00:00yeah she totes has ulterior motives in that brain of hers you really think so this stuff
00:08doesn't usually happen so it kind of took me by surprise i forgot how popular hananoi is
00:13come to think of it he gives off such cold vibes at school so that does make him hard to approach
00:19that sounds about right to me the girls in my club think he's hot in a look don't touch kind
00:24of way now that i think about it i don't know if i've ever seen hananoi spend time with any friends
00:33before maybe him having more friends isn't such a bad idea plus i'm not officially dating him so i
00:41have no right to keep anyone away hey hotaru what's wrong you've barely touched your lunch you okay
00:48oh yeah everything's fine um actually a totally random question but would you be for or against
01:01the idea of making a new friend wait what did kurata mention something you mean keigo i guess
01:09not then did something happen between you two no nothing happened don't worry about it but new
01:15friends i don't think i need any i'm actually trying not to make friends right now huh why is
01:22that well let's say for example there was some kind of major disaster people would worry about the
01:30ones they care about most like their relatives and lovers friends don't necessarily take priority
01:36over them right so why make the emotional investment all it does is take away from the people you really
01:42care about make sense if that's how you feel then i guess i prefer to hold one person truly dear
01:50i only have two hands after all
01:53hananoi sure has an unusual perspective when it comes to this
02:00but he made it clear he definitely isn't interested in making friends
02:04if i tell satamura no things might get awkward i'm not sure how to say this but i think i like sohei
02:16hotaru do you think you could help me out really awkward oh man there's a lot that comes with this
02:25dating stuff hotaru you done prepping those yet sis no dear master i'm what
02:34hmm so basically a co-worker asked you to introduce her to your so-called trial boyfriend
02:43but you don't want to pressure the guy or make things awkward at work either
02:47they grow up so fast so how do i make sure everyone comes out of this okay you can't
02:55people getting hurt sometimes is just a part of life so you've got to decide who's most important to
03:02you that's basically what hananoi said you are so very wise master sure i am but it's not like i've
03:10ever had a boyfriend myself
03:11i'll turn her down before i start my shift today
03:17feels bad
03:18you've been looking pretty upset lately
03:21oh no i'm fine i promise it's just um
03:26well it's colder up here than usual right
03:29you know what it is
03:31the door's open
03:35whoever was on safety checks must have left it open
03:38we could go out on the roof if we wanted

03:48check out the view
03:52i'm glad you're having so much fun
04:01i might not get another chance to do this again
04:04but you know
04:05maybe breaking the rules is okay sometimes
04:10it's kind of exciting
04:12you sure do have strong morals
04:15it won't open
04:26guess the door must be locked
04:28huh did somebody notice it was open and close it
04:32probably
04:32but it shouldn't be a big deal
04:35we have our phones
04:36yeah but

05:09here it'll be fine
05:15just wear this for real
05:17no hananoi you're gonna freeze
05:19oh i have an idea
05:21perfect
05:22maybe not so perfect
05:30if you think about it this is really the warmest option we have
05:37so we should stick it out
05:39as long as you're okay with it
05:41i'm sorry
05:44this is my fault for wanting to come out on the roof
05:47don't worry about that
05:49what if nobody finds us in time and we freeze to death up here
05:53we'll be okay
05:56i promise we'll be okay
05:58you didn't do anything wrong hotaru

06:27and you always have two croquettes after school

06:43no matter what happens
06:46i just always want you to be happy

07:10huh
07:11well that's a relief
07:13is that all it was

07:15i can just go there and turn it down myself
07:17i mean if things got awkward for you
07:20that might make work tough right

07:46it might be a bad idea
07:47all things considered you know
07:49well these are desperate times
07:55don't worry about it
07:57and your promise not to touch me
07:59can we call that off now
08:01i can feel hananui's heartbeat

08:11but right now i feel
08:13happy

09:48wait
09:49idol
09:50that's right
09:51takahiko from the idol group versus
09:53don't you see it

10:01i couldn't believe my eyes
10:02thank you very much
10:04that's good
10:05i'm glad satomara doesn't actually have a crush on hananoi
10:09wait
10:10what am i feeling
10:13am i relieved
10:14wanting to see him smile
10:19wanting to be close with him
10:21being concerned and worrying if other girls were interested
10:24in him or not
10:25i wonder
10:27is this what love is
10:29of course it's love
10:31what would make you think what you're feeling right now isn't love
10:34well love is
10:35when someone matters more to you than anyone else
10:38and when i think about it
10:40me actually liking hananoi sounds about right
10:43but not more than i like you and kyo or anything
10:46i like you both just as much
10:47it's confusing so i'm not sure yet
10:50not to eavesdrop
10:52but love can be different for everyone
10:54if you believe what's in your heart is love
10:57then that is love

15:39i appreciate you walking me home
15:52this is
15:55the place where we first met
15:58i love this little park
16:02it's close to my old elementary school
16:04i used to play here all the time as a kid
16:06hey come to think of it
16:09what were you doing all the way out here that day
16:11it's pretty far from the cafe that you were at
16:14you knew where i'd been that day
16:16so you were at the cafe too
16:18wow no wonder that's why you offered your umbrella
16:22yeah i was worried that it was none of my business honestly
16:26i wandered around in a daze until i suddenly found myself here
16:32that day i was pretty upset
16:37oh true
16:41you saved me
16:45you're my hero
16:47i'm just so happy
16:54ever since i met you here
16:57i've been in bliss
17:00it almost scares me

17:59i know you were only trying to protect me back there
18:05and i appreciate it
18:07but try not to go overboard okay
18:09ever since we first met
18:12i've been concerned about that selfless part of you

18:19but
18:20even if i study and play sports
18:26even if i'm kind
18:28it still doesn't matter
18:30it's the same time and time again
18:33they always choose someone else over me
18:37maybe i'm not enough
18:40that's not true
18:44that's not true at all
18:46you don't have to force yourself
18:48there are people who would still stand by you no matter what
18:51like me
18:52i'm one of those people
18:53i like the way time passes so peacefully when i spend it with you
18:57i like your imperfections

19:03i like the way you don't hesitate to be kind to those in need
19:07i like how sincere you are
19:09how you're so open about your feelings
