Dear sister?

Dear sister?!

Is something wrong, Yumi?

Calling out so loudly like that.

Dear sister, where had you gone?

I'm sorry. There was a store over there that had caught my eye.

I see, and that was why...

I was so sure...

Yumi, what's the matter?

Is it so trying for you to be on this date with me?

No...

No, I just lack confidence...

Like just now, I thought you had become disgusted with our date...

...and gone home...

How silly of you.

That would never happen.

I am...

Dear sister...

That reminds me...

Didn't you just say that a certain store had caught your eye?

Oh, it was that store over there.

Huh?

The maidens, who flock to Mother Maria's garden,

pass through the tall gates today yet again with innocent, angelic smiles.

Their pure hearts and bodies are clad in deep-colored uniforms.

So that the pleats of their skirts are not disturbed...

...and so that their white sailor collars are not set aflutter,

it is customary here to walk slowly and with decorum.

The Private Lillian Girls' Academy, a garden of maidens.

Good Day, Dear Sister

Pedestrians Bicycles ONLY

Pedestrians Bicycles ONLY Honestly!

Miss Chisato Tanuma was being so overly friendly!

She's only Rei's date for half a day!

And Rei is part of the problem, too!

How can she smile and look so delighted?!

The sky is so blue, and yet... What am I doing?

This is a precious day off.

I have to enjoy it in my own way.

Pedestrians Bicycles ONLY

Life is a green light.

I don't have time to be jealous and come to a standstill.

Go, go, Yoshino.

Go for it Yoshino!

It was unexpected that there was no microwave,

but overall, it was a delicious lunch.

So...

How much have you figured out about me?

Let me think...

I have yet to get a clear picture.

Why is it?

I feel as though Lady Shizuka can see right through me.

Even though I've told her nothing.

Even though I haven't laid my heart bare.

We still have time, don't we?

Yes...

Just for today,

let's both forget about things like outward appearances and standing.

What?

Follow me.

Lady Shizuka?!

Lady Shizuka, why...?

Never disturbing the pleats of your skirt,

never running in hallways...

I wanted to see the you beneath the mask of the model student.

That white card on Valentine's Day was your heart.

You have to hide it,

but at the same time, you wish for it to be found.

For someone to understand.

Am I wrong?

I'm sorry.

For doing something akin to trespassing upon your heart.

You must hate me now.

No, I like you, Lady Shizuka.

Words spoken when one is surprised come close to the truth...

Would it be right for me to take it that way?

Tell me, Yumi...

Yes?

With so many here, how do you find the pair ofjeans that you want?

I am beginning to feel less confident about this.

So my dear sister has never been to a jeans shop, either.

But why did she suddenly become interested in jeans?

This is where I have to be strong.

Yumi?

Please do not worry, dear sister.

I am with you.

Thank you. That's so reassuring.

First, we needn't look at the shelves beyond this point,

since those are menswear.

I see.

Thus, our work in looking around has been halved all at once.

You have a good point.

Next comes color,

but since this will be your first pair,

why not go with a standard pair of blue jeans?

What are yours?

Pardon?

I want the same thing that you have.

What?

Because it was seeing you that made me want a pair ofjeans.

That was why I could not help but be drawn to this shop earlier.

I'm sorry to have worried you.

Dear sister...

It was her kind desire to have a pair that was the same as mine?

Now, please call me once you have changed into them.

We will adjust the length.

All right.

Then, I will get changed.

Oh... my...

I wonder if she's doing okay...

D-Dear sister...

Was it not to your liking, after all?

That isn't it.

Yumi, is this right?

P-Please excuse me.

Everyone must have long legs.

Oh, no, they make these long to start with.

They always have to cut off this much for me every time.

They do?

Yes, I will adjust the length now.

It suits you very well, dear sister.

Really?

Yes!

Say, Yumi.

Yes?

I know what store I want to go to next.

Dear sister?

New Lord of Monster: A Certain Love

Higashimachi Odewon Theatre

Higashimachi Odewon Theatre Shoot...

Shoot...

I guess the start times for the next screenings...

...aren't the same as the end times of the previous screenings...

In other words, Rosa Foetida en bouton and Miss Chisato Tanuma...

...have long since left the theater...

I am so sorry.

It's fine. I didn't realize it, either.

Now, chin up.

Let us switch our target to white now.

To Shimako and Lady Shizuka?

They bought take-out food,

so they must be having lunch at a park or something.

Come, we are going to hit every park in the city!

I shall accompany you.

How ironic.

If Rosa Gigantea didn't exist,

we may have become soeurs.

But Rosa Gigantea does exist.

And we love her greatly.

That is why we are happy, isn't it?

Do you like " Ave Maria" ?

Yes, Gounod's especially.

Then I shall perform it for you.

What?

In part, to thank you for today.

Maria Watches Over Us

Welcome back.

Your stuff was here, so I figured you'd be coming back.

Why...?

Shizuka asked me to come, but I've found you instead for some reason.

Dear sister...

I...

I missed you.

I'm right here.

What is it, Yumi? You have such a silly smile on your face.

Oh, no, itjust makes me so happy to think we have matching jeans.

The truth is, when I came dressed like this,

I was worried about what to do if I did not match how you were dressed.

You know, in the past, I used to doggedly try on my own...

...to change the parts of me that differed from everybody else.

I was so determined since the time I started kindergarten at Lillian.

I stopped being driven to and from in a private car,

changed my lunch,

tried watching TV shows...

...that the majority of my classmates were watching...

There was even a time I got myself so worked up that I became ill.

What is the matter with me?

Bringing up the past like that.

I would like to hear more about your past, dear sister.

Oh, of course, notjust about the past.

Then, shall we talk about the present?

And a little bit of the future?

About the future?

Yoshino!

Yumi.

Good afternoon, Lady Sachiko.

Good afternoon, Yoshino.

Are you out shopping?

Yes...

Or rather, I wish I could say that,

but the truth is, I was anxious about Rei and Miss Chisato Tanuma.

Yoshino...

But I am over it now.

After all, it isn't like me to get all twisted up with jealousy.

Yoshino, if you would like, would you care to join us for tea?

But won't I be intruding?

Not at all. The more the merrier.

Right, Yumi?

Yes.

There's actually a cafe that I've wanted to go to for a while.

Lady Sachiko... Yumi... and Yoshino!

Oh, this is just too bad!

Tsutako, what happened to your camera?

Shortly after we came in, someone from the store came up to us...

...and warned me, " Please don't take pictures in the store."

I had intended to get the scoop on the boutons' dates,

but I'm going to forget about the school paper for today.

You're giving up with unusually good grace.

Today, I'm just tired...

...and besides, the cake here is very delicious.

You're right, it's delicious.

Oh, your cheesecake looks nice too, Yoshino.

May I have a little?

Here you are.

The tea is wonderfully fragrant, too.

And even after that, Lady Minako said not a word about the paper,

Tsutako never once took her camera out,

and Yoshino never once mentioned Rei.

By the way,

the chocolate chiffon cake that I ordered was also really delicious.

This unexpected tea party that concluded my date with Lady Sachiko...

...felt to me like a very luxurious time.

Pardon me for losing control.

If you wish it, I'll keep you company until morning.

Oh no...

Crying might be a good sign.

You should show more vulnerability, as befitting your age.

If you take it upon yourself to bear it all, you'll be crushed.

I'm sure no one would fault you if you showed some vulnerability.

Yes...

But I cannot bring myself to take that next step.

Spring will come soon.

Will things change with the coming of spring?

Sure. Cherry blossoms will flower.

New people will come into your life.

The spring that brought you to me, dear sister.

Right, the spring that brought you to me, Shimako.

You know, Yoshino,

Lady Rei was truly kind and I felt so lucky.

Uh, um, Chisato...

What are you doing here?

Rei's house is next door, you know...

But...

Without realizing it, Lady Rei...

...called me " Yoshino" five times.

No matter what we were talking about, no matter where we were,

you were there inside Lady Rei...

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry my big sister is so insensitive.

So there you have it.

You're to blame!

You're the most to blame!

Yoshino...

You're just too nice to girls to begin with!

For all that you're really, really nice,

in exchange, you end up hurting people in little ways.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, Yoshino.

Yoshino, I'm sorry for today.

Hello, is this the Ogasawara residence?

I'm a high school student at Lillian Girls' Academy...

...in Year 1 , Peach Class and my name is Yumi Fukuzawa.

I apologize for disturbing you at night,

but I would appreciate it if I might speak to Lady Sachiko on the phone.

All right, rehearsal was perfect.

Oh, is it weird that I use nothing for Ogasawara,

but use " Lady" for Sachiko?

Then, do I say " Lady Ogasawara's residence" ...?

I want to call my dear sister to thank her for today,

but I have no idea who might answer the phone...

I'm having a hard time placing the call...

Y-Yes? Fukuzawa residence.

I apologize for disturbing you at night.

I'm a high school student at Lillian Girls' A cademy...

...in Year 2 and my name is Ogasawara...

Dear sister?!

Oh, thank goodness! Is that you, Yumi?

Yes, I was just thinking of calling you at home as well.

So it seems.

You answered after one ring, so I can tell.

Um, thank you very much for today.

In all honesty, I was a little nervous about calling your house.

I was worried about whether I could greet them properly...

...if either your mother or father answered the phone.

After all, I have no idea what you have told them about me.

I've told them that you are a wonderful big sister, of course.

Really?

Are you sure you haven't said that I am a spoiled and hysteric big sister?

Only a little.

Hey!

You're heavy.

I had such fun.

Let's go out together again.

Yes!

Oh, yes... About the future that she had mentioned...

Well then, Yumi,

good night and I will see you tomorrow.

Yes, good night.

"See you tomorrow."

Tomorrow, I will get to see my beloved dear sister again.

Because today was such an enjoyable day,

tomorrow will undoubtedly be another wonderful day!

And that's ...

...the future awaiting my dear sister and I.

Good night, dear sister.

See you tomorrow.
