It's nothing... Indeed... Memory or anything doesn't matter so much... I thought I would be attacked more by sadness, but as I try to be happy, so, somehow, I'm doing okay... Ai: I feel rather happier that I didn't disappear when I lost my memory... Ai: Oh... I see. Thinking that way reasons that I'm okay... Ai: But... If I think about where Youta is and what he's doing, I feel hurt, so I'll try not to think about him... <69> Girl: Ai!! Let's play Uno!! Ai: Okay!! Youta: ...So with timidity... I'm beaten... Youta: Just because we didn't date yesterday... Would things be so confused if...we had a date every Saturday since we started going out. Just one missing seems to make a crack between us. <70> Youta: ...Ah... Moemi: ...If you're not going to talk... Moemi: I have something to do, so... <71> Youta: She's angry after all... Youta: Then... Maybe I should have stopped when she said, "No..." Youta: But, somewhere I read that a girl's, "No," doesn't mean it... Youta: No! No! I'm worrying about manuals again!! Youta: Ah... Girls are difficult... I don't know what Moemi-chan is thinking... Youta: I don't want to worry about manuals, but... I wish there were a textbook for love somewhere... <72> Ai: What's wrong? Youta: Eh? Nothing in particular... Nothing. Ai: I doubt it... Ai: Something happen with Moemi-chan? Che... I'm expecting something strange... Youta: No, no! Because I just now promised to go on a date after school, so it's not like that... <73> Sound: Zaki. Ai: Oh... Ah... It's just talking. I feel hurt just hearing that they are doing well. Ai: I haven't asked... Youta: It's not like that. It is... I didn't promise to go on a date... <74> Youta: What should I do about Moemi-chan... Should I leave her alone. I have to persuade Ai-chan on the illustration, so... Sound: Chira. Youta: Ah... She's sleeping well. <75> Youta: Please. Ai: I can't. It was just an accident. Youta: It wasn't! Youta: You have the talent to color! You're better than I am! Please help me, the dead line is close, too. Ai: I helped you for one date, yesterday. It's boring to me. I don't want to do it. Youta: It'll be interesting if you keep working. So, let's!? <76> Youta: If you try, you can! Right. Sound: Suta suta. Youta: Let's do it together!! Sound: Kuru. Ai: I'd do it even if you didn't tell me! Youta: Eh? Ai: But, it's kind of embarrassing if we do it together, but if you want to no matter what, then let's!! Sound: Dohi. Ai: Bye. Sound: Kii. Youta: Ah, wait!! Youta: Don't fool with me. Let's talk it over. Ai: What do you want. Are you trying to make me wet here!? Youta: Then... Anyway, think it over. Okay. <77> Ai: It's impossible after all... I'm thinking about leaving your house. Youta: Eh. Ai: Because if I were there, it's harder for Moemi-chan to come, and an inconvenience. Don't you think so? Ai: It's your dream, so it's better you do it by yourself... Sound: Batan. <78> Ai: It's all lies!! It's fun to color, and I want to help if it's possible. But! Then Moemi-chan wouldn't feel good, and I know it will be painful if I'm with him... Ai: So... Maybe i should leave his house... I don't want to do it... Shit... Ai: Ku! No, no!! I have to think how lucky it was that I didn't disappear! But... I haven't come to any conclusions... <79> Youta: I'm being avoided by Moemi-chan, and Ai-chan told me she was leaving the house... What's wrong with me. Youta: Is everyone going to leave me... If the relationship between Moemi-chan and I were to break naturally... Could I get her back... Youta: When my picture book is finished, I want her to be the first to proud of me... Youta: Ai-chan... Youta: It has to be you after all... My coloring doesn't work... <80> Sound: Goso goso. Sound: Pusa. Sound: Su. Sound: Doki doki doki doki doki doki. Sound: Goso goso. Sound: Posu. <81> Sound: Doki doki doki doki. Sound: Doki doki doki. Sound: Doki doki doki. Moemi: Kyaa. Guy: Hehe. Sound: Gu. Sound: Guwa. <82> Youta: It's just a meaningless day...without anything. It's already the sixth hour... Ai-chan still hasn't told me OK and I haven't even seen her face... Teacher: Hey, Hayakawa. Aren't you cold like that? You always wear long sleeves and pants. Moemi: Ah... I forgot them. Boy: Hya hya. I didn't expect to see short pants this season!! Boy: Outstanding! Sound: Za za za za. <83> Teacher: Hey... Where is Hayakawa? Girl: Eh. She's gone since the gym class let out, right. Girl: That's right. Moemi: I can't...bear it...anymore... <84> Sound: Buwa. Youta: Moemi-chan!? Youta: Mo-Moemi-chan!? Moemi: I'm sorry!! But, I can't...after all... Ai: Youta... If you don't have a date with Moemi-chan, then let's go home... <85> Youta: Moemi-chan was fighting her shock from the day of the storm... She said she felt bad and couldn't see me... Somehow, Moemi-chan always looks fragile, and scared... I started to like you more. Youta: Anyway, I think I can concentrate on the illustration now... If Ai-chan helps me now, then I won't have anything to wo... Ai: Hi. Ai: What are you doing. Change your clothes and let's start, now!! Narrator: Youta's cleaning up after everything seems okay... Youta didn't know this came from Ai's complicated feelings of pain and jealousy. Ai's feelings of liking Youta can't hold back her guilt... End of Chapter
