Run at once towards a dream.
Let's laugh and break though the troubled yesterday.
Even when our memories are hurt,
directly face your wounds with pride.
I can feel it in the wind.
The hot beat is shining,
especially now...
surely, always, you'll be by my side.
Keep on running the way to the future.
More and more, no matter what happens,
half our tears become double smiles
forever.
Sa is for Sayonara
Say...
Er... Well...
Umm...
So, I mean...
Seconds.
Is this a present?
Yeah.
Please choose the wrapping paper you'd like.
Umm... This one.
Which ribbon would you like?
Err... yes.
This one.
I can create a free point card for you...
Hold on!
What are you doing?
I told you I wouldn't buy you a toy, didn't I?
Is it okay if mommy starts hating you?
Is it okay if I hate you?
I didn't think I would be able to make it up them with just this, though.
Excuse me...
Do you have any business with us?
The coffee is ready.
It's a nice office, isn't it?
What?
Even though this is my first time here, I feel relaxed.
If feels like somehow, I've known this nostalgic place all along.
I can see why the girls thought of this place as their home.
What?
Mitsugi Kimihiko.
The Shirogane sisters' guardian.
Well, well. It would have been fine if it had just ended as a rumor.
He just kept going on about it.
That guy... I don't really know if he does that sort of work or not, but at night,
he said something about a big spider, and that it grew into something outrageous.
"Wouldn't be better if you calmed down a bit? You will never know what will happen, you know."
But then I told him that there wasn't any need to worry about anything.
That's why Sugisaki-san... No. Michiru-san. Next time why don't the two of us go fishing for crayfish--
Ah, hold on a bit.
Nidaime?
I'm sorry.
If I suddenly made you feel bad...
Mitsugi-san.
Never mind. It's nothing... at all.
Tomorrow...
Why not tomorrow?
Will you really be all right from here on?
Well then, I'll wait for your call.
Those girls are the daughters of my father's benefactor.
After their parents passed away due to an accident,
my father took them into our home.
And then,
after my father passed away,
I took care of them.
Here is my card.
[Mitsuki Heavy Industries Corporation]
Representative director of Mitsugi Heavy Industries, CEO of Mitsugi Semiconductors...
Futaba-kun?
May I sit?
O-Oh, please do so.
Sorry for not noticing.
Um... you can help yourself to the coffee too, if you'd like.
It might not be very sweet, though.
Thank you. I'll have some.
Acting as their foster parent,
I wanted to make some effort in my own way.
The thing that those girls need has to be given freely.
But, nobody can live on scraps of bread alone.
Despite my efforts, I wasn't able to become a real guardian to them.
Won't you eat?
I am really thankful to you.
I was unable to comfort them, but you filled the emptiness in Sara's and Soujyu's hearts with warmth.
Ever since the girls met you, it's been as if they were different people.
No...
When they were in this office, that's probably when they've been the real Shirogane Sara and Shirogane Soujyu.
Huh?
Huh...
That's weird.
I am their fiancé.
What?
On Sara's and Soujyu's sixteenth birthday,
I have to marry one of them.
In the case of that not being accomplished,
I'll... lose my position as the head of the Mitsugi family.
Yes, that's today.
Our worlds... are totally different.
Sara-chan.
Hm?
What will we do? Today...
Should we stop?
Even if we don't do it, there might be a way to be together.
Until tomorrow...
We only have today left.
But...
I am scared, after all.
Maybe we can't remain as we were up till now anymore.
But...
is there a better alternative?
We only have until tomorrow.

[Subject] [Text] Found you!
It's Rentarou!
You can prepare a report regarding this, but the communications with the related companies must be performed well ahead of schedule.
They would not have forgotten your predecessor's last testament.
Until tomorrow--
Shimoshima.
Yes.
Even if I have the right to ruin their party,
we don't know if this may be their last night together...
Why aren't you using your own umbrellas?
Does it matter?
H-Hey!
Well then, there was no point in my coming to get you in the first place.
Isn't it all right?
There!
Boss!
Geez... Hey!
We're completely soaked!
You really are soaked right through underneath.
What do you mean underneath?
It doesn't matter now!
Your clothes became see-through now, Sara-chan!
Yeah, don't look at it!
I'm not looking!
Hey, hurry up!
If you don't dry yourselves off, you'll catch a cold!
Okay!
Ah! Wait!
Wait a bit!
You can come in when I yell "Okay", okay?
Okay!
What the heck, not even turning on the lights...
Boss?
What's the matter?
Happy birthday!
Rentarou...
Why...
Sit down quickly.
You're sixteen today, right?
W-Wait a bit.
Lighting sixteen candles is quite difficult.
Thanks for waiting.
Come on, blow them out.
It seems somehow wasteful, Sara-chan.
Yup.
Shall we go?
One, two-
Well then, let's turn on the on the lights and eat.
Wait!
Before that, I want my present.
There's... no time anymore.
Let's go, Soujyu.
Where?
Since we don't want to catch a cold we'll be taking a shower.
I am their fiancé.
On Sara's an Soujyu's sixteenth birthday,
I have to marry one of them.
In the case of that not being accomplished,
I'll... lose my position as head of the Mitsugi family.
That's absurd!
I think so too.
But that is the will.
My father thought that by arranging it this way, Sara and Soujyu would be happy.
Both of them wouldn't...
They know, of course.
It's neither good nor bad.
The two of them have lived up to today for that absolute purpose.
Can you give then happiness?
I can't give these to them.
I'll leave the towels here!
Thanks.
The bath wasn't very hot before, was it?
Yes, but it's fine today.
Rentarou!
What?
Did you meet him? Kimihiko....
Yeah.
What will I do if I return?
If I return to the room... what will I do after that?
Ah...
Aren't you going in?
I've been thinking about many things, you know.
Soujyu, are you all right?
I'll go get your clothes.
Cold?
I'm all right.
Thank you.
Soujyu.
This way.
I did meet Mitsugi Kimihiko-san.
I heard everything.
Your father is a salary man.
Your mother is a housewife.
Thought they gave you free rein, when you came to the office you'd contact them on the phone.
It was all a lie.
Just what was this place?
What was I to you?
What am I?
If...
If you understood everything, what would happen?
I don't know.
I can't answer if I haven't decided yet, huh?
I...
What can I possibly do?
Daite means 'hold us' but it can also mean 'make love to us'.
Make love to us.
It's okay because we won't be here tomorrow.
Will you answer us?
I can't do it!
Where would it go, if we were to make love.
If you were to be here tomorrow,
would you really be able to become happy?
And me...
What can I believe in?
If I made love to you and we became one, would tomorrow change at all?
That is...
That is..
Why does it have to be sixteen?
What happens at sixteen?
Hello?
This is Futaba, whom you met today at noon.
My apologies, but unfortunately Kimihiko-sama is out of the house.
There's nowhere that we can go now, Sara-chan.
What are we supposed to do, Sara-chan?
Your body got cold.
Wait a minute. I'll get you something warm over there.
Sara-chan...
I am strong.
So even if I'm on my own, I'll be fine.
So...
everything will be all right from now on.
Right, Soujyu?
If...
I knew everything...
would I be able to do anything for them?
If I knew everything, would I have been together with the girls until today?
If I knew everything...
would I have been able to make love to them?
If I knew everything, would I...
I knew everything...
would I...
Inside my memories,
there was a happy moment
within the light.
It overflowed in this place.
For example,3 years later,
would you be able
to remember our time?
Ah*c the days gone by
always wrench my heart.
Hey, more than before,
understand the feeling of love.
I won't say goodbye. Always from now on,
the days of no return
will leave your heart behind.
