On my side of the bed...

The pillow had slipped.

The sound of macaroni...

Smoothly sliding, just a little.

I shall wake you.

You can keep sleeping. Goodnight.
Wow! Shrimp!
Kids like shrimp, right?
I made too many for Yuzu's lunch, so everyone can have some now.
Now, now, don't be shy...
Eat up! Eat up!
Wow!
It's horrible! This is disgusting! What's with this fried shrimp?!
But, it's tempura...
What do you mean it's disgusting?
I don't want anything like that so early in the morning.
Water! Water!
Do you always make Yuzuyu-chan eat things like this?!
It's bad for her growth!
But, it's good!
How?
I said it's good so it's good!
That can't be!
I think something is wrong with your taste buds!
It makes me happy!
Yuzu!
Hey!
How you've accepted my love so easily...
You're a good girl! Good girl!
It's better than not having any!
Kokoro All Alone
Kokoro, you're moving today, right?
Yes.
It's only one person's things, so I'm sure you'll finish quickly.
Yes.
I'll deposit some money into your account every month.
So, let me know if there's anything else you need.
There's nothing... probably.
I wonder if she has something against me.
She always seems to ignore me and never makes eye contact.
I don't think so.
But...
She's always done everything by herself ever since she was little.
She seems to be better off on her own.
So, there's no need for you to worry about it.
I hope that's true.
Kokoro doesn't have a mother.
I made it on time!
Hey!
Kippei!
Oh hey, Natsu.
What's up?!
So full of energy this early in the morning.
What are you doing?
Basking in the sun?
Yeah...
taking a little break.
Then, me too!
Hey, Kippei, are you doing alright?
Yeah, I'm fine... a bit sleepy though.
I've been wanting a boyfriend lately.
What? Me?
Want me to be your boyfriend?
No way. I don't want you as my boyfriend.
Oh well...
Kippei, I know you like girls...
but even girls like to fool around with boys like you.
But in reality, there's a guy they're serious about.
At this rate, you're going to be all alone when you die.
Kokoro-chin!
Listen! Natsu is terrible!
She said some scary things.
Ah! Natsu!
Later, Kippei! Let's hang out again.
I won't hang out with you!
And?
What?
If you don't need anything, don't hold me back.
At this rate, you're going to be all alone when you die.
It does seem like I'll be all alone.
Kippei!
Can you go buy oil?
Doesn't it seem like everyone thinks that I'm at their disposal?
We're out because you used it all on the tempura this morning.
I'm going...
Kippei-onii-chan!
Are you going out?
Yep, I'm going shopping.
I want to go too!
Want to get ice cream with the change then?
Yay!
Then go get your hat.
Okay!
Ice cream... Ice cream...
Delicious ice cream...
I love ice cream!
When we get home you have to brush your teeth, okay?
Okay!
Huh?
Moving Service
It's Onee-chan.
Huh? Onee-chan?
What are you doing, Kokoro-chan?
Moving.
Ah, the "living alone" move?
Onee-chan, your name is Kokoro-chan? That's cute!
So, Kokoro-chan, where is your place?
Here.
Amazing! You're going to live here all alone?
My parents are rich, so...
Who would say that about themselves?
Yuzuyu-chan.
Should we visit with her for a while?
Yeah!
Go home.
But, isn't it hard suddenly living on your own?
My parents are newlyweds,
so I'm probably in their way.
See you later. I have some cleaning up to do.
Is Onee-chan really going to live here alone?
Seems so.
Being all alone is too lonely.
It seems her dad is getting remarried.
Kokoro is going to have to live by herself.
It's really complicated right now?
What about her mom?
Kokoro doesn't have a mother.
Being all alone is too lonely.
Kippei-onii-chan!
What's up?
I can make octopus shaped wieners now!
What's wrong?
I'm learning how to do origami in school right now.
But, I can't fold a crane well.
Will you teach me how to fold a crane?
That's impossible!
Kippei doing origami?
And, on top of that, a crane?
Hey, you over there! How insulting!
I can probably do it.
Probably?
Have you made a crane before?
I have!
At least, I think I have. Maybe not...
You don't seem very reliable.
Okay then, is it okay if we do it after we get home?
I'll teach you how to fold a crane then.
Okay!
It's a promise!
Pinky swear!
Pinky swear,
if I lie,
I'll swallow 1,000 needles.
I promise.
Kippei, since you made a promise, you have to learn how to fold origami.
A promise to a child must always be kept.
I know that!
We pinky swore!
It's already ten till!
We have to hurry!
I don't have socks!
Ask Mom.
Socks!
I'm going!
Kokoro!
Did your move go well?
Yep.
It's finished.
I would have helped you.
It's okay, I don't have much stuff.
Finally living on your own.
Hey, can I come visit you?
Sure. But, Aki, don't mess up my room.
Well, of course you're going to make a mess... Right, Aki?
I'll clean it up!
Really?
Really, really.
Oh yeah! Let's cook something good, okay?
Sure.
I'm okay with Kokoro's cooking, but I don't know about yours, Aki...
What's with that?
Hey, hey!
Can't I come hang out too?
Absolutely not.
Why?
What do you mean why? Don't try to act like her friend.
There's no reason why you should be at Kokoro's house.
That's mean.
Cheapskate!
You're too pushy.
I'm going to take a nap.
So, when should we make it?
I'm okay anytime.
Then how about we make it today?
What? Today?
I sweated a bit.
It's 4 o'clock!
I overslept!
Preschool is already over!
Why didn't anyone wake me up?!
Kokoro-chin...
You're still here? I overslept.
Oh no!
I forgot I made a promise about origami.
Bye!
Aren't you going home?
I'll go home.
Kokoro-chan, can I ask you one thing?
What?
Why don't you have a mother?
Nevermind. I shouldn't have asked.
She died when I was 6 years old.
I'm going home.
Wait!
Sorry.
Is this your family picture?
You're so young.
Don't touch it!
Kokoro-chan...
You don't really want to go home where you're going to be all alone, do you?
Don't you still want to live with your family?
Shut up!
Being all alone is too lonely.
Tell your parents!
Kokoro-chan, you're lonely.
Shut up!
Shut up! Everyone...
She seems to be better off on her own.
When did I ever say that I'm better off alone?
Even if I'm lonely, how could I say I am...
to them?
Kokoro-chan.
But, I was okay.
And why are you making me say this now?
S-Sorry.
I-It'll be okay,
when you come to school you have friends like Aki and Motoki.
They seem to care about you a lot.
And...
I'm here too.
No way!
Just because you can do it with other girls,
you think you can do the same with me?
If you want to be with me, then pay attention only to me.
I've been thinking since a while back...
You like me, right? Kokoro-chan...
Asou Preschool
Yuzuyu-chan,
your pick up is awfully late.
That's very strange.
I'll try calling your home right now.
Yuzuyu-chan, while we wait, let's fold origami!
Okay!
Let's fold a crane together, everybody!
Yeah, let's fold a crane.
Crane?
Here. You too, Yuzuyu-chan.
I can't fold a crane.

Why didn't you pick me up today?

What happened with Onee-chan?
Ki... Ki...
