This looks kinda nice.

You're right.

It's a 20 minute walk, though.

That's right.

This house is so spacious!

It's a 5 LDK.

Meaning 5 rooms with a (L) living room, (D) dining room, and (K) kitchen

That's a lot of spare rooms.

Quite a lot.

Hello there!

If you have time, would you like me to show you around inside?

She loves to cook and She loves to eat

How long have you been house hunting?

It's been about 2 weeks, I think?

We're still just looking online and haven't had a chance to see it in person yet.

I see.

By the way, the ones who will be occupying the place...

Us two. We will be living together.

I see, I see! That's nice.

So, are you two...

You are friends, aren't you?

That is right.

I see.

Well, I used to live in the same room with a friend back in college so...

It's nice to share a room.

By the way, what kind of place were you looking for?

What we were looking for is...

Yes.

Something like this.

Let me have a look. - Sure.

I was looking into it in case it was available for two people to move in.

I see.

Thank you.

In this case, the two people indicated are often limited to

family members, relatives, or couples.

Therefore, if you are looking for a place to stay with a friend,

you have a better chance of getting a room if you look for a property that allows you to share a room.

So, you mean to say that the units we're looking at right now are no good?

No, not entirely.

However, I just cannot guarantee that this will be available for room sharing.

But, that would reduce the number of properties quite a bit, wouldn't it?

In fact, yes.

Is the conditions for two-person occupancy okay for couples

even if they are not family or relatives?

That is right.

However, when renting to couples,

we are aiming at people who are planning to get married beforehand, you see.

The owners often remind me the importance

of how serious the relationship is too.

Well, anyway, in your situation,

I think it would be best for you to look for a property where you can share a room.

Would you like me to suggest a few other places?

Seems like our room hunting is getting a bit complicated.

Right.

But...

It made me think that this is what reality is like.

Reality.

You said you were going to work later today. You still got time?

Yes.

I'll head over as soon as I get back so it's fine.

I see.

I won't be long.

I think I'll be done in 2 to 3 hours.

Can we talk again once I get back?

Let's do that.

Okay.

We are aiming at people who are planning to get married beforehand, you see.

...importance of how serious the relationship is too.

Has your uncle's rice grains arrived already?

Sorry, I got it. Thank you.

And also, I heard Sakura just gave birth to her second child.

Really...

Is that all I can say?

Is that so? She's so cute.

First, boil it.

It's gotten tender now.

I'm done with work.

I think I'll be home in 30-40 minutes.

It's so good!

Nomoto...

Welcome back.

You've been waiting here for me?

I just got here.

I see.

Let's go.

I thought, I couldn't wait to see you.

Thanks for waiting for me despite the cold weather.

But there's some distance between us.

I mean, yes but...

I'm happy.

Come in.

I smell something sweet.

That's right.

I've been cooking azuki beans since I got back.

Azuki Beans are small, crimson red legumes with a mildly sweet flavor and creamy cooked texture.

Azuki beans?

You see, mom sent me some rice grains in the package too.

Is that so?

Doesn't it take a lot of time to make sweet bean paste?

But, it wasn't the case today.

The repetition of silently simmering and removing the scum was quite refreshing.

I was bothered by all the things I was thinking about.

Hey...

When you said you were bothered by a lot of things,

was it about what happened earlier today?

While I was driving, my head was filled with thoughts too.

I don't think the realtor we talked to today meant anything malicious,

and it's not like we told him we were dating either.

But, I was a bit hurt.

I see.

That would imply that same-sex couples are not in a serious relationship.

Just because we couldn't really get married, right?

Right.

I know we just started dating not too long ago but

we are taking this relationship seriously, aren't we?

We are.

Today, I said we were friends and I'm sorry I said that.

When the realtor asked me about it, I didn't know what to say.

It's fine.

It was something unavoidable in that kind of circumstance.

And there were people around too.

I've seen news about how same-sex marriage is not legal,

and about the statements made by politicians on this issue.

Instances like what happened is how it affects us.

That's right.

Hasn't today been exhausting?

Yes, it has drained me.

We didn't do anything though.

Nothing's progressing.

This is putting me in a slump.

But, you made sweet bean paste, right?

You're right. I did make sweet bean paste.

Shall we eat it?

Sure.

Well then...

How do we eat it?

We can eat it as it is.

I've got ice cream and bread here.

Nomoto...

Do you think you can make toast with sweetened butter?

That's it! Let's do that!

It's baked.

Is this enough? Or more?

Please top it all over.

Okay. Lots and lots of it.

It's so good.

The sugar is soaking in...

The salty flavor of butter tastes good too, right?

And maybe later,

don't you wanna try a sweet bean paste and ice cream combo?

That will be absolutely good.

This combination is just the best!

It's tasty. - Right?

This was fulfilling.

The sweet bean paste really puts you in a happy mood, doesn't it?

I'm glad we cooked it.

Alright! Seems like I got my motivation back!

Actually, just earlier,

I was re-checking places that allow room sharing.

Do you want to view them with me?

Sure. With pleasure.

Nomoto?

Not that it solved any problems, but...

There's something about good food that makes you feel a little more positive, right?

You're right.

Rather,

I feel like the food you make holds such power in it.

How could you say something so uplifting, Kasuga?!

I genuinely mean it.

Thank you...

Let's search for more rooms.

That's right.

This one here...
