-Senpai, when was the last time you kissed someone? -4 years ago?
-Chiaki-san? -Are you okay?
-You met your first love? -How about working for me?
When you have someone you like, your whole world will change.
I took your photo.
I'm going to be living with you from now on. I'm Touma.
So that means the 4 of us are living together?
Your lips look like a dried plum.
The kind of person who comes here to play around and do a half-assed job but acts like they're here to work...
I hate people like that the most.
I'm going to make him try my cake and take him down!
You've made up your mind even though you haven't even tried it. And you still call yourself a chef?
You wanted to kiss someone right? If you're satisfied, get the hell out of here.
Don't treat me like an idiot.
We don't need someone like her.
You know...you don't understand anything at all.
I understand you. I understand you well.
Turn up 30 minutes before we open the shop to clean the restaurant. Don't leave even a speck of dust behind.
Okay!
Sakurai!
It's because you're the way you are that I want you to stay
Stop the music!
"Music paused."
I'm back.
You're late. All I asked you to do was buy groceries and you took way too long.
What did you buy?
-Asparagus -I didn't ask for that.
I saw someone that looked like an asparagus.
She was tall and thin and moved like the wind...
Who?
Chiaki-san's fiancee.
Well, I guess it's not a huge surprise since this is Chiaki-san we're talking about...
I wonder if he'll introduce me to her soon...
"Sakurai, I'm marrying this woman."
Or something like that...
Good morning!
It's the asparagus!
It's been a while, Kanata-kun.
Sakurai, could I have a moment?
I still have some work to do-
It's fine, just do it later.
Okay.
I'll introduce you. This is Takatsuki Kaede.
-Nice to you meet you, I'm Takatsuki. -The pleasure is mine.
I want you to make a wedding cake.
I heard from Chiaki-san that you're an excellent patissier.
-Chiaki-san said that? -Would you do us this favour?
-Sure. -Great!
Thanks.
And...congratulations on your wedding...
-You guys look really good together. -Really?
I wish you two well.
We're not the ones getting married, you know.
Our friends from college are the ones getting married.
They asked us to organize their wedding party.
So that's it!
Chiaki and I are just friends.
Sorry for assuming you two were a couple.
-I'll work hard on the cake! -Thank you.
How nice. The idiot looks happy now. (T/N: He's talking about her)
-Did you say something? -Not really.
This is great!
Subs by chubba00 on livejournal. TIming by ocha_suki on livejournal. Enjoy!
The day after tomorrow?!
Apparently the chefs from the wedding venue are all in hospital right now because of some bad oysters.
We tried booking another venue but that date is fully booked everywhere else.
Is there anyway you two could prepare food and cake for 50 guests?
-Obviously not. -I can only ask you two at this point.
-It's too sudden! -We'll do it!
If it's for you and friends that are important to you...
...then I'd be happy to help.
Don't decide things on your own. It's impossible to pull this off.
Hey!
You said you wanted a Daniel Thomson surfboard, right?
I know someone who might be able to help.
Just say the word and it's yours.
I'll rest tomorrow since it's going to hectic the day after.
Does that mean he's going to help?
Amazing as always, Chiaki-san. You sure know how to handle people.
That's not it. He's a loyal guy by nature, no matter what happens.
-What did you want to talk about? -What are you doing tomorrow?
Nothing special.
-Then help me get ready. -Get ready for what?
Bro is asking me to do the impossible. I have to cook for 50 guests
for a wedding party the day after tomorrow.
You need some experience out of school.
Sorry.
-No can do. -What?
My licence exam is coming up so I have to study tomorrow.
I'm sure you'll manage alone. You're Kanata.
See ya. I'm taking this too.
Hey!
Sakurai.
What's up?
Come in.
-Excuse me... -Take a seat.
Okay...
Okay.
So? What did you want to talk about?
Well...
I wanted to ask you about your friends that are getting married...
Sure, I don't mind. But why?
I want to know what kind of people they are, where they met...
Things like that so I can make them a meaningful and unique cake.
Hm....
Then why don't you ask them directly?
I think it'll be better to hear those things from them than me.
That would be great, thanks!
I'm the one who should be thanking you.
Thanks for taking on this job.
You've saved me a lot of trouble. Honestly.
I'm really glad you're here.
Uh...I'll work hard tomorrow!
Yeah.
-I'll excuse myself... -Sakurai!
-Night. -Good night.
"I'm really glad you're here."
Yes, Chiaki-san!
He held a bouquet of dark red roses...
...and said 'Go out with me."
That's adorable.
You managed to pull it off even though it's so cheesy.
What are you, full of youthful passion?
You're the one who told me to confess like that, though.
-Mind if I take a look at these photos? -Not at all.
-This is... -They look good together, right?
They were famous in college for being such a good-looking couple.
What did you just say?
-They were famous in college... -The part after that!
...for being such a good-looking couple.
Hey...did Chiaki-san and Kaede-san date?
Yeah, they were really close.
We thought they would definitely end up getting married.
But they broke up 2 years ago. Kaede is a pianist, you see.
And one day, she said she was going to study abroad in Boston or something like that.
Serve it one more time! One more time!
Would be nice if they got together again.
What if while they're planning our wedding...
..they quickly grow close again, or something like that!
That's a surefire road to marriage.
Right Misaki-chan? Right?
Your face!!
What does it mean if an ex-couple get along well with eachother?
"Humans are strange creatures."
That's not it!
-Whatchya doing? -Touma-kun! Don't scare me like that!
Sulking in a place like this...
Is there something on your mind? You can talk to me if you like.
No, not really...
-It's not that big of a deal... -It's fine, just talk to me!
Come on.
If a guy gets along with with his ex-girlfriend...
...does that mean he still has feelings for her?
Ex-girlfriend, huh? Well, that depends on the girl.
The girl?
If she's a catch, then there's always a chance they could get together again any time.
Right?
Oh my...are you having love troubles, Misaki-chan?
No, it's not that!
Then, wanna date?
Date who?
Me.
Sorry?
Just so you know, I'm always available.
Think it over.
Bye!
What was that?!
Hey! Learn to knock at least!
What were you going to do if I was changing my clothes?!
Nothing, really.
What? What do you want?
-Let's go. -Where?
Come with me. No complaining.
What is this situation? Why do I have to go shopping with you?
Hurry up.
If you want me to hurry up than hold half the load!
-What are you doing? -Hide with me, come on!
-What? -Just hide!
-Why? -Is that you Kanata-kun?
-Shopping for tomorrow? -Yeah.
Is that you Misaki-chan? What are you doing over there?
The sun was a little too strong, so...
We're here to shop for tomorrow as well.
If you haven't eaten lunch yet, how about joining us?
-Sure. -I'm busy, so...
Wait, hey! Let's go together!
-Do me this favour, please? -If you don't want to go, just tell them.
Sakurai.
-Since we came all the way here anyway, let's go. -Okay...
The menu and the restaurant haven't changed a bit.
-Of course it has. This wall for example. -What? No way...
-What was it like before? -It was brown and had a glass pane, remember?
-No way, it definitely wasn't like that! -I'm serious! Just kidding.
Yeah that's right.
-Misaki-chan, do you like Whitebait? -Yes...
The Whitebait pasta here is delicious.
-Want to share a plate with me? -Okay...
Excuse me.
-Is that you Kaede-chan? Long time no see! -Yeah, it's been a while.
You came at the perfect time. We're having one of "those" events right now.
-Can you play the usual? -Sure thing.
Could you get us some Whitebait pasta here?
Of course.
She used to play piano here as a part-time job back in the day.
-Congratulations! -Thanks!
How old are you turning?
-6 years old. -I guess that makes me your Onee-san, huh?
Oh no, I got totally knocked out! This is the worst, seriously.
Touma! That girl came again.｡
Hey.
-What's up? -You missed school today as well.
Oh...that's because my stomach started hurting...
The licence exam is coming up. If you keep acting this way, you'll have to repeat.
What will happen will happen, right?
What's this? You smoke?
You want to become a chef, yet you're here smoking-
I don't want to become a chef.
I'm going to drop out of school anyway.
Hey-
President. We obtained some very interesting information about that restaurant.
So those brothers were sitting on this kind of secret...
This is me. I'm leaving the cake in your hands, Misaki-chan.
-Yep. -Thanks for the meal, Chiaki.
I'll see you later.
Something wrong?
No...
Kaede-san is pretty amazing, huh?
She's gorgeous, kind and an amazing pianist to boot.
She's perfect in every way...
And the total opposite to me.
There's no need to compare yourself to her, don't you think?
You have your own strengths.
Thank you for saying that.
But I still really wish I could be as dignified as her.
Well, she was always popular with guys and girls.
Does she a have a boyfriend right now, right?
I wouldn't know...
I haven't been in contact with her for 2 years.
She probably has one. This is Kaede we're talking about.
I have a meeting now at the Tokyo branch so I'm going to have to get going. Bye.
Thanks for the meal.
Misaki.
Misaki!
I'm really looking forward to your cake tomorrow!
I'll do my best!
He called me Misaki...
Misaki, Misaki, Misaki...
He called me Misaki!
Yes!
Hey Kanata!
Dropping honourifics really does feel great!
How should I put it...
You're freaking me out.
Hey Kanata! I can call you that, right?
What are you making, Kanata?
-Don't just call me by my name for no reason. -Why not?
We're living under the same roof anyway...
So let's call each other by our first names!
Alright, I'm going to get changed.
Your turn is after Kaede's...
...so you need to be on standby 5 minutes in advance.
It's your job to really liven up the mood, okay?
Leave it to me! I'll liven up the mood like there's no tomorrow!
Nobirin is putting his all into this!
He's always practicing his part at home.
That's a given!
-I'm looking forward to tomorrow. -Yeah.
I'm looking forward to the wedding cake too.
By the way, why did you bring Misaki-chan to your restaraunt?
I'm sure there were other patissiers you could've asked instead, right?
Well...
I wonder why.
Hey, how many dishes are you making?
-10. -That many? There are only 50 guests though.
Can you do it alone?
I don't have any other option, do I. Are you really in the position to worry about other people right now?
You better not ruin our restauraunt's reputation with a crappy cake
I know that. Gosh, you're annoying.
You should accept help from others, you know...
...especially since you aren'y good at asking for it.
I'm done!
-You're still not done? -Can't you tell by looking?
If you're done, then hurry up and go home. You're in the way.
I was going to go home anyway. Good work today.
I'll just stay to peel the potatoes.
Too thick.
-So picky! -Do it properly
-I am! -Less talking, more working.
Let me through.
-Here. -There's breast meat in the fridge.
Hang on, let me through.
Give it to me.
-Hmph. -Hey! What was that supposed to mean?
Give me the zucchini. Quickly.
Bacon.
Hurry up.
Wash the oil off properly.
Alright.
We're done!
You don't want it?
No, I'll take it...I really wanted some.
You didn't poison it, did you?
I mean, you're not usually this nice.
Dummy.
Calling me a dummy again.
I feel great!
Cheers!
As if you would do that...
Nothing beats beer after a day of hard work.
This kind of feels like a reward. The first one I've gotten in a long time.
When you were a kid...
...didn't you feel really happy when you got a reward?
You know, like when you did really well on a test...
...you would get to eat hamburgers for dinner...
...or your parents would buy you a toy.
Yeah...
"Even though it was tough, I'm glad I worked hard"
It made me really happy to be able to think like that.
I wonder why can't adults get rewards too...
Why are questioning something so obvious?
But I guess it's okay.
Pouring all your effort into making a cake and cooking food...
...is worth it if it brings a smile to your customer's face, I guess.
Tomorrow...wait no, today...
...it would be nice if everyone enjoyed our food like that.
When you say 'everyone', you're talking mainly about my brother right?
I just respect Chiaki-san, that's all.
You're not fooling anyone.
Why him?
I ask myself the same thing.
Hey...
What words would make you happy if someone said them to you?
-That's such a random thing to ask. -Come on, just answer it!
Nothing comes to mind. What about you?
For me...
...it would be 'You're cool'.
Rather than being told I'm cute or pretty...
...hearing that I'm cool would make me the happiest.
It's normally the other way round, but after having spent all this time focused on my career...
...before I knew it, I turned out like this.
But I ended up reaching a dead-end in my career too.
Chiaki-san was the one who gave me the opportunity to turn things around.
Even though I find myself weird... I want Chiaki-san...
...and only Chiaki-san...
...to think I'm cute.
It's none of my concern. Just make sure it won't get in the way of our work.
-I'll leave the cleaning up to you. -What? Hey!
-Cheese! -Did you pick your lots?
-No way? Really! -You've gotta be joking!
Yes, it's all good now.
Hey, Kanata. Pick a lot too!
-It's fine, just do it. -What's this for?
It's a s-e-c-r-e-t!
You got lot #7. The entire staff is doing it too.
Kanata-kun. Everyone loves the food.
Thank you so much. Really.
I didn't do it for you.
-Misaki! -Yes!
Is the cake ready to go?
Yes, it's all done.
The wedding cake is ready everyone.
Please direct your attention to the door over there.
Wow?
Allow me to introduce you...
...to the person who made this amazing cake...
Patissier Sakurai Misaki.
Please give her a huge round of applause.
I'm giving Chiaki-san the best part of the cake!
I'll draw a heart too...
Alright!
I'd like to ask all the female guests to gather in front.
Here I go!
Ready, set...go!
Kaede-chan!
Could I ask you something? Who are you going to marry?
-Who? Who? -Shut up!
I guess I'll marry Chiaki...
When that time comes, please give me your blessings.
Alright everyone, we're going to move on to the photo session so please head to the second floor.
That was a little cold of him, huh?
Hey, have you seen Chiaki-san?
-Chiaki? Second floor. -Thank you.
Should we start the entertainment earlier to liven things up?
-Weren't you a little too harsh back there? -When?
You could've carried on a bit more.
Would you have been happy if I have gotten down on one knee and proposed?
Chiaki.
Yeah?
-Kaede? -What if I'm serious?
What are you going to do then?
I'm just kidding.
I think I drank a little too much.
-You... -I'm going, okay?
Next up is Himura-san.
Thank you, thank you! Since today is a special occasion...
...I have prepared a performance that will definitely make everyone burst out with laughter.
I'd like to choose my partner in crime...
...from these lots!
1, 2, 3, 4....
Ta-dah!
The lucky girl is lot #34, Sakurai Misaki-san!
-Misaki-san! -Hey.
Sakurai Misaki-san! The one who made the wedding cake!
What?
Do you think this will go well? Misaki-chan.
-So we're really doing this? -Of course!
We'll put a smile on every guest's face!
Misaki-chan! Misaki-chan!
1, 2, 3, 4...
T/N: They're performing Doujou Sukui, a traditional Japanese comical dance about a farmer scooping loaches.
I found one, I found one, I found one...
Scoop harder!
And one more time!
Let's go!
Misaki-chan, do the face!
Let's go!
Misaki-chan, come here!
It's worth it if it brings a smile to your customer's face, I guess.
I want only Chiaki-san to think I'm cute.
That was amazing, Misaki-chan! You're just too good!
You did the loach catching dance perfectly, and saved me as well!
-It was really fun to watch! -Right?
Chiaki-san laughed a lot too.
That's good...
-Great job! -Yeah!
Did you see her? You laughed your socks off, right?
Yeah, I really did.
She pulled the role off so well that it felt like the laughing god had descended on us!
Misaki?
Oh! I'm getting a call from my parents! It might be urgent so excuse me!
-Hey... -Chiaki!
Let's take a photo with Himura-san! Himura-san, let's take a photo.
Of course! Let's do it.
It's her! The girl from before!
You must be happy, since everyone laughed.
Don't you think you might be better at scooping loaches than making cakes?
Maybe.
Maybe I should put scooping loaches down as personal skill on my resume from now on.
Let's go.
Where?
Just come with me. No complaining.
Himura-san! Have you seen Misaki?
Misaki-chan just left with Kanata.
With Kanata?
-They probably went back to the restaurant. -Thanks.
Misaki? Kanata?
Sea Sons speaking.
Hello?
Takumi-san...
-What? -Is Takumi-san there?
What is this?
-Is this yours? -As if.
It belongs to Himura Nobuyuki. 36 years old and single.
Is it okay to use it?
Of course it is. We've even ridden it together.
But what's it for?
It's your reward.
Are you getting on? Or not?
This is amazing!
I feel great!
Look, look! I can see fish! Fish!
It's dangerous.
The fish are jumping though!
Where are we going?
-I'll show you something good. -Where?
Hey, where's the head?
-Over there? -It's the other way.
Those are the legs.
No matter how you look at it, all you can see is a Kewpie doll lying face-up in the water.
Well...I guess it kinda does, now that you pointed it out.
So this is what you wanted to show me?
You do have a cute side!
But you really helped me out by taking me out of that place.
I couldn't handle being embarassed...
...in front of Chiaki-san anymore.
I didn't want him to see me like this.
Spending some time in the sea will clear your head.
-You're crazy! -No, I'm not.
Help me!...I can't swim!
For real?
Hey, stop flailing!
-I'm gonna die! -You're fine!
What? Did you feel like killing me?
I could say the same for you.
You're seriously the worst.
Again, I could say the same for you.
If you can't swim then don't come to the sea.
Is being able to swim really that big of a deal?!
You just laughed!
No I didn't.
Liar! I saw you!
You definitely laughed! I can't believe it.
It's just because I remembered how desparate you looked when you were drowning.
You were desparate too!
Look at you acting all tough.
Where are we going?
Wait a second!
What's up there?
Hey... I told you to wait up!
Wow!
Could this be what you wanted to show me?
This is the best spot to watch the sun set.
It's so pretty!
I got it off.
T-thanks...
You know...
You were pretty cool today.
Thanks.
"I got the best reward ever!"
This is my first time coming to Enoshima!
-Could it be...you've fallen in love? True love? -What?
I like you!
