[02:45] Yuki     Why do I have to? [02:52] Yuki     Didn't think he'd be this heavy. [02:55] Masaki     He's usually shy with strangers,     but he's not afraid of you at all. [03:01] Masaki     I guess you've got a trustworthy aura. [03:06] Yuki     A loser like me? Fat chance. [03:12] Yuki     And, hey... [03:13] Yuki     What do I do now? Is this supposed to be fun?

[03:52] Masaki     You're so serious. [03:54] Masaki     Thanks for hanging out     with him every day, Yuki-kun. [03:58] Masaki     Hikari's been having a great time. [04:00] Masaki     But your mother said you     were on break from college? [04:03] Masaki     If you've got plans with friends,     you should put those first. [04:07] Yuki     Yeah, no chance there. [04:12] Masaki     Then Hikari's got you all to himself. [04:14] Masaki     Isn't that nice? [04:16] Hikari     Nice! [04:21] Hikari     Papa. Ma-cha.

[04:43] Yuki     Weirdo. [04:50] Masaki     "A loser like me"? [04:56] Masaki     I guess he's just in the habit... [04:59] Masaki     He said it the first day     they played together, too... [05:03] Hikari     Ma-cha... [05:05] Masaki     Hikari?! Aren't you supposed      to be taking a bath with Papa? [05:09] Hikari     Wanna go with Ma-cha. [05:12] Masaki     But why? [05:13] Masaki     Come here, now... [05:15] Masaki     Hiro-san! [05:18] Hiromu     I got his clothes off and he started crying. [05:21] Hiromu     As his father, I weep! [05:22] Masaki     And he'd been so excited about it... [05:24] Masaki     Hikari. Papa's going to catch a cold. [05:28] Hikari     Want Ma-cha! [05:30] Hiromu     You wanna be with Ma, don't you?

[05:56] Hiromu     Is this the first time Hikari's liked     someone besides us this much? [06:02] Hikari     Hi-kun loves Yu-ku! [06:05] Masaki     I hope Yuki-kun lets himself realize that. [06:08] Hiromu     What do you mean? [06:10] Masaki     He casually puts himself down a lot. [06:15] Masaki     But for the first time in his life,     Hikari loves a complete stranger. [06:20] Masaki     I hope that gets through to him,     so it's not a one-way street forever. [06:26] Masaki     Right, Hikari? [06:28] Hikari     Yeah! [06:29] Hiromu     You'd know best about     that sort of thing, right, Masaki? [06:35] Masaki     Me? Why? [06:38] Hiromu     Oh, nothing. [06:39] Hiromu     Still, hearing you go     on and on about Yuki, too... [06:43] Hiromu     Gosh, I'm so jealous! SIGN    Gun-Gun Kids [06:49] Hikari     Ma-cha, Hi-kun wants this one.

[07:29] Yuki     That guy freaks me out. [07:31] Hikari     Hubband? [07:32] Masaki     He means Papa. [07:33] Masaki     But Papa's not scary, is he? [07:35] Hikari     Papa's lovey! Papa's cool! [07:38] Hikari     Papa stong like Man-Man teeher! [07:41] Yuki     "Stong"? "Teeher"? [07:43] Masaki     He thinks my husband is strong     like Koshianman's teacher. [07:48] Hikari     Papa stong! [07:49] Masaki     Stronger than Man-Man? [07:51] Hikari     Yeah! Papa teeher! [07:54] Masaki     I don't think you know what a teacher is, Hi. [07:59] Yuki     What a weird convo. [08:03] Masaki     He smiled! [08:04] Hikari     Yu-ku, so keeyoo! [08:07] Yuki     "Keeyoo"? Say what? [08:09] Wife     Oh, Fujiyoshi-san! [08:11] Wife     Hello, there! [08:12] Masaki     Hello! [08:14] Wife     And is that Yuki-kun? [08:16] Wife     It's been such a long time! [08:18] Yuki     Hey. [08:19] Wife     And Hikari-chan, of course. [08:20] Wife     You've got a much older     friend there, don't you? [08:24] Husband     Yuki-kun, I know little kids     are very charming, [08:28] Husband     but you should really make     some friends your own age. [08:31] Husband     You're antisocial enough as it is. [08:34] Wife     Stop that, dear! [08:37] Yuki     That's not what this is. [08:40] Yuki     We're just... [08:43] Yuki     Just... [08:45] Hikari     Yu-ku... [08:49] Masaki     They're friends. [08:52] Masaki     Right? [08:54] Masaki     Hikari's so attached to you already. [08:58] Masaki     You've even got my husband jealous. [09:01] Wife     Oh, so cute! [09:04] Masaki     You're friends, right? [09:07] Hikari     Yu-ku... [09:09] Hikari     I think his first one ever. [09:18] Yuki     He's the father of a classmate of mine. [09:21] Yuki     He always lectures me like that,     so I never know what to say. [09:26] Masaki     He taught me a lot when     I first moved here too, actually. [09:30] Masaki     I guess he's just like that. [09:32] Yuki     He's not wrong, though. [09:36] Yuki     I've been like this since I was a kid. [09:39] Yuki     I never had any friends. So... [09:43] Yuki     I've got no clue why     Hikarin's so friendly with me. [09:47] Yuki     It's not like I'm nice like you. [09:51] Yuki     I don't even play with him. I just watch. [09:54] Yuki     Hikari's too young to know better right now, [09:57] Yuki     but I'm gonna disappoint him someday. [10:02] Masaki     You played with him in the sandbox, right? [10:06] Masaki     He read picture books with you,     napped with you, drew you pictures. [10:10] Masaki     You gave him someone he wants to be with. [10:13] Masaki     That's all stuff he's never done     with anyone but his parents. [10:20] Masaki     You're important to him.     More than you know, I think. [10:25] Masaki     Thanks for not calling him     just a neighbor before. [10:29] Masaki     That made me happy. [10:32] Masaki     Trust Hikari's love for you. [10:35] Masaki     You'll regret it if you don't,     if you're honest with yourself later. [10:40] Hikari     Ma-cha! Yu-ku! [10:44] Hikari     Leaf! [10:47] Yuki     Leaf? Where'd he get that enormous thing? [10:50] Masaki     Speaking of... [10:51] Masaki     When Hikari said you were "keeyoo"     before, he meant you were cute. [10:57] Yuki     C— [11:00] Masaki     He remembers people saying     he's cute when he smiles. [11:03] Yuki     I'm not freaking cute! [11:07] Hiromu     Feels like we've got a second, bigger kid. [11:10] Masaki     He gets scared when you     glare at him too much. [11:15] Hiromu     Stare... [11:16] (Flashback) Yuki     I'm totally not welcome here, am I? [11:19] Hiromu     Well, I am the breadwinner here. [11:23] Masaki     Still, I shouldn't have been surprised. [11:27] Masaki     You realized he's somewhat     like how I used to be. [11:34] Hiromu     Yeah. [11:36] Hiromu     You kept putting yourself down,     and I had to pretend not to notice. [11:40] Hiromu     My wholehearted devotion to you     was a total one-way street. [11:47] Hiromu     But you've improved enough     to help someone else out. It's great. [12:00] Hikari     Papa! You take foggy! [12:03] Hiromu     Thank you very much! [12:05] Hikari     Thankoomuch. [12:06] Hiromu     Nicely said. [12:11] Masaki     Hikari. [12:12] Masaki     Don't just look after Papa. [12:14] Masaki     Make sure you eat... [12:20] Hiromu     Masaki? [12:22] Hiromu     What's wrong? Not feeling well? [12:25] Masaki     Sorry. I'm fine. [12:27] Masaki     I think my cold got worse. [12:28] Hikari     Ma-cha... [12:29] Hiromu     This seems much worse than a— [12:33] Hiromu     Hey, you've got a fever. [12:38] Both     Eh? [12:43] Hiromu     Thanks for helping out, Matsuo. [12:46] Matsuo     No problem. I had the time. [12:48] Matsuo     And how's your mate?     Did he go to the hospital? [12:51] Hiromu     They told him to rest and keep an eye out. [12:54] Matsuo     Hey, Hikari! Been a while! [12:58] Hiromu     Still don't like him, eh? [13:00] Matsuo     Wonder what I did wrong... [13:02] Matsuo     Is it the beard? [13:04] Matsuo     Oh, this kid a friend of yours? [13:06] Hiromu     Yuki-kun. [13:08] Hiromu     Morning. [13:09] Yuki     Good... morning. [13:11] Hikari     Yu-ku! [13:13] Hiromu     He's the neighbor. [13:15] Hiromu     This is my colleague, Matsuo. [13:18] Matsuo     The neighbor I've heard so much about? [13:20] Matsuo     What were you doing,     skulking around the entrance? [13:23] Yuki     You've... heard about me? [13:25] Yuki     I didn't know if it was okay to check in. [13:28] Hiromu     It's welcome, in fact. [13:30] Hiromu     We were about to hold a strategy meeting. [13:35] Hiromu     Masaki is everything to Hikari. [13:38] Hiromu     He'll start to get withdrawal     if he can't see him for too long. [13:40] Hiromu     He'll cry. [13:41] Matsuo     Are you sure you're not talking about you? SIGN    I'll protect everyone! [13:43] Yuki     What do we do, then? SIGN    Meeting in Progress. [13:45] Hiromu     Just play with him and      keep his mind off of it. [13:48] Matsuo     I'm already exhausted. [13:50] Hikari     Papa! Man-Man! [13:52] Hiromu     Yes, Man-Man's very cool! SIGN    Just leave this to me! [13:55] Hiromu     He's been extra demanding lately, too. [13:58] Hiromu     I give in because he's cute. [14:00] Matsuo     You might be spoiling the kid. [14:02] Hiromu     It's part of his growth. [14:04] Hikari     Papa, O-cha! [14:05] Hiromu     Yeah, he's pretty cool too, huh? [14:07] Matsuo     He's got a lot on his plate. [14:11] Hiromu     Masaki should feel better     with rest and medicine. [14:15] Hiromu     Until then, we'll try to avoid     talking about him as best we can.

[15:05] Matsuo     They're both so stupid. [15:10] Matsuo     Speaking of. [15:12] Matsuo     Shouldn't you go check on him? [15:15] Hiromu     Oh... can't. [15:18] Hiromu     It seems he's in heat. [15:20] Hiromu     The pills have grown less effective lately. [15:23] Matsuo     Oh, so that's the story. [15:26] Yuki     Is being in heat really that bad? [15:31] Hiromu     He says it's not bad at all     when the medicine's working, [15:36] Hiromu     but I still never quite know     how to handle times like these. [15:40] Yuki     Do you have anyone to ask for help? [15:42] Yuki     Masaki-san's parents, or... [15:45] Yuki     I guess yours are alphas? [15:49] Hiromu     Masaki's parents aren't around anymore. [15:51] Hiromu     Mine... I never see. [15:54] Hiromu     Whoops, I said the name... [15:55] Yuki     Oh, sorry. [15:58] Hikari     Papa, where's Ma-cha? [16:02] Hiromu     Masaki's still sleeping.

[16:13] Hiromu     Are you sad because you're hungry? [16:15] Hiromu     Let's have lunch! [16:18] Yuki     It's scary, dealing with     things you don't understand. [16:22] Yuki     I guess marrying outside your type     comes with a lot of that. [16:28] Hiromu     Hey. Matsuo.

[16:59] Yuki     I came home because I can't cook for myself. [17:03] Yuki     Not happening. [17:06] Masaki     What time is it? [17:11] Masaki     As usual... [17:13] Masaki     This body's such a pain. [17:18] Masaki     I hope Hiro-san's okay. [17:24] Matsuo     You definitely put too much in! [17:28] Masaki     Matsu-san's here?

[18:34] Hiromu     Sorry, no can do. You'll sleep with Papa. [18:39] Hikari     No! Ma-cha! [18:44] Matsuo     This isn't working. [18:46] Hiromu     We've put him through a lot. It makes sense. [18:49] Hiromu     Yuki-kun, could you look after him? [18:56] Yuki     Masaki-san? [18:58] Yuki     Sorry to trouble you. [19:00] Yuki     Hikari's crying about wanting to see you.

[19:40] Masaki     The pills weren't doing the trick,     so they gave me a shot. [19:45] Masaki     It's just got a few side effects.     I'll be better soon. [19:49] Hikari     Ma-cha... hurts? [19:55] Masaki     It doesn't hurt at all. I'm fine. [19:58] Masaki     I really want to play with you soon. [20:01] Masaki     I'll be better really soon,     so just wait a little longer, okay?

[20:19] Yuki     Seems like the shot is doing a number on him. [20:22] Yuki     He said he'd be better soon, though. [20:26] Hiromu     Great. [20:27] Hikari     Papa! Ma-cha hurts! [20:34] Hikari     Ma-cha! [20:37] Hiromu     Don't cry now, Hikari. [20:39] Hiromu     When your favorite person is suffering, [20:42] Hiromu     and you want to be with them,     but you can't... [20:47] Hiromu     I know exactly how hard that is. [20:51] Hiromu     But if anything were to happen,     he'd blame himself, so just wait. [20:58] Hiromu     I'm going to welcome him back with a smile. [21:03] Hiromu     That's a hard one, huh? [21:05] Hiromu     Papa's going to be patient     until Ma feels better. [21:08] Hiromu     What will you do, Hikari? [21:14] Hikari     Hi-ku... [21:15] Hikari     Be payshun. [21:21] Hiromu     Good boy! [21:32] Masaki     Hey, that's really good! [21:41] Masaki     Morning, Hikari. [21:46] Hikari     Ma-cha! [21:49] Hikari     Ma-cha! [21:51] Yuki     Masaki-san's up? [21:54] Masaki     I got better faster because     you waited like a good boy. [21:55] Hikari     Ma-cha! [21:59] Masaki     Come here. [22:01] Masaki     Huh? [22:04] Hikari     Hi-kun... be payshun. [22:14] Hiromu     He's such an honest lad. [22:16] Hiromu     He feels all better because of you, he said. [22:19] Hiromu     You can go to him. [22:21] Hiromu     You did a great job. [22:29] Hikari     Ma-cha! [22:35] Hiromu     I'm glad you're feeling better.     Your color's returned, too. [22:38] Masaki     Yeah. I feel a lot better. [22:41] Masaki     Sorry I worried you. [22:43] Hikari     Ma-cha. Papa was payshun, too. [22:50] Hiromu     I really was! [22:53] Yuki     Does Hikarin even understand     the word Hiromu-san used? [22:58] Matsuo     I doubt it. [22:59] Matsuo     At least, I wouldn't think so, rationally. [23:03] Matsuo     But that little guy really was a trooper. [23:06] Matsuo     Sometimes those guys defy rationality. [23:11] Yuki     You're a real old man, Matsuo-san. [23:13] [SONG] sign     Intended as a     compliment. [23:13] Matsuo     You've got a real mouth on you. [23:16] Yuki     I've never seen Hiromu-san     cry out in joy before. [23:20] Matsuo     Yeah? He's a pretty honest guy     with his emotions, really. [23:24] Matsuo     For better and for worse. [23:26] Matsuo     There's one person he's     especially emotional with... [23:31] Yuki     Hiromu-san? Really? [23:33] Yuki     That's hard to imagine...
