Rui Hanazawa is in my arms.
I've yearned for him for so long.
And no matter how cold he was to me...
...I couldn't turn away from him.
If he even smiled a little at me during those hellish days...
...I was able to forget my pain.
To think that that very Rui Hanazawa is in my arms...
Night of Betrayal
I was living with Shizuka in Paris.
Her expression when I suddenly showed up at her apartment...
...I'll never forget it.
Rui!
It was the first time in my life...
that every single day was filled with happiness.
We talked deep into the night about when we were kids.
And we strolled the streets of Paris without care.
Oh, and we even talked about you.
About me?
Yeah, Shizuka said that she really liked you, Tsukushi.
Shizuka...
But...those happy days were short-lived.
Shizuka started college again.
During the day she went to school...
and at night she worked as a secretary to a lawyer.
Bye, Rui. I'm going.
From the time the door closed until it opened again...
I twiddled my thumbs alone.
I thought of the time you first told Tsukasa off.
Me?
You walk around like big shots...
but you're all protected by your fathers' names.
You've never worked for your money.
So quit mouthing off!
It was true. I realized that once I left our school...
...I wouldn't be able to do a thing.
Did you know that, long ago...
...I was a severely introverted problem child?
Huh? Oh...yeah...
I'm still the same...
...A kid that can't do anything for the woman that I love.
I'm sorry.
Why did I tell you all of this?
I wonder why I always end up talking to you...
...about stuff like this...
Things that I can't even tell my friends.
M-my pager!
Y-yikes. How do I turn this thing off?
Give it to me.
"Come back. Where are you?"
Oh, no. I forgot!
He's worried about you.
I have to go back.
What about you, Rui Hanazawa?
I'm going to stay here.
But...
I'm fine now.
Tsukushi...
Thanks.
Why am I feeling this way?
I wish I could stay with Rui Hanazawa longer.
Where were you?!
Oh, my. The gang's all here.
Not, "oh, my." Where were you?
I-I couldn't sleep so...
Er...I went for a walk by myself.
Damn...I told a lie.
That's why we told you not to worry!
This guy is something else.
He storms into our rooms and screams that you're missing.
He panicked thinking that a wave washed you away. It was pathetic.
Hey! She doesn't have to know that!
Well, we've got an early morning. Let's hit the hay.
We were already hitting the hay, you jerk!
Tsukasa!
Sorry.
At least leave a note next time, will ya?
Never mind. Let's go to bed.
That's not what happened.
It's not true.
I had Rui Hanazawa in my arms at the beach.
I couldn't walk away.
I'm sorry.
Here I go!
Yah!
Sojiro!
Got it!
Yes!!
Wow! Cool!
Sheesh! And this is the plainest one they had?
That's why I hate designer clothing.
Damn!
I won't let you guys score again!
Don't say that until after...
...you score!
Tsukasa!
Yah!
They are sooo cool!
And we get to see these four play volleyball...yummy!
It's true...they do look cool.
Why don't you girls come and play, too?
What? We don't want to get a tan so we'll pass...
Right?!
I'm in.
You gotta have some fun.
Look how blue the skies are.
What's she getting all riled up about?
Hey, let it go, Sojiro.
She's good at tripping you up.
I heard that! Come on! Let's go!
Okay. But I won't show you any mercy!
I was hoping you'd say that.
Yah!
Tsukushi!
Got it!
Yahhh!!!
Whoa.
Yeah!
Wow, you go, girl!
You know it.
Cool! Tsukushi!
Hey, Rui. We're not going to take this.
Yeah.
All right, let's plan.
Plan?
Huh? Hey, you dropped something.
Huh?
She forgot that last night when we were talking on the beach.
Can you give it to Tsukushi for me?
On the beach?
Er...I went for a walk by myself...
Hey! Hurry up with the ball. What are you doing?
Rui!
Last night, when we were talking on the beach...
I was taking a walk by myself.
Tsukasa!
Oh, my.
Oh!
Tsukasa!
Are you okay?
What were you doing just standing there in a daze?
Maybe the heat has gotten to you.
Are you okay, Tsukasa?
You had us worried.
I'll bring something cold for you to drink.
Tsukasa, you should take your time getting up.
Tsukasa is okay. Let's take a dip!
Yay!
Rui!
What?
Are you...
What?
No, never mind.
You can go play on the beach, too.
Never mind. I don't have to.
But I wanted to apologize for what happened earlier.
Are you really okay?
Yeah.
It's really hot here.
But it's not sticky and humid like Tokyo. It's great!
Tsukushi.
What?
Where's your pager?
Huh? My pager?
Oh, no...
I had it then...
I must have dropped it somewhere.
But if he finds out that I was with Rui Hanazawa on the beach late at night...
I-It's...
...back at the room.
It suddenly went off when I was walking on the beach last night.
It caught me by surprise!
What's that?
What's that strange sound?
Hey! What's that?
Could it be...
Tsukushi!
Ka-Kazuya! Sakurako!
Oh, no! Rich kid!
Tsukasa!
Let me go!
-What's up with this chick? -Kazuya, how did you find us?
Your mom told us.
We came on the S.S. Aoike.
It took us two whole days.
Hey, rich kid!
Who gave you permission to come on this island?!
Well, since they're already here, it can't be helped.
The more, the merrier.
Thank you, brothers.
Who are you calling "brother"?
You bonehead.
Yikes!
It's been a while, Akira and Sojiro.
Ugh.
Wow. She's adorable, like a doll!
Maybe she's a star.
That's right. That's right.
It's not surprising that you think of me that way.
You don't even try to hide your true colors.
It's so romantic eating dinner at poolside.
Oh, yes.
I'm surprised you didn't get into an accident...
...in that dinky boat.
Yeah, but I'm glad we're here.
To be with all of you once again is like a dream.
By the way, Tsukushi. Big news.
Huh?
Shizuka Todo is in this magazine.
Wow! Shizuka is? You're kidding!
Uh, hello?
It's not unusual to see...
...someone like Shizuka in a magazine.
No. It says that some famous French guy...
...gave her a proposal.
What?
"gave her a proposal"?!
By proposal, do you mean...
You better not say contract documents.
Are you serious, rich kid? Let me see.
It says, "Shizuka Todo, daughter of Commercial Secretary Todo...
...was asked to be married by Jean Paul Mailleur...
...rumored to be the next presidential candidate."
W-wow...Shizuka's...
It can't be...
Possible marriage by the end of the year?
Are you serious?
Rui!
Did you know about this?
I did.
It was the talk of the town while I was still in Paris.
A-are you okay with it?
Shizuka might get married!
It's okay.
It's over. All of it.
So that's what happened.
Shall we see each other on the sly?
The reason he changed so much after he came home...
I'm just a kid...
...who can't do anything for the woman I love.
It's because he left alone and hurt.
All for Shizuka...
Tsukushi...
I said I'm okay.
Go back to your room and go to sleep.
You're crying?
Why should you cry?
Leave me alone and go back to Tsukasa.
I can't leave you alone.
Even if I try, I can't get you out of my mind.
I can't...I just can't!
Why can't you become happy?
Only thoughts of you fill my mind.
Why didn't I...
fall for a woman like you?
Since we got back from our trip...
...Tsukasa's eyes have a cold stare and it's more than I can take.
It's all my fault.
Please don't kick Rui Hanazawa out from the F4!
Next on Hana Yori Dango: "The Crime and Punishment of a Kiss"
Please...don't look at me with those eyes.
