116-2 You're awful! I can't believe you did it with a girl old enough be your own daughter, Hiroyuki!
sfx: wah
116-3 Whaaaaa I can't forgive you
Hey now, just calm down
116-4 Michiko-chan, I think it's better if Onee-san doesn't know you're here
117-1 But I can't believe my brother in law cheated on her
I would have never thought...
117-2 Ah, there's nothing going on
117-3 Eh?
I thought that if the two of them broke up, you could marry him
117-4 That way we can live together
...goddammit, this was all your doing
My sister is having sister-in-law troubles too
117-5 So anyway, break up with Mashibo
Leave other people's love lives alone
118-1 Let me say this up front, your brother is not my type
118-2 Ok then, no matter who you end up marrying, I'll just come with you
Wha?
118-3 I'll be your nanny
Teach them piano. Check their homework.
118-4 A---ah

Where did that unsolvable irritation, that straight forward rage that I used to have back then, where did it go?
2-1 Living Things 119 Morning Children 135 Letter 145 Remaining Summer 155 Afterword 177
4-1 Yeah
For example, something soft and nice to the skin like cotton
I want to wrap up that
Naked shivering child
In something gentle like that
5-5 If it's ok with you, I'll share while we wait for the signal
7-6 Here You can have it
8-2 Take it
9-1 sfx: clap clap clap

Come on, hurry up and fix your makeup
9-6 Well, Nae is now taken care of too Next, it's your turn Natsuki
10-1 Unfortunately, that's not in the cards for a while
10-2 Oh that's right... I didn't know that the groom's family had a younger daughter
Michiko-chan? I met her for the first time today as well
She's pretty far apart in age from her older two siblings
10-3 They said she's in her first year in high school.
whoa
She's half the age of the groom
10-4 She seems to be a somewhat difficult child She stays home from school a lot
10-5 Onee-san will be living over there I hope she doesn't have any problems as the sister-in-law
11-1 Ok, I'm going back
11-3 Whoa
Michiko-chan
Speak of the devil

13-1 I've kept your umbrella 'til now
Natsuki-san
13-2 Eh?
13-3 You're not wet today, mm?
13-4 Blush
14-1 What an amazing coincidence I was really surprised to see you at the reception hall
14-2 No way
14-3 D-don't worry about the umbrella I gave it you after all Don't worry about it
Why now?
14-4 I had completely forgotten about it
Later
14-5 To think
14-6 She was that high school student
15-1 I just can't do bad things
15-2 What's with you? Have you done something to earn a guilty conscious?
I was just talking in generalities
15-3 It's a pretty small world
15-4 But anyway,
Onee-chan's got a pretty thick skin to be seen like that
I wouldn't have the guts to send a postcard like this
15-5 Ding-dong
15-6 Natsuki, can you get that?
Yeah
16-1 Yes?
16-2 Hello
16-3 Michiko-chan
Why?
16-4 Here
17-1 Eh?
17-2 You didn't have to give it back
17-3 It's gross to have a stranger's things in your house
17-5 Natsuki?
Who is it?
17-6 Oh, Michiko-chan
bow
18-1 I just came by to return the umbrella I borrowed from Natsuki-san
18-2 Umbrella?
18-3 Goodness, well thank you for going to all the trouble Hey Natsuki, have Michiko-chan come in
Gross
18-4 Please excuse me
I'm going to go buy some cake ...It's ok But we don't have any snacks to go with the tea
She just dropped in [handwritten]
Don't bother about me
19-1 As I figured
It's just me and the high schooler
19-2 Michiko-chan you are a high school student, right? Is today a holiday? Saturday [above bubble]
What can we possibly talk about?
I'm cutting
19-3 ...uh
Not
19-5 Natsuki, how old are you?
"Natsuki"...?
She's not using "-san" [handwritten]
20-1 Whoa You don't look it
I thought you were closer to me
20-2 What am I supposed to say to that?
20-3 Why were you crying? Back then
20-5 Get dumped by a guy?
21-1 No way? Serious?
21-2 It was just a shot in the dark
21-3 Nope Not that
21-4 Even if it was It's none of your business, Michiko-chan
21-5 Why?
"Why"? You're a stranger
21-6 I'm not a stranger
Younger sister.
22-1 You said yourself that we're strangers!
22-2 Ah That bothered you?
22-4 sfx: heh
You get flustered, mad or turn red like that so quickly
22-5 You're busy girl, Natsuki
23-1 That's why you look so young
23-2 Brat
23-3 Brat
Brat
Brat!!
24-1 Wham
24-4 That's why you look so young
Pisses me offfffff
24-5 Why the hell do I have to put up with a high school student seven years my junior saying that crap to me!?
25-3 Yeah, that's right
Ah, wait, she just got out
Natsuki
25-4 The phone
It's Nae
25-5 Onee-san?
25-6 I heard all about it!
You knew Michiko-chan from before?
26-1 It's not like I know her or anything
26-2 She was talking about you so happily About returning the umbrella she borrowed from you
26-3 It's a relief
26-4 She's got, um, a difficult temperament... should I say She doesn't usually talk or smile much
I'm at a loss To figure out how to deal with her
Doesn't smile?
27-1 Mm, well
Certainly that's more of a smirk than a smile
27-2 She almost never talks about Things at school or about her friends
So I was surprised today!
27-3 I wonder if the two of you are suited to each other
Stop it
27-4 Natsuki, I think You could be someone that Michiko-chan can really talk to
28-1 I'm goin' to bed
28-2 Coming on deck, it's Matsui...
28-5 Whoomp
28-1 ah
30-1 About 164-5 cm
Not so tall
Established as the beautiful girl
I can't draw beautiful girls very well
150 cm
Or maybe not quite that
Small and slender
Baby-faced
32-1 I saaaaw you Kariya! [her last name]
32-3 Breaking up with your boyfriend - that was a lie!
32-4 I so saw you. Sunday, walking arm in arm.
32-5 ...me?
33-1 Don't be so standoff-ish. If you went back to him, just say so
I've been worried about you
34-2 You must have seen someone else. I didn't go back I haven't see him since then
Eeh? But I saw...
34-3 Was it me? Really?
34-4 ...ah Nnn....
Well, it was from a distance
34-5 Small and slender [handwritten]
But the posture, the clothes, the attitude, even the hair...
Huh? Come to think of it, maybe the hair was a little more reddish
35-1 But come on, are you sure it wasn't you, Kariya?
No way Don't tell me that was why you broke up as well
35-4 Isn't that just a little...
35-6 Yeah. He totally sucks
36-1 I was just the same as a car he fancied or some name-brand good he was choosing
36-2 But
36-5 There, there. Cheer up! I'm cheerful
I'm not an accessory for him
36-1 Ok, I'm going home
Good job
37-2 Michiko-chan
37-3 Eh? Why are you here?
I was just in the area
37-4 Natsuki, what kind of work do you do?
Eh... Office work and stuff
Hmm
38-1 I get the feeling she's just going to make fun of whatever I say
38-2 I've been waiting
For a call from you
38-4 Wh... Whatever...
Normally, you don't call unless you have a reason, right?
Tell me your cell phone number too
38-5 I don't have one
38-6 Don't like them
39-1 Look, what're those things they throw in the Westerns? Lassos?
Aren't they like that? They can catch you no matter where you go
39-3 It's a little constraining, or...
39-6 I knew it. In some ways, there's not an adult bone in your body, Natsuki
40-1 She's smiling
I take the bus, so...
40-4 Hey, Do you know where's the school that Michiko-chan goes to?
40-5 Ummmm Well, it's a private school Pretty much just little rich girls
Eiwa Girl's school, was it?
40-6 No way! That's completely the opposite direction! Opposite?
...nothing
41-4 That's a cute dress
41-5 Today too...?
Just happened to be in the area?
Is it a problem?
42-1 Not really, but...
I'm thirsty, so let's find someplace to get tea [asking to have tea is a classic pick up line in Japan. Obviously it's not meant that way here, but nice subtext]
42-3 She's got, um, a difficult temperament... should I say
It would probably be prudent
42-4 Michiko-chan, are you going to cram school somewhere?
If I were to choose my words carefully
No, I'm not
43-1 Why?
43-2 ...we bump into each other a lot, so I thought you might have cram school around here
43-3 Do I have to have a reason to be here?
43-5 Almond orange
43-6 Blend
43-7 Have you decided?
44-3 That girl's here again Your younger sister? The two of you are close, hm?
You went home together the other night too, right?
44-5 She's waiting for you, Kariya-san. That's cute.
Nice!
You're mistaken I'm being stalked
44-6 It might be strange to take a high school girl so seriously, but...
44-7 Rear door
45-2 Somehow
She's scary
45-4 Hello, Kariya residence
Natsuki!?
46-1 Onee-san?
46-2 Aaah, Natsuki, you've got to help me Can you come over right away? Machiko-chan's...
46-3 Eh? Now? Right now?
46-4 Smash
th-thump
46-5 Please! If it's you, Natsuki, maybe... If it's you, certainly she'll...
47-3 Onee-san...
I'm sorry, Natsuki-san, at this time of night
It's ok
48-1 Where's Michiko-chan?
48-4 Flinch
49-1 Thank you for taking care of this
49-2 Shiver
49-5 Natsuki...
Okaa-san, can you run the bath?
50-2 Michiko-chan I'm putting a change of clothes here, ok? Sorry, but it's just some of mine
50-4 Michiko-chan?
50-5 I'm coming in
50-6 We're both girls, so it's ok, right?
50-7 Machi...
51-1 Right here
There's a storm
51-2 That inhabits me
51-3 It's raging even now Blowing me apart
Why
52-1 Am I Weird? Abnormal?
52-2 I'm not normal
52-3 I can't stop the storm
55-1 Morning
55-3 Aren't you hungry? I've only got simple-to-make stuff, though
55-4 I thought we could eat breakfast together But, it's already noon
56-3 Michiko-chan
56-5 Michiko-chan, you've got pretty large breasts, huh? Even though your so thin. That's nice
56-6 How about yours?
Eh?
56-7 Petite
57-1 Petite?
57-2 Flat-chested
57-3 You're horrible!
Owowow
58-2 Sometimes I'm drowned in loneliness
58-3 Even with two people... There are times when you are lonely all the more
59-1 So that's why you were crying, Natsuki
59-2 Eh? Well
59-3 That was because you glared at me with that scary face
59-4 Really! No, Really!
59-5 That asshole...
If I found his heart forgotten in the middle of the Sahara I wouldn't waste a single drop of water on it
59-6 But anyway
At that time
60-1 You need to at least acknowledge people! At first I didn't think you had any attractiveness at all
60-2 But, while I was looking at this face of a high school girl who did'nt bother to hide her displeasure I became nostalgic It became painful
60-4 I bet I used to have that kind of expression back then
Like I always has this rage stored up deep inside my body
Back then That unsolvable irritation, that straight forward rage
