November
-Whoa, the wind is strong. -It's freezing.
I guess autumn's here.
Hey, did you hear?
Hear what?
I guess it's the season for warm drinks now.
Autumn is here.
Seasons change.
Leaving me behind.
There she is. Ms. Yasuraoka.
You were absent when we were picking roles for the school festival.
I hope you don't mind being a stagehand.
Stage--? What do I need to do?
Don't worry about it. Just leave all the heavy lifting to the band club.
You only have to do easy work, like watching over the schedule and stuff.
Please.
That's why I'm telling you that you should go.
All right.
I'll do it.
Yay, now everyone has a job!
Thank you, Ms. Yasuraoka.
It's already cold.
Mugi.
Brother said they're having the wedding over spring break.
He came and told me himself in person.
Hana.
Congratulations.
We talked a bit on our way home.
I guess it didn't work out for Mugi.
Serves him right.
Are you surprised it's so sudden?
Not at all.
Why not?
Because it was really obvious...
...that you were in love with Ms. Minagawa.
Anyway, you stopped wearing glasses.
I broke my glasses, so I just....
She asked you to wear contacts, didn't she?
How did you know?
It's so obvious. I preferred the glasses, though.
Because....
The way he looks now...
...reminds me of his old self.
And it kind of hurts.
Will you come to the wedding?
Hana?
I'll be there.
Of course.
Thank you.
School Festival
This way, please.
Would you like some tea?
Okay, so this is our final schedule.
I'm sure you're all tired from all the prepping, but let's all do our best.
Hey, her eyes are glazed over.
She was all about building this stage after all.
You two, Male Students A and B.
If you're late, I'm throwing you in the bonfire.
I'm just glad things came together.
Hey.
My date is here.
So you're going to go with your boyfriend?
Don't be late.
What? Do you not have time?
No, it's fine.
I'm just a little tired.
Then do you want to rest somewhere?
What? No way.
Who do I want to be with?
I quietly locked away the few names that popped into my head.
-Where do you want to start? -Let's eat something first.
Agreed.
I've got time before they need me back at the stage.
Come on in.
We're doing a fashion show.
Please, check us out.
We have lots of great outfits.
Hurry, before it ends.
I've loved Mugi much longer, and way more honestly.
So I feel refreshed.
You'll see once you do something for yourself.
Thank you.
Your dress was great, Ms. Kamomebata.
Really?
It was so detailed. Did you really do everything yourself?
Yeah.
Whoa!
Wait, do you make all your outfits too?
I do.
Really? I thought so. I've always wanted to ask you.
Could you teach me how you make them sometime, Noriko?
Moca....
-Could you show me too, Noriko? -It's Moca.
I....
I still....
You're late! Yasuraoka.
Hurry up and help everyone.
Oh, crap.
Where does this go?
We're not gonna make it.
Hurry up and move.
Ms. Yasuraoka, could you bring me the cord?
Okay.
Sorry, Ms. Yasuraoka, can you help me with the flyers?
Okay.
Yasuraoka, take that equipment to the back.
Which one?
That one! Hurry!
Okay.
Excuse me.
Nobody's here.
I'm so tired.
It feels nice to be alone.
You can see things clearer when you're alone.
That's right.
I was alone to begin with after all.
Are you scared of being alone?
Not anymore.
I was alone to begin with. And everyone's alone.
Then I guess this is meaningless too.
It is meaningless....
I see...
Then why did we make our promise that day?
Why...?
Did I fell asleep?
My shoulder....
Why...?
Why did we ever meet?
March
All right, volunteers, stay behind after the graduation ceremony.
I can't reach that high.
What's with all this heavy work just to celebrate our teachers' wedding?
Stop talking and move. You're part of the action committee.
Just return the tools we don't need anymore to the back.
What, again?
Just hurry up and do it!
Yes.
Ms. Yasuraoka, let me help.
Thank you, um....
I'm Moriyama. We're in the same class, starting this year.
Oh, yeah.
Ms. Yasuraoka, we should really be putting these away.
Sorry.
Thank you for helping.
You really saved me.
Ms. Yasuraoka.
How have things been between you and Awaya?
I haven't seen you two together lately that much.
Um, Ms. Yasuraoka.
If you're interested, maybe you'd like to....
All right, that's enough.
Hanabi is mine.
Now kindly back off.
What?
Let's go.
I'm sorry.
But....
Thank you very much.
Ecchan.
Don't worry, I was just joking back there.
Why did you do that?
You still want your space, don't you?
Ecchan....
-Thank you.... -Why are you crying?
You're so nice....
You're so nice, Ecchan.
Okay, okay, just blow your nose for me already.
I....
I didn't think you'd ever talk to me again.
I wouldn't do that. I'm sorry.
Sorry it took so long.
You cut your hair.
Two years ago
You're from the exam.
You didn't braid your hair today.
Do you mind if I touch your hair?
Wow, your hair is amazing. You made the right choice letting it down.
I felt forgiven then for some reason.
Like it was my first breath.
The world took me in.
And....
Ecchan.
This hair style looks nice on you too.
I feel so refreshed.
Congratulations!
This is pretty nice.
Oh, I'm so embarrassed.
We all signed a card.
Thank you.
Ms. Yasuraoka.
You're going to their wedding, aren't you?
I'm so jealous. I've never been to a wedding before.
It's my first one too.
Oh, that's the dream.
Being able to spend the rest of your life with the person you love.
The dream?
It's the bouquet toss.
Toss?
You're not throwing it.
Take it.
Why me?
-Just take it. -Fine, okay.
Ms. Akane?
Next time...
...make sure he doesn't get stolen.
That's....
That's not your concern.
It turns out, the promise we made that day...
...and the days we spent together...
...had no meaning in the end.
In the beginning, I was just lonely.
I just wanted to be touched.
Four months ago
I fell in love with your warmth.
Hanabi....
The contract we made back in the day.
Now that we've both lost our loves....
Does that mean our contract is voided?
Or are we able to make a new contract....
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize, stupid.
Just so you know...
...Ms. Akane changed.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm telling you.
Yeah, I know.
Brother chose her in the end after all.
I was wrong.
I loved Brother enough to accept that.
I'm okay now.
I can put it into words now.
You did good too, Mugi.
You too.
I felt that for the first time...
...we avoided physical comfort...
...and tried using our words instead.
We've never done that before.
We talked a lot.
About everything.
Making up for the lost time.
Oh, what a long first love that was.
They say your first love never comes true.
Despite being autumn...
...the sunlight is warm.
Shining through the dust...
...and still air.
It smells of old wood...
...and time is both everlasting and fleeting.
I quietly breathe in...
...and made a decision.
I....
I'm glad I met you, Mugi.
We are looking for real love.
We know it can't be easily found.
No matter how hard we pray...
...it may be something we will never have.
We may get hurt even worse next time.
It could make us feel more isolated.
But...
...we'll continue to seek it.
-I don't want to-- -Be apart.
I don't want--
To let go anymore.
I want to hold you.
I don't want things to end.
Don't let me go.
I don't want it to end.
-But goodbye. -But goodbye.
We don't need to be saved just yet.
We're looking for real love.
That's why we continue to live on.
Let's escape from the solar system
And cross it in parallel lines
Stretching out in parallel lines
Like our shadows
A Story of Two
