Natsumi: There is a picture, right. Natsumi: That's him... Natsumi: I think...he's twenty--one now... Four years older than I am. Natsumi: Just about...a year ago...suddenly, he said he was going to Tokyo... <28> Natsumi: He said he found a job. I don't look like it, but I'm a sissy, so I said, "no," like a spoiled brat... Natsumi: I said that if we separated, our hearts would be apart a far as the distance. But... Natsumi: He said when he could save up some money, he would invite me here and we would live together. So, I let him. Natsumi: For the first month, he called me every day. He said he didn't have a phone, so I couldn't call him... I just had to wait for his call. But then he started not to call me... After three months, I didn't hear from him... <29> Natsumi: I couldn't bear it, so I came to Tokyo. He told em where he was working when he used to call me every day, so i thought I could see him if I went there. But the other employees always kicked me out, so I couldn't even see him... Natsumi: His name is Kouji Shimizu. You'll know his face from the picture. But, I think it's hopeless... He must have a new girlfriend... Natsumi: I've already given up, so... And am ready for death, too... Ai: What are you talking about. I'm sure I'll bring him here, so! You can't give up!! Sound: Ba. <30> Ai: I told her, "I'm sure I will," but... If i can't bring him, Natsumi-chan may quit living... Ai: Okay! Take a chance!! Sound: Gu. Sound: Ba. <31> Sound: Gya gya. Ba ba. Zudada. Don. Ga. Dogyan. Ai: Noisy... Ai: Ugh... Expensive. Ai: Five thousand yen gone so quick... <32> Sound: Dogyagya do do do da da zugya gigya dagya ban ban ba. Ai: What is this... <33> Sound: Don dadada zugyan gya gya ban do do go zan. Ai: ...you know!? Boy: Eh!? Ai: Where is the guy named Shimizu!!? Boy: He's dancing over there!! <35> Ai: I don't know what... But, it's impressive... <37> Girl: Shimizu-san!! Girl: Look at me Shimizu-san! Girl: Shimizu-san!! Ai: He's so popular... Ooops, it's not the time to be impressed! Ai: Excuse me! Get away!! Ai: Hey! Shimizu!! <38> Girl: What a bitch! Girl: She called him Shimizu... Sound: Zawa zawa. Ai: Natsumi-chan is in danger!! Please come to see her!! <39> Kouji: I don't know who you're talking about? <40> Ai: If you don't come, Natsumi-chan will die!! Kouji: Hey! Since when can some junior high kid come in here!? Boy: Oh, sorry. Ai: I'm begging you, so please come see her!! Anyway! Whatever you think!! Ai: It's cowardice to leave something so vague!! <41> Lady: Who is that kid? <42> Lady: Your persistent ex-girlfriend... Lady: Is she her friend? Kouji: She's really annoying. <43> Lady: You say annoying, but you look glum. Lady: Is it possible... Lady: That you still...can't forget about her... Kouji: Impossble.
