01x05 - I Can't Say It Out Loud

[bunniefuu]

Kyoko, are you staying home today too?

Yes.

I still feel a little sick.

Okay.

I'm actually skipping school today.

But…

I like you.

I've liked you for a long time.

I don't know how I should face him.

But I used to text him so freely…

What am I doing?

I can't hang out tomorrow,
but I can the day after that.

Come to my house then.

I'll tell my sister.

Okay.

I'm home.

You're back.

Kyoko, are you feeling better?

Yes, I feel much better.

That's great.

Can I have some yogurt?

Go ahead.

I saw Miyamura this morning.

How does he look?

He was with a girl.

Which one do you want, Kyoko?

Wait a moment. What?

I think there's orange pulp in this one.

I don't like citrus, so you can have it.

By the way, who's the girl?

No idea.

She was wearing
a different school uniform.

That equates to a girl
from a different school.

He met her outside.
Multiply that by "I like you, Hori."

Does that equal to two-timing?

Doesn't it?

He must be two-timing.

Oh, that was bad.

I'm thinking too much.

They must be just friends.

Do they look close?

Were they chatting?

What?

They were close together
with their arms linked.

That's wasteful.

A girl?

Linked arms?

Why?

I'm such a fool.

I could just
text him as usual and ask him.

Maybe she's just like Shindo,
his junior high friend.

Besides, I don't even know
if it's Miyamura…

RD-YEAR ELECTIVE
MODERN JAPANESE, CLASS A

Hori, is your cold better now?

Hey, don't speak so loud.

I'm so sorry.

Where's Miyamura?

He's here.

He was worried about your cold.

He's sitting near the window, so you…

That's strange.

All right.

Students, back to your seats.

Wait, Hori's here?

I don't remember seeing her
during homeroom.

I think she came during the first period,

but she looked a bit tense.

She's not in a good mood.

It's like she doesn't want to see you.

Did you two fight?

We didn't fight.

Is that so? If you say so.

We're changing classrooms now, Miyamura.

Okay.

Sorry, you go on ahead.

All right.

Hori.

Why did you yell?

I'd like to have a word with you.

I need to go home earlier today.

See you.

Were you awake?

That day…

You were awake, right?

I said those words
because I knew you were awake.

That's why…

-Who was she?
-Who? What?

The one you linked arms and walked with.

Who was she?

Well…

Tell me you don't know.

-Well…
-Tell me that Sota saw someone else.

That it was the wrong person.
That it was a mistake.

That it wasn't you.

Are you talking about Chika?

Chika?

Yes.

-From Yasaka--
-I've never heard you call a girl

by her first name before.

You even linked arms
while walking together.

With that smart "Chika" from Yasaka.

Hori, it's a misunderstanding.

Chika and I are not
in that kind of relationship.

It's Shindo.

Chika is Shindo's girlfriend.

Chika slipped and twisted her ankle.

Shindo too.

So I only helped her walk.

So Chika and I aren't…

"Chika…"

What do you mean by that?

Hori, listen to me. Chika--

Stop saying her name! How annoying!

But…

I don't know her last name.

She's mad not because I walked
with her, but because of a name?

HISTORY OF NEW JAPAN

I didn't know
it would be so easy for her to hate me.

I threw my textbooks at his face.

She's such an oddball.

I guess there's something
wrong with her brain?

No, he wouldn't say that.

Miyamura wouldn't say such things.

Kyoko.

What is it?

-If you want to eat yogurt then--
-Miyamura is here.

-Say I'm not here.
-Hello.

Would it be better if I leave?

What? If you want me to leave, I'll do so.

Please stay.

Is that so? That's great.

I came to return these.

Okay.

I was thinking
about returning them tomorrow,

but I thought
you'd need them for homework later.

Yes, that's true.

-He's definitely mad.
-She's definitely mad.

Why is she mad?

It's probably because of Chika.

He probably doesn't know why I was mad.

I'm so--

I'm sorry.

What?

Because I hit you with these.

Twice.

It's no big deal.

It's all because I mentioned Chi…

I mean, Shindo's girlfriend.

That's why it made you mad.

I'd like to ask,
what is Chika's last name?

Well…

I don't know.

Seriously?

Jeez, why didn't you say so earlier?
You made me misunderstand.

What? I told you, but you didn't listen.

Well, let's put that aside for now.

I was awake.

I heard every word that day.

Is that so?

I said it because I knew you were awake,

so of course you heard it.

I didn't say it
because I wanted an answer.

No.

In fact, I'm afraid of your answer.

I'm sorry for running away after that.

Miya…

Kyoko.

That guy…

Who is he?

Kyosuke!

Where's Yuriko?

Wait a minute. Why are you here?

Just for fun.

Who is he? Could he be…

Who is he?

He has so many piercings.
Can I touch his head?

Put out the cigarette, Kyosuke.

Do you know how to smoke?

No, I…

You have so many piercings.
Did you do them yourself?

Yes.

When I was in junior high.

I said put out the cigarette.

Kyoko.

A young lady like you
shouldn't axe kick her dad.

-They do these days. Didn't you know?
-I was right.

He's Hori's father.

It has been so long since I came home,

but Yuriko isn't here,

my daughter even used v*olence on me,

and there's even
some guy I don't know here.

At least call in advance.
It's common sense.

Kyoko, I'm hungry.

Can you whip something up for me?

What?

I can't stand you.

She complains,
but she still makes it for me.

What a good child, right?

Yes…

Oh, I haven't introduced my--

That's fine. Just sit.

What is this situation that I'm in?

Who are you?

I'm Miyamura from Katagiri High School.

Izumi Miyamura.

Same age as Kyoko?

That's right.

Is that so?

Oh, did I get in the way of something?

No. Not really.

Is that so?

Miyamura.

Has anyone ever said
you have long eyelashes?

Here's your snack.

Kyoko, I wish
you would put it on the table.

I'll do that next time.

I'm sorry.

I don't know who she takes after,
but she's violent at home.

No, she's not like that…

at all…

Miyamura,
are you an only child or the eldest son?

I'm an only child.

I won't give you my daughter.

I was joking.

I've always wanted to try saying that.

He's so hyper.

By the way,

Hori calls you by your name.

That surprised me a little.

Miyamura.

I'm basically "Hori" too.

Can you just call her Kyoko?

Okay.

Her name. Use her first name.

-Kyo--
-I'm just kidding.

It's embarrassing
to do that all of a sudden.

I want to go to the meadow.

Kyoko?

What is it? I'm coming.

Hey, Miyamura is your boyfriend, right?

What?

He's…

He's…

Yes. Do you have a problem with that?

That's heavy!

-Wait, it's going to fall…
-Hori…

I don't accept guys with long hair!

You should look at the mirror first.

I will cut it.

I will cut it short.

No.

You just have to tie it up,

or it would be a waste.

Miyamura, you can ignore him.

Put it up like this?

Kyoko, hairpins!

What?

Seriously…

Miyamura.

You must be popular with the girls.

No, not at all.

Are you really okay going out with Kyoko?

Yes.

It's because the person I like

is Hori.

How nice.

I wish I could go back to high school.

Here you go. A bunch of hairpins.

You are just like Yuriko
when she was young.

And you've been like this
since you were young?

You old geezer.

Kyosuke…

What…

What do we do?

We didn't prepare enough for dinner.

Seriously?

Kyoko, Sota, myself, and Izumi.

It's fine. I'm going home anyway.

That's how it is.

You can borrow Miyamura's tableware.

I don't have my own tableware?

He can use disposable chopsticks instead.

Not even chopsticks?

Anyway…

sorry about the trouble Kyosuke gave you.

It's okay.

Is that so?
He's always selfish and stubborn.

I find it acceptable when I think
it's because they are the Hori family.

Miyamura.

Yes, Hori?

Hori, I…

I don't know anything about you at all,

but I want to understand you
little by little.

It would be great if I could.

The same goes for me too.

Really?

Yes.

You can see me off here.

Okay. Have a safe trip.

See you tomorrow.

Hori!

Thank you.

Yeah.

I now know the reluctance
of saying see you tomorrow

and also the speed of her heartbeat.

Right, how much
do we need to cover for math?

What?

I see.

Okay.

Idiot, I'm the one who called you.

Don't worry about it.

You tried really hard. Isn't that great?

It's fine.

See you at school.

This is bad.

I'm so lame.

The one closest to Hori

used to be me.

Miyamura.

I should get a part-time job too.

Come to my workplace then.

Somehow,

he looks kind of down.

Sakura.

Sakura?

Sakura!

Why are you spacing out here?

It's nothing.

Let's go to the student council room.

What were you looking at?

It was nothing.

You're lying.

You were looking at something.

I said it's nothing.

Let's hurry up and go.

Remi!

Do you have to hide it from me?

What?

You've been acting strange lately, Sakura.

I'm not.

Liar. You were spacing out just now.

Did anything happen?

I'm here if you want to talk about it.

Big eyes.

A delicate and slender figure.

Ishikawa likes Hori,

who is also pretty and cute.

You wouldn't understand.

Are you saying I won't be of help
because I'm not smart?

No.

It's not like that.

Remi…

You're different from me. You're pretty.

So you wouldn't understand my feelings.

What are you saying?

I'm being serious.

So am I!

If only I were you.

If only

I were you.

I don't even have a cute personality.

I'm beyond help.

Why does Ayasaki
always hang out with Kono?

It's like a swan with an ugly duckling.

It's not that I want to be Remi.

Sakura!

Sakura is such a cute name.

But…

Remi is my best friend!

STUDENT COUNCIL ROOM

Sakura?

I went to the washroom just now.

Why do you look so flustered?

I… Actually…

Well…

There's someone I like.

But I…

I'm not cute like you.

What should I--

This is your first time blushing.

You know,

you always act really cool,

but you blush
when it comes to times like this.

You sure are cute, Sakura.

I'm sorry,

Remi.

KATAGIRI HIGH SCHOOL

Just go by yourself.

Why not?

Come on…

Wait. Didn't you guys head home first?

We forgot something.

Toru too?

No, I was dragged along.

Right, Hori.

For the English midterm test,

-"what is" and "what has…"
-What? Again?

You're not feeling awkward, are you?

A little. I'm so--

Didn't I tell you not to worry?

Don't make me repeat myself.

Idiot!

Well…

-What's so funny?
-That hurts!

They're in their own little world.

Gross.

Wait, your translation.

It's absolutely terrible.

This is bad.

I can only do present progressive.

It's already p.m.?

Why?

No, he should be here soon.

Izumi.

Yes?

I wasn't saying your name, Miyamura.

Why did you answer?

Is that so?

I meant Sota's friend.

His first name is Izumi.

What?

I thought you were finally willing
to say my first name.

Why? Do you want me to call you that?

Yes.

A little.

If you get embarrassed,
that'd make me even more so.

Really?

I'm sorry.

Idiot.

Idiot Izumi.

Don't…

Don't add "idiot"

to my name.

-I'm back--
-Shut…

Shut it, idiot!

-Idiot…
-She is starting again.

-You're annoying, idiot!
-"Again"?

-Idiot…
-What's with your house?

You're annoying, idiot!
