Nana Page #5

---

What is it?

Do you still like Ren?

So you knew.

I'm sorry for pretending like I didn't know.

But.

You brought me here knowing that.

Thanks.

The assembly hall is this way.

Thank you for coming.

I'll be down after I have a smoke.

Okay.

Nana never really answered my question.

But I already knew the answer without her answering it.

He's two years older than me.

I'll introduce you to him later.

You'll definitely fall for him!

I don't care.

I just came to kill time.

Ren was left behind in a warehouse near the harbor right after birth.

It even became big news at the time.

And he's still living there too, saying "This is my starting point".

Ren is aspiring to be a professional musician so a background like that only helps him, he said.

I don't like guys like him.

He's just trying to buy pity from people.

Idiotic.

Oh sh*t. We need to hurry or the concert is going to start.

I ran through the snowstorm hiding the red dress under my coat.

What should I call the feelings that were born that night?

Ren seemed too bright for me, who's lived her life so pitifully.

Ren and I got together on Christmas, one year after we first met.

A homemade cake. Aren't I the popular one?

It might be poisoned.

It could actually be from one of my fans.

"Maybe she's dating Ren. She should go to hell" cake.

Taste it. I don't want to die for something that isn't true.

I don't want to either.

Even the fans know the rule that Blast members won't lay a hand on me.

Now that what they're thinking is true, dying wouldn't be so bad.

I seriously thought that I didn't mind dying.

Because I wanted Ren so much.

I just wanted him so much I couldn't help myself.

Is that a lotus flower?

It's Ren's flower.

Honjo Ren

Oosaki Nana

Ren taught me the happiness of singing.

Introduced me to the guitar.

And gave me the will to live.

With Ren's attractive force, I was like a throbbing roar in the sea.

But it's not like I decided to sing for Ren.

I've continued to sing all this time for myself.

My eyes were fixated only on Ren,

as I sent him telepathic signs telling him that Nana is here.

Will it not reach?

Is that all your luggage?

All I need is my guitar... And this cigarette.

He's lying.

We sent everything else. He said he didn't want to carry heavy stuff.

Especially since I won't be there to carry your stuff anymore.

It's time.

I lived with Ren for a year and three months.

At the beginning of spring when there was still snow,

our relationship ended.

I thought at times that Ren looked this way but the minute I thought that,

his eyes would shift to somewhere else.

Hey, you screwed up in the second song.

You might've thought you covered it pretty well, but it was noticeable.

I'm going to take a piss.

Even Ren makes mistakes.

Even Homer sometimes nods. It's a saying.

Encore! Encore!

Did Ren not notice?

You can't see the audience with all those lights beaming on you.

Really?

I don't know. I've never performed on a stage this big.

No way.

It must feel good to sing on a stage this size.

Hello, Yamazaki law firm.

Yasu, Nana's here.

You knew, right?

Why didn't you tell me?

I wanted to surprise you.

Thanks to you, I missed a note.

Although I arranged it well to cover it.

I'll give you Nana's friend's cell number.

If you want to see her, give her a call.

How do you expect me to see her after all this time?

If you have no intention of seeing her ever again. I'm taking Nana.

There were two encore songs.

Ren didn't look at her once.

Come on in.

We're home.

Welcome home.

You must be hungry.

Dinner's ready.

Hello?

Yeah.

Okay, here she is.

It's Yasu.

Hey, what's up?

Ren might call you. Just giving you a heads up.

What do you mean?

Quit sticking your head into my business!

I have no intentions of speaking to him ever again!

Then tell him yourself in person.

You still have the key, don't you?

Give it back to him.

Put yourself in his position of being tied down to a woman he can never hold.

All right.

Tell me where Ren's staying.

Nana?

It can't be helped now.

I'm going to go give back the key.

Key?

The key to unlock the chain around Ren's neck.

But if you give him back the key, then...

Sorry, but can you call me a taxi?

Excuse me. Are you a staff member?

Yes, I am.

May I see your ID?

I called her over. Can you let this one slide?

There, I gave you back the key.

You came here to return it to me?

It's all over now.

I just came to tell you that.

It's not my style to let things drag on.

Bye.

Hey, wait up.

Don't misunderstand me.

I have nothing to talk to you about.

Oh, that's right.

I'll tell you one thing.

One day, I'll surpass Trapnest for sure.

Nana.

You haven't changed.

I'm relieved to see you're doing well.

Ren.

Let go!

I have no intentions of starting things with you again.

Let go!

I missed you.

I shouldn't have come.

At that time. What were your feelings towards Ren

when you went to go see him?

How were you really feeling?

Shouji

Would you

like to delete Shouji?

Shouji

Deleted.

If the feeling is so simple that you could easily say you liked him,

you would've gone to see him already, right?

Hey, what are you doing? These roses look expensive.

Quit talking like a cheapskate, Mr. guitarist of Trapnest.

Well, flowers eventually wither away anyway.

You'll never wither away.

But doesn't this remind you of old times?

We used to sit in the tub and talk about things all the time.

I still have that place rented out.

With no one living there?

What a waste.

It's okay because that's my starting point.

One day, I'll buy the place.

And when I retire, I'll live there with you.

Don't decide my retirement without my consent.

When I was a kid, that building was still an empty warehouse.

I ran away from the orphanage often and played guitar there all night.

Even without talent, one can become a great guitarist if they play that much.

This is my first time hearing that.

I've never told anyone this.

I wanted people to think I was a genius.

Hey, Ren.

Yeah?

This is impossible.

I can't live with you like old times.

I hold grudges too.

But I think meeting up, holding each other,

and talking like this once in a while isn't a bad idea.

And once I'm really old,

when I'm able to let go of all of my pride and grudges.

And when I get tired of singing.

Can I return to that house too?

Back then, I thought that I'd never want to fall in love again.

But no matter how much pain or suffering I may have to endure,

I thought that I want to dream once more.

And I want to love someone from the bottom of my heart.

As I prayed for your happiness, Nana.

So, what happened between you two?

You said you'd tell me everything!

Well, you did help me out this time.

Huh?

I'll give you a reward. What do you want?

Takumi's autograph!

Piece of cake. I'll just ask Ren.

Ask Ren?!

It's just an autograph.

Not that.

You two are back together?

Back together... More like...

That's good to hear, Nana!

Not good at all!
