Attention Platform 1.
A train is passing through.
Please stand behind the yellow line.
It's Yamato-kun!
Wow, he's really in a magazine.
He made his debut as a model.
It's kind of lonely, isn't it?
Yamato-kun.
We saw you in "Dessert."
Oh, thanks.
If you're going to be in the magazine, I'll have to buy it again.
It was just this one time.
What?
You're not going to keep doing it? What a waste.
Thanks.
Good morning, Mei.
Morning...
They seemed like a real couple.
They were so pretty. So radiant.
She's probably the one who belongs at Yamato's side...
Look, look!
That's amazing! You're really in here!
Megu-tan looks good in checkered clothes.
Yamato, you were like a different person then.
Enough already. It's embarrassing...
What? But you were so handsome, right, Mei-chan?
Huh?
Right?
Yeah. You looked handsome.
Really?
You really thought so?
You're persistent...
Amazing.
Aiko-san.
Yamato's finally made his appearance in a national magazine.
You'll have a lot to deal with, Tachibana.
Hey, Megu.
Mei, do you have work today?
No.
Then, let's go home together.
I'll meet you after class.
Okay.
Yamato.
Huh? What?
You're in that much of a rush to see Tachibana, eh?
Thanks for the notes.
Do you have a problem with that?
No.
Yamato-kun.
Uh, um...
They want him to keep modeling?
Since the magazine went on sale,
they've been receiving tons of inquiries about Yamato-kun!
The editor wants you to be in future issues.
Yamato, that's amazing!
Are you seriously going to be a model?
No, I told you...
Please.
They'll pay you, and you can quit any time you want.
Mei, what do you think?
Uh, well...
I think it's a good thing.
It's amazing they're asking you to work.
And it's not something you get to do very often.
I know, right?
Do it. Do it.
Yamato-kun, I'm sure you'll be successful!
I guess I can do a little more, then.
Hooray! It's decided, then.
Say, do you think we could get some work, too?
I'd love that!
Something lovey-dovey.
All the pictures are so cute.
Especially the ones where you're squeezing Yamato.
What? That's kind of embarrassing.
Are the photo shoots always after school?
No. Sometimes they're in the morning or on Saturday.
You guys are busy.
I know! Let's go hang out right now!
That's sudden.
Well, you're going to be busy from now on.
We won't be able to hang out as much.
What are you really trying to say?
I want to hang out with Megu-tan.
Takeshi!
Then let's go to karaoke.
Yeah, let's go.
Oh, but Mei-chan doesn't like karaoke...
Oh, right. Then...
I'm going home.
What?
You said you didn't have work today.
I just can't. Sorry...
Attention platform 1 and 2. The train is arriving.
Please stand behind the yellow line.
We had so much fun yesterday.
Megu-tan's really good at singing.
Really?
Okay?
Yamato-kun?
During the photo shoot... What was it?
Don't think about it so much. Just try to have fun.
The important thing is to act the part.
That sounds difficult.
Oh, Megu-tan!
Please shake my hand!
What? You want a handshake from someone like me?
Of course!
I-I'm so honored!
Keep up the good work!
We're rooting for you!
Thanks.
Kitagawa, you responded to them well.
Yeah, because they're willing to like someone like me.
I'm grateful.
You're a nice girl.
You think so?
Okay, tell me the five rules for a photo shoot I just taught you.
Huh? Um...
The first one is, uh... What was it?
Mei, let's eat lunch together.
Okay.
I'll invite Asami-san.
Just the two of us.
Yamato, you're going to keep working as a model?
I look forward to it.
Thanks.
Should we go outside?
Are you sure about this?
Yeah. I wanted to be alone together.
It's the same as always.
There's some fruit in there today.
What is that?
Huh? It's nothing...
Show me.
S-Sorry.
Cookies? Did you make these?
Nagi-san taught me.
But it's still a work in progress.
They have no taste, and may potentially kill you.
The cookies are mine.
Don't!
You're not dying.
Make them again some time.
You really might die next time.
That's okay.
If I feel like it.
The chime's ringing. Let's go back.
Okay.
Asamicchi, try making this pose.
Like this?
You're my angel.
Good luck at the shoot!
Good luck!
See you later!
Let's go, Yamato-kun.
Mei! I'll text you!
Keep it together!
Work hard!
Sorry you haven't been able to go home together recently.
With Mei-chan.
You don't need to apologize.
Really?
Yeah.
May they come out tasting good this time.

Is it a boy?
No!
Composing Message To: Mei Sub: Going Home We just finished
Yamato-kun, are you going straight home?
Well, I am hungry.
Do you like curry?
Huh?
Yesterday, I accidentally made too much.
About ten servings, even though I live by myself.
I can't eat all of it myself, so would you like to have some?
Finished checking for messages You have no new messages
I'm really grateful you came.
I've been eating nothing but curry since yesterday.
This is it.
Have a seat.
Okay.
I bet you think it's messy.
No...
I'm kind of surprised.
See? You do think it's messy.
It's a little run down,
but there are nice things about living here.
The view at dusk...
I usually come home at night,
so I don't get to see it very often.
Thanks for the food.
This is good.
Oh, good. I even have curry potato salad.
You made all of this?
You can even make croquettes with leftover potato salad.
I see.
Thanks for the food.
I think there's something wrong with what's on your plate.
My grandmother does some farming,
so she sends me a lot of cabbage.
I save money on rice,
and it even has way fewer calories than rice.
Curry cabbage is pretty good.
So you worry about calories.
Well, it's my job to have people look at me.
I'm just an amateur model right now,
but someday I'll be a real model.
Leaving home and living on my own
while attending high school is really scary...
But I thought it would be better to be on my own sooner.
Do you want seconds?
Yeah, okay.
Okay.
I save my money and cook for myself.
I thought preparing my own meals would make me
better at cooking and harder on myself.
That's amazing.
It's not amazing.
My mom worked nights, so it's been like this since I was little.
It's been a long time since
I've eaten the food I made with someone else.
Thanks, Yamato-kun.
No, thank you for treating me.
Uh, um... Maybe from now on, after work...
We could eat dinner together?
Sure, if you don't mind eating with me.
Received Message From: Kurosawa Yamato Sub: Shoot Over! I just got home
Composing Message To: Kurosawa Yamato Sub: Re: You're la...
Composing Message To: Kurosawa Yamato Sub: Re: Good work. =^.^=
Sending
Sorry.
It's okay.
Yamato's been spending all his time with Megu-tan.
He can't help it. It's his job.
On Sale Today
Kitagawa's with Yamato again.
From: Kurosawa Yamato Sub: Work's Over I'm on my way home now Spring fashion's fun! I hope winter ends soon (x_x)
I'm bored.
Why?
Yamato's been acting cold lately.
Models really are busy, aren't they?
Mei-chan?
What's that about?
I wonder what's wrong...
Probably had to go to the bathroom.
Yamato-kun did?
Isn't he going out with Tachibana?
But I heard that he was seen leaving Megu-tan's house.
What?
Actually, that makes more sense.
I guess.
Crap.
There you are!
Mei-chan!
Listen, Aiko-chan gave me coupons for all-you-can-eat cake.
She said they have over 30 varieties.
They even have pizza. So on the way home, I thought we could...
Huh?
Mei-chan?
Mei-chan, what's wrong?
Wow. Even Tachibana cries.
Aiko-chan!
It's nothing.
If it were nothing, you wouldn't be crying.
What's wrong?
It's nothing...
Mei-chan.
It's nothing.
Really.
Mei-chan...
If it really is nothing, don't make that face!
Go cry where you can be alone, dummy!
Asami's worried about you!
Aiko-chan, don't!
If you're going to be like that, don't bother anyone else!
Aiko-chan!
Sorry, Aiko-chan.
Mei-chan, I'm sorry.
I knew...
I knew then, and that other time.
I should have asked you what was wrong.
Now, you're crying by yourself.
It must have been hard.
If I can be of any help, you can tell me anything.
Just like you helped me, I want to help you.
I was frustrated. I cried, and it was embarrassing,
but I ended up telling them.
Even all my stupid feelings. Everything.
I didn't know he had gone to Megumi-san's house.
But I thought there's no reason Kurosawa
would say anything to make himself look bad.
I want to trust him, but I can't.
I've been worrying about it by myself.
That's an emotion unique to girls.
You've felt it, too?
Of course.
Even when my boyfriend just talks to other girls, I worry.
I get sucked into my own negative aura.
In my case, I wasn't just imagining things.
I've actually been cheated on more times than I can count.
Aiko-chan.
But there's nothing wrong with worrying.
It's kind of like a wall you need to overcome
to make it to the next level.
If you're running up against that wall,
it means you're moving forward.
I wonder how many walls I've broken up until now.
If you don't move yourself, you'll never get anywhere.
You like Yamato, don't you?
Don't think about the positives and negatives of liking him.
Use your words and actions to show him how you feel.
You can worry after that.
I...
I really...
Mei.
Really...
Episode 7 - I Really Love You
I wonder if Yamato remembers me.
Before I knew it, I was kissing him!
It's still only lukewarm.
If you don't tell him your feelings, he'll never know, meow.
What am I supposed to do now?
Listen to your cat, meow!
