I've got no memory

of how I managed to get home

78-2 Youko-saaan
Help please!

78-3 Hmm?

78-4 Uuuu

79-1 Uwaah
What the hell is this?

Natsukawa-saaaan

Please! Don't go to sleep here!

79-2 Nn

You suit is going to get all wrinkled

Nn

Ugh
Beer breath

79-3 Ulp

Kyaaa
No, don't!

79-4 Stop! Don't puke here!

The sink! The sink!

79-5 My head hurts...

80-1 My head hurts

My throat is so dry

My head hurts...

No, it's

My mouth is nasty

sfx: zukin zukin zukin

80-2 Hurts...

I'm seeing flashes of light

sfx: zukin

80-3 Am I in trouble?

The flashes...

Are too bright...

81-2 sfx: Gaba

Uuunn

82-1 Guwaaa

Ah

You awake?

sfx: kan kan kan

82-2 Hurts...

Ah, wait a second

Don't move

82-3 I'll make some hot tea

82-4 Nnnn

sfx: bata bata bata

82-5 Fwaaaa

83-1 Here

It's hot, so be careful

83-2 Nn...

Slowly. Slowly...

Try not to move your head, ok?

83-3 Minori-chaaan!
The Bath is filled!

sfx: shipan

83-4 Uuuaa...

Youko-san!

Want me to go in with you?

sfx: zuki zuki zuki

83-5 I'll help you out?
In more ways than one, hm?

sfx: bun bun

83-6 Aaahh

Be sure to warm up and sweat it out
Get the alcohol out of you

sfx: zukan zukan

84-1 Slowly, ok?

84-2 Chyapon

84-3 This is some sort of trap

84-4 Capricious

It's the rule of carrot and stick

sfx; boko boko

84-5 Don't get fooled

Don't take this seriously

But

No matter how much I think that

sfx: pasha

85-1 Minori-chan
Has your head stopped hurting?

The okayu's just ready to eat [soupy rice]

85-2 I made the okayu with hoji tea

There's umeboshi [pickled sour plum]
and nozawana [a leafy vegitable]

Salmon
and kyarabuki [wild vegetables]

85-3 Ume...

Ok, here

Water

Ok, ok

85-5 I ended up moved by their kindness

...I'm sorry

86-1 Last night
I really

Was a mess...

86-2 Oh come on!
It's not a big deal!

You've helped us out!

You owe me one, and I'm gonna make sure you pay up!

86-3 Youko-san!

So?
What caused all that?

Did something happen at work?

86-5 "Cause"?

There's no way I can separate it into a single cause

Yeah
Well...

87-1 You see...

I explained about the new assignment

About what the CEO said

About how people in the company reacted

I answered whatever they asked

87-2 And?

You really turned it down?

87-3 Yeah...

I'm dumbfounded!

That's blown past honest, and even stupid honesty

It's just dumb!

88-1 Somehow
I feel I've hear this before

Look, it's not a promotion, it's not a raise, it's a new assignment, right?

88-2 To get all worked up about that

Is to take it way more seriously than it deserves!

88-3 But...

Chief said he was jealous...

There'll always be people like that!

88-4 People who always get upset not matter what

When they get that way
They are always complaining under their breath!

88-5 D...do...

You think so?

So you know where you're going next?

89-1 Next...?

Well, that's how it is, right?

89-2 When they go out of their way to pick an employee suddenly like that

It's for opening a new line of business, right?

89-3 Ah!!

"I won't listen to orders"

"But I want a paycheck"

Don't you think you're a little full of yourself?

90-1 Before you hand in your letter of resignation
You might get yourself fired, hmm?

Bleeeeh

Youko-san!

Shit...

90-2 I let my feelings get away from me...

Well

If you're prepared for that to happen, I guess it's ok

90-3 The blood just rushed to my head

I really didn't think things through...

90-4 I just
Was brandishing my childish ideals

91-1 ...I'm very sorry

92-1 The other day...

I didn't know my station
and ended up saying too much

Ah, hello?

92-2 I just about to email over the details

Please take a look at them

92-3 Oh crap, he was on the phone...

Yes

The project lead will be over to introduce himself in the next couple of days

Yes
Thanks

92-4 sfx: pu

93-1 Um...

93-2 I'm sorry for coming back here after all of that, but...

93-3 I'm putting down "Natsukawa Minori" as the project lead
Any problems?

93-4 Wha?

If there's no problem, then I'm sending out this email

It's ok, right?

93-6 I...
Thought I was going to be fired...

Hahaha

Who said anything about that?

94-1 From the start I intended you to work on this and picked you or something

94-2 Or maybe
Since this is a business line that may fail

I'm setting you up to be the scapegoat or something

94-3 Or maybe

94-4 I've taken a private interest in you

and want to keep you by my side or something?

95-1 That's just for instance! For instance!

Well, in any case

Heh heh

sfx: dan

95-2 Who knows what the truth is?

95-3 There is more

Than one truth

95-4 There's no time to establish a separate division, so I'm not making any changes

But
I want you to take over on this work as soon as possible

95-5 I know someone...

Who is like you

96-1 A woman?

96-2 ...a lady, yeah

Ah, a good woman then

96-3 Yeah, A good woman

I thought of her

No

96-4 I thought of both of them

96-2 That'd be ok, wouldn't it?
Even if you got fired!

97-1 I'm working

And Youko-san is...

She's bringing in income now!

97--2 ...hmmm

There's that...

97-3 Ok!

We can feed at least one deadbeat male

Right?

So, Natsukawa-san, just do want you want

97-4 Just do whatever you think is right!

98-1 No...
I couldn't do...

Thanks, but...

98-2 And then...

98-3 What the hell

Really?

After we were ready to...

98-4 Mi No Ri Chaaan!

Let's sleep together!

99-1 That night, we slept crammed together

Move over a bit

There's no room!

We're not getting three pillows in there

99-2 Minori-chaan, let me use your arm as a pillow

Ah! Me too!

99-3 This must have used up all your luck as a lady's man, huh?

99-4 Just like they say

You've got a beauty on either arm

99-5 Um, well...

It's not so much that as

100-1 It feels like being crucified...
