           Ai:   W-Well. I mean.
                 Oops. I showed up at a bad time.
        Youta:   Please, don't misunderstand this. This is nothing,
                 just.
        Sound:   Ki.
        Youta:   No-Nobuko-chan.

 <129>
        Youta:   Big tear drops.
                 Ah.
                 I've never seen her face like this before.
        Sound:   Ba.
                 Basha basha.
           Ai:   No-Nobuko-chan.

 <130>
        Sound:   Basha.
           Ai:   Nobuko-chan!!
        Sound:   Da.
           Ai:   What are you doing! Go, quickly!!
        Youta:   Ah. Yes!
                 She was so upset. Now I have to talk to her well!

 <131>
       Nobuko:   U.

 <132>
           Ai:   Youta!
        Youta:   Would you excuse us, Ai-chan.
           Ai:   Ah. Sure.

 <133>
        Youta:   Hey, let's talk.
       Nobuko:   I have nothing to talk about!
                 From the beginning, I knew there was a shadow of
                 Amano-san in you. But, I decided to give myself up to
                 you because you said you liked me too, but.
                 But, this is.
                 You're getting along well with Amano-san, so you
                 don't have to stop me.
                 You just want my body, right, because we didn't go
                 all the way.

 <134>
        Sound:   Pan.
        Youta:   Ah.
                 So-Sorry. But. About today, it's really.
       Nobuko:   .I'll do my best, Senpai.

 <135>
       Nobuko:   I'll do my best to start hating you, so.
        Sound:   Da.
        Youta:   Wait.
           Ai:   Ah.
        Sound:   Su.

 <136>
        Sound:   Kon kon.
           Ai:   Youta, aren't you going to eat?
        Youta:   Leave me alone.

 <137>
        Youta:   I like Nobuko-chan, but I wonder if I really love
                 her.
                 When Moemi-chan treats me nice, I wonder to
                 Moemi-chan.
                 When Ai-chan is beside me, I tend to Ai-chan.
                 I have felt love towards Nobuko-chan, but I wonder
                 if I've ever given her love.

 <138>
       Nobuko:   Moteuchi-senpai!!
        Youta:   For the first time, I confirmed my love and went out
                 with a girl.
                 Nothing ever came from me.
       Nobuko:   Do you have someone you like, now?!
                 I won't give up!
                 Ehe.
                 I'll sleep with you.
        Youta:   We're actually going out.
        Youta:   .Either I was moved by her pushing, or I was
                 intoxicated by being liked.
       Nobuko:   You just want my body.

 <139>
        Youta:   No! It's not like that, Nobuko-chan!!
        Sound:   Gu.
                 Su.
                 Do do do do do.
       Nobuko:   Senpai.
        Sound:   Do do do do.
        Youta:   Is it really untrue? I want to continue that, and
                 touch her with this hand, don't I. because I can do
                 it if she's my girlfriend, right?
        Sound:   Doki doki doki doki doki doki.

 <140>
       Nobuko:   I'll do my best to start hating you.
        Youta:   Are we going to end up like this. End up like this.
       Nobuko:   I like you very much, Senpai!
        Sound:   Gu.
        Youta:   Nobuko-chan. I don't understand my feelings well,
                 but I don't know if I'm thinking when I calm down,
                 but anyway, now these never ending tears tell me
                 that I like you. I like you, Nobuko-chan!!

 <141>
       Nobuko:   Was it too rude to say he just wanted my body.
                 He was really angry.
        Sound:   Bafu.

 <142>
       Nobuko:   Confusing. He did such a cruel thing to me, and why.
                 Why do I feel such pain just because his face is in
                 my mind.
                 I can't break up with him like this.
           Ai:   Where are you going at this time?
        Youta:   Well. I'll just cool my mind off.
        Sound:   Batan.

 <143>
        Youta:   Maybe we can make up now. I go see and talk to her,
                 and I'll apologize for what I did wrong.
        Sound:   Tatan tatan tatan tatan tatan tatan.
                 Puaaaaan.
                 Gagagaga.
                 Gari gari gari.
                 Dadan dadan dadan dadan dadan.

 <144>
       Nobuko:   I'll go see him and talk to him. And, see if I can
                 apologize to him.
        Sound:   Pin pon.
           Ai:   Yes. Who's there?
       Nobuko:   A-Amano-san!?
        Youta:   .How stupid of me! If I think about it, I don't know
                 where her house it.

 <145>
        Sound:   Gachaa.
                 Kotsu kotsu kotsu.
                 Kii.
           Ai:   Um?. Nobody's here, is this a joke?
       Nobuko:   Why? At this time is Amano-san at his house!? Why!?
