Oooohhh!
Hm?
Huh?
What?
Don't mess up your shoe boxes
Hmph.
What?
Hey, Kudo! You're running too slowly!
Go faster!
R-Right!
Let's go, Honda!
All right! That's good!
Don't forget how it felt just now!
Senior, here you go.
Thank you.
Your skill level is improving quite a bit.
You see, we definitely cannot lose this next match.
So, I would like to have some more practice time to get our formations right.
Yeah.
Jealousy
Hiroshi-kun!
Oh, Yuuko!
Going home already?
Yeah. What about you?
I have to tidy these up first.
Okay, I'll wait for you at the school gates.
Yeah.
Oh, that's right!
Yuuko, can you buy tickets before we go to the theme park?
To that newly-built theme park?
Yeah. I'm sure that your father's company has a partnership with them.
Oh, I see! Then if I ask my father, I'm sure it will all work out.
Sorry to bother you! Well then, I'll leave it to you!
Ma-Maririn!
Are you okay with that, Yuu-chan?
With what?
Who is Naganuma-kun going to the theme park with?
Recently, there has been gossip about him having an affair.
An affair?
An affair is― Could it be that kind of affair?
Does that word have any other meanings?
Well, I heard that the soccer club manager...
Ah! Yuu-chan, it's that girl!
But I wonder if our club members will understand.
Please do anything needed to solve the problem.
It's only for one week.
She's pretty cute.
Kugayama Natsumi of Class 2 in Year 1.
Boys like younger girls.
Second graders are already old ladies.
You better watch out!
B-but...I don't think that will apply to Hiroshi.
You don't understand at all.
Serious hard-working people are likely to cheat on you.
Oh no...
But as you know, Naganuma-kun is kind to everyone.
T-That is correct.
And in addition, doesn't that keychain mascot on her bag look like Naganuma-kun?
I-It can't be.
It doesn't look like him at all!
You're wrong! That has to be him!
Be careful!
W-Wait a sec! Maririn!
An affair? I am right to believe in you, Hiroshi-kun, right?
Hiroshi-kun belongs only to me, right?
Hiro―
Yuu-chan, do you want to go home together?
W-Well, today is a little...
You're waiting for Hiroshi-kun, right?
Why you!
In that case, the obstacle should just go home.
Sorry, Taka-chan.
Hiroshi-kun... He's late.
Sorry to have kept you waiting!
You're late!
We had a long club discussion.
Geez! I was thinking of going home before you!
Just kidding!
Kugayama.
Ah! Naganuma-senpai!
How was the baseball club?
I managed to solve the problem with them.
We decided to hold our club practices on Monday and Thursday, or Monday and Friday.
Hmm... That arrangement doesn't suit us.
We need to get one more day for practice. I should talk with the athletics club.
Yeah, that's right.
What is it? What is it?
I don't understand anything they're saying.
The athletics club have a bit of a grudge against us because our club uses a large part of the ground.
Unlike the baseball club, we are quite weak.
We must make them understand by showing them how hard we are training for the next match.
Well, that's true, but will they understand us?
It'll be okay.
It'll all work out.
That band-aid... It's the one I gave to Hiroshi-kun.
You're right. After all, that's the only thing we can do.
Oh, Yuuko. You can go home before me.
It might take a while.
You were tired waiting for me, weren't you?
I kept you waiting before as well.
I see! Then I won't hesitate!
I excuse myself for going home before you!
What's going on with those two?
They're acting so close.
He put the bandage I gave to him on her!
Hiroshi-kun's girlfriend is me!
Father!
W-What?
Give me tickets to the theme park!
No way! No way! No way! No way!
That theme park belongs to your company, right? Just get me some advance tickets at least!
I'm not getting tickets just so you can date with our neighbor Hiroshi.
Why are you so stingy?
I'm fine with being stingy!
Being stingy is a virtue.
Thousand-year section leader!
Being a section leader is fine. It's great. He is more powerful than the group leader.
As I expected, your mother understands the situation very well.
If you are really great, it would be easy for you to get the tickets.
He's such a jerk. Super-stingy.
Who is he taking to the theme park?
Recently, there has been gossip about him having an affair.
Kugayama!
Ah! Naganuma-senpai!
We decided to hold our club practices on Monday and Thursday, or Monday and Friday.
Yuuko, you can go home before me if you like.
You were tired waiting for me, weren't you? I kept you waiting before as well.
He can't be having an affair, right? Hiroshi-kun.
I think I got too angry with him.
Hiroshi-kun must be concerned about my attitude right now, right?
Yuuko! Yuuko!
You have a phone call!
Phone call!
I'm truly sorry.
I don't know what she's doing.
Oh, she's coming right now.
Please wait a little bit.
Hey, Yuuko, what were you doing?
What? Did you already go to sleep?
Y-Yeah.
Here. Hurry up and answer it.
Hello?
Hello.
Yuuko, it's me.
Oh! Hiroshi-kun!
Um... Well, I didn't call you for anything special,
but when you went home today, you didn't look very happy.
I was wondering, 'Why are you acting this way?'
Hiroshi-kun was worrying about me after all.
A-um...well, Maririn said something strange...
Oh, I have a call on the other line.
Please wait a bit.
Hello?
Oh! Hello.
Sorry, can you wait a bit longer?
Who is it?
It's someone from my club.
Who is it?
Hey, you saw her today, right?
The manager, Kugayama.
I'm sorry, I'll finish speaking with her soon.
I'll be quick, okay? Please wait.
Why? Why don't you make 'her' wait?
Is Kugayama-san more important to you than me?
Hello, Kawai residence.
Oh, Hiroshi-kun.
Please wait a bit.
Yuuko! You have a phone call from Hiroshi-kun!
Yuuko!
I don't want to answer it!
Tell him that I'm already asleep!
What are you saying?
Answer it properly!
I insist on not answering it! I'm not answering!
Geez, you're such a hopeless girl!
Well, then I'll hang up!
I'm sorry. It seems like she's asleep.
Y-Yes, I'm truly sorry.
Please don't take it personally. Please call again.
Yes. Good night.
H-Hey! Wait!
What was wrong with you yesterday after we spoke on the phone?
Did I do something wrong?
Tell me honestly!
What's with you? You could listen to Kugayama,
but you didn't want to listen to me!
Is it about the phone conversation yesterday?
It couldn't be helped. It was about club activities.
Club activities?!
I see. Then what did that have to do with Kugayama-san's bandage?
Eh? Bandage?
If you want to, please use these. These are my Cat Bandages.
Oh, thank you. Sorry to trouble you.
O-Oh! Those?
I gave it to her, so?
You gave it...
I gave those to you, right?!
Why'd you give it to her?!
It couldn't be helped! She was injured and I had nothing else!
What are you talking about? You don't understand at all!
What is it? What do you want to say?
Hiroshi-kun, you aren't even trying to understand me.
You only talk about what you want to do.
You're the one who doesn't understand!
Well, then, are you telling me that I cannot speak with Kugayama-san,
even when it is about an important matter?
So, if I am in a relationship with you, I can't talk to anyone else?!
Like Takako, Maririn or Hashimoto?!
That's not what I meant. You can talk to Taka-chan and Maririn.
But Kugayama-san is...
Hiroshi-kun! You're being too nice to Kugayama-san!
You treasure her more than me!
What do you mean? Don't you believe me?
What do you mean?! You're such a jerk!
I unintentionally had a fight with Hiroshi-kun...
I've never seen him look so scary before.
What should I do, Taka-chan? This has never happened before.
At first, I didn't understand what you were talking about, but now I see...
Don't say that without thinking!
I didn't think Hiroshi-kun would get so angry.
But, Hiroshi-kun is at fault, right?!
What? Are you jealous?
J-Jealous? T-That's not it! That's not it at all!
H-How can you act like you know everything?
Well... because I know.
It's jealousy, right? I'll tell you directly.
You are jealous.
How did you know that?
I felt that way in the past.
Because of you.
Taka-chan...
If you fall in love with someone, and you become jealous, it can't be helped.
But, to Hiroshi-kun, that becomes a heavy burden.
Well, shouldn't you just trust more in Hiroshi-kun and take it easy?
But...
You fool.
Why are you so stubborn about this?
That's why you had a fight with him.
If you think you are at fault, then apologize to him.
I see. You've always been the 'good girl,' so you have never felt the need to apologize to anyone.
Let me tell you that it is very important that you apologize properly.
I just understood that recently.
Anyway, stop being lazy. Hurry up and apologize, okay?
Bye!
She said I should apologize, but how should I do it?
When can I find a chance to do it?
Any chance, any chance? Can I find a chance?
It's no good! Nothing's coming.
I keep saying "chance," but I made Hiroshi-kun so angry.
It's not so easy to find an opportunity to apologize.
Yuuko!
D-Dad! Knock on the door before you come in, okay?
S-Sorry.
So, what is it?
I got you the tickets to the theme park that you asked me for the other day.
Ah! A chance!
Dad! Thank you!
As I expected from a section leader!
H-Hey! Don't tease me.
I don't mind if you play, but study hard!
Yeah!
With these, I can make up with Hiroshi-kun!
Huh? It's engaged.
He's there... Isn't he?
Could he be talking with Kugayama-san, again?
Is it already too late?
Hiroshi-kun, won't you forgive me anymore?
Do you hate me now?
Yuuko! Where are you going?
Over next door!
Hiroshi-kun...
W-What is it?
Are you going somewhere at this hour?
W-What about you?
W-What is it?
I-I tried to call you, but I couldn't reach you on the phone.
It was engaged.
What? I also tried to call you.
Could it be that...we tried to call each other at the same time?!
Like we were talking about earlier, I managed to get some tickets.
Actually, I managed to get some tickets as well.
Yuuko, is your schedule free for next Sunday?
Eh? My schedule?
Who would I go with but you?
Of course I'm free!
All right! It's decided!
Let's go there early in the morning!
Yeah!
But these two tickets will be wasted.
Let's invite Taka-chan and Hashi-san as well!
You fool! Let's go there twice!
Yeah!
Next Episode Report:
I was fine with you looking at me at the pool last year.
It's a bit different this summer because my chest and legs have become a bit fat.
This summer is a bit different.
My heart beats diffently this summer.
Blue sky. Sandy beach. Breaking waves.
Don't let him hate me!
