Chapter 57 - How could it be the same?
2: clack...
3: Wow, Mucchan.
4: Label is a first-class company.
5: I was such a child back then.
6: I can't believe I said such terrible things and dumped you like
that...

171)
1: Take me for real this time.
Chapter 57 - How could it be the same?
2: Make me yours...

173)
1: Who the hell would want you,
2: after all this time?
3: And so, I fantasized,
4: as I sat across from Yuka, the girl who dumped me 8 years ago.

174)
1: I couldn't even muster up a fake smile.
2: I continued to just push the long years' worth of anger
forward.
3: But Yuka just kept laughing happily, all by herself.
4(2b): What the hell do I care about some story about her co-
worker, who I don't even know? As usual, she really has no
consideration.
5: You've always been like this...
6: Isn't that funny?
7(2b): Earlier...you mentioned you'd be avoiding these reunions...
8: You hadn't
9: come either, right...?
10: I heard from Maruyama...

175)
1: I think
2: we probably avoided them for the same reason...
3: H-How could it be the same?!
4: I'm sorry. It's not like I dislike you, Mucchan...
5: She did cry back then.
6: But there's no way the pain of the dumper
7: could be equal to the pain of the dumped!
8: It's too late now.
9: You hurt me so cruelly back then, the least you could do is to
keep living on with a bit of torment on your conscience.

176)
1: Label cosmetics, right?!
2: That's so cool. It's top-class.
3(2b): Now really. And besides, I'm just in the sales department
there.
4: Wagging your tail like this and acting like nothing happened
isn't going to get you anywhere, you know?
5: Or maybe
6: now that I'm an adult,
7: you truly want to reconcile things?
8: Getting back together with you now
9: isn't going to fill the hole you left in me...I'm not that
stupid...I know.

177)
1: Who have I been
2: talking with, all this time?
3: Speaking of Label...
4: You know.
5: "Untouchable."
6: I read about it in a fashion mag
7: and bought it.

178)
1: But I'm not really a fan of "Rainbow-chan." I lean more towards
Asou Sayako, the producer.
2(small): She's been on TV...
3: She's your superior, right?
4: Ahh,
5-6: Yeah.
7: Although...she's in a completely different department...
8: Thank you very much for purchasing my company's products.
9(2b): There we go! You really are a first-class businessman!!
10: Ahahahaha.
11: Fufufu...
12: Haha...
13: I'm glad I came.
14: I'm so happy that we can laugh together like this.

179)
1: briiing
2: I'll be right bac.
3: She isn't
4: the Izumiya Yuka I used to know.
5: The Yuka I knew
6: never used rouge...
7: I've only been inside my head.
8: Arguing with the Izumiya Yuka who dumped me 8 years ago.

180)
1: The real Yuka is in a completely different place right now.
2: Meeting people I don't know. She's had her own life for these
past 8 years...
3: The Yuka who dumped me only existed for a moment in her life.
4: And she only kept living on inside me.
5: The Yuka I loved
6: is only inside my head.
7: What's wrong?
8: Nothing...
9: Looking at her again,
10: she's become much better at putting on makeup.
11: She really is like a completely different woman.
12: You OK on time?
13: Huh?
14: You're living with your girlfriend, aren't you?
15: Won't she get mad if you come home late?

181)
1: Yeah.
2: I had my own eight years, too.
3: Want to know a secret?
4: What? Something Maruyama doesn't even know?
5: Yeah.
6: About Asou Sayako, the woman you were talking about...
7: That's
8: the girl I'm living with.
9: Wh
10: Whaaaat?
11: W-wooooow!!
12: It's even a secret at work, so don't tell anyone.
13: O...oh.
14: Okay...
15: T-then I'll...

182)
1: T-th-the truth is
2: I'm going to get married.
3: In Spring, after I get married, I'm going to move with him far
away.
4: So I just wanted to apologize to you before I leave.

183)
1(2b): I'm very sorry for what I said back then. I was filled with
pain for a long time after that, and ran away from you.
2: I was a child.
3: But...
4: I want to marry without any regrets,
5: so I wanted to properly apologize.
6: I'm sorry.
7: Well...
8: Allow me to congratulate you.
9: Right up to the end...
10: what a bitch...
11: Hey, about your marriage...
12: Is it to that college student?
13: Huh?
14: ...nope, huh.

184)
1(2b): Standing here in the rain really brings back memories...
2: Wanting to apologize to me just so you can be put at ease
3: is such a self-serving way of thinking.
4: But wanting to apologize to people she hurt now that she's
happy...
5: See you.
6: Mmm.
7: There's something good in there.
8: I should just be happy that a girl I used to like is able to
think that way.
9: Ahh.
10: Yuka.
11: And it must mean that I'm not unhappy right now if I can think
that way.

185)
1: Congratulations on your marriage.
2: I'm happy for you from the bottom of my heart.
3: Thank you.
4: I hope you live a happy life too, Mucchan.
5: For some reason...
6: I really want to see Asou-san's face. Just look at it.

186)
1: Asou-san!
2: What the...
3: I told you NOT to put garlic and leeks in!
4: Why did you use this much?
5: There's no such thing as pot stickers that aren't stinky.
6: But you said you didn't want to make stinky ones!
7: But...after we eat...
8: If you've got a problem, then just don't kiss.
9: I don't mind.
10: She's
11: such a bully...

187)
1: Hyahyahya!
2(2b): It's so easy to tell which ones Asou-san folded. They're
so...unique.
3(2b): Agawa-san, the "pretty" pot stickers don't have garlic and
leeks in them, you know! You can have those ones.
4: This is the worst pot sticker party ever!
5: Ahhh!
6: I'm not eating any.
7: Rena ate them all by herself, until the next morning...
8: Now it's my turn to apologize.
9: I'll stay up for as long as I need to.
10: We're making up.

188)
1-2: vibrate
3: ...yes?

189)
1: Why did you call me out here...?
2: We promised we wouldn't meet alone...
