Hiro!
At that time,
I lived in a very small world.
I didn't recognize that it was a small world.
I felt like I had to live with all my might.
"That is me", I thought.
Mika! Wake up!
I am awake!
Ah, move, move!
Dad, move, I'll be late!
>Tahara Ceramic ~ 10 years anniversary ~ showing our spirit<
- Good morning! - Good morning!
- Here Mika, your lunch. - Thank you.
Ah, Dad, your tie's drawing out again.
Ah...
- What? - What is it?
When I was in high school, you had leftovers from shaving everyday.
He's desperate, isn't he? Trying to occupy his daughter in puberty.
- It was on purpose? - No, absolutely not.
He was worried you might change and couldn't stand it, right?
He wants you to stay a child forever.
I won't change. So relax, dad.
Uhummm...
Let's eat!
I won't change.
I really thought so.
That I would change by falling in love was something I couldn't even imagine.
Good morning!
Hey, Aya!
Say, how's my make-up today? - Huh?
Is there something different from always? - Ehhh?
Good morning!
Good morning!
Good morning!
Aya, you changed your mascara!
You can tell! It's LancĂ´me!
- You look so mature! - How much was it?
If you care about that, you won't be able to get a boyfriend!
- What is it, Mika? - Nothing.
But what happened, suddenly?
What, what?
I... like someone!
Really? Who? Tell us!
I won't say!
- Wait! Tell us! - I won't! - Why?
Only by falling in love the scenery's colors change...
And you can hear the wind blowing gently.
Hokuryou High School
I didn't know that everything in this world would change.
The one who taught me that was Hiro.
But...
The Hiro who taught me all that,
Isn't...
here anymore...

Hi!
The one with the piercing! He's called Nozomu!
He's so cool!
He's so cool!
Yo, I'm Nozomu. Let's exchange mail addresses.
Aya! Aya! Aya, wait! Aya!
Hey!
Nozomu! It's your turn.
Wait a sec!
Hey, what's your name?
Excuse me.
Aya!
Nozomu-kun chose you.
I'm so disappointed.
But he was kidding with me.
It's true!
Because... because after that he said "It can't be, what a surprise."
And then he said.. "Tell me the mail address of the girl who was with you".
Really?!
Hey over there, be quiet!
I'm sorry.
Did you really give my mail address to Nozomu?
I did.
That's great! I really like you, Mika!
That means he'll send me a mail, won't he?
Yeah.
It can't be, what should I do?
- Is it from him? What to do? - Hurry, hurry!
[It's me, Minami~ ;P V lol]
Hey, stop it!
- She fell for it! - Hey, that's mean!
And you call yourself friends?
You don't have to get so mad...
I don't have to?
I'm so envious.
Aya will get a boyfriend until summer holidays.
What can we do?
What shall we do?
Do your best, everyone!
There's only one week left!
What shall we do?!
Mika, Hana, Yuka.
Let's go somewhere during the summer holidays.
Sorry.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
"Are you okay?" he said.
Tatsuya spoke, what a surprise!
Bye bye!
Five, six, seven, eight...
I have reception here!
Will it come soon?
Yeah, let's go eat cherry pie!
But I'm in the middle of a diet!
I'll go to the library now, so go ahead.
Okay! See you tomorrow!
Bye Mika-chan! Bye bye!
Bye bye!
[To Nozomu-kun]
[... I'm Aya's friend... could you send her a mail?]
[...I think she'll be happy...]
Sorry.
Sorry!
Where is Nozomu?
What do you want from him?
Er...
...this. Can you give it to him?
Aiming for Nozomu?
A love letter nowadays?
That's not..
Could it be that it was your first?
Hiro...
Hiro was always a spontaneous person.
He always...
Suddenly captured me and left a stirred up strange feeling in my heart.
Like a raging stream which swallows everything with its flow.
Ah, gloss?!
No!
I ate tenpura.
Huh, that's not sexy...
Moreover, what do you think?
A mail from Nozomu came.
- I'm so happy! - Really?
That's great.
He gave it to him.
Eh?
Nothing. I'm also happy, in my own way.
I see. Thank you.
Mika, did something happen?
Aya climbed through Mika's window into her room again, as if she'd be living here.
Really, those two... They haven't changed since childhood.
Maybe they're discussing love problems?
Aya's problems?
I mean Mika's.
Mika didn't have any appetite during dinner, so I thought something was wrong.
Doesn't she have a stomachache or something?
Dad, if you treat Mika like a child forever...
The one who'll get hurt someday will be you.
Treat her like a child? But she is one.
With 20 years she'll be an adult.
If she's in love, she's already an adult.
Try to remember. We were the same.
As I was sixteen years old...
I began to like you, and then we two...
I don't remember.
Why?
Ah..
You were kissed?
Yeah.
Really?
Yeah.
Who was it?
Nozomu's friend with blond hair.
Hiro?
Is that his name?
Sakurai Hiroki.
Sakurai Hiro.
But Hiro has a girlfriend.
She's in Ikkouen High in the second grade, a super beauty!
They're totally in love.
They have matching bear straps on their cellphones.
I see.
Mika, are you okay?
I was played with again.
Though that was my first kiss.
Mika?
I'm okay.
It's from Nozomu!
I didn't like Hiro or something like that...
But I thought my heart scattered in pieces.
That's how much it hurt.
Though it's summer holidays, you're at home all the time.
Ah.. could it be you got a boyfriend?
And he doesn't like you or something?
It can't be, am I right?
You're not!
You're always too straightforward, mum.
What? How boring.
- Hey. - Yeah?
Who was your first kiss?
Eh?
What is it, suddenly?
Was it dad?
Yes.
Mum, you look away when you lie.
Eh??
It's okay, I won't tell dad.
Mika, it's your birthday after all, so let's go to see the fireworks.
But I might meet that guy called Hiro.
You may also meet someone else.
Hey, let's go!
Yeah.
Okay.
Huh? I think it was like this. The other way round? No, like that maybe?
That's why I said a yukata isn't necessary. [Yukata = summer kimono]
No,
Because if I don't do it every year, I'll forget it.
Your body became really feminine.
Stop it!
It's okay, I gave birth to you after all.
You mean you want me to lower the sum?
But we'll only barely make it with that sum.
[Universal Department] I understand that it was the expected sum because of your company's high substrate.
But can't you study it a little bit more?
Please stand up for me too, president.
[Tahara Ceramic - Representative Management Director - Katsuji Tahara]
I even borrowed a mortgage for my house...
That's how much I put on the line.
I'm sorry.
Please let me study it positively.
Yes.
Mika.
Fireworks?
Yeah. With Aya.
I see.
Shall I walk you there?
I'm okay.
A date with dad is ok sometimes.
Okay.
Let's go.
Don't come home too late.
I know, it's my birthday after all.
We'll properly eat the cake when I return, okay?
Yeah.
I'll also buy it properly. Fifteen candles.
Sixteen.
Sixteen.
Here's okay.
I see. Take care.
- See you. - Yes.
[Sakurai Motors]
Sakurai Hiro.
What? Hiro's new girlfriend?
Sis! Your phone's ringing!
Yes!
Yo!
Aya? Where are you right now?
Did you meet Tatsuya?
What do you mean?
Sorry, I suddenly got a cold.
Hey Aya, what is this about?
Your birthday present.
That bulky-looking Tatsuya easily agreed.
He's quite cool, believe me!
That's a bother.
If you want to forget something bad, a proper love is the best.
Aya!
It seems I'm a bother.
No, that's not it.
It may be unnecessary...
But I heard you were down, so...
Did you hear anything from Aya?
My first kiss was my dad.
One week after my birth.
I thought it was someone scarier.
Beautiful!
One birthday cake, please.
Okay.
I didn't think you'd come this year, Tahara-san.
I was a bit busy with work.
The "ka" character of Mika's name is quite difficult, isn't it?
Why am I so used to it?
It's a name which will bring happiness. [The first Kanji of her name means beauty and the second esteem.]
Hey, don't be stingy, please.
Yes, yes.
Is Yakisoba okay?
Yes, thank you.
Eat first.
Yeah.
Let's eat.
What?
Something's stuck. Green laver.
Eh?
She's mine.
Let's go.
Wait!
Hey! Wait!
Move it!
Let go!
Why did you do that?
Because I like you, of course.
Is it so much fun to ridicule me?
Though you have a girlfriend.
I broke up with her.
Liar!
Though you kissed her.
You kissed her on the rooftop.
Because she wouldn't break up if I didn't kiss her.
It's strange to kiss though you're breaking up.
Moreover that strap....
Your girlfriend has got the same, hasn't she?
It's a lie you broke up with her.
You don't remember?
The reason I don't remove this, is because it reminds me of you.
Remember.
This stitching.
One month after you got into high school.
[Please look at your sky]
Yes?
Who is it?
Mika.
Tahara Mika.
Where are you now?
In the library.
Ah, that's my cellphone. Wait.
But I have to go home.
Then leave it somewhere it can't be stolen.
Somewhere it can't be stolen?
On your favorite book's shelf.
Yes.
Then, it's the second shelf of the biggest bookshelf.
Thank you.
It's finished.
[Sky's book]
I hope he'll find you.
Do you remember it?
You suck at sewing.
But I was happy.
After that I always liked you.
Your birthday present.
How pitiful.
That flower is pitiful.
Sorry. Recover your good mood.
Stop it!
If you'd really like me, you wouldn't be able to do such things.
Even that selfish kiss, you wouldn't be able to do it.
I always...
Thought...
When I become a high schooler, I'll have a fantastic love.
I get to like him little by little...
Make good memories with him...
Go on the first date.
Walk beside him at the same pace...
Tell each other what we like...
Look at the same things...
And then hold hands the first time.
A kiss...
Only...
After some time passed.
I really wanted to treasure it.
Though I thought so...
Don't cry because of that.
Don't cry because of such bothersome things!
The worst.
That was my worst birthday.
Mika!
That Yukata looks good on you.
Oh.
What is it with Mika?
- Saori, please. - Roger.
It's the first time that happened.
Maybe something happened at the fireworks?
Mika. I'm coming in.
What happened?
Mika.
The worst guy told me he likes me.
The worst?
I don't quite know,
but he suddenly messes around.
I see.
Why did you decide he's the worst though you don't know him?
Did you try to know more about that person?
Don't judge people by their appearance.
That person is the first one who told you he likes you?
Yes.
Then you should be thankful for his feelings.
Hiro was the first who told me he likes me.
Welcome home.
I'm back.
Well, shall we begin?
Let's begin.
Happy birthday to you!
Happy birthday, dear Mika!
Happy birthday to you!
Do your best!
- Congratulations! - Thank you!
Hiro was my first at everything.
[From Tatsuya: Are you okay?]
I, during the summer...
[I'm okay. I just got home. That Hiro is a bad guy, isn't he?]
I was thinking about Hiro all the time.
It's hot!
Mika, good morning!
It's been a long time!
Good morning!
Good morning!
- Aya... - Eh?
Your eyes look weird.
It can't be.
It's make-up, make-up!
With that, I'll get Nozomu!
Your eyelashes are falling off!
What can I do?
Fix it!
Finished?
Hey Mika, it's been a long time!
What are you doing?
What is it? You can at least greet me.
[Saki]
- [Delete Saki?] - [Yes]
[Saki deleted]
Do you trust me now?
It's impossible after all.
You and I are too different.
But...
Thank you.
For saying that you like me.
Thank you.
That's how he looks like when he laughs.
I'm going out with Nozomu.
That's great, Aya.
You're next, Mika.
Try to seriously think about Tatsuya-kun.
You're right.
Eh?
I will.
Hey, what do you want?
I'm lending Mika Tahara for a while.
Hey!
Hey, wait!
What are you thinking?
Why are you always so pushy?
Okay, let's fly! Hold on.
Where are we going?
Huh, what?
Where are we going?
That's a secret!
We're here.
Mika.
I found the best birthday present.
Eh?
This time it'll make you happy.
Hiro, that was the first time...
You walked at my pace.
Our shadows were lined up beside each other almost the same.
As if they got close.
As if they were declaring our future.
Look.
That's my present.
Say...
Why do you like the sky best?
Do I need a reason for liking it?
I think you don't need a reason for liking something.
Mika, you told me, didn't you?
Little by little you said.
Walking at the same pace...
Telling each other what we like.
I know what you like.
That's why this time...
It's my turn to tell you what I like.
That's why I brought you here.
This is the place I like most.
This river is the place I like most.
Because it only moves forward...
And it is strong.
Hiro you are like a river.
It seems like they're getting close.
My and your beloved things are getting close.
I started to change.
No...
For sure I started to be dyed in Hiro's color.
The sky which should have been the same as always seemed like a totally different one.
Just because we were looking at it together it looked a thousand times more beautiful.
Say, Hiro.
You are no longer by my side...
But I still like the sky now.
