runaway and kitty's fuga
fantasia of recollection
What business do you have at this hour?
Eh?
Well... I came to hang out!
Stop lying.
What's that in your hand?
U-Um...
I thought I'd make paper airplanes with you.
You don't need scissors to make paper airplanes.
I bet you were going to cut my hair or something like that.
Absolutely not!
Let's see... where's paper...
Ah there's some.
H-Hey!
Done!
And now...
There.
Whee! So much fun!
What have you done?! This is the homework I'm handing in tomorrow!
Was it something important?
I copied it off of Nayuki!
Am I going to hand this in tomorrow?
Good night.
God...
Strawberry jam. Strawberry jam. Strawberry jam.
You've always loved strawberry jam haven't you?
Yup. With Mom's strawberry jam I can easily eat three bowls of rice.
That's a scary thought.
Good morning Makoto.
You're up early today.
Auu~ She woke me up.
You're going to work at the nursery school starting today right?
You can't be late on your first day.
Part-time job eh...
One who does not work does not deserve to eat.
Give it a try.
Oh yes. How about we have her eat that to celebrate her first day at work?
What's that ?
My special jam.
You haven't tried it yet have you?
Yeah it's my first time.
Would you two like some as well?
N-No I'm full.
S-Same here.
It's got a strange smell.
She's spreading so much on...
All we can do is sit and watch.
Have a good meal and a good day at work.
Okay.
Itadakima~su!
Au!
So do you like it?
Auu...
Auu...
D-Don't look at me with those eyes that are begging for help.
Au.
Auu...
Auu~
You can eat all you want...
Auu~
...because there's plenty more.
Auu~
I wonder if Makoto is all right.
I bet she had to eat a ton; she can't say "no" to Akiko-san.
So cute...
That's an ugly cat.
That's not true! What's wrong with you?!
Wh-Why are you so intimidating?
I'm going.
Wait aren't you allergic to cats?
Yes but it's cute...
You touched a cat before and then you couldn't stop sneezing remember?
Cat... Cat...
Hey listen when others are speaking!
Cat... Cat... Cat...
So cute. So cute.
Cat. Cat. Cat. Cat.
I can't tell which one's the animal.
What's wrong Minase?
Did Aizawa pick on you?
No although he does always pick on me.
I get it; it's your cat allergy.
You were playing with a stray weren't you?
Yup. Yuuichi tried to stop me but I couldn't resist.
He fails as your guardian.
Speaking of him where did he go?
Hello Yuuichi-san.
You came by again?
Yes. I'm here again.
If you're that healthy why not come to class?
I'm fine walking around.
But the doctor says I still can't go to school.
Then stay at home.
You can come after you completely recover.
But staying home is only going to make me feel worse.
Yuuichi-san do you remember our promise?
Promise?
That you would make a snowman with me.
A huge one about ten meters tall.
I remember saying that I couldn't guarantee it being ten meters tall.
But I'm looking forward to it.
Aizawa you're not going to the cafeteria?
Sorry I already made plans.
Plans?
He's always running around.
And we got Minase like that...
We've got no choice.
How about lunch with just the two of us?
Are you all right Nayuki?
Shouldn't you get medicine from the health center?
Then I'll go too!
Please let me go!
So Mai how did it go after that?
Did it come out?
Hae?
"Yes" or "no".
No.
I see so there are days it doesn't come out.
What are you talking about?
We're talking about Mai's constipation.
Hae~
Mai do you want medicine for it?
Hey you're not denying it so Sayuri-san's believing me again!
I'm not.
Too late again!
Ahaha~ So it was a joke.
Sayuri-san it must be tough making all of this every day.
No not at all since I get up early.
Won't you become sleep deprived?
I go to bed early.
I'm in bed by eleven.
Eleven. That's way different from me.
Do you tend to stay up late?
I don't intend to but there's someone who tries to play pranks on me in the middle of the night.
Ahaha~ You must get along well with your family.
Not exactly but...
My tears finally stopped.
Learn your lesson and stay away from cats from now on okay.
I'll try.
Even if a cat should wander in during practice don't run towards it.
I don't have confidence I'll be able to resist if that happens.
It should be about time for Makoto's job to end.
Yuuichi-kun!
Um...
You surprised me falling over all of a sudden.
Um... I'm sorry.
I got it so get off of me.
Uguu~ This time it was my fault.
Surprise attacks from behind are too much for me to dodge.
I'm sorry.
We're both a mess.
You're right!
Yesterday's movie was really fun wasn't it?
Uguu~ Don't remind me.
What are you doing today?
There's only one reason for me to come here.
Eat and run.
No.
Searching right?
Do you remember what you lost?
No not yet.
I'd help you but I want to go home early today.
Sorry.
Don't worry. It's cold so I was thinking of heading home.
All right. See ya.
Yep. Bye Yuuichi-kun.
I wonder if Makoto's already home.
That back of the head which looks so hittable must be...
Do you want to take a picture too?
Yuuichi!
If you want one why not ask Ayu?
She should still be around.
I'm not interested in it!
Then why were you staring at it?
Weren't you envious?
I was only looking.
Only kids get excited over that.
You really are a kid being stubborn and all like that.
I'm not a kid!
If you don't have anything to do with me then I'm heading home!
Fine let's go home.
Yeah bye.
Hey we're going home to the same house.
Hey!
Hey is that Amano-san?
Want to ask if she wants to join in the picture?
But she's...
She took off.
She's so unfriendly.
Hey want to try this one?
So how was helping out at the nursery school?
I-It was easy.
I scolded them and also patted their heads when they were good.
That's hard to believe.
It's true! I worked hard!
Where are you going?
Let's go home together!
I don't want to go home with you!
Hey Makoto!
She's hopeless.
Oh yeah I had to buy a notebook.
Auu~
What are you sneaking around for?
I-I'm not sneaking around!
I have something to do over here too!
Stop lying. I bet you were up to something again.
No.
Ah I'm going this way so... see you.
Auu!
I thought you were going this way.
W-Well I actually had something to do over this way.
Just walk next to me.
Eh?
We're living in the same house so it's strange for us to walk apart.
We can go while we chat.
Auu~
You always say "Auu~" when you don't know what to say right?
I do?
You didn't know you were?
It's the cat from this morning.
Stop it. What's wrong with this cat?
Looks like it's taken a liking to you.
Why not pet it?
I don't want to. I've never touched a cat before.
You're completely opposite from Nayuki.
There. Hold it in your hand.
It's warm.
No...
I'll buy you a pork bun on the way back.
Really?
Yeah I promise.
Then just a little.
It's warm.
Auu~
Looks like it likes it up there.
Auu~
One each.
One for the cat too.
They smell good.
Auu!
My pork bun!
Give it back to me! That's mine!
Give me back my pork bun!
Give it back! It's my pork bun!
Give it-
Stop it.
Auu~
What are you doing sinking to the same level as a cat?
But!
You can eat this one.
There's still two left.
Oh yeah.
Your brain's at an animal's level too.
What are you going to do with that cat?
It'd be nice if we can take it home but Nayuki would be...
Why bother. I had my pork bun so I don't need it anymore.
How could you say that?
You don't think it's cute when it's taken such a liking to you?
All animals get thrown away when they are no longer wanted.
You don't think so?
Well there are people who think that way too but...
We should send it back to the wild before it gets domesticated and learns what peace is.
Return to the wild?
There it goes.
What are you doing?!
Wh-Why are you angry?
How can you be calm after doing that?
It could end up who knows where and die!
It'll manage somehow!
The truck driver might take care of it.
Why are you so irresponsible?!
What responsibilities do I have?!
It's the cat that followed me!
You idiot!
Auu...
You can't take back what you did even if you cry.
Yuuichi you jerk!
Hey Makoto!
Don't worry. She'll come back eventually.
She must be hungry right now.
You don't have to sympathize with her.
Those who don't respect an animal's life should reflect on their act alone.
But what if she never comes back?
Don't worry. This is the only home Makoto has.
If her memory comes back and she goes home then that's for the best.
Seconds?
Thanks for the food.
I'm going out for a bit.
Even if I were to search I have no clue where she'd go.
Now that I think about it I don't know anything about her.
Hey. There's something I want to ask... Can I?
What?
Remember the girl who tried to scare us wearing the curtain?
The girl you told me to stay with.
Did she come here at all?
She hasn't.
I thought so.
I didn't think she would but I had nowhere else to look for her.
She's gone?
Monomi Hill.
The hill that looks down upon the city.
She might be there.
Why would she go there?
Why do you know that?
I only feel that she would.
What is this about?
But it's not like I have anywhere better to search.
Monomi Hill eh?
I remember it being called that now.
There your pork bun.
This is the last okay? I don't have any more money left.
It's cold but it's still good.
You're so warm.
We're the same.
We're nuisances and have nowhere to go.
Let's go to sleep. I've been searching for you ever since the afternoon so I'm tired.
I'm really tired.
I see. So she was looking for you all this time.
I'm amazed that she found you.
Or did you return to the shopping district?
Hey Makoto you'll catch a cold.
Let's go home.
You're our family you know.
A fox?
Auu!
Where am I?!
Why am I here?!
Such a noisy girl.
Auu~
What's wrong Makoto?
Are you all right? You have to turn the light on when you go down the stairs.
Hey why am I back here?
That's because this is where you belong.
Eh?
As long as you've got amnesia this is your home.
So I'll bring back the bad child who runs away from home even if I have to resort to force.
You brought me here?
That's right. He carried you back home.
What about the cat?
It's sleeping in your room.
You're back.
You must be hungry. I'll prepare something warm right away.
O-Okay.
Makoto.
Makoto.
Makoto do you want to eat more?
Y-Yeah.
There are pork buns that Yuuichi bought too.
Let's heat some up and eat them later.
I bought them for your sake. So savor them.
For me?
Really?
Of course I'm joking.
But I'll let you have some so be thankful.
Yeah.
Good night Yuuichi Makoto.
Yeah make sure you make it to your bed.
In the end we stayed up late tonight too.
Well until your memory comes back you have to deal with how much you hate me.
You know when I was falling asleep on the hill I think someone said something to me.
That was me.
What did you say to me?
"Rest in peace" was it?
Don't kill me like that!
Whatever. I'm going to bed.
What is she doing in this cold weather?
She must be waiting for you.
Hey let's make paper airplanes.
See I bought a new manga. Let's read it together.
Is that bad?
Is it cute?
What?
Really?
Is it bad?
Is Makoto...
