“Because I can see, all that you are.”
Page 2
Kou: Are you coming to the cultural festival the day after tomorrow? Right.
Futaba (thinking): There are a lot of things that I want to ask Kou.
Futaba (thinking): Just now…
Page 3
Futaba (thinking): He kissed my hair? Am I wrong? He said that he “lost his temper.” Was that because I was talking to Kikuchi-kun?
Futaba (thinking): I really want to ask him. I could only hear a little bit of the person on the other end of the line.
Kou: Oh well then – Come over and watch your safety? If there’s anything you don’t know then call me again. Okay. Then it’s settled.
Page 4
Futaba (thinking): My good mood was so easily destroyed. That’s why on the way home, I only talked about some meaningless things. I just only wanted to go through the motions. Maybe that was extremely stupid of me.
Page 5
Futaba: …Well bye then.
Kou: Bye.
Futaba (thinking): But in the moment when I heard the voice on the phone, I suddenly saw the bond between Kou and that person. And I disliked that.
Futaba (thinking): Right now I must be the most narrow-minded person in the whole world…
Page 6
Kou: …
Phone: beep beep beep beep beep
Voice: The number that you have called is not in the area or has already been disconnected ---
Kou (thinking): It won’t go through--- Idiot.
Kominato: Oh.
Page 7
Kominato: You’re finally back.
Kou: Kominato? Why are you here?
Kominato: Nothing really. I wanted to call before I came over, but my phone’s battery ran out. And then even though I came, I didn’t know when you would come home. I was going to go home myself, but it looks like I was unsuccessful. (It’s just like that. Please let me charge my phone too.)
Kou: …I know.
Kominato: Huh? What?
Kou: Your phone wasn’t connecting just now.
Page 8
Kominato: I can’t take it. This must be telepathy. Ah, if that’s the case, then I can sense something else. Chips! You want to eat them, right?!
Kou: Really? Pizza-flavored?
Kominato: Eh? Didn’t you want French gravy-flavored chips?
Kou: Right now I feel more like pizza-flavored. (But French gravy-flavored chips are always welcome.)
Text: Telepathy failed.
Page 9
Kominato: Kou, even if you didn’t overprotect her like that, there shouldn’t be any problems right? I can understand wanting to do something for someone in the same circumstances. But I think establishing new relationships at a new school would be good for her. Don’t you agree?
Kou: Ah--- you’re right.
Kominato: Then you shouldn’t take on so much for her.
Page 10
Kou: Yeah, but until she can do that and until she can adjust to her new environment, there’s no way I can just abandon her. At this time, I think it’s best for someone to be there for her.
Kominato: So it’s like that. Kou, you
Page 11
Kominato: must’ve been in a lot of pain before. We should’ve met earlier. If that was the case ---
Page 12
Kominato: I would’ve been there for you at the very start. (Text: Very serious.)
Kou: Cat…
Kominato: Huh?
Kou: I’d like to show it to you? (Kou is trying his best to be a good host.)
Kominato: Ah, let me see. Let me see---
Page 13
Kou: Wait a second. I’ll bring it over.
Kominato: Okay---
Kominato (thinking): Hm… But that story just now and how annoyed Kou was at school today.
Kou (flashback): You’re so noisy!
Kominato (thinking): I don’t think there’s much of a connection.
Text on box: Class 1-3. Tanaka Kou.
Page 14
Kominato (thinking): Is this stuff from middle school? Alto flute, how nostalgic!!
Kominato: And there’s also his notebook from when he was still Tanaka. Oh--- it’s quite neat. Is there anything strange written here?
Kou: I brought it.
Kominato: Kou… You…
Text on the notebook: Yoshioka Futaba
Page 15
Text: Ripping it away
Kominato: Yoshioka…
Kou: That was from before!
Kominato: You liked her before? Yoshioka?
Page 16
Kominato: And now? What about now? Do you like her?
Kou: You’re quite annoying.
Kominato: Yaaaa ---
Text: Kicking about
Page 17
Kominato: Isn’t it great though – you should be together! Confess. Attack, attack. She doesn’t have a boyfriend anyway.
Kou: But I don’t feel this is the right time to do something like that. (Probably.)
Kominato: What?
Kou: Like the story about my friend that I told you just now…
Kominato: Ha? But that’s irrelevant. That matter is that! This matter is this! Hee--- Yoshioka. Hee---
Kominato: That friend I was just talking about sent a text. Sorry, I have to step out for a moment. Ah, right. The time. I think during the day I should be in the classroom.
Page 18
Kominato (thinking): The voice… is quite high. Ah… that friend is…
Kou: Okay, so it’s settled.
Kominato: Kou. It won’t work, this sort of thing. You shouldn’t worry so much about other people.
Page 19
Kominato (thinking): What an idiot, that Kou.
Kou (flashback): It’s no problem. I’ll make sure that the thing you’re thinking about won’t happen.
Kominato (thinking): Why can’t you understand. It’s a mess no matter how I think about it… this sort of thing. What an idiot.
Page 20
Small text: Where should I put this?
Sorry, could you move over a bit.
Class reps are preparing for the night festival ---
Page 21
Futaba (thinking): Hu… I’m so tired. I can finally rest for a while. Even though we’re both responsible for helping with the night festival preparations, I didn’t see Kou anywhere. Meh, even if I did see him I wouldn’t know what to say.
Page 22
Futaba (thinking): The cultural festival is tomorrow. That person on the phone will come here tomorrow… I’m a little scared. Because that voice was ---
Touma: What’s wrong?
Page 23
Touma: Why do you look so glum?
Futaba: Ah, Kikuchi-kun. Ah…hm, I feel like there are a lot of things I don’t understand…
Touma: Things you don’t understand?
Futaba: That… Can I ask you a question that’s a little bit strange?
Touma: Hmm? (What is it?)
Futaba: You… guys.
Touma: Hmm?
Futaba: …Are you able to, with a girl that you have no feelings for,
Page 24
Futaba: kiss?
Touma: Ah, Yoshioka-san… Were you kissed?
Futaba: No! No! I wasn’t! (I wasn’t!)
Touma (thinking): She hasn’t been kissed…!
Futaba: But, I just wanted to ask, are guys able to do stuff like that.
Page 25
Touma: To tell the truth, there are a lot of guys who are able to kiss just because they think it’s fun or if the situation called for it. Even if the other person wasn’t someone they liked.
Futaba (thinking): Even if it wasn’t someone they liked…
Futaba: So it’s like that.
Touma: Ah! But not all guys are like that! There are a lot of guys who consider a kiss meaningless if it isn’t with someone they like. I’m one of them.
Page 26
Futaba: That’s right… there are people who can and people who can’t. Of course. Sorry I asked you such a pointless question. Forget it.
Touma (thinking): I didn’t manage to get my point across –
Futaba (thinking): Probably Kou only did it because the situation called for it. Even if he said that he “just lost his temper,” maybe he was feeling tired because of something else.
Page 27
Futaba: Wuuaaaah. So annoying--- Really--- Even if I was determined to try hard, I became weak as soon as I hit an obstacle. I haven’t grown up at all ---
Touma (thinking): Her hair dangling there. It’s really cute.
Futaba: I’m still exactly the same as I was before. I haven’t changed at all…
Page 28
Touma: You just haven’t noticed it yourself. You’re definitely changing bit by bit.
Futaba: Is… that… so…
Touma: If you’re strong at one point, and weak at another, aren’t you be able to look at things from different points of view?
Page 29
Touma: Shouldn’t changes be born during these sorts of pivots? If Yoshioka-san is pivoting from strong to weak, then you must be changing slowly. Everyone else is doing the same, changing bit by bit.
Page 30
Touma: If you want to change, then just keep pivoting. If you pivot a lot, then maybe you’ll discover something new that you never noticed before.
Page 31
Futaba: Something new…?
Touma: Yes.
Futaba: Right… You’re right. Pivots are good! I feel like I’ve been encouraged to see that I’m not useless. I feel better now. Thank you.
Touma: ….
Futaba: I’ll be going back then. Bye-bye.
Page 32
Touma (thinking): (I didn’t manage to get my point across again.) Looks like if I want to access her heart, I need to be a bit more direct… The guy who almost kissed Yoshioka-san… (Kou, was it.) Does that guy like Yoshioka-san as well.
Page 33
Touma (thinking): Pivot some more. Pivot even more and start to like me.
Page 34
Girl: We’re almost done over here. You can go back to the classroom by yourself.
Futaba: Okay.
Futaba (thinking): Kou is already back. Ah… I really do like him…
Futaba (thinking): Sometimes strong, sometimes weak.
Page 35
Futaba (thinking): Maybe everybody is really like that. Yuuri, Shuuko, Kominato-kun, and everyone else in our class are all like that. We’re all pivoting.
Futaba (thinking): Slowly, bit by bit, maturing into adults.
Page 36
Futaba (thinking): Like that. Like that.
Futaba: Okay. Where should I go help?
Kominato: Ah… Ah! Yoshioka! Kou is looking for you!
Futaba: Huh? Really? What is it?
Page 37
Futaba: Kou, what is it?
Kou: ? (What? What?)
Kominato: That matter is that matter! This matter is this matter!!
Page 38
Kou (thinking): That guy…
Futaba: Huh? I guess you weren’t looking for me?
Kou: No. I called you here. I want to nail this. You go hold it down over there.
Futaba: Understood!
Kou: Ah, wait a second.
Page 39
Kou: Wear these or you’ll get splinters.
Futaba: Thanks.
Futaba (thinking): That’s right. I haven’t even confessed. Nothing’s set in stone yet. Maybe tomorrow, I’ll go back to being strong.
Page 40
Futaba (thinking): That would be great.
Kominato: Welcome--- Home--- Master----
Page 41
Kou: Kominato, you should at least wear some tights. That looks disgusting.
Kominato: (No way!) I shaved my legs so they’re super-smooth. I don’t need to wear them.
Bubbles: Doesn’t Murao-san look super-handsome? Makita-san also looks cute.
Futaba (thinking): It’s quite lively here…
Page 42
Futaba (thinking): When will the person on the phone arrive? They should be here soon. As expected, I’m not able to calm down. My heart is pounding.
Kou: Ah, you didn’t get lost on the way here?
Page 43
Phone-chan: No, I didn’t get lost---
Bubble: Hey, who’s that---? Someone Mabuchi-kun knows?
Phone-chan: Speaking of which, your getup is pretty out there --- Ahaha, how disgusting.
Kou: Okay, okay. Come in.
Page 44
Phone-chan: Okay, then--- I’m coming in.
Futaba (thinking): This person is the girl on the phone…
