4. "You're so beautiful, haruka-chan! Something like this will suit you."
Memuatkan…Memuatkan…
1. It was obvious the dress was to make her happy, not me.
2. My grandmother said that when she gave me the dress.
3. I thought they must be right. The dress did suit me.
4. But when I saw how everyone reacted...
5. "I'll wear it every day!"
6. "Thank you, grandma!"
Memuatkan…Memuatkan…
1. And what attitude was most "Haruka."
2. And what friends, what kind of boyfriend...
3. Later, I found what grades suited me...
4. It felt good to be needed.
5. I fell in with others, and I thought they liked me.
1. Moritani misuzu.
2. "She's always alone."
3. "Does no one need her?"
4. Is she lonely?
5. Isn't she sad?
6. I don't want to end up like her.
7. If people don't need you,
9. Life has no meaning...
1. "Haruka!"
2. "I'm counting on you!"
3. "Yes, sir."
4. I brushed away my doubts, telling myself they weren't real.
1. I didn't know when, or why...
2. It lasted a few minutes.
3. And one day, time stopped.
4. But I realized something.
5. I could finally relax.
6. When time was stopped...
7. No one was watching me.
1. I realized how stressed I was, constantly worrying about what people thought.
2. And I didn't want it.
3. Maybe time stopped because I secretly wished for it.
4. I didn't ask for that.
6. Only one other person could move while time was stopped...
1. I was the one walking around in her frozen time.
2. But I had it backwards.
3. She's stopped time again.
4. "Oh!"
5. I confirmed my theory when she did it nearby.
6. Why I was the only one who could move?
7. "Spying on people mid-make out?"
8. "Wonder what she's up to today?"
9. "Huh?"
10. "Why am I pretending to be frozen?"
11. "Hm?"
12. "There she is."
13. "She's coming this way."
1. She was obsessed with me.
2. Ah, right.
3. Somehow, I'd become...
4. Special to her.
5. She's cute.
6. "What are you doing?"
7. She hung on my every word.
8. She wasn't good at relating to others, so...
1. She was like me.
2. She tried so hard to make me happy.
3. She just wanted me to like her.
4. "Don't..."
5. Humans are social creatures, after all.
6. We want to feel needed.
7. We're all like that.
8. "Cheat... or copy..."
9. "Why would you make me stop time for this?"
1. It was strange.
2. No one would be hurt.
3. We weren't going to get in trouble.
4. Telling me off and crying like a baby.
5. But there she was...
6. Hate her.
7. Even though it might make me...
8. Moritani misuzu...
9. Was just acting on behalf of her own convictions.
10. With no one around to impress...
1. I was...
2. Jealous.
3. It...
4. Was too much.
5. That was real love to her.
6. For her, being loved meant...
7. Not caring what anyone else thought.
8. I wanted to do what she wanted.
9. Her adoration comforted me.
10. She followed me around like a baby duckling.
1. When her world started expanding,
2. So I didn't mind...
3. Stop time for them.
4. To spend time with others, and...
5. I knew it was only natural for her...
6. But I couldn't help but feel disappointed.
1. I thought it might be okay to let her see...
2. Why did she have that effect on me?
3. The real me.
4. But, why?
5. Why did I want her to like me...
6. To accept me, so badly?
7. Even though no one ever would.
1. A girl who can't tell what people really want.
2. Who doesn't know what love is?
3. An empty girl like me...
4. Who could love...
5. Like me?
6. "Mura-kami-san..."
7. Who could love a girl...
8. "I love you!"
1. "Huh?"
2. "I like you..."
3. "Mura-kami-san."
4. "Just as you are."
5. "I love you."
1. "What about you?"
2. "Even if you don't feel the same way about me..."
3. "I still love you."
4. "How you feel."
5. "I want to know..."
6. "Just like I do with everyone."
7. "I was just doing whatever I thought you wanted."
8. "........."
9. "Haruka!!"
10. "Don't--"
11. "I..."
12. "I..."
1. "You're pissing me off!"
2. "Stop lying!"
3. "Say how you really feel!"
4. "Chi-ka?"
5. "Even if you think you're humoring us..."
6. "It's so freakin' annoying!"
7. "But you won't let us know you!"
8. "You always try to read everyone..."
9. "For moritani-san!"
10. "You've always had a thing..."
11. "You idiot!"
12. "Really cared about!"
13. "She's the only thing you've ever..."
1. I could never be alone...
2. Like she was.
3. Never be like moritani-san.
4. I could...
5. Seemed okay with it.
6. But she...
7. "I see."
8. "........."
9. I was the one who...
10. Started this.
1. "I wanted to spend time alone with you, moritani-san."
2. "That's why I was able to move..."
3. "In your time."
4. "I get it now."
5. "Huh?"
6. "Who..."
7. "It was me..."
1. "Loved you first..."
2. "Moritani-san."
1. "I do, really..."
2. "Truly..."
1. "Love you."
1. "Hmm."
2. "Who can solve this?"
3. "Umm!"
4. "Y-yes, sir."
5. "Mori-tani!"
6. "Yoshi-mura?"
7. "Too bad!"
8. "Ha ha ha!"
9. "Actually, I-I'm not sure."
10. "It's ...!"
11. "Uh..."
12. "........."
13. It's been months since that day.
14. I'm so embar-rassed.
1. My ability to stop time...
2. Is completely gone.
3. I can't spy on other people...
4. Or run away easily.
5. I can't spend time alone in a frozen world...
6. With murakami-san anymore, either.
7. But I can try to be part of the world...
8. Along with everyone else.
1. I'm part of the larger world now.
2. After the scene we caused...
3. People are curious about us.
4. Like everyone else, I'm someone people might...
5. Saying it's been easy for me...
6. Would be a lie.
7. Or maybe they won't care about me at all.
8. Be weirded out by.
9. Mock.
10. Envy.
11. Dislike.
12. But, no matter what...
13. I'll be okay.
