A boardinghouse.

A tea hall.

Rose parties.

Secret meetings.

Group events.

A window overlooking from the library.

This isn't good. I think I'm in love.

What are you doing?

I was just...

And where are your friends?

They've gone to see the chapel.

You didn't accompany them?

No.

There's something I wanted to ask you...

But I didn't have the chance to earlier...

You want to talk, huh?

Let's go outside.

It's best if we don't do it here.

It will become a bouquet of flowers

花束に変わる

hanataba ni kawaru

It will become a bouquet of flowers

花束に変わる

That was just, wow!

Sure was!

The ceiling was amazingly high. It was like staring into the heavens!

The stained-glass panels were so immaculate.

The solemn feel held me back from talking out loud.

I know what you mean.

I'm not used to such things either.

I'm sorry. I thought I was signing up for the Literary Club. My mistake, I guess.

So you're not joining the basketball team after all?

Such a shame. You've got the right stuff for it, too.

By being tall and all?

It is regrettable.

Such a loss.

But I'm really not that sporty.

I meant it's such a loss that I won't be with you.

Did you know I liked you?

The first time I saw you, I knew...

This is the person I would like so much.

Don't trifle with me.

I'm not. I'm very serious.

Something is going on between those two that's so titillating.

Definitely.

Alright, time to intervene.

And why do such a thing?

Because, we were born witness to it. It's only natural to break it up before it progresses any further.

Here I go.

Manjoume! We're leaving now!

See ya later, Acchan!

So that's Sugimoto, an upperclassman.

Mommy!

I'm right over here! Please come!

Ikumi

Good morning. It's me, Ko.

Kyoko, are you ready or not?

Just a minute longer!

Sorry to make you wait for her.

It's fine, Auntie.

You should drive your car to school.

I mean, wasn't that the purpose they got it for you?

I was going to use it to drive you there but you'd decline.

I prefer taking the train.

So you say, as always.

Give me some credit at least, will ya?

And to rely on you always?

Correction, you used to rely on me.

Kyoko, being so headstrong will go against your wiles.

I've never been that alluring in the first place.

I still have until Sunday to get the girls, correct?

Yeah.

I'll keep in touch, then.

You just handle your end of the set-up.

I appreciate your taking me to school.

She's really doesn't look cute that way.

Okudaira.

Can you spare a sec?

Group dating?

You want to go on a group date?

Well, that's one way of saying it...

Gee whiz, group dating huh.

And I get a part in such a venture!

Don't get so hyped, it's really not a big deal.

But won't there be college folks attending?

I'm not sure what to discuss with them!

My fiancé's arranging it.

You'll like him when the both of you meet.

Fiancé... You're already betrothed...

Only for appearance sake.

Does that mean the one you like...?

Is not him.

Right, why would it be?

The one I truly like dumped me.

Because of that, I'm quite desperate right now...

"Males who are also close relatives will be the only ones allowed."

"Special permission will also be granted to fiancés."

Fiancés have it good!

Ecstatic, huh?

That's a high-class, all-girls school for you!

But doesn't that mean any boys the girls bring could be declared their fiancés?

I know! So dreamy!

I hear some the girls get an entirely new fiancé every year!

Well, I think that's not right.

It will be sunny tomorrow, for most of the country.

Moving on...

What's all this you're doing?

I had a sudden urge to move stuff around.

You can do it tomorrow since it's Sunday for Pete's sake.

I'll be fine. Everything will be nice and tidy soon.

There.

...I'm very serious.

What do you say, let's go on a date?

Got plans with anybody this Sunday?

No, I don't...

It's a date then.

10 o'clock, Kamakura station. Be there.

Sure...

Manjoume! We're leaving now!

What would be nice to wear tomorrow?

Say what?!

What are you talking about?!

Hell no!

I'll never speak to you again if you even dare!

So forget it.

I'm telling Dad.

What do you think his reaction will be when he finds out?

What's going on?

Is there a problem?

No problem!

Good.

Yelling in the house isn't good.

R-Right...

He's ten times more stricter that I am.

So what will it be?

Your medication is on the table.

Thanks, mom.

You're not getting any younger dear, so take it easy.

I know.

Fumi's still in bed?

She just left.

Shopping, I guess.

Can't say. Maybe she went out on a date.

Who's the rascal? Didn't she say that she needed a cellphone...?

No, you worrywart.

Aren't you worried about our daughter dating someone?

I'm more worried if she isn't dating someone.

Here, Okudaira.

Sorry for the lateness!

It's all right. We were here early though.

There's still someone we're waiting on. He's not the best with punctuality, I'm afraid.

I want you to meet Ko Sawanoi.

He's the fiancé I told you about.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

The pleasure is mine! I'm Akira Okudaira.

Have you been seeing someone else?

Why do you ask me that?

I'm just curious, that's all.

There's... no one.

Let's take a look at the ocean.

Why the ocean?

There's a secret place of mine there.

If the time's right, we can have it all to ourselves.

This place crowds up with people whenever the hydrangeas come into bloom.

This is my first time being here.

Fumi, what a pretty name that is.

Thanks, I'm flattered.

Fumi.

Fumi?

Yes...

Let's do this again.

There's a weirdo.

What's that?

We're being followed.

Can't be...

A guy who goes about with shades.

I'd say he's about our age.

I've seen him three times already.

You must be imagining it?

Afraid not. I noticed him, unmoving and looking this way, while I was getting our food.

Are you sure he's not just staking out where the girls are working?

Must be a stalker?

Forgive me everyone! It's just my older brother!

I told him not to, but he did it regardless.

And after you graciously invited me and all...

I vehemently told him not to follow...

But that idiot wouldn't listen.

I hate his guts!

Just die already and stay dead!

Akira! Those things are hard, stop it already!

I can't believe it. You ruined my perfect date!

And they think I'm a weirdo to boot!

What do you get from embarrassing me like that?!

It's because...

I can't bear to think of my little sister being taken back to the home of some guy...

Are you retarded or something?

What's that?

With thoughts like that, it's no wonder you can't get a girl!

Worry about your sorry self rather than me for once!

But as long as you're there-

Stop saying such things, you creep!

I hope you two can stop it now.

The neighbors just love hearing about this.

Okay.

Come now, stop moping already.

That Ikumi-girl is one sexy fox, huh?

Though luck then. She's already taken by a great guy.

Didn't you say it's only for outward appearances?

So you plan to make a move on Ikumi, then?

Not really.

I'm just saying that it might be her that's after you.

Get real!

Are you certain that it isn't the case?

If the engagement is just a sham, wouldn't it be plausible for it to be called off anytime?

She sure are an interesting girl.

And cute, right?

I can understand her despair after what her bother put her through.

It's a shame they had to go home together.

I'll admit, she really is a cutie.

Is that you, Fumi?

Fumi?

Let's do this again.

This is yours.

Go all over it.

Don't skip any of the lines, even though you won't be active on stage.

I-I won't!

Kawasaki, there's something I want to ask the club president.

She's in Mr. Kagami's office right now.

She should be back soon.

Faculty Room

The script is good to go.

How are the preparations for the play going?

They're going on smoothly.

Forgive me if I haven't been active in helping the club out.

It's alright, there's no need to.

Whether with or without you, we're doing fine, Teacher.

So sorry.

I'm just pulling your leg!

I see.

Being sarcastic got the best of me, I guess.

That so.

We've requested for Sugimoto's assistance.

She'll be playing the role of Heathcliff.

How is Sugimoto doing?

Quite well, and I must say she's more dashing with each passing day.

Dashing, you say?

Is she with the drama club at her school?

Actually, she's into sports lately.

My guess is that she's the team captain of basketball over there.

That's an impressive change.

She excels in almost anything she puts her mind into.

Truly impressive.

Thanks for this.

Thank you for bearing with me.

So this is end for you with basketball, huh?

Truly a shame.

She's always here, so you better watch out.

She can be a hardcore recruiter, I tell you.

Well then, I'm recruiting her out of here.

Let's head to the library, Manjoume.

Steel shelves have their uses,

but it's the wooden one that gives off a polish flair.

Fujigaya's library is really outstanding.

That's right. One could say, that it's "The Library".

I'm beginning to understand why Acchan chose Fujigaya now.

Acchan is...

In Fujigaya there's place called "Library You"...

"Library You"?

It was called that because of some teacher messing around with a girl who loved books a lot and named her so.

That's so romantic.

What's with the teary look?

Please don't startle me like that. I'm just not prepared.

Very well then, prepare yourself...

Take a deep breath.

A forest of steels shelves serving as a veil...

That's where she and I had our first kiss.

Rise and Shine
