We will have a competition for a new bread
I just want to know if people are willing to eat my bread
The winner is..
Yama-chan's pumpkin-orange bread!
The fact that I HAVE this thing,
I can say that proudly.
I like you, Michiru-san.
I'm happy.
I have a dream to open a cafe in a countryside.
Eh?
I never understand what you're thinking, Yamato-san.
As expected, we're better not to see each other for the time being.
I've changed my name back to Kitamura Rieko.
Should we start over?
Eh?
I want us to start over again.
Sorry if it's too sudden.
You don't have to answer it right away.
But..
I'll be waiting.
I'll get back to work.
Was that a confession?
Rieko-san has just confessed to him, right?
Being confessed by his ex that he loved before,
He must be very happy, right?
Aki-san..
Are you going back together with Rieko-san?

Takashi-san
Your condition looks bad today.
Why don't you just cancel your business trip today?
It's already late to cancel it now.
I'm just gonna sleep on the plane, it's okay.
You've been very busy lately, right?
For the sake of my pretty wife,
I must work really hard.
Takashi-san,
Huh?
- Here - Oh
Your dream about a cafe...
You haven't given up on it yet?
About that..
I was planning to throw it away.
Just like you said,
Wanting to run a cafe at this age despite being inexperienced,
I was just so thoughtless.
Aaaarrrrgghhh!
I can't get the work done~
I did that "thing"with Takahiro, whom I've known since he was wearing short pants,
That was such an unexpected development!
I..
I've never done it with anyone before.
Is it okay?
If it's me...
I wonder if it's okay to keep still like this.
I should do something!
But how...?
I don't know!
Are you okay?
Should we stop?
Was that even good?
It's no good! It won't get off my mind!
Yes. It's Sanuki here.
Ah
It's me.
Yes.
What are you doing?
Why are you asking? I'm working.
I see.
Can we meet somewhere around this week?
I have time after I finish the delivery.
understood.
Then, I'll call you later.
- Ah! - Eh?
Well...
- What is it? - Ah...
I bought a mobile phone.
- Can I mail you? - Of course.
Takahiro~ This is Michiru
Somehow this really feels like a boyfriend-girlfriend thingy~
We are now in a relationship~
- This data is hard to see. Change the layout! - Okay
- Osaki-kun! - Yes.
- The images are too dark. Brighten them up more! - Okay.
- Quickly! - Okay.
Whoaaa That's very enthusiastic of Suou-san~
It's because it's a revenge match with OrGirl, right?
This time...
We're gonna win it!
Orgirl
Competition PIC : Yamato Koichiro
Since then..
Yamato-san hasn't called me at all.
Let's talk, properly
Is that so?
As expected, we're better not to see each other for the time being
That's the level of our relationship, after all.
If it needs to end, the sooner, the better!
Aaaaah! I feel refreshed!
Eh? What was that?
As I thought, If you put the cream inside, it'll be collapsed when baked~
It doesn't work, right?
But, I absolutely..
Want the pumpkin-orange bread to be put out in our shop
Is this...
Voyeurism?
Even though it's already been read, he hasn't replied..
Why is it?
Perhaps..
He feels annoyed because I sent too much of them?
But, I've waited for 2 hours already,
It's fine even if I send it again soon, right?
- Good afternoon - Emi-chan, welcome~
Eh? Michiru, you bought a smartphone?
Ah.. Yes~
Hmmmmm~
As I thought, you're dating Taka-chan, right?
Somehow it just happened to be like that..
Am I the only one who knows about it?
- Yes. - I see.
Don't tell anyone yet!
Why?
Because.. I never know what will happen next
It's okay.
Look, Taka-chan has been adoring you since long ago, right?
That's different than this.
He was dating a woman 8 years older than him, before this.
And then?
I'm not confident.
That's okay.
Michiru, you are pretty~
I mean..
Actually, It was the first time for me to do "it" with the guy I'm dating.
Is that so?
I'm very happy because I was able to talk about this with you, Michiru.
Somehow..
I feel like I finally know everyone's feelings.
Huh?
When relationship begins...
In exchange for the excitement we feel, we become anxious, too.
Huhhhhhh~
Mom
Hello
What's wrong?
There's nothing wrong, though..
It's your birthday next week, right?
Right, and then..?
Got any plan yet?
I still don't know..
If you don't have any, just come home, then.
It's miserable to spend your birthday alone.
At this age, I don't need my parents to celebrate it.
Besides, I'll probably..
Fill my schedule.
That's impossible.
Is that all?
Well, I have to wake up early tomorrow, I'll hang up.
I will buy you a cake~
I'm finally 30, huh.
- I've put the baguette in. - Okay
- The milk sticks are ready! - Okay
I want us to start over again..
Ah? What's wrong?
Ah..
It's such a relief that Rieko-san is getting better, right~
Ahh..
That kid wanted to move out of our house, saying that she would live by herself.
Eh?
I tried to stop her, saying it was just too early..
Seems like she hated to see her surrounding being careful around her.
Is that so?
She wants to recover quickly
But I feel like it would be impossible
It makes me worried.
Are you okay, manager?
Hitoshi-chan!
- Why? - My waist.. waist..
Manager, what language was that?
Please~
Thank you for coming here.
We will look over this until the day of the competition.
Thank you so much for your cooperation.
Then, see you on the competition day.
Yes. We'll excuse ourselves, then
Suou-san, I'm sorry to ask you when you're busy,
Can you make time on the 12th in the afternoon?
On the 12th?
There will be a networking party by the Beauty Industry
It could be our chance for a new business development, I wish you can come with me.
But, it's the day before the competition
I'm aware that it's unreasonable,
But, I want to introduce you to our future clients. It's nothing to lose.
It won't take too long.
- Understood. I will accompany you. - Thank you
- Hello - Hello
Well.. We have to go now.
I'm sure I won't feel anything soon enough.
The pain.. Is only for now.
Rieko-san
I heard you're now living by yourself
Right.
It's only a small apartement, 2 stations away from here.
After I heard your story before,
I also wanted to change.
Huh?
In a world you knew nothing about,
You said you pushed yourself in, because that's what you've decided, right?
I was so jealous of you.
Ah.. No way.. Please~
I am the one who feels jealous.
If I could change, I would.
I also want to find what I'm passionate about, quickly.
Rieko
- Are you ready yet? - Yes. Sorry.
Ah, what's the matter?
- Moving work. - Eh?
Because my Dad hurt his waist, I recruited Kaito-kun instead.
I'm sorry. But we only need a one-way trip by car.
I'll add it to my salary next month.
Then, Kaede-san, we're going now.
- Good work today. - Good work today
Bye.
- Are you okay with driving? - Okay. Okay.
Aki-san...
Is going to Rieko-san's place.
Kaito-kun, thank you for today.
Anytime. If it's for you.
Don't think about it!
- Hello - Ah, Kaede?
- Are you free tonight? - I am
Why is it?
Want to have Yakiniku for the Daisy meeting?
Eh?
Somehow I'm feeling a bit depressed,
I want to let it out with beef and beer.
I'm in.
- Eh? - Eh?
Kaoru you broke up with your boyfriend?
For real? You lie!
- When? - Quite recently.
Well, now, I'm devoted to work.
Being single is the best!
It feels like..
She's running away.
Aaakkhh!
Well I won't go out with such incomprehensible guy!
Just like Michiru, it's better to be alone, after all!
What would you do about Taka-chan?
It's not the right time to tell her!
You will get exposed someday!
If it doesn't work out, I won't get exposed.
But, Kaoru, you don't intend to be alone forever, right?
Well, If I can be a lovey dovey couple like Emi-chan, then, that's okay.
About Takashi-san...
He said he wanted to have a cafe in a contryside.
- Eh? - Eh?
He's not gonna do it right away,
He wants to run a cafe in the future...
Isn't that good?
Eh?
Being a cafe's madam or something like that will suit you.
- Then, I will bake the bread! - That's good! - I'll put my bags as well.
- Kaoru, you'll be the esthetician in the back. - Eh that's good.
Wait wait wait everyone!
Takashi-san never even once talked about it before we got married.
Then he suddenly said something about cafe, I'm worried.
- Having a dream for the future is a good thing. - That's true, but...
There are so many things that I know for the first time since we got married.
That's because you guys were once strangers.
By the way, Kaede,
Finally you're going to be 30 next week, right?
Ahh.. Uhm!
Finally Kaede will be 30, huh~
Kaede, I'm sorry.
I'll have a competition on that day, after that, I'll also need to attend the after party
Actually, I also still don't know if I can make it that day.
Ah.. That's okay if you can't make it.
Being alone on your birthday is not something unusual.
This yakiniku is an advance celebration, right?
Then, let's celebrate it again, properly!
Next time.
- Yes - You're right.
Is there anyone to celebrate it with you?
No.
- What about your boyfriend? - He is not my boyfriend
It's not going well?
Don't touch on it!
But, you went on a date, right?
Seems like something has happened.
- Everyone, read the situation... - It gets through here...
Even though it's a bit early, but Kaede, congrats on being 30!
Congratulations! Cheers~
Let's roast the beef!
Here, Kaede!
Today is your advance celebration, anyway. Let's drink!
And then..
The last day of my 20s has arrived.
Manager, please give me your review.
Okay.
How is it?
I can put this one in the shop
The shape is also good.
Whoaaaa! Thank you so much
But... I think we still can't feel the taste of the cream a little bit from the dough, right?
True.
It still needs improvements.
You guys are so enthusiastic to do the research.
Yosh!
OK!
Hitoshi-chan! Should I change the compress?
Manager is not young anymore~
Thank you so much for everything.
Because it's not something anyone can do,
- Have a little more confidence. - Okay
You have come this far..
- Do not quit half way. - Eh?
Making bread is.. Doing the same thing over and over, every day.
There are so many people get tired of it.
Ah.. I won't quit~
The bread that is being baked..
I will never get tired of it~
You are so persistent, huh.
- That's what you are~ - What are you talking about? When was I?
Aren't you originally so persistent?
This is from Chelsea.
- She asked me to give it to you. - To me?
It's so cute~
She really liked the handbag.
I'm so relieved.
It was my girlfriend who made it~
What happened?
No.. Nothing happened.
Somehow..
It feels like I'm the only one who's excited here.
Is it not fun to be with me?
It's fun!
It's fun but.. There are so many things on my mind.
What are you thinking about?
Well.. Many things..
Being in a relationship with my best friend 's brother,
I wonder if it will become troublesome~
If it doesn't work out,
I'm afraid things will get awkward between me and Kaoru.
Ha? Why would it be?
Why do you decide it won't work out between us from the beginning?
I'm sorry..
- Nice to meet you, I'm Suou from Fluctus. - I'm Ota from Rayleigh Rose.
- She is our hope, I wish we can collaborate soon~
Yamato-san is not coming, is he?
- Hello, Orgirl-san~ - Hello.
-Where is Yamato-san? - Ah, Yamato is still busy with his work.
- Really? - Is that so? It's the day before the competition after all.
- Suou-san - Yes
- You can go back to the office. - Okay.
- I'm sorry for asking you to be here. - Ah no.
For tomorrow's presentation, I'm sincerely counting on you!
Okay.
I'm still gonna stay here for a while, you guys can go home first.
- Okay - Good work today.
Yamato-san, please make sure you'll win tomorrow.
Of course.
- We'll excuse ourselves~ - Good work today.
You could get worried, too?
What kind of person do you think I am?
Machine.
Then, please tell me.
I want the manual.
Yosh~
Let's just do the rest at home.
Kaoru-san!
What are you doing?
I thought you were still at the office.
That's not what I mean!
Tomorrow is the competition day!
With this kind of feeling, it's impossible to work!
My ex wife also told me..
She wanted us to properly talk to each other.
But I...
I didn't know what to do...
I never thought the problems would be settled just by talking about them.
I didn't want us to hurt each other,
So, it was better for us to have a clean break up, instead.
I...
Didn't think I was suitable to be married.
Whenever I face someone..
I'm afraid.. They would reject me.
I'm the same as you, about being afraid.
That's why, if you try to escape from your own feelings, nothing will change here.
I also..
Didn't want you to hate me,
So I forced myself to match your pace.
I couldn't do it forever!
If we end up breaking up after sharing our thoughts, then, it can't be helped...
But you were running away, because you didn't want to talk,
- That's what I hate the most.... - I don't want to break up!
You said you don't understand what I was thinking, but....
I love you, kaoru-san!
That's why...
I don't want us to break up.
This isn't your strategy to troll your enemy, on the day before the competition, right?
Even without doing this, I still have the confidence to win...
No. Tomorrow, I'll be the winner.
It's bad! It's already this late.
Rieko-san?
Please, wait!
What happened to you?
Here, if you'd like.
I'm sorry.
Ah. Please don't worry about it.
It's only me, anyway.
I just got tired after moving out.
I'm okay now.
I was surprised..
You were in such place...
I didn't want to go home..
I'm afraid when I'm alone.
I...
I feel like I'm already damaged.
You're not damaged at all.
Rieko-san, you're doing your best,
Everyone knows it! They fully support you.
Aki-san also....
Aki-san...
He's always thinking about you, Rieko-san...
I have also...
Seen the ring that was supposed to be given to you..
By Aki-san.
Even when you were hospitalized,
Or when you got a divorce,
He was very worried about you,
He wanted to do something for you...
He was suffering so much.
Even the get-well-soon bread..
It was all Aki-san's idea.
That's why, Rieko-san,
You are not alone.
Do you want some pudding?
In a time like this, we need to eat something sweet to feel better.
Thank you.
Loving a person...
Is tiresome.
It's like...
Even if you're fully aware of the result,
The feelings that we have for that person...
We can't stop it.
It's the morning of my 30th birthday.
I woke up with the same feeling as usual.
Yamashiro
I tried baking a bread using the apple yeast.
Hmmm.. It smells good.
Want to taste it?
Hmmm...
As expected, baguette is best served when it's freshly baked~
In Paris, the customers came every morning to the shop to buy freshly baked baguette.
I mostly couldn't bake them in time.
It would be nice.. In Paris.
I want to go there~
Let's go there one day!
Eh?
I will tell you some recommended bakeries.
Even though that would be fun...
You never know...
What's with that weak reaction?
Aki-san,
Are you free today after the shop closes?
Why?
I have something important to tell you.
Can you go to Kanakolu?
What is this important story?
I'll tell you when we meet later.
Make sure you come, okay?
I need to go shopping.
Kaede?
Kota?
Long time no see
You're doing fine, right?
In the middle of the work?
Right.
It's break time now.
You're still working at the bakery?
Yes
The other day,
The bread that I originally made
Was chosen as the new item of the shop.
Heee? That's great!
If you'd like, you can buy our bread now.
It's quite near from here, Kitamura Bakery.
Well, I might be covered with flour in the back...
You're doing what you like, right?
Eh?
Kaede...
Somehow... Your face looks brighter than before.
Good morning.
It's our one-on-one fight, right?
Yes
Hello, Emi-chan.
I'm already leaving now
I might arrive home around 10 o'clock.
Good work today. I'll be waiting.
Bye
- I'll go home first. - Good work today~
- Good work today - See you after this.
Yes
MICHIRU
Excuse me, your guest has arrived.
Eh?
Kaito-kun
What happened?
Uhhhm
What about you?
Kaede-san called me asking to have dinner together
Working overtime on your 30th birthday, huh?
But, it's not that bad, right?
You guys..
At least, you're not unhappy.
Well, yeah..
Surrounded by your favorite bread.
Even though it's an unrequited love, you have someone you like.
You have three good friends too, right?
Yes.
Why does it take her so long to do the cleaning?
- I wonder if something has happened. - I'll call her.
She didn't pick up.
Happy birthday!
You're not pretending to endure it out of pride, right?
If you're alone, don't hesitate to come home.
I'm still working, you know.
Congratulations on your 30th birthday!
Let's celebrate it again!
I wish you a fulfilling year, Kaede~
Happy birthday
Finally you reached that mark, huh.
I will catch up soon, so, no need to worry~
Let's have a good relationship with each other~
Kaede, happy birthday!
In my opinion, since your life has changed,
I felt some responsibilities, too.
But, it was good that you seemed to be happy.
If you have something you like,
With only that, you can consider your life lucky.
Yosh!
The first night of being 30,
Is over.
I am nothing.
I don't want to get older like this. No way!!
I wonder...
If I've already obtained something
You're not even half of the beginner.
The bread that you made before, I give you 30 points
I...
Even if I'm all by myself, I'm properly doing my best, right?
It's good.
Good job, this time.
Even if it's one step at a time,
I'm moving forward, right?
Because it's not something anyone can do,
Have a little more confidence
Your bread... was really good
Congratulations
Aki Kaito
It's okay. It's okay
Hang in there!
Damn it!
I'm two minutes late.
Aki-san?
What happened?
Tsk! This busybody.
Why did you arrange such thing without my permission!
Where is Rieko-san?
Did you leave her alone at the cafe?
Rieko told me to go back here.
Perhaps...
Kaede-san..
Arranged this for my sake.
Why?
Because I showed her how weak I was.
It's about what you said the other day,
I'm sorry
I...
I like you as a friend
If something happens, I will lend you my strength
But,
I can't go back to the past.
Undoubtedly..
Somehow I already knew..
Will you still be my friend?
Yes.
I threw away that ring.
And then....
Today is Kaede-san's birthday.
Eh?
Please let your mentor know about your birthday!
I'm sorry
The other day...
You told me to forget about your love confession, right?
Also...
You might not care about me anymore
I..
The one I love is Yamashiro
Did you hear me?
Ah.. Yes.
Well..
It's wrong if you think I don't care about you anymore
I...
Even until now,
I really love you!
But...
Well...
I...
Have I become fully qualified?
Eh?
Well.. You told me before..
Until I become fully qualified,
In a time like this,
We should forget about official stance
Yes
Happy birthday
Thank you very much
English Subtitle by eveychooey
I can't give "like" to my friends
That side of me, I really hate it
Inside my heart, I already clicked "I envy you.."
Then being depressed on a lonely night
We each have our own lives
That's why our each-day is so different
I should have known it
So yeah, that's right~
You, be yourself in your own way~
Because you're not everyone else,
Doing your own Friday your way
Being your own luxurious self
That's enough, isn't it?
Happiness is not a competition
There's also no right way to be happy
You'll realize it when you're smiling :)
The things that you're searching for~
May be there!
