ronde without you
Um I-I...
I'm sorry!
D-Don't apologize you idiot!
B-But I ignored your feelings and I...
I love you Ayu.
Do you love me Ayu?
I...
I've loved you since a long long time ago too!
I think if you love me then I think I can love you back forever!
I don't really understand it but I think it's something like that.
Um...
What am I saying?
I shouldn't be saying things that aren't like me.
No my thoughts are exactly the same.
We've waited for seven years so we need to take back the time we've lost.
Yuuichi-kun...
Then let's meet here tomorrow after school too.
Like we used to.
Yeah.
Like we used to.
Welcome back.
Yep we're home.
Hey so Nayuki's helping Akiko-san today?
Yup.
So you met up with Ayu-chan.
Did you find the lost item?
Ah no not yet.
Right?
Y-Yeah.
Come on go get changed.
The bath is ready too.
I'll get in later.
You go take a dip first.
No I'll help out with setting dinner after I get changed too.
Don't worry.
The marathon's over so I should do something nice for my mother.
She's right.
Let's let the family be once in a while.
Right.
I'm sorry.
It's fine. Don't worry.
Let's go.
Well let's get to work.
Yup.
It's been a while since I last cooked with you.
Yup.
Let's make something you like tonight shall we?
Really?
You're late Yuuichi-kun!
Sorry I had some preparations to take care of today.
Preparations?
Cleaning up and stuff.
Hey don't put that face on.
We still have today and tomorrow.
Yep...
It really is a pretty place.
Such a nice breeze.
The sunset's nice but it'd be nice to see some other views too.
Yeah.
Yuuichi-kun I have two more wishes left right?
You'll grant anything you can right?
Yeah I promised you I would.
Are you really really sure?
I'm really really sure.
Are you really really really sure?
I'm really really really sure.
Then...
Good morning Yuuichi.
Yuuichi you're overreacting.
What's going on? You don't have morning practices anymore do you?
Practices for the next competition are starting already.
I'll be heading out now.
I'll see you in class.
Do you think you'll be back early today too?
Yup I think so.
You're early today too.
Yep since I want to be the first to show up to the class once in a while.
Is going to school that fun?
It is.
What for instance?
Let's see...
I guess meeting friends that I only see at school.
Is it?
Yep it is.
This is it then.
Don't forget the promise about after school.
Don't go following a stranger even if you're given taiyaki.
I'm not a child!
You are a child until you can solve cubic equations like a child's play.
Do you know what a cubic equation is?
Uguu~ Not really...
I don't either!
It's such nice weather.
You're late Yuuichi-kun.
Sorry I had cleaning duty.
Oh I see.
Then I guess you can't help that.
It'll get dark if we don't hurry.
Where do you want to go?
Of course that place!
"That place"?
Where could that place be?
Is it the shopping district?
You're always strolling around there.
Ah yes the shopping district.
All right. Then shall we go holding hands?
I don't want to. It's embarrassing.
Kissing is fine but it's embarrassing to hold hands?
That was um... Well...
Come on. If you don't hurry I'm going to leave you behind.
Wait!
I don't mind holding hands.
It's a little warmer now right?
Yeah...
We couldn't find it today either.
Maybe it's better that we don't find it.
What I'm looking for must be something I don't need if I'm happy.
So I don't mind if I don't have it now.
Besides if the need comes up I can look for it then.
Okay.
Note: "Boku" means "I" but with a male connotation. 0:08:47.240,1193:02:47.295 I've been wondering for a while but why do you always say "boku"?
Why? But I've always used "boku".
But you are a girl so why not something else?
Uguu~ What's something else?
How you refer to yourself.
For girls there are "watashi" or "atashi".
But I'd still go with "boku".
Try something else for a change.
Note: "Ore" is another form of "I" with a stronger male connation than "boku". 0:09:19.180,1193:02:47.295 How about "ore"?
Try it and it may fit you more than you think.
You got to challenge anything.
You're right.
Erh...
Ore Tsukimiya Ayu!
That's horrible of you! I did it because you told me to do it!
Sorry sorry.
Now give it a try with "atashi" this time.
Forget it I'll stick with "boku".
You might be fine now but you may face problems in the future.
For example at an interview when you're applying for a job.
"Uguu~ Boku Ayu."
Say that and you'll be cut instantly.
Then I'll try it once.
A-Atashi!
It wasn't that funny.
Yuuichi-kun were you just playing with me?
No I absolutely wasn't.
You just said "It's wasn't that funny!"
You see that was-
Just as I thought you're cute.
Maybe it's a little big.
That's not true it looks good-
Come in.
What are you do-
Wh-What do you think Yuuichi-kun?
A-Are you going to transfer or something?
It's my uniform.
She looks good in it doesn't she?
Nayuki-san lent it to me.
Yup since Ayu-chan's school doesn't have one.
Right?
The size isn't right.
Uguu~
Don't point out things like that.
Your school sounds like fun.
The uniform's really cute too.
Your school's nice and relaxed too.
I've never seen you studying.
As long as I study at school I can manage without studying at home.
Your school's inside the forest right?
Yep. At the end of the city up the top of the hill.
When did they build a school there?
Ayu!
Uguu~ It was cold out!
Sorry I didn't notice you were out there at all.
Don't worry; I'm the one that imposed on you.
So? You're here as a robber tonight?
Uguu~ A robber wouldn't knock.
Then what were you doing out there?
I just came to chat with you.
Then just come via the hallway.
But I might wake Nayuki-san up with the footsteps.
She'd never wake up from the sound of footsteps.
Come to think of it maybe not but...
You're such an idiot.
Uguu~ You don't have to be so blunt about it.
But that's what I like about you so I guess I'm equally an idiot.
Really?
Why'd you do that when you're so easily scared?
Because I wanted to see you.
It's lonely being by myself.
Are you cold at all?
I'm fine. What about you?
I'm starting to get used to the cold weather here.
Kinda sucks to think that I got forced to get in the groove.
Many things have happened since I transferred here.
We could have gone to the same school if you had transferred to my school.
I'd like to see your school once.
Then do you want to come to my school tomorrow after your school ends?
Yeah let's go.
Then we'll meet at the bench by the train station again.
Look forward to it Yuuichi-kun.
I'm off!
Have a safe trip.
Watch out for cars.
You're going out too Akiko-san?
Yes.
Ayu-chan make sure you lock up when you leave.
Yep. Have a safe trip.
Make sure you're not late to school taking your sweet time.
I'll be fine.
You're out early today.
Yes due to circumstances at work.
Come to think of it what does she do?
I've heard you don't remember things from when you were little.
No...
Then about what happened seven years ago too?
No not really.
I see.
I haven't come here since then right?
Is there something to that?
No it's nothing.
Only-
Only a tree got cut down and...
Yuuichi.
It's after school.
Yeah.
I'm off to school now.
I see.
Hey Yuuichi-kun.
If... for instance...
What would you do if my first love was you?
I'd ask you to change that this moment.
Why?!
It's often said that first loves don't come true.
Yuuichi-kun could you possibly be saying something really embarrassing?
Leave me alone.
Your face is red Yuuichi-kun.
It's because of the sunset.
What was your first love like?
I'm not sure if she's my first love or not but I had a crush on an older girl.
Oh someone older.
Other than that...
I don't remember well.
But I remember something really sad happening.
Something sad?
Nothing!
I'm talking to myself.
Don't worry it's in the past.
Ayu are you happy right now?
Yep I am.
But sometimes... I'm not sure.
Not sure?
I'm afraid of the happiness.
It's so frightening and I'm uneasy and it feels like the reality in front of me is actually all a dream.
You're thinking too much!
Yep...
Besides it doesn't suit you to give serious lines.
Uguu~
Don't tease me.
Now's not the same as seven years ago.
Even when winter ends spring comes and the snow melts I'll be in this city.
I'll be right by you.
Serious lines don't suit you either.
Well I'm sorry.
Your taiyaki's going to get salty.
Uguu~ I don't mind.
It'll be a nostalgic taste.
How long does it take to go to your school?
Like thirty minutes.
So it's a walk.
Let's hurry; it looks like it'll come down again.
So it's beyond here?
It's located at a really inconvenient place.
Yeah...
Hey is there really a school at a place like this?
Ayu.
There is one.
There definitely is one!
Ayu!
Hey are you sure about the directions?
I'm sure.
It's the school that I've been going...
I went to it today too and met my friends...
See you can see it now.
Beyond there is my-
No it's nothing.
Only a tree got cut down and...
No... way...
Why?
I was... Why?
I know this place.
School?
I was... was...
But... But I'm here!
Then... Why?
Am I not supposed to be here?
It's a joke!
It can't be!
This can't be true!
Ayu!
There was school today too!
So...
So!
Ayu what happened?!
What's going on?
I...
I have to search for it.
Hey!
Ayu!
Ayu!
Ayu!
Ayu what are you doing?
What are you doing?!
Searching for my lost item.
Lost item?
It's buried somewhere around here?
Yup.
Then we can look for it tomorrow when it's light out.
I can't.
Because...
...the night may never end.
Yuuichi-kun...
You have to find it right?
Yep.
Then let's hurry and find it.
We're a mess.
Yeah...
We'll search for it tomorrow too.
Let's see... your bag's...
I'm sorry Yuuichi-kun.
This is nothing.
I don't think I'll be able to meet you again.
We got to see each other again but...
It's been seven years since we last met but...
I'm really sorry.
Hey what are you saying-
Ayu!
I don't think I'll be able to meet you again.
We got to meet again but...
It's been seven years since we last met but...
I'm really sorry.
I'm sorry Yuuichi-kun.
Here?
I'm sorry Yuuichi-kun.
I promised that I'd grant anything that I can.
So it was a dream.
Don't keep dreaming. Hurry and wake up.
You're late Yuuichi-kun.
You're right. We're a family.
