    All right, thank you for taking care of it.

    One more thing, Katase-san.
[00:07] Mob Coworker 30s; female
    Here's a little something...
[00:09] Mob Coworker 30s; female
    It's for everyone in Product Development.
[00:13] Shiori
    Thank you so much!

    Cookies, cookies...
[00:21] Shiori off script AD
    Sweet and yummy...
[00:31] Shinozaki
    I am exhausted.
[00:33] Shinozaki
    So much to do and learn
    when you're new...
[00:38] Shiori
    Shinozaki-san.
[00:40] Shinozaki
    S-Senpai?!
[00:41] Shiori
    Taking a break?
[00:43] Shinozaki
    Y-Yes.
[00:45] Shinozaki
    Should I have told her first?
[00:48] Shinozaki
    S-Sorry, I'll get right back to work—
[00:53] Shinozaki
    U-Um...
[00:56] Shinozaki
    Senpai?
[01:01] Shiori
    Shinozaki-san.
[01:03] Shinozaki
    Y-Yes?
[01:06] Shiori
    Which do you prefer: bears or bunnies?
[01:12] Shiori
    Which is it? Bears or bunnies?
[01:17] Shinozaki
    Bears or bunnies...?
[01:19] Shiori
    Right. Which is it?
[01:21] Shinozaki
    I-If I had to choose, bears, I think...
[01:24] Shiori
    Understood.
[01:26] Shiori
    Here!
[01:28] Shinozaki
    What is this?
[01:30] Shiori
    A little pick-me-up.
[01:32] Shiori
    People tend to get peckish
    and run-down around this time.
[01:36] Shiori
    Someone from general affairs gave me these,
[01:40] Shiori
    and I'm going to share them
    with everyone else later on...
[01:43] Shiori
    But you get yours early, Shinozaki-san!
[01:49] Shiori
    Just don't tell anyone, okay?
[01:53] Shinozaki
    There's a senpai where I work...
    who is tiny and cute.
[01:59] ---

[03:32] Shiori
    Good morning.
[03:37] Shiori
    I guess I'm first in today.
[03:44] Shiori
    Aw...
[03:48] Shinozaki
    Good morning.
[03:53] Shinozaki
    Senpai never leaves her stuff
    on her desk like that.
[03:58] Shiori
    G-Good morning...
[04:02] Shinozaki
    S-S-S-Senpai?!
[04:04] Shiori
    Yes.
[04:05] Shinozaki
    What are you doing?!
[04:07] Shiori
    I... just...
[04:09] Shiori
    dropped this pen...
[04:11] Shinozaki
    L-Let me get out of your way!
[04:13] Shiori
    I'd appreciate that.
[04:16] Shinozaki
    Senpa—
[04:27] Shinozaki
    Senpai's breasts!
[04:30] Shinozaki
    Sorry! I'm so sorry! Let me move right now!
[04:32] Shiori
    You don't have to panic! It's okay!
[04:40] Akina
    What a lovely morning you two are having.
[04:43] Shinozaki
    I-It's not what you think!
    It's just a coincidence!
[04:48] Shinozaki
    You, too, Hayakawa?!
[04:50] Hayakawa
    I think that dirty thoughts are bad.
[04:53] Shinozaki
    Seriously, it's just a coincidence!
[05:01] Shinozaki
    Senpai, were the documents I submitted okay?
[05:06] Shiori
    Give me a second and I can check.
[05:14] Shiori
    What the—?!
[05:15] Shinozaki
    Did I mess up?
[05:17] Shiori
    These documents...
[05:22] Shiori
    You did a really good job!
[05:26] Shiori
    Good boy!
[05:27] Shinozaki
    U-Um, Senpai...?
[05:30] Shiori
    Very, very good.
[05:33] Shiinozaki
    Senpai...
[05:34] Akina
    My subordinates at work get along very well.
[05:35] Shiori
    You worked hard, huh?
[05:36] Akina
    Honestly...
[05:38] Shinozaki
    It's not that big a deal...
[05:38] Akina
    Would an ordinary pair of
    coworkers get along like that?
[05:40] Shiori
    I never want to miss
    a chance to offer praise!
[05:43] Akina
    It feels a little more significant.
[05:45] Akina
    More than coworkers, it's like they're...
[05:52] Shinozaki
    Scouting a location for a drinking party?
[05:54] Akina
    Right. I was supposed to go,
    but something came up kind of abruptly.
[05:59] Shinozaki
    Sure, I can do that.
[06:02] Akiba
    What a relief. Please do.
[06:05] Akiba
    And since the more opinions, the better,
    why don't you join him, Katase-san?
[06:09] Shiori
    Yay, I'd love to!
[06:16] Shinozaki
    I wonder what kind of place it is.
[06:18] Shiori
    I hope the food is tasty!
[06:22] Shinozaki
    It's supposed to be
    the top floor of this building.
[06:25] Shiori
    This should be fun!
[06:26] Shinozaki
    Since our manager chose it,
    I bet it's pretty fancy.
[06:32] Shiori
    I know what you mean.
    The night view is bound to be pretty.
[06:33] Akina
    Good, smooth sailing so far...
[06:36] Akina
    Now they just need to keep it up
    after they get in the restaurant.
[06:39] Shiori
    I think I might be a little drunk...
[06:43] Shinozaki
    S-Senpai...
[06:48] Shinozaki
    I'm not letting you go home tonight.
[06:51] Shiori
    I wouldn't want to.
[06:56] Shiori
    Shinozaki-san, I...
[06:59] Shinozaki
    Senpai... I...
[07:05] Akina
    That was a close one.
    I almost let my own fantasy fry my brain.
[07:10] Hayakawa
    Manager?
[07:11] Akina
    Hayakawa-san?!
[07:12] Hayakawa
    I thought you said you had
    sudden business to attend to?
[07:22] Hayakawa
    Oh, I get it.
[07:24] Akina
    You're curious, too, aren't you, Hayakawa-san?
[07:26] Akina
    He's your childhood friend, and coworker...
[07:28] Akina
    Wait, no!
[07:32] Akina
    How could I be so cruel?!

    If you need anything, you know who to ask.

[08:09] Akina
    Well, be that as it may,

    since you're here anyway,
    you should join me. Let's go!

    You have reservations, correct?
    We're pleased to have you.
[08:20] Server female; 20s
    Right this way.

    How did I get roped into this?

    Please, have a seat.

    These are our special tables
    that let you enjoy the night view.
[08:36] Server
    I'll be back for your order in a bit.
[08:40] Akina
    How's that? Getting dropped into those
    couples seats must be pretty exciting, right?
[08:45] Akina
    This should bring
    the two of them closer together, and...
[08:48] Shinozaki
    Not a lot of restaurants
    with side-by-side seating.
[08:51] Akina
    He didn't catch on!
[08:52] Shiori
    This menu is huge.
    I don't know where to start.
[08:55] Akina
    She's focused on food!
[08:56] Shinozaki
    I've never eaten somewhere like this before.
[08:59] Shiori
    Neither have I.
[09:01] Shinozaki
    It's what I'd expect from our manager,
    though. He's really got style.
[09:04] Akina
    They're not getting what I was going for,
    but they seem happy, so I guess it's okay?!
[09:08] Hayakawa
    You're really enjoying this, Manager.
[09:10] Akina
    You bet I am!
[09:13] Akina
    You see...
[09:16] Akina
    The thing is...
[09:20] Akina
    Nothing makes me happier than
    cheering on someone else's love life.
[09:27] Hayakawa
    I think our boss might be a weirdo.
[09:30] Akina
    This is rough, though...
[09:32] Akina
    I thought the couples seating
    would get their pulses pounding.
[09:35] Shinozaki
    Oh, check it out, Senpai. Over there!
[09:39] Shiori
    What is it?
[09:41] Shinozaki
    That's our office right there, isn't it?
[09:43] Shiori
    Where?! I want to see!
[10:01] Shiori
    I knew it! It's easier to see from up here!
[10:05] Shinozaki
    S-Senpai... s-so close...
[10:09] Shinozaki
    a-and her....
[10:10] Shinozaki
    b-b-boobs are...!
[10:15] Shiori
    Is everything okay?
[10:17] Shinozaki
    Yes, it's a nice view...
[10:19] Akina
    Smooth move, Katase-san!
[10:21] Shiori
    Are you okay, Shinozaki-san?
    Your face is red.
[10:23] Akina
    Yes, that's the spirit!
[10:25] Shinozaki
    Uh, yes, it's just,
    kinda hot in here, y'know?
[10:25] Akina
    Now, Shinozaki-kun just needs to
    do something to thrill Katase-san...
[10:31] Akina
    That's it... just a little more...
[10:37] Shiori
    That was a big meal.
[10:39] Shinozaki
    Yeah! And it all was great.
[10:43] Shiori
    Well, we've got work tomorrow.
    Maybe we should wrap it up for tonight.
[10:48] Shinozaki
    Oh, man, it's that late already?
[10:51] Shinozaki
    I was hoping we could stay
    a bit longer. That's a shame.
[10:57] Shiori
    You wanted to stay together... longer?
[11:03] Shiori
    Does that mean...?
[11:06] Shinozaki
    Let me walk you to the station.
[11:09] Shiori
    Oh, right! Thank you.
[11:12] Shinozaki
    Everything okay?
[11:13] Shiori
    I-It's fine!
[11:16] Shiori
    What was I thinking...?
[11:21] Shinozaki
    Um, Senpai?
[11:22] Shiori
    Uh, well.. it's... um...
[11:28] Akina
    I knew you had it in you, Shinozaki-kun!

    Whoa, Manager!
    Please don't turn to sugar grains on me!

    Thank you for walking me to the station!

    Hey, good morning.
[11:58] Hayakawa

[12:01] Hayakawa
    The weather didn't mention rain, did it?

[12:13] Hayakawa
    I see.
[12:27] Shinozaki
    Thank goodness I brought an umbrella...
[12:37] Shinozaki
    Senpai... Did she not bring an umbrella?
[12:42] Shinozaki
    Excuse me!
[12:45] Shinozaki
    Would you like to share mine?
[12:52] Shiori
    Yes!
[13:01] Shinozaki
    Sharing an umbrella with Senpai...
[13:04] Shinozaki
    Man, this really is lucky!
[13:07] Shinozaki
    B-But... I'm so nervous,
    I've barely said anything...
[13:16] Shiori
    Your shoulder is getting wet, Shinozaki-san.
[13:19] Shinozaki
    Oh, I'm sorry if I worried you!
[13:25] Shinozaki
    W-Well...
[13:27] Shinozaki
    h-how did you end up as my senpai, anyway?
[13:30] Shiori
    By working at our company first.
[13:31] Shinozaki
    That makes sense!
[13:33] Shinozaki
    What kind of animals do you like, Senpai?!
[13:35] Shiori
    Cats!
[13:36] Shinozaki
    I knew that!
[13:38] Shinozaki
    This is awful! I suck at talking!
[13:41] Shiori
    Shinozaki-san! You don't have to
    force yourself to talk.
[13:45] Shiori
    I'm enjoying walking home together as it is.
[13:49] Shinozaki
    R-Right...
[13:51] Shiori
    Come to think of it, you always speak up
    when a meeting gets quiet, don't you?
[13:58] Shinozaki
    Yeah. I start to panic
    when no one is talking...
[14:02] Shiori
    It's even more nerve-racking
    with the section chief in attendance.
[14:05] Shinozaki
    He looks so scary...
    I know he's actually nice, though.

    I'd hate for it to cause trouble.
[14:19] Shiori
    You don't need to be so tense about it.
[14:21] Shiori
    Everybody learns how these
    things work as time goes on.
[14:25] Shiori
    Besides, the chief has mentioned
    how the way you ask a lot of questions
[14:29] Shiori
    makes it easier for everyone else to speak up.
[14:33] Shinozaki
    Th-That's great to hear.
[14:38] Shinozaki
    Oh, sorry, I wanted to stop by the bookstore
    before heading home, so I'll be going now.
[14:43] Shinozaki
    In that case, if you want,
    you can take my umbrella.
[14:51] Shiori
    I had a great time talking!
[14:54] Shiori
    Let's give it our all at work again
    tomorrow, Shinozaki-san.
[14:58] Shiori
    See you then!
[15:03] Shinozaki
    She had one all along?!
[15:11] Shiori
    Huh?
[15:13] Shiori
    Is Shinozaki-san taking the day off?
[15:16] Akina
    He's sick, apparently. Called in this morning.
[15:20] Shiori
    Oh, I see...
[15:22] (Flashback) Shiori
    Your shoulder is getting wet, Shinozaki-kun.
[15:25] (Flashback) Shinozaki
    Oh, I'm sorry!
[15:29] Akina
    Want to check up on him?
[15:30] Shiori
    Wh-Why would I do that?!
[15:32] Akina
    Well, he is your only kohai, after all!
[15:35] Akina
    He's mentioned that living
    on his own is proving to be a handful.
[15:49] Shinozaki
    Still not going down...
[15:54] Shinozaki
    Well, it's my own fault for going
    into shock in the middle of the rain.
[16:05] Shinozaki
    Coming...
[16:09] Shiori
    How are you feeling, Shinozaki-san?
[16:12] Shinozaki
    Senpai?! You went out of your way to visit me?!
[16:15] Shiori
    Oh, come now.
[16:16] Shiori
    I was just in the neighborhood.
[16:19] Shiori
    And you've been out
    for three days, so I was worried,
[16:22] Shiori
    and I heard living on your own
    was rough for you,
[16:25] Shiori
    so I brought some supplies.
[16:27] Shinozaki
    Thank you so much. That is really thoughtful...
[16:38] Shiori
    How about I make something for you?
[16:50] Shinozaki
    What is even happening...?
[16:53] Shinozaki
    I feel crazy-happy.
[16:56] Shiori
    There you go.
[16:58] Shinozaki
    Thank you for the food.
[17:00] Shinozaki
    It's good!
[17:01] Shiori
    I'm glad you like it!
[17:03] Shiori
    I'll tidy up and do some laundry, too.
[17:06] Shinozaki
    Thanks again.
[17:08] Shinozaki
    Oh, wait, my underwear!
[17:11] Shinozaki
    I really appreciate you doing all this.
[17:14] Shiori
    Oh, it's all right.
[17:16] Shiori
    Despite appearances,
    I'm more the big sister type.
[17:21] Shinozaki
    I am so incredibly, crazily happy right now,
[17:27] Shinozaki
    I don't even want to get better anymore.
[17:33] Shiori
    Well, sorry to intrude. Make sure to stay
    warm, and get some more rest, okay?
[17:38] Shinozaki
    You're a real life-saver, Senpai.
[17:42] Shinozaki
    Come to think of it, what were
    in you in the neighborhood for?
[17:44] Shiori
    To see a movie with a friend.
[17:46] Shinozaki
    Huh? But the theater is in the opposite
    direction of my house from the station...
[17:53] Shiori
    W-Well, uh,
[17:55] Shiori
    I'm running short on time, so...
[18:02] Shiori
    I messed up...
[18:05] Shiori
    Maybe I got too excited,
    because he's my only kohai.
[18:11] Shiori
    I guess I'll buy something microwaveable...
SIGN    Simple, Delicious
    Recipe Book!
    What to make when someone's sick
[18:26] Shiori
    Maybe something to cook, too.
[18:30] Akina
    Mission accomplished!
[18:35] Hayakawa
    A present for Senpai?
[18:37] Shinozaki
    Well, it's less a present and more...
[18:39] Shinozaki
    A token of my thanks?
[18:41] Hayakawa
    Thanks for what?
[18:43] Shinozaki
    She came over and looked
    after me when I was sick.
[18:46] Shinozaki
    She even cooked for me.
[18:48] Shinozaki
    Maybe I should get something
    unobtrusive, like candy.
[18:52] Hayakawa
    Are you stupid?!
[18:54] Hayakawa
    Why would you give someone who went to your
    house and cooked for you when you were sick
[18:57] Hayakawa
    the same gift you'd pass onto
    a business partner for the Bon holiday?!
[19:01] Shinozaki
    A-A business Bon gift?!
[19:04] Hayakawa
    Well? Was the food good?
[19:06] Shinozaki
    Yeah, very much so.

    I-It was downright delicious....
[19:11] Shinozaki
    And I think she likes to cook.
[19:13] Hayakawa
    Then get her an apron and say,
    "Please come and cook for me again!"
[19:18] Shinozaki
    Where did that come from?!
[19:20] Shinozaki
    Isn't it considered rude to give
    non-consumables since they take up space?
[19:23] Hayakawa
    I say you need to give her something
    that will remind her of you.
[19:26] Shinozaki
    Remind her of what, exactly?!
[19:32] Shinozaki
    What should I do?
[19:34] Shinozaki
    I ended up actually buying one
    on impulse, but I think...
[19:39] Shinozaki
    This might be a lot harder to
    casually hand to her!

    Maybe I should go with candy after all.
[19:46] Shiori
    Good morning.
[19:48] Shinozaki
    G-G-Good morning, Senpai!
[19:51] Shiori
    What's wrong? You seem anxious.
[19:54] Shinozaki
    Well, it's nothing, really...
[19:58] Shinozaki
    Th-The gift! I need to give it to her!
[20:02] Shinozaki
    But what if she thinks it's too much?
[20:07] Shinozaki
    Then again, I don't think
    Senpai would feel that way...
[20:11] Shinozaki
    Excuse me!
[20:15] Shinozaki
    Thank you very much for the other day.
[20:18] Shinozaki
    I got this for you...
[20:26] Shinozaki
    Um... I'm sorry if you don't like it...
[20:30] Shiori
    An apron?
[20:33] Shinozaki
    It's too much, isn't it?!
[20:39] Shiori
    Thank you so much!
[20:42] Shinozaki
    Thank goodness she seems to like it...
[20:45] Shinozaki
    W-Well...
[20:49] Shinozaki
    I'm sure you'll look nice in it,
[20:52] Shinozaki
    so I hope you'll use it at home.
[20:55] Shiori
    You wouldn't mind me
    coming by your house again?
[20:59] Shinozaki
    I-I meant at your own house, not mine...
[21:03] Shiori
    Oh, right! That makes sense. Sorry about that.
[21:06] Shiori
    That was such a silly assumption to make...
[21:11] Shinozaki
    Though, if you wouldn't mind, Senpai...
[21:15] Shinozaki
    I'd be really glad to have you over again.
[21:21] Shiori
    Well... Someday might be nice.
[21:25] Shinozaki
    Right, well... whenever is good for you.
[21:27] Akina
    You two want the afternoon off?
[21:30] Both
    Manager, give it a rest!
[21:46] ---
    Bleary-eyed and not fully awake from a dream
[21:50] ---
    I still can't bring myself
    to drink that bitter coffee
[21:55] ---
    So I sneakily toss in
    two pinches of a sweet secret
[21:59] ---
    And let it slowly spread throughout
[22:05] ---
    There's a local bakery
    that's only open sometimes
[22:08] ---
    Where I once had some toast that glittered
[22:14] ---
    What is it that makes it so satisfying?
[22:18] ---
    Almost like magic
[22:22] ---
    I find myself thinking about that kind of thing
[22:27] ---
    How the small things can be the most precious
[22:33] ---
    Deep inside my heart
[22:37] ---
    It's ever so bittersweet
[22:43] ---
    "Just being around you is enough"
[22:47] ---
    Becomes my mantra
[22:51] ---
    Baby like sugar
[23:00] ---
    Baby you're the sugar
