These words I hold for you within my heart,

胸に抱くキミへの言葉

I wish I could tell you someday.

いつか伝えたいな

koboreru binetsu takanaru kodou

Almost feverish as my heart beat faster,

零れる微熱 高鳴る鼓動

hajimari wa wakaranai kedo

I had no idea what that feeling was at first.

始まりは分からないけど

ichido kizuita kesenai omoi

But once I realized it, I can no longer erase my feelings.

一度気付いた 消せない想い

uso niwa mou dekinai kara

I can no longer lie to myself.

嘘にはもう出来ないから

deatta no wa arifureta guuzen dato shitemo

Even if meeting you was just pure accident,

出会えたのがありふれた偶然だとしても

tokubetsu na imi wo kanjiteru

I can sense a special meaning to it.

特別な意味を感じてる

For letting me stay beside you,

キミのそばに居られることを

itsumo kamisama ni kansha desu

I thank God every day.

いつも神様に感謝です

mayoi no nai kimi no yokogao

I want to keep looking at you from your side,

迷いのないキミの横顔

zutto nagameteitai

your profile is always without a trace of hesitation.

ずっと眺めていたい

The time I spent alone with you,

キミと二人過ごす時間が

yuruginai chikara wo kureru yo

gives me unwavering strength.

揺るぎない力をくれるよ

fui ni ukabu kimi eno kotoba

Unknowingly these words for you came to my mind,

ふいに浮かぶキミへの言葉

itsuka tsutaetai na

I wish I could tell you someday.

いつか伝えたいな

Yup, another beautiful day!

Romantic Scramble

Morning, Mother.

Morning, A-chan.

Hey, hey, what do you think of this soup?

I'm fine with whatever your palate says is good.

Aw, I'm asking you because I can't trust that.

Come on, please?

Okay, okay.

Maybe it could use a little something more.

I thought it might.

Please, A-chan?

Oh, all right.

I guess that about does it.

Let me taste, let me taste.

It's delicious! That's my A-chan!

Flattering your daughter won't get you anything.

It's not flattery, though.

But with the way you are, you could get married at any time.

I don't have anyone.

You don't? Didn't you bring home a present from someone yesterday?

Who? Who?

Oh, I know! It's from Ri-chan, isn't it?!

N- No, it's not! There's no way Rin-chan would give me something!

I don't think that's true.

It will be summer break soon.

Yeah.

Have you made plans of any sort, Asa-chan?

Nope, nothing special.

What about you, Kareha?

I am actually considering getting a little part-time job.

Part-time job?

Yes, I thought I might try waitressing at a cafe.

You know, the place called Flora in front of the train station.

The place that's famous for their short skirts?

Yes. That uniform is so cute, I decided on it immediately.

I-I see.

How would you like to join me, Asa-chan?

What?!

I'm going to decline.

I'd never look good in something that cute, anyway.

That is not true.

No way!

And if Rin-chan ever saw me, I bet he'd say something like,

"What has gotten into you, Asa-senpai?"

Why would you mention Rin-san in connection to that?

What? No particular reason.

Oh, could it be...

My! My! My!

Hey, Kareha, don't imagine anything weird!

It has nothing to do with anything!

Oh, my, Asa-chan...

My! My! My!

Morning, Asa-san.

Oh, morning.

Another beautiful day, isn't it?

Y-Yeah, it is.

I'm sorry about yesterday.

I'm sure I surprised you.

Oh, no, not at all.

Then I'm glad.

Well, see you later.

That is the person in question, correct?

Yeah.

Oh, man...

What are you going to do, Asa-chan?

Morning!

M-Morning, Shigure-san.

Morning. Morning.

Honestly...

You have become the center of everyone's attention, Asa-chan.

There's no reason to make such a big fuss about it.

But the person who confessed his feelings for you is that Takizawa-san.

I don't really know him, though.

He is the captain of the soccer team and an all-around athlete.

He is popular among the girls, you know.

I thought Midoriba-kun in Rin-chan's class was more popular.

Takizawa-san's delightful personality seems to put him in the lead.

In addition, he is famous for never showing interest,

even when various girls approached him.

Wow, I had no idea.

And he has now confessed his feelings for you.

That is an incredible thing.

I'm not that happy about it.

I'm not interested in him one bit, after all.

But you ended up accepting his present, did you not?

But right at that moment...

I couldn't think of a reason to turn him down.

A reason?

In romantic matters,

whether you like or dislike him is enough, is it not?

But I neither like nor dislike him.

Oh, dear.

I botched that one...

Asa-san.

The afternoon PE is being held jointly between our classes, right?

I am really looking forward to it.

What? Now that he mentions it...

I will score a goal in your name.

Uh, um...

Well, I will see you later.

When he is that straightforward, it leaves you speechless.

Ultimately, a man that is slightly on the aggressive side is...

My! My! My!

Oh, man...

Rin-chan.

Perfect timing!

Asa-senpai,

please comment on being confessed to by the famous Takizawa-senpai!

What? Uh, that is, well...

Huh?

So you know about it, too, Rin-chan?

Yes, well...

It is the talk of the school, after all.

Oh, wow, this is sort of embarrassing.

So, what do you have to say?!

Mayumi-chan...

What do I say? I would look silly in a romantic relationship.

Right, Rin-chan?

That's not true!

There are even some guys coming out now...

...saying they were actually secret fans of yours!

Oh, man...

What do you think, Rin-san?

What? Well...

If anything, I used to sort of think of you as one of the guys,

but after hearing about this,

I could definitely see how you might be popular.

I do think you have a number of the right qualities.

My! My! My!

Oh, please! You say such gratifying things, Rin-chan! Really!

Ow! Ow!

Oh, no! Kareha, let's go!

See you later, Rin-chan!

That was rare, was it not?

What was?

That Rin-san said you might be popular.

Was that not the first time he said such a thing?

Huh? Was it?

Yes, it was.

It could just be that this just might be it!

What are you trying to get at?

The fact that Rin-san has begun to see you as a girl means...

No way! Rin-chan and I are old buds. Just friends. That's all.

Could that really be it?

Yes, it is.

I think you and Rin-san would surely make a great match.

Two people, who had been nothing more than friends until now,

find themselves at an unexpected turning point and...

My! My! My!

Quit imagining weird things and get changed already.

Takizawa's so cool!

Next up, Shigure Asa!

C-Coming!

Asa-chan!

Shigure-san, are you all right?!

Did that hurt?

No, I'm fine.

I'm sorry for worrying you guys.

You gave us such a scare.

Kaede here was almost in tears.

Because...

We heard that you had been seriously injured...

Talk about an exaggeration.

I only sprained it a little.

Wouldn't it be better if you saw a doctor?

It'll be fine with just a compress.

Asa-chan, you cannot get up yet!

Um, Kareha-senpai, you are good at healing magic, aren't you?

Couldn't you heal Asa-senpai's foot?

Well...

It's totally okay.

It'll heal in no time, even without magic.

But you will not be able to go home like that.

Don't worry, since Rin-chan is apparently going to walk me home.

What? Me?!

Asa-san!

I am sorry. Homeroom went longer than usual.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm totally fine.

I will walk you home.

It's okay, since I already asked Rin-chan.

What?

Since Rin-chan's been to my house lots of times and my mother knows him.

I see...

Was that okay?

Was what okay?

About Takizawa-sepai. It felt kind of like I had gotten in the way...

You don't have to worry about it.

But like this morning and during lunch break,

you seemed to be acting strange.

With the whole rumor thing going on, I sort of felt self-conscious.

If you were worried, sorry about that.

Takizawa-senpai...

He was worried about you.

Yeah, he's a nice guy.

I feel terrible that I haven't given him an answer.

You have yet to respond?

I meant to, but...

I guess that's also part of why I didn't have him walk me home.

On that score, I can ask you without feeling bad about it.

You're so handy.

Just what am I?

What do you think you are?

A hopeless kid brother,

an old bud,

childhood friends the instant we met...

Feel free to pick whichever one you like.

Sheesh, that's so boring.

Oh, you want some excitement?

How's that?

Does that make your heart race?

It's precisely that kind of thing that makes it not exciting.

You got a point there.

Shigure

What? Ama-san isn't coming home until evening?

Yeah, make yourself at home.

Easy for you to say, but...

Are you discontent with having only me for company?

No, it makes me very happy.

Then, I'm going to go change quickly.

Is your leg okay?

Then, would you help me change?

Please hurry up and go change.

Aw, boring!

I don't mind if you come take a peek,

but if you do, let me know, okay?

I am technically a healthy guy here,

so if you say things like that, I will really do it.

When you do, you'll get to hear my cute shriek with every peek.

Sheesh! I swear!

She seems really tough, but she's actually the cutesy type.

If she'd only show a little more of that side,

she could easily hook a boyfriend or two...

This... He must be someone with integrity...

I wonder why Asa-senpai hasn't said yes to him.

Where's Rin?

He is walking Asa-senpai to her home.

Asa's home...

Yes.

A young man and a woman together alone...

R-Rimu-chan, where did you learn such a thing?!

TV.

Daytime drama, Madam Theater.

You should not watch such weird shows.

Besides, there is nothing to worry about between Rin-kun and Asa-senpai.

Really?

With those two, something like that would never happen.

Never...

She sure is taking a long time.

Well, guess I'll take this chance to go to the bathroom.

It sure shows that I've been coming here since middle school.

I know my way around the house like it was my own.

Um...

Rin-chan...

Did you... forget to lock the door?

N-No...

It's kind of broken right now,

and I was planning to go buy parts this weekend and fix it...

Oh, I see.

Yeah, that's how it is.

Th-Then, pardon the intrusion.

Oh, no, pardon me.

Let's forget about it. That was an accident.

Agreed.

Come to think of it, you haven't been here in a while, have you?

You are right. I used to visit a lot back in middle school,

but not so much since we got into high school.

Mother's missed you, you know.

Before, Kaede used to come here practically every day

to learn how to cook, so...

That's true.

That's right, you and I first met because of that, too, wasn't it?

Do you remember?

Well, vaguely...

It was when I was in the Cooking Club in middle school,

when the two of you dropped by.

At first, I thought you were going to join along with her.

Then...

I am just here to keep her company, so...

Please look after Kaede for me.

I was sort of surprised.

Kaede has a way of pushing herself too much...

...if she is left to her own devices.

Yeah, I envied her.

Envied her?

Yup. You didn't join the Cooking Club,

but you always waited for Kaede until it was over.

I am amazed you remember.

I envied Kaede.

All you were doing was waiting,

but I could tell that you really cared about Kaede.

It made me realize there were people like that in this world.

And for her part, Kaede was working hard to become a good cook for you.

The relationship you two had seemed so great to me.

Especially since I didn't have anyone like that.

It made me wish I had someone like that, too.

Knowing you, I am sure you will find him.

You think so?

I do. Take Takizawa-senpai, for instance. He was worried about you.

Takizawa-kun, huh?

Oh, I am sorry. It just slipped out.

It's okay. I'd feel awkward having you tiptoe around me like that, too.

Then, would you tell me about it?

Well, let me think...

I wonder what it is...

It's not quite right.

Do you mean he is not your type?

That's not it.

It's something Kareha said, too, but...

In romantic matters,

whether you like or dislike him is enough, is it not?

In my case, it's not about me liking or disliking him.

Besides, you really think the maiden in love thing would suit me?

That is a difficult question.

That's awful!

At times like this, you're supposed to say it would, even if it's a lie!

Pardon me.

Well, you're exactly right, though.

Right now, rather than let my heart race with love,

I want to enjoy the camaraderie of high school life with everybody.

I want to do all the silly things with everybody for a while longer.

Even though I know that alone won't get me anywhere.

I understand how you feel.

Right?! I knew you would!

We are old buds, after all.

But if it's with you, maybe I wouldn't mind doing the romance thing.

What?

Asa-senpai?

Ow!

I have no interest in competing against Sia-chan and Nerine-chan and Kaede!

What is your problem, really?

Sorry about that.

Shall I get us some tea?

Ow!

Rin

A-chan, I'm home!

I'm home.

Oh, Ri-chan, I didn't know you were here.

Pardon me for imposing.

Long time no see, Ri-chan.

Oh? A-chan, what happened to your leg?

I had a little accident during PE...

That's terrible! We have to get you medicine!

Oh, you got me!

You were teasing me again, weren't you?!

I guess you'll never know.

Were you sure about that?

Yeah, I can't imagine love for myself anytime soon.

Perhaps the truth is that there is someone you already like.

It's not anything like that.

I just want to stay in the same place for a while longer, that's all.

But I guess there is a boy I can't quite ignore.

Rin, I can't sleep.

You should count sheep.

Got it.

One sheep, two sheep... What are the sheep doing?

Strolling around and jumping fences.

And being sold?

What?

Selling them wouldn't be good, right?
