I like strawberries, jeez.

Then I'll get it.

I can understand what your boyfriend goes through now.

What?

How should I put it... You're like a dog.

A dog?

You're loyal and become easily attached,

but you're a handful to look after.

Well, easily put, you seem like a "Hachi".

Hachi?

Let's get going, Hachi.

Hachi?! Give me a cuter name!

There's a CD I want. Can we stop by?

Sure.

Trapnest's new album came out today.

I'm a big fan of theirs.

I'm going to go and pay for this.

Welcome.

I want to pay for this.

Look, look, Nana! They gave me a poster.

Are you planning to put that in the room?

But I like them so much that I joined the fan club.

I'm a huge fan of the bassist, Takumi.

Is that so.

The drummer Naoki is great too,

but the best part of Trapnest is the vocalist, Reira.

Her face and voice are so beautiful. I admire her a lot.

Hey.

What about that guy? The one standing out the most with the guitar.

Oh, Ren...

He is cool looking and popular,

but he doesn't talk much and is scary so I dislike him.

Why are you laughing?

No reason at all.

Huh? Why?

No reason at all...

You like them, don't you?

Why? Don't you like them, Nana?

I'm sorry for going out and having fun without you.

But I want to go tell Shouji right away that I got a job.

You're coming home in the morning, right?

Take the key with you.

Hey... Nana, you don't have any plans for a date tonight or something?

What about a boyfriend?

There's no one like that.

Oh, that guy from last time!

You like him don't you? I knew it!

I don't see Yasu like that.

I see.

You like him, but you can't be honest with yourself.

I understand, but happiness will run away from you

if you keep on being stubborn like that.

Thanks for the warning.

You're welcome. I'll be going now.

Happiness will run away from you

if you keep on being stubborn like that.

Why are you putting a lock on me?

I,

don't want to be alone anymore.

Hey, Nana.

You were like a selfish stray kitten that's proud and free,

but you had a wound that wasn't healable, right?

Myself, who was carefree... Even I thought that was cool.

Without knowing how painful it was.

Thank you for coming!

I'll take care of this, so cover the floor for me.

But...

Is this your first day working here?

Yes.

My name is Kawamura Sachiko. Pleased to meet you.

Yeah, likewise.

Could it be that you're an art student?

Umm, yes.

At Tama Art University. In the oil painting department.

Oh, is that so.

I am also attending Tama Art University. Also in the oil painting department.

Crap.

Let's hurry.

You'll waste one day's pay if you miss the last train and end up taking a taxi.

Okay.

What are you doing?

There.

Finished.

Ready?

Ready and...

There.

Hold on a minute.

Ready and...

There.

This is amazing. It's perfect.

It doesn't get any better than this when it's bought.

It'd be inconvenient without a dining table.

Do you like it?

Thanks Nana. You're so skillful.

It was nothing.

I got scraps from a local construction site, so it was pretty much free.

Hey Nana, you can become a carpenter.

Why don't you look for a job in that field?

What am I going to do if I hurt my fingers doing these sort of things everyday?

Oh yeah, the guitar.

You were in a band before, right?

Are you aspiring to become a professional guitarist?

I'm not a guitarist. I'm a vocalist.

Vocals?!

Amazing! Cool! I admire you!

What?

I can't help it.

Say that after you've heard me sing.

Excuse me. Delivery.

Oh, it might be my stuff.

Coming.

Good evening.

Hey, you... What the hell are you here for?!

Hey, that's great.

Just the reaction I was expecting from you. Good.

Yasu asked me to bring you your stuff.

Then you have no business here anymore. Get going.

Come on, Nana.

Let me stay here for just one night.

No.

To tell you the truth, I...

Don't want to hear it.

...ran away from home.

I said, I don't want to hear it!

Nana, why are you acting so cruel? He's your friend, right?

Nobu-kun, right? Are you all right?

You can call me Nobu, Nana-chan.

I'm saying this for his sake.

Unlike me, you're blessed with an easy life.

You just need to carry on the huge inn back home and your future is guaranteed.

I'm happy as long as I can play the guitar.

You already know it, don't you?

I want to perform your songs...

Hello? Yas-san?

Yeah, here she is.

Hey, Yasu. Do something about this idiot!

Why are you sending him to my place?!

Hey, have you heard his tape?

Tape?

The new song Nobu composed.

It's a good song.

If you sing it, I don't think there'd be anyone that can compete against it.

It's an awesome song!

Did you really compose this? I'm deeply moved.

Good evening. We're Blast.

Yasu, you listening?

I'll make this a night to remember.

To this day, I really can't forget what took place that night.

Because you kept singing to the unwritten song with random English words,

I became captivated by your voice like I was

being put under some kind of mysterious spell.

Hey, Ren.

Yeah?

Do you still remember?

The day you and I first met.

Yeah. How many years ago was that?

At the Christmas concert.

Two years and three months ago.

During a snowstorm like tonight.

You were wearing a red dress.

You don't have to remember it down to the last detail.

Heh... You were the only one who wasn't interested in the concert.

Worst audience ever.

What?

You were standing in the very front of the crowd,

and there you were, just glaring at me.

I was annoyed and thought, "What's up with this girl?"

Even when Nobu introduced you backstage, all you said was,

"I'm Nana". That's it.

I thought to myself, "Doesn't she have anything else to say?"

It was around that time when my grandma passed away.

I bought a Christmas present with the money I'd just gotten from work,

for the lonely and pitiful me.

It was that bright red girly dress.

Makes you laugh, doesn't it?

And?

I guess I fell in love with you when I saw you.

You liar.

You just said that I was annoying a minute ago.

Drummer and Bassist Wanted!!

I see.

To be able to live off of music.

That's one hell of a dream.

Yeah, you think so too?

Nana had some passionate fans when she was still in a band.

And she was quite famous in her hometown.

I was so excited.

I don't despise those kind of dreams, but do you really think that things will go as planned?

It'll be fine because I've been really lucky since I've moved here to Tokyo.

I don't think it helps if you're the one that's lucky.

Hey, let's go karaoke with Nana and the crew tonight.

You'll definitely become a fan too once you hear her sing.

Sorry.

I have work after this until late at night.

Huh? Work again?

It's boring that you're always working when I came all the way out here to Tokyo.

I think you should be more considerate about spending some time with me.

I do.

That's why we're here eating out. And besides, we see each other everyday.

I want to do things like go to the movies or to a trendy shop.
