[00:01] Shinako
    Good evening.
[00:03] Shinako
    I guess I'm here after all.
[00:06] Shinako
    Sorry to barge in so late.
[00:07] Kozuke
    Not at all. Have a seat.
[00:10] Fukuda
    You can sit here.
[00:12] Fukuda
    I'll bring a chair.
[00:19] Rikuo
    Is the school kid all right?
[00:23] Shinako
    I'm not sure.
[00:25] Shinako
    Is this photo from our first year?
[00:27] Shinako
    That takes me back.
[00:34] Fukuda
    It's practically a Shinako photo book.
[00:41] Shinako
    I never knew you took this picture.
[00:45] Rikuo
    It's not a bad shot, though, is it?
[00:49] Kozuke
    Well, why don't we make a toast?
SIGN    Sing "Yesterday" for Me
[01:14] Rikuo
    Yes! I win!
[01:18] Kozuke
    I'll go make some coffee.
[01:20] Kozuke
    Could you help out, Uozumi-san?
[01:23] Rikuo
    Sure.
[01:24] Fukuda
    All right, let's go with this one.
[01:27] Kozuke
    Here you go.
[01:30] Kozuke
    It's the necklace you gave me.
[01:32] Kozuke
    I wrapped it up again.
[01:34] Kozuke
    Give it to her.
[01:36] Rikuo
    No, but...
[01:39] Kozuke
    You didn't get anything for her, did you?
[01:44] Kozuke
    You got it from me,
    so it's not bad luck anymore.
[01:48] Kozuke
    Oh, but don't tell her that.
[01:53] Kozuke
    Break a leg.
[02:00] Shinako
    Thanks for having me.
[02:02] Kozuke
    Happy early New Year.
[02:05] ---
    Thanks.
[02:05] Kozuke
    Here's a gift.
[02:07] Kozuke
    Have it when you get home.
[02:10] Fukuda
    Stop overthinking it and just go for it.
[02:10] Fukuda
    I couldn't, after I showed up unannounced...
[02:13] ---
    It's fine. I don't know if you'll like it,
[02:13] Fukuda
    I'll pick up your bones for you.
[02:16] ---
    but it's yours.
[02:17] Shinako
    Thank you.
[02:18] Shinako
    Sorry for staying so late.
[02:21] Kozuke
    Not at all.
[02:22] Kozuke
    Taka-chan enjoyed having you, too.
[02:24] Kozuke
    You should come by again.
[02:25] Shinako
    Okay.
[02:36] Haru
    I'm back.
[02:39] Haru
    Kuma-san?
[02:40] Izawa
    Bye.
[02:46] Haru
    You're leaving?
[02:48] Izawa
    Yeah. I'll be back.
[03:11] Haru
    Are you all right?
[03:18] Kyouko
    Sorry, I was thinking about something.
[03:23] Haru
    About Kuma-san?
[03:25] Haru
    He seemed a bit weird just now.
[03:30] Kyouko
    His family's having some problems.
[03:33] Kyouko
    He's going home to Kyushu.
[03:37] Haru
    Is he not coming here anymore?
[03:39] Kyouko
    I don't know.
[03:41] Kyouko
    He got accepted into grad school,
    but he doesn't think he can go.
[03:45] Haru
    Oh, no.
[03:46] Kyouko
    There's nothing you can do about it.
[03:51] Kyouko
    Growing up means
[03:53] ---
    you end up with things you need
    to protect. That's just how it is.
[04:03] Haru
    There's no way she's happy with this.
[04:35] Shinako
    I wonder if it'll snow before the year ends.
[04:37] Rikuo
    Hard to say.
[04:39] Rikuo
    It usually snows around February in Tokyo.
[04:41] Shinako
    I like snow, but I don't like the cold.
[04:46] Rikuo
    I prefer cold over hot, though.
[04:51] Shinako
    The year's almost over already.
[04:54] Shinako
    This is my favorite time of the year.
[04:58] Rikuo
    Why?
[05:00] Shinako
    It's the end of the year,
    and all kinds of things get reset.
[05:07] Shinako
    I prefer New Year's Eve
    over New Year's Day, too.
[05:09] Shinako
    It's kind of boring once it's the new year.
[05:12] Rikuo
    Huh.
[05:13] Rikuo
    I had to clean up around the house
    and help with renovations.
[05:17] Rikuo
    The end of the year always sucked for me.
[05:19] Shinako
    Really?
[05:24] Shinako
    Thanks for walking me home.
[05:26] Rikuo
    Sure.
[05:28] Shinako
    See you.
[05:29] Rikuo
    Yeah.
[05:37] Rikuo
    Hey, Shinako...
[05:40] Shinako
    Yes?
[05:50] Rikuo
    Um...
[05:54] Rikuo
    Hold your hand out.
[05:59] Rikuo
    For you.
[06:01] Shinako
    But I don't have anything for you.
[06:05] Rikuo
    It's fine.
[06:06] Rikuo
    Don't worry about it.
[06:07] Rikuo
    I didn't know what you might like,
[06:10] Rikuo
    so I'm not sure if you'll like it...
[06:14] Shinako
    Can I open it?
[06:17] Rikuo
    Go ahead.
[06:21] Shinako
    Oh, how cute!
[06:23] Shinako
    It's a moonstone.
[06:25] Shinako
    Thanks. I really like it.
[06:27] Rikuo
    Sure.
[06:29] Shinako
    You chose it for me?
[06:41] Rikuo
    Sorry.
[06:43] Rikuo
    Actually, my coworker sold it
    to me after he got dumped.
[06:48] Rikuo
    That wouldn't make you feel good, would it?
[06:55] ---
    Huh?
[06:56] Shinako
    Nothing.
[06:57] Shinako
    That sounds like you, though.
[07:00] Shinako
    I couldn't picture you choosing accessories.
[07:04] Shinako
    Besides, you were being really
    awkward when you gave me this.
[07:10] Shinako
    Thanks, I'll keep this.
[07:13] Rikuo
    That was weird, huh?
[07:16] Rikuo
    I've never given a girl a gift before, so...
[07:31] Rikuo
    Okay, I'll see you next year, I guess.
[07:35] Shinako
    Uozumi-kun...
[07:37] Shinako
    I'm going to call off going back to Kanazawa.
[07:42] Shinako
    So...
[07:44] ---
    why don't we greet the new year together?
[07:51] Rikuo
    The night I confessed to
    Shinako and got rejected,
[07:55] ---
    I fell spectacularly on my bike.
[07:58] Rikuo
    I think that was right here.
[08:05] Rikuo
    Life sure throws some curveballs...
[08:31] Haru
    Merry Christmas.
[08:33] Rikuo
    What are you doing?
[08:36] Haru
    I brought you our new bagels.
[08:42] Rikuo
    How long have you been here?
[08:45] Rikuo
    Come on. Get up.
[08:48] Rikuo
    You're going to catch a chill sitting there.
[09:03] Haru
    I finally got to see you.
[09:06] Haru
    I've missed you all this time.
SIGN    Sing "Yesterday" for Me
[09:21] Rikuo
    Get off me!
[09:24] Haru
    Aww.
[09:30] Rikuo
    She was cold to the touch.
[09:36] Rikuo
    How long has she been here?
[09:42] Rikuo
    Just come inside.
[09:44] Rikuo
    I'll give you something warm.
[09:46] Haru
    Yay!
[09:54] Haru
    It's Rikuo's room.
[09:56] Rikuo
    I know, it's messy.
[09:58] Rikuo
    Find a spot to sit down.
[10:02] Haru
    It's an artifact from the last century!
[10:04] Rikuo
    Well, I still use it.
[10:06] Rikuo
    Don't touch it.
[10:12] Rikuo
    Sit down and stay put.
[10:19] Haru
    Thanks.
[10:27] Rikuo
    Look... you need to stop doing this.
[10:34] Haru
    I know.
[10:36] Haru
    But I can't see you otherwise.
[10:42] Haru
    I don't get to see you
    unless I make an effort.
[10:47] Haru
    I know that's clingy.
[10:50] Haru
    But it's more fun than just waiting.
[10:55] Haru
    So don't worry about it too much.
[10:58] Haru
    I'm doing it because I like you,
    so cut me some slack.
[11:03] Haru
    I got to see your face,
    and I got to see your room.
[11:06] Haru
    That's good enough for me.
[11:11] Haru
    I'll go home once I finish this.
[11:43] Rikuo
    Yeah... Yeah.
[11:46] Rikuo
    I'll stay here for New Year's.
[11:50] Rikuo
    No, I'll be back sometime,
    just not for New Year's.
[11:55] Rikuo
    Yeah.
[11:56] Rikuo
    Say hi to my brother for me.
[12:12] Shinako
    I think that should do it.
[12:25] Shinako
    I told my parents I wouldn't
    go home this year,
[12:29] ---
    but Uozumi-kun hasn't contacted me at all.
[12:32] Shinako
    Maybe I should go home.
[12:36] ---
    Why...
[12:39] Shinako
    Why did I even say what I did?
[12:43] Shinako
    I couldn't help but be happy when he said
    it was the first time he gave a girl a gift.
[12:49] Shinako
    I'm not regretting it or anything,
    but what should I do?
[12:54] Shinako
    Well, I didn't mean anything by it, though.
[12:59] Shinako
    I'm sure he knows that, too.
[13:04] Shinako
    And he hasn't called me since then.
[13:10] Shinako
    Why hasn't he?
[13:22] Shinako
    Yes, hello?
[13:25] Shinako
    Uozumi-kun?
[13:26] Rikuo
    Oh, good.
[13:28] Rikuo
    I called you, but you weren't home.
[13:31] Rikuo
    I thought maybe you'd left for Kanazawa.
[13:37] Rikuo
    Wh-What?
[13:39] Shinako
    Nothing. I'm just a bit disappointed.
[13:43] Rikuo
    Sorry for not calling you.
[13:45] Rikuo
    I've been busy with end-of-the-year work.
[13:48] Rikuo
    You haven't called me either, though.
[13:54] Shinako
    Well, yeah.
[13:58] Rikuo
    So, uh...
[14:02] Rikuo
    What should we do?
[14:05] ---
    Yeah...
[14:10] Shinako
    What should we do?
SIGN    Soba
[14:22] A
    You're pretty good at this.
[14:25] Haru
    I clean every day at work, too.
[14:28] Haru
    Well, now that that's done,
    maybe I'll mop the floor.
[14:36] A
    Haru.
[14:38] Haru
    Yeah?
[14:40] A
    Let's go buy ingredients for New Year's soba.
[14:45] Haru
    Okay.
[14:50] Shinako
    Do you come here often?
[14:51] Rikuo
    This place mostly serves booze.
[14:54] Rikuo
    I come here with my work buddies.
[14:57] Rikuo
    They're supposed to be
    open until morning tonight,
[15:00] ---
    so I figured we'd have plenty of time here.
[15:02] Shinako
    Yeah?
[15:08] Rikuo
    Sounds like it's the new year.
[15:13] Shinako
    Happy New Year.
[15:25] Shinako
    It's so cold.
[15:27] Rikuo
    Yeah.
[15:29] Shinako
    I haven't had so much
    to drink in a long time.
[15:32] Rikuo
    Me, neither.
[15:34] Rikuo
    We never got to drink together,
    even when we were in college.
[15:39] Shinako
    You're right, come to think of it.
[15:42] Shinako
    We've eaten together a lot, though.
[15:46] Rikuo
    You hold your liquor well, huh?
[15:51] Shinako
    Y-You think so?
[16:04] Shinako
    Want to have some coffee to help sober up?
[16:07] Rikuo
    I think there's a vending
    machine around here somewhere.
[16:10] Shinako
    No, I mean...
[16:14] Shinako
    At my place.
[16:35] Shinako
    I had some cookies that someone gave me.
[16:38] Rikuo
    It's fine.
[16:39] Rikuo
    Don't mind me.
[16:42] Rikuo
    I haven't been here since I set up your TV.
[16:45] Rikuo
    It's all cleaned up.
[16:47] Shinako
    It's usually a bit messier.
[16:50] Shinako
    I really cleaned up.
[17:05] Rikuo
    I'm weirdly nervous.
[17:12] Rikuo
    Sorry.
[17:14] Shinako
    You can stay put.
[17:17] Rikuo
    I don't think I got any on the sofa.
[17:20] Shinako
    It's a wood floor.
[17:21] Shinako
    It'll wipe off.
[17:35] Rikuo
    I... think I'll go.
[17:39] Shinako
    Don't worry about it.
[17:40] Shinako
    I'll make more coffee.
[17:43] Rikuo
    That's not it.
[17:45] Rikuo
    I just can't stand the tension.
[17:51] Rikuo
    No, I mean, I know you don't
    mean anything by any of this.
[17:58] Rikuo
    I'm just not within my comfort zone.
[18:05] Shinako
    I'm not, either.
[18:09] Shinako
    I'm nervous, too.
[18:14] Shinako
    It's weird, isn't it?
[18:15] Shinako
    We used to hang out and sleep in each
    other's rooms all the time in school.
[18:20] Rikuo
    Sorry, this is my fault.
[18:23] Shinako
    No, it's my fault.
[18:27] Shinako
    I'm obviously in the wrong here.
[18:32] Shinako
    I know I shouldn't,
    but I keep dragging it out.
[18:41] Shinako
    But I think you share a
    little of the blame, too.
[18:47] Shinako
    Is it because you're nice that
    you can't be more assertive?
[18:51] Shinako
    Or is it because of Nonaka-san?
[19:03] Shinako
    I thought if I didn't feel the same way as I did
    about the person I loved a long time ago,
[19:09] ---
    it would just be a lie.
[19:13] Shinako
    But maybe there's more than
    one feeling of loving someone.
[19:20] Shinako
    So...
[19:23] ---
    I want to move on,
    even if I have to take it slow.
[20:05] Haru
    I'm gonna head home.
[20:07] Haru
    I don't want to get in the way
    of you newlyweds for too long.
[20:42] Rikuo
    You're taking it slow.
[20:51] Rikuo
    So I'll go home for tonight.
[20:56] Shinako
    Okay.
[21:32] Rikuo
    Hello?
