Not like that. When you kiss someone, you should close your eyes.
This can't be!
Ryo and I kissing?
This isn't a dream.
Ryo is trying to kiss me.
Ryo is... with me!
Why is this happening to me?
Why?
With me?
My Love For Tonight Only Cinderella Story in the City
Yes, if I hadn't seen Eriko then...
Wow! This one looks great. Yes, if I hadn't seen Eriko then...
Wow! This one looks great.
Hey, look! Look at that one, Ryo!
This one... I wish I could wear it just once.
Are you going to go buy it or not? Hurry up and decide. I'm waiting for you.
What? You promised to go shopping with me today, didn't you?
You already bought so much. I think that's enough.
That one looks good too!
It looks so pretty. I can't stop sighing just looking at it.
Do you like this one, Kaori?
Really, Kaori! It's me!
Eriko?!
Long time no see!
Really! How long has it been since I last saw you?
Kaori, you haven't changed a bit.
You too, Eriko.
No, you're even more beautiful than when you were in high school!
Kaori, are you shopping by yourself?
No, well, I have someone with me...
What? Ryo?
Miss!
Hey, let's have a cup of tea together.
Hey, wait a sec.
Doesn't he have anything better to do than to chase women?
He's pretty cute, isn't he? Is he your lover, Kaori?
Oh, no. No way, not that jerk.
He's sort of a co-worker.
That's it.
Incredible!
I didn't know that this is your shop.
Yes, though my parents helped me with most of it.
Your high school dream of becoming a fashion designer came true.
If you find anything you like, just let me know.
It's okay. I'll take you upstairs and totally coordinate it.
Totally coordinate?
Once you change your looks suddenly, your boyfriend will die from love!
He's not my boyfriend. I already told you that.
Stop pretending. Your taste hasn't changed a bit since high school.
Is that so?
You look good with that on.
But I'm a bit embarrassed wearing feminine clothes like these.
No you're not.
This one might be better.
Eriko, you love taking care of others like this.
You're just the same as you used to be.
We're even now, aren't we?
Hey, hey, it's just a cup of tea. It's not a big deal, is it? Hey!
Really! What a pest!
Are you all right?
How gentle you are! How beautiful your smile is!
This must be fate! Why don't we go out for dinner together?
You never learn, do you?
All right.
What? Really?!
But not right now.
Tonight at 7 o'clock, at Sunrise Hill. How about that?
Sunrise Hill?
One more thing.
I don't want to go out with someone who dresses like a geek.
Wear these and make sure you come looking a bit better. See you.
What?
Sorry to have kept you waiting, Kaori.
Where have you been, Eriko?
I put on so much makeup that I don't feel like myself.
What are you talking about?!
This is your real beauty.
You just haven't recognized it yet.
No way!
Yes, way.
Put this on.
You look great, Kaori! See, look in the mirror.
Me? My real beauty?
Hey, Kaori, do you realize it?
The eyes of the men in the room...
All of them are looking at you. They're all crazy about you.
What do you think?
You say so, but...
If you like someone in here, why don't you ask him out?
You might be able to get lucky with a marriage.
Don't be ridiculous! I don't want to.
Then I guess you have someone in mind already, don't you?
Is the mokkori guy I saw a little while ago the one?
No way!
There's no way he's it.
You're being silly, Kaori. You won't be able to claim his heart that way.
You need more self-confidence.
You have to go for it when the time comes, or you'll regret it later.
Eriko...
Well...
Excuse me, but I need to go to the bathroom.
I'm going to disappear now. It's almost 7 o'clock.
Good luck, Kaori!
She's late. I wonder what she's doing?
Your friend already went home.
Oh, no, without telling me?
Excuse me, but I couldn't stop myself from speaking to you.
You're so beautiful, as if you were Aphrodite herself.
Who are you?
Would you please accept this present from me?
Roses!
Next to you, nothing compares to your beauty, not even these roses.
Let me buy you a drink.
No, thank you. I'm going home now.
Wait.
You are my gravity.
Just as the Moon stands beside the Earth, I won't be far from you, ever.
Disgusting! Who the hell is this guy?!
Just one drink then, and I mean only one.
My pleasure.
Please.
Thank you.
To our encounter.
Cheers.
Ryo!
What's he doing here?!
You! Why did you do that for no reason?!
That's what I wanted to ask you about.
You put a sleeping pill in her drink. What are you going to do now?
I abhor violence!
Really! These days,
even a high school girl wouldn't be fooled by such an obvious trick.
You weren't being very careful and that's why he tried that on you.
What are you talking about? You...
Or might you be a young lady who knows little about the real world?
The clothes you're wearing appear to be of high quality.
It's not good for a lady like you to be in such a place so late at night.
He... He doesn't recognize me?
How about spending some time with me?
I was waiting for somebody here, but I guess I've been forgotten.
Waiting for somebody?
I see, Eriko was...
First of all, I'm sure that Ryo wouldn't dress like this himself.
Eriko planned to set Ryo and me up on a date together.
She puts her nose in everything.
But I can't believe that this jerk doesn't recognize me!
Well, if you don't want to, it's okay.
You're a daughter who ran away from home?
Yes, I wanted to see the outside world by myself for once.
If someone from my family finds me, I'll be taken back home immediately.
Would you please protect me and prevent me from being taken back?
Just for one day, today.
I want to have a memory of freedom.
You're lucky to have met me. It'll be my pleasure to help you.
Really?! Thank you!
I can't believe it's really happening. Ryo and I are on a date.
My name is Ryo Saeba. I'm twenty years old.
Twenty years old? You're still lying like that?
Nothing. You're younger than you look, Ryo...
Mr. Saeba, aren't you?
Call me Ryo, just as if we were lovers.
Lovers?
We'll be lovers just for tonight.
Lovers just for tonight...
Well, I'll go with you anywhere you want to, my lady.
Anywhere would be...
I have a good idea, Ryo! Please take me somewhere you'd like to go.
Hotel 91
He can't think of anything other than this?!
You're in luck. There are two vacancies tonight.
Let's go.
Oh, no, I can't believe I'm with Ryo in a hotel like this.
Hotel?
Ryo...
Kaori...
No, no! What was I thinking?!
Excuse me, but is this the place you like going to?
It sure is.
What is this place for?
You know, right?
What? I have no idea.
Well, then, I'm going to give you a hint.
Ta-da!
Wow!
What a gorgeous bathroom!
That jerk! I can't believe he wallows in such luxury all the time.
Let's take a bath and clean you up!
And wash here and wash there...
I get it!
This is a spa, isn't it?
Please use this to cool yourself off with.
Ah, thanks.
Are you all right?
Smothered...
Shall we watch TV?
Damn, this is getting worse and worse.
Mokkori!
Crap!
Mokkori sexy thighs!
Fire!
Ryo, are you all right?
I'm glad it turned out to be a small fire.
I lost a very rare chance.
Did I go a bit too far?
Well, let's go.
Let's start the date over again.
Right! Go! Go!
We're walking together just like real lovers! Ryo and I...
Ryo and I...
I?
Is something wrong?
No, nothing...
Hey, Ryo, why don't we go to a disco and dance?!
Ryo's smiling at me.
But it's not really me!
Ryo is not dating me.
It's not me.
Well, it's time for a slow dance now.
But...
Ryo is not really holding me.
I...
What kind of stupid thing am I doing?
If I knew that I felt this way, I would've told him that it's me.
But if he learns that it's me, Ryo's smile will disappear.
I'm going to put a stop to this.
Are you not feeling well? You've been awfully quiet.
Oh, it's nothing.
Before we came here, I made a reservation at the hotel over there.
I doubt there'll be any more fires today.
I'll warm you up in a nice room where we can look at the sea. Let's go.
Wait, wait a second.
Well, I...
Have to go! It's close to midnight.
I...
I'm leaving Japan tonight. That's right!
I'm going to school abroad.
Going to school abroad?
Yeah, that's right. Going to school abroad?
Yeah, that's right.
I have to be on board a ship that's leaving port shortly after midnight. It's that one.
If it was such an important thing, why didn't you tell me earlier?
Because I was having too much fun, so...
I couldn't tell you that I'd have to say goodbye at midnight.
I see. I've finally learned your real name.
You're Cinderella, aren't you?
Just like Cinderella,
the magic will disappear and you'll have to return to being the real you.
The magic will disappear.
Thank you, Ryo,
for giving me a wonderful memory of freedom before I leave Japan.
I won't forget about tonight, ever.
Midnight, it's the farewell bell.
Not like that. When you kiss someone, you should close your eyes.
Ryo and I kissing?
But Ryo isn't kissing me as me.
No, I don't like it.
But... but...
But!
Magic time is over.
The bell has finished ringing, Cinderella.
Goodbye, Ryo.
And then you came home?!
What an idiot!
Don't you understand why I went through all that trouble?
It's okay, like this...
I'm...
I'm me.
I'm sorry, Eriko. I lost one of the earrings somewhere.
It's okay. It wasn't that expensive.
Kaori, what are you talking about? What's that in your pocket?
This is it. Why is this in here?
Cinderella in the city...
