1- Once I had regained my senses, I noticed that the tree leaves are already started dancing with the winds.
2- The surrounding colour outside the window has become brown.
3- Sfx: Tick Tick
4- I have to // go for work…

6- Exhausted…

Page 5
1- Huh?
2- Kazama-san is on leave?
3- Well he called earlier and informed us that he isn’t feeling well and will report for work in the afternoon, // there should be other reason behind it…
4- ?
5- His submitted proposal has already failed 5 times…
6- Don’t ever come up with more foolish ideas. At least look at it from my point of view!
7- In addition, our departmental head’s mood was foul. // And he was chewed on real badly.
8- He must be feeling depressed now…
9- You can stop coming over here for the time being.

1- And next month his child will be attending the tuition classes for the school entrance examinations, // that is why he looks like he has some drive left in him,
2- Sfx: Haha
3- But when one is really unlucky, no matter what he does it will only be a failure.
4- …
5- Especially when you met up with setbacks and gave up eventually, allowing yourself to wallow in degeneration,
6- I still preferred to look at him struggling…
7- …
8- Aah…
9- Really…
10- Sfx: Rustle Rustle

1- Aiya! // Isn’t that Koharu-chan?
2- It’s landlord Oji-san.
3- What are you doing here?
4- I am looking for ladybird.
5- Are they still ladybirds around now?
6- !
7- Oji-san, what happened to your leg?
8- Aah… This? // I sprained my legs when climbing the stairs!
9- The doctor made a big fuss out of it… // It was casted quite badly right?

1- That’s right… // Koharu-chan, do you know Origami?
2- T/L note: Origami is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding. The goal of this art is to create a representation of an object using geometric folds and crease patterns preferably without gluing or cutting the paper, and using only one piece of paper.
3- I want you to teach me…
4- How to fold a paper crane (paper instructions)
5- It is getting colder recently, // My house’s old lady seems to get a cold…
6- The sick ward is too bare, that is why I want to fold a few paper cranes for her…
7- That’s right, how’s Masamune-kun recently?
8- Let me see here…
9- Is the room useful?
10- Right now, Masamune-kun doesn’t…
11- Seem like himself…

Page 9
1- Aiya! // Is his body feeling un well?
2- It’s his job… // He looks very troubled…
3- I… // wanted to attend Mama’s school and is preparing to undergo classes for the entrance exams,
4- That examination will be difficult… // but Masamune-kun even though he is tired, he still accompany me to revise the entire night.
5- Sfx: Yawn
6- Sfx: Pat Pat
7- When I asked him, is he okay…
8- He will only answer me that it doesn’t matter…
9- But I can see that he doesn’t seem like himself.

Page 10
1- I don’t understand… // what is going on with his job…
2- But if I am the cause of his exhaustion…
3- …
4- When the grown-ups sometimes… // set their mind and work towards a certain goal…
5- But the regret is that most of these people… // when they have hit their limitation, they will give up altogether…
6- …
7- Then there are times when even Oji-san doesn’t seem to be himself?
8- Of course!
9- Then… // Then at that time what did Oji-san do?
10- Eh?
