**[21:40] ---**
You're right.
**[21:45] ---**
* Somehow I thought I'd get to decide*
* when I went home.*
**[21:51] ---**
*But...*
**[21:55] ---**
*That's not how it is.*
**[21:57] ---**
*That's not how it is at all!*
