Without taking me....

She forced me unto her own parents and left

Even though that's all there is

Just to know this truth

It took more than 10 years

Like something out of an afternoon drama right?

I don't see it that way

Yea definitely not

But that's why

When I become a parent one day

I want to have the picture-perfect family

I mean we basically have 2 chances to have a family right?

The first is when we were kids

And the second when we become adults

I'm betting on my second chance

What else...

In our 2nd year of high school

I was confessed to by Yamashiro-kun

And I'm really bad with static electricity

Well

I don't think anyone's good with it

[Laughs]

'Bzzt' Ow!

Eh?

What was that?

Hehe

[Laughter]

Eh?

Hayama-kun why did you buy milk even though it's Tuesday?

Huh?

Was I mistaken?

Milk should be bought on Thursdays!

Right

Thursday

I told you that on Thursdays it's only 148 Yen

Oh come on! There's only a 50 Yen difference!

I'm telling you that 50 Yen might become useful in the future

Around the time Natsuo goes to college

We might come to say "If only we had consistently bought milk on Thursdays back then"

Uemura how many kids do you want?

Three. Natsuo Ikuo and Yuriko

Looks like you've even decided on their names

Not only will Yuriko have 2 loving older brothers

She'd also be youngest so I'm worried we might unintentionally spoil her

Hayama-kun you have to be careful

A daughter is most definitely gonna be cute too...

[Laughs]

3 Years Later

[Chatter]

Wait!

Gotcha!

Nope nope nope

Wow

I made it

Eh?

Really?

That's great!

Congrats!

Thanks

Congrats

What? What?

I've made up my mind!

No matter what you say

I'm gonna go meet your grandma

You're quick on deciding as always Hayama-kun

Okay

I'm sure she'll be happy

Somehow things felt awkward

Mmm...I guess you could say that

It felt like your grandma was giving off an air that she didn't want to become close with me

Maybe it was the nerves

And anyway parents are always rather strict with their daughter's boyfriend

I'm telling you it's the same with her

I wonder if that's the case

You say that even though you were fine with everyone in class being so distant during high school

That's true...but still

Don't overthink it

See ya

So what's up with today?

It's rare for us to go out on a weekday

You're right

Let's break up

Huh?

Like I said we should stop seeing each other

No no no

I don't get it

What? It's simple

It means we won't be a couple anymore in 5 minutes

I don't get the reasoning behind that

There won't be any end to it if I were to state the reason

Then there's no way I could understand. Explain please

Hmmm...OK

Well first of all you're younger than me Hayama-kun

Also you're a student

And that bothers me

Younger?

We were classmates!

We were

But I was born in April

And you were in August

That's 4 months of a difference!

Also

Even though you said you wanted to go the same university as me you didn't

But that's because

You went to a women's university

And it was also a 2 year course

Why even bring this up now

Is there someone else you like?

Sure let's just make it that

Anyway we dated for more than 3 years

Don't you think that's enough?

Enough? That's not the problem here!

There's no way I can agree to this

Then think of it as mutual asessment

What do you even mean by that?

Sorry but I won't change my mind

This isn't a discussion. It's an announcement

This isn't something you can decide by yourself Uemura

You think so?

But you can't be in a relationship if it's just you right?

Unbelievable..

I'm sorry this came out of the blue

But it's becoming annoying so stop complaining

Aw man!

I haven't finished my meal

I messed up the timing

Excuse me!

Yes?!

I would like to take this home please

Ah yes! Right away!

What do you do to erase all the heartache?

You find new love of course!

I'm not hurting

From what I've seen you certainly are

Jesus it's been more than two weeks ever since the breakup and you've still got this dead look in your eyes you know?

This is actually how I am

I don't mind either way but you're bringing everyone down

I don't care

I'm used to being hated by people

Come on don't say that!

OK?

Sorry sorry

Sorry

You OK?

Sorry for the wait

Hayama-san

Suzuhara Emiri

I'm a sophomore and major in English Literature

Hayama-san!

Hayama san!

Oh

I thought it'd be easy to find you since we go to the same campus

But since we're neither in the same year nor major it actually took 2 days

You were looking for me?

Yeah!

On free periods on the way back in the morning

I kept looking for you all around campus

I only moped around for 3 weeks

Jesus are you having a competition with someone about how long you're depressed or something?

No that's not it

It's just that in the past I was depressed for quite a while

Being like that all the time does more harm than good man

I get that

Oh!

Hm?

Ah..

She's basically your girlfriend already huh?

Eh?

You don't have work today Suzuhara-san?

Yeah I only have work on Wednesdays and Saturdays

I see

Suzuhara-san you're in the mountain-climbing club aren't you?

Yeah

Hey

What is it?

It's not Suzuhara-san

Don't you think it's about time you called me by my first name?

Hm?

I mean doesn't using a family name seem too distant?

I see

I guees you're right

Try saying it

Did your ex use to cook Ryota?

Cook?

We didn't really eat here much so....

Hmmmm

Ah! There was that time

Once she made me KFC's chicken

KFC's Chicken?

Yea

But it didn't exactly turn out like KFC's

It was more like eating a lot of textures and spices that were randomly thrown in together

You'll eat anything won't you Ryota?

But you don't exactly have likes or dislikes either do you?

But if I don't want something I won't touch it

Hmm

Thanks for the food

And it's not just that

Ryota you don't have likes or dislikes on things that aren't food either

Yea?

That...

Makes me uneasy

Why?

I mean

Even though I can declare with confidence that I'm the person who loves Ryota the most in the universe...

[Awkward silence since she implied that he can't do the same for her]

It's so simple it's driving me nuts

You really think so?

Ah by the way

Hm?

My girlfriend told me she met Uemura-san the other day

Oo..she did?

When she told her that you've got yourself a new girl

Apparently she showed polite interest and said that she's glad to hear that

I'm sure she did

You guys are weird

Weird?

Well...

I still don't get why you guys broke up

I only come once a month

'Cause it felt like I would be punished if I stopped visiting just because I broke up with Hayama-kun

I see

I placed some flowers should I take it?

I could place it somewhere else

No

No it's fine

OK then

See ya

Hey wait

What is it?

What?

Let's see...

Um...how've you been?

Alright I guess

How's work?

Good?

Same as always

I guess that's great

Um..

There's more?
