01x12 - When She's Upset the Rain Falls and the Dark Night Descends

[bunniefuu]

Finally, we made it back.

I'm gonna pass out.

Oh!

I mean, I'm still functioning.

I can grab my stuff.

Well, at least,

let me unload it.

Quite the drive, wasn't it?

I didn't think

it would be this late.

Here, let me take care

of your bag for you.

I'll take my own bags, thanks!

And just how late

did we get back?

Oh, it's uh,

almost 7 o'clock now.

Ah, perfect.

That's a nice time to start.

- Huh?

- Okay.

Good night, Kirishima.

[footsteps receding]

Night.

WHEN SHE'S

UPSET THE RAIN FALLS

AND THE DARK

NIGHT DESCENDS

Hey, have you guys seen

Yoshino around this morning?

I thought I'd attend her

summer lessons with her,

and we should probably

get a move on pretty soon.

Oh.

Sota gave her a lift already.

Wait.

She left with Inamori?

Hmm.

[school bell chimes]

[KIRISHIMA]

Yo, Yoshers!

Early start, huh?

I had no clue

Inamori was driving you

until you were gone.

♪

Huh?

You remember

how you talked about

craving a parfait yesterday?

Let's grab one later!

Did everything in the lesson

make sense?

I'm still willing to tutor you.

They say

it's gonna rain in two days.

You mentioned wanting to

air out your futon,

so I suggest

doing that tomorrow.

♪

I'm pretty sure

I'm speaking loud enough

for you to hear me, aren't I?

[INAMORI] Hey!

Welcome home, you two.

Hey, yeah. I just got back.

Thank you again for waking up

early enough to give me a ride.

No problem at all!

I always get up by 5:00 anyway.

Glad to see you walked home

with Kirishima.

What?

I walked home alone.

- It was very peaceful.

- [BOTH] Uh?

See ya.

[INAMORI] Uh.

You aren't invisible,

so what did you do to her?

Hmm.

♪

We'll have our talk once

we're back in Tokyo, okay?

Put a sock in it

and go for now.

Hmm.

[insects chirping]

You poor lovesick pup.

How's she ignored you exactly?

[KIRISHIMA]

I've rung her doorbell

about a hundred times

in the last hour

and she won't answer.

- [doorbell ringing]

- [TSUBAKI] Oh, my.

That's just splashing oil

on the fire.

I suggest you stop.

So, then you think

she's really angry?

I kinda hoped that stuff was

water under the bridge

at this point.

Maybe if you hadn't

brought knives into it,

but alas, you did.

At least the good news is

Yoshi's anger has

a literal timer,

and after a period she decides,

the ice queen will thaw out

and welcome you

into her castle.

Sit tight

until the sunshine returns.

Any clue

how long it'll take her

to thaw out this time around?

Hmm.

Well, she has ignored Shoma

in a similar fashion

on occasion

and based on those instances,

I'd give her another 24 hours

before I'd try again.

- Hey, Tsubaki.

- Uh?

Dinner's finally served.

Coming!

I'm on a date with Renji,

so bye now!

[line disconnects]

Hmm.

♪

[KIRISHIMA]

Yoshino!

[doorbell rings]

You know how much you said

you like chikuwabu, right?

Well, I made a fresh pot of it

and brought over a bowl for ya.

It's good.

♪

- Excuse me, Inamori.

- Uh?

We have lemons

and powdered sugar

somewhere around here,

don't we?

Would ya mind

if I put them to use?

[INAMORI] Yeah, sure.

Be my guest.

Yoshino!

You like lemon custard,

don't you?

Want one of these madeleines

I baked?

They taste best

when you share 'em!

Hey, sorry to bug you again.

Do we have 50 grams

of mirror glaze,

some cocoa butter,

and a 100 grams

of chocolate chips?

Along with

a large baking stone,

a Brix refractometer,

and a mesh baking mat as well?

[banging loudly]

I made you a cake!

Look! A whole cake

you can eat while we talk!

I know I brought this on myself

and I was in the wrong!

But if we don't talk, I might

keel over right out here!

What's it mean

when your girlfriend

just brushes off every gesture

you make for two days?

[TACHIBANA]

Means I don't give a sh*t.

[INAMORI] Wow, it's like

I walked into a bakery.

[KIRISHIMA] I didn't want them

to go to waste.

Help yourselves.

She still hasn't opened up

her doors to you yet?

[KIRISHIMA]

No.

Which is weird

since she'll normally

let me in after I apologize.

So I guess

I'll die.

[TACHIBANA]

Aren't you a masochist?

If you're suffering,

that's good.

[KIRISHIMA] I'll admit

I was enjoying the agony

quite a bit up

until this morning.

Then I started wondering

if she intends to make me

squirm for a month or more.

Not knowing when it will end

is a t*rture

even I can't endure!

- [growls]

- What if she's sick?

There could be a disease that

makes her unable to recognize

certain people she knows.

That would explain it.

[TACHIBANA] Did your IQ

suddenly drop to three?

Stupid.

I'm just saying

a trip to the doctor's

wouldn't hurt anything, right?

Wrong, now shut the hell up!

Maybe a good neurosurgeon

could help.

Why are you still talking?

[INAMORI] Uh.

And there's the blood.

[thunder rumbling]

[knocking on glass]

[KIRISHIMA] Yoshino?

Are you okay?

[rain splattering]

Uh.

[sighs]

[thunder rumbling]

[rain splattering]

[door slides open]

- Uh?

♪

[YOSHINO]

Are you here because you had

something to say?

Drop dead gorgeous.

- [YOSHINO] Hm?

- Wait.

Then am I not invisible

to you anymore?

No, because you never were.

[phone beeps]

Ah.

Slightly early,

but only by a few seconds.

What?

It was almost

7 o'clock on the dot

when we got home

three days ago.

So I set an alarm

that would go off

at 7 o'clock

on the dot tonight.

See?

STARTS: AUGUST 3RD 7:00

ENDS: AUGUST 6TH 7:00

[KIRISHIMA]

Then, my punishment's over?

That all depends on you.

I bet you still don't know

why I was upset

despite having days to wonder.

[KIRISHIMA]

Oh. Well

a lot of things come to mind.

You have three new rules,

first is you don't contact

Shoma unless I say so.

You don't pick fights with him,

and you don't bite

if he starts.

Is that understood?

Yeah, got it.

Why should I believe you?

Because I'm sorry.

I guess the silent treatment

really was effective.

But, uh,

why the silent treatment?

If you didn't give out

empty apologies like candy,

I could possibly have a serious

conversation with you.

Then you get all into it

whenever I scold you,

so what choice do I have

other than

ignoring you entirely?

- [KIRISHIMA] Hmm.

- The only dolts

I'm forced to do this with

are you and Shoma.

And you are justified

but I'd appreciate it

if we don't repeat this.

[YOSHINO] Then you better not

pull this crap again

because next time, three days

will feel like three minutes.

I'll note it in the contract

I write up for you.

Honestly, how long

were you sitting out here?

Um.

I'm not positive, but I think

since around 8:00 or so.

8:00 a.m.?

Were you trying to catch

pneumonia or something?

Let me be clear

in case your mind's muddled.

I'm the only person

you're allowed to bother.

Hmm.

[YOSHINO]

And for the record,

I wasn't mad

because it was Shoma

who got roped

into your giant mess.

[KIRISHIMA]

Could've fooled me.

I mean, I was mad,

but it could've been Tsubaki,

a classmate,

or even a total stranger.

Just don't drag other people

into your bullshit.

Okay?

It's inevitable

that you'll cause trouble

down the road

one way or another.

So whenever that happens,

we'll handle it ourselves.

[KIRISHIMA] All right.

I promise.

You know, you're making it

really hard not to do this.

Ah!

Hm

What the heck, Kirishima?

It's like

you're the sun Goddess

who emerged from her cave.

Huh?

Seeing you after so long

made me realize

just how beautiful you are.

I could stare at you all day.

Come on.

What life did you lead

that lets you flatter girls

like that without laughing?

The truth's the truth.

Wearing the dress I bought you

might've helped

it slip out, though.

You look amazing.

Man, I have great taste.

I've been dodgin'

your every advance

for three days now,

so I wasn't about to

come out here looking meh

if you were ticked and in

the mood to k*ll or something.

Figured seeing me in this

would take the edge off

a little.

You don't have to worry

about me murdering you.

But if your goal was

to appease me,

mission achieved.

- Seeing you in the clothes

I buy is rare! -Uh!

Okay, look.

I didn't bring it up before

'cause it's really

the thought that counts

when it comes to givin' gifts,

but I like more casual,

everyday clothes,

not this flashy thing.

You're always in a dress.

And it's always casual.

I don't ever wear designer

stuff I get as presents.

- Why?

- I'm trying to keep them all

looking brand-new in case

you do something loony

and I need to come up

with bail money for you.

That's your plan

for me alone, right?

Yeah?

Thought maybe you say

that to all the guys.

The only dude I know

that I anticipate

havin' to sweat

the bail money for is you.

Sure about that?

[YOSHINO] What?

Oh.

You're thinking of Shoma.

He looks and acts tough,

but Shoma is doing just fine

and has direction to his life.

That's one thing he's got

a hell of an advantage

on over you.

Yeah, I can't say I disagree.

It's obvious

just from watching him.

Older people like him

and wanna pamper the guy.

Kids respect him

and he's also a hard worker.

Just the type of person

others naturally

wanna do things for.

And not to mention sociable.

That's a lot of talent.

He'll be an awesome Yakuza.

[YOSHINO]

Uh, the same goes for you.

Me?

No.

Certain things make a person

suited for the biz,

none of which

are traits I possess.

I don't have

a single long-term friend.

No one's fond of me

and they sure

don't put faith in me,

but since I don't trust

anyone either, it works.

Which is why I don't plan

on becoming Yakuza.

For someone

who doesn't like him,

you really pay Shoma

a lot of attention.

You don't always have to

like the subject you study.

But I've learned

he loves hanging with you.

It's one pastime for him,

but it's the only pastime

for me.

Huh?

No matter

where you are in a crowd,

I can always find you.

You easily stand out

from everybody else.

It's really cool.

You give off

this gentle glow almost.

I wonder what it is.

[YOSHINO] Well, what if

you meet someone else who glows

and you enjoy being

around them more than me?

Ha.

Good one.

[YOSHINO]

I'm serious.

Your feelings might change

if you manage to

make another friend.

And what about you?

You have friends growing up?

Turning the topic

back on me again.

So defensive.

I'm just asking.

[sighs]

All right.

I had a fairly average

amount of friends

in my elementary school years

but kids did talk

behind my back.

Then once I got

to middle school,

all my friend groups were gone.

[KIRISHIMA]

Do you know why?

[YOSHINO]

There were some older bullies

who set their sights on me.

Between my height

and my family,

they must've thought

I was full of myself.

[KIRISHIMA]

They didn't set you off?

That wasn't who I was,

even as a kid.

Plus, Shoma came around

in my first year,

and then I was kind of saved.

Once he was in the picture,

not even the bullies

would try to approach me.

So, what about you?

Well,

we have touched on this,

and while I don't have friends

I guess I had a serious attempt

to make some

at one point in my life.

Planned it out

pretty thoroughly even.

"Planned it out?"

Yeah.

But all that it amounted to

was a huge waste of my time.

How different would

our lives be

if I'd been born

closer like Toriashi was?

We could've met

when we were kids

and became fast friends.

Then gone through elementary,

middle school, and high school

staying glued at the hip.

You saying you wish we were

childhood pals instead?

Hmm, yeah.

Something like that.

Well, either way, we're here

and you're my boyfriend.

Uh.

'Spose you got me there.

I'm your boyfriend now!

Doubt I'll ever

get tired of saying that!

So, since we're

on the subject of "us,"

what are your expectations

for a "little leaguer?"

- [KIRISHIMA] A what?

- Tsubaki had this

whole analogy about baseball.

You're a pro

while I don't even know

- the right way to hold a ball.

- [scoffs]

When you put it like that,

I guess I do know

my way around the bases.

Hmm.

How would you feel about

us holding hands?

- As in now?

- Yeah.

- I guess if you want to.

- Only if you do.

What, like it's a big deal?

- Here.

- [exhales]

[rain splattering]

Hmm?

[KIRISHIMA]

You're cold.

Is it from the rain?

My hands have always been

a little bit on the cool side.

And, of course, you're

the opposite with hot hands.

Must have a good metabolism.

That's a rough scar.

Yeah.

It's what happens

when an infected wound

goes untreated.

Ah.

[rain splattering]

You're like sandpaper.

Sorry 'bout that.

I use lotion, but there's

only so much it can do.

It ain't causing me pain,

but isn't your scratchy skin

hurting you?

Actually, I've got some lotion

right here in my purse.

Ta-da.

Want it?

Hmm.

Part of why I got dressed up

was so we could eat parfaits

Cream is the last thing

I wanna see now.
