Nao: No more than...
Nao: Owner and employee...?
Makito: ...
Nao: Wha...
Nao: What the heck...? Are you being serious...?
Makito: ...
Makito: Serious or no, it's the truth.
Nao: That's not what I meant!!

Page 3
Nao: It's whether you like or hate Yui...
Nao: I'm asking if you have any special feelings for her!!
Sayuri: Nao-chi...?
Makito: ...
Mukai: Um...Makito-san...
Mukai: Have you seen...Yui-chan...?
Mukai: I can't find her...

Nao: Don't tell me...
Nao(thought): She...was listening---?
Makito: ...
Makito: Ryan...
Is not around either---

Page 5
Ryan: Yui!
SFX: *Pop*
Yui: thanks...
SFx: *Gulp*
Yui: ...
Makito: We are...nothing more than owner and employee...
Yui: ~~~~
Ryan: ...
Ryan: Yui!

Page 6
Ryan: How do you get to,
Ryan: The Tokyo Tower?
Yui: Huh?
Yui: I don't know...maybe...go to Marunouchi Station...
Ryan: Marunouchi...?
Yui: It's the subway...
Ryan: Oh! It's MRT!
Yui: MRT?
*Mass Rapid Transit: It's the equivalent of subways in Singapore, although the trains run above ground as well.
Ryan: Have you ever climbed the Tokyo tower before?
Yui: No...I haven't...
Ryan: Ok! Neither have I!
Ryan: I rode in the Hato Bus yesterday.
I went to many famous sites in Tokyo, and it was really fun.
Ryan: But the bus didn't go to the Tokyo Tower...
Even though I was looking forward to it...

Page 7
Ryan: Let's go...
Ryan: Climb it together!
Yui: ...
Ryan: There aren't any symbols as big as the Tokyo Tower in Singapore.
Ryan: We do have skyscrapers...but none over 300m tall after all...
Ryan: I definitely would like to climb it once.
Ryan: And I want to look down onto the streets of Tokyo.
Yui: Um...the lion...was it...?
Ryan: Huh?
Yui: It's a symbol, isn't it...? Of Singapore...

Page 8
Ryan: Yes, the upper half is a lion, Singa, which was the origin of the name Singapore...
The word means lion in the language of Sanskrit...
Ryan: The lower half is a fish, which symbolizes the port city!
It's the symbol of Singapore!
Ryan: But even the Merlion Tower of Sentosa stands only 37m tall. TN: Sentosa is a popular island resort to the south of Singapore.
Yui: Water comes out of the mouth right...?
Ryan: That would be the one in Merlion Park.
Ryan: The Merlion in Sentosa is a weapon that shoots laser out of its eyes.
Yui: Huh?
Ryan: A street in Tokyo can be turned into a burning field in an instant.
Yui: ...
Yui: That's a lie!! (side) You're definitely lying!!
Ryan: Ahahahaha! But laser beam really does come out of its eyes, and smoke from its nose! (side) Although they are just for illumination.
Old woman: Excuse me~~~

Page 9
Ryan: Yes?
Old woman: I'm sorry...but do you know how to get to a place called Otake-Mukaihara?
Ryan: Otake-Mukaihara right? Um...
Yui: ...
Old woman: I'm going to see my grandson.
Ryan: Please wait a moment! I'll go ask for you!
Old woman: Thank you...
Yui: Transfer to the Ooedo line at Nakano-Sakaue Station---
Then go on Nerima Station's Yuurakuchoo line---
Old woman: Nakano...
Old woman: Nerima...
Ryan: We will go with you until the transfer!

Page 10
Ryan: So it's already too late...
Yui: Haha...
Ryan: Huh...
Yui: Aha...hahahahaha!
Ryan: You're laughing too much, Yui...
Yui: But your dumbfounded face just now---!
Yui: ...

Page 11
Yui: Ryan...
Yui: Thank you...for today...
Yui: We didn't get to climb the tower...
Yui: But thanks to you, it was fun!
Yui: Sigh~~ But it's now over---
Yui: I don't want to go home...
Yui(thought): I don't know how I would face Makito...
Ryan: In that case...
Should we stay at a hotel...?

Page 12
Yui: ...
Ryan: ?
Yui: So even you say stuff like that...
Ryan: Ah, no...
I didn't mean anything weird by that! Really!
SFX: *Snicker*
Yui: I know...since you are such a good person...
Ryan: ...
Ryan: I'm not...
Ryan: A good person...

Page 13
Ryan: I do some really sneaky things...
Ryan: We hugged...and then kissed...
Ryan: And I even lied...
Yui: ...
Yui: You know...I...
Yui: Think that...
Yui: I'm definitely being conceited...
Yui: Up till now...
I overcame many things together with Makito...

Page 14
Yui: So that's why...
He must like me a little bit as well...
Yui: Is what I thought...
Yui: Even though I know nothing about him...
I just inflated his image inside my mind...
Yui: I was totally blown off by his words today... (side) Sigh...
Yui: The image of Makito within me, that is...
Yui: I wonder...what have I been looking for all this time...
Yui: I don't know anymore...
Yui: At that time...
What was he thinking...?
Makito: Win!!
Yui: What about that other time...?
And that time...? And the other time...?
Yui: ...
Yui: When I close my eyes...

Page 15
Yui: Until now...
Yui: Even in complete darkness, Makito is the only one I can see clearly...
Ryan: ...
You...can't see him now...?
Yui: ...
Yui: He's starting to become blurry...
Ryan: I want to erase it...
Yui: Huh?
Ryan: Makito's existence within you---
Ryan: I want to erase it completely.
Ryan: Yui...

Page 16
I like you...!!

Page 17
Ryan: The real reason I came to Japan---
Ryan: Was to meet you---
Ryan: After hearing all the things Souichirou said about you...
I became interested in you...
Ryan: And the moment I laid my eyes on you...
Ryan: The feeling...
Ryan: Became one of love---!

Page 18
