1. "Did you see my text?"
2. "Mmm..."
6. "You know,"
1. "See, I couldn't have warned you in advance either way!"
2. "Just a spur of the moment thing!"
3. "Hmm."
4. "So I thought I might as well pop around here first!"
5. "I'm going to see a play with a friend, but that's in the afternoon,"
6. "Why'd you come over, anyway?"
7. "But I do have something for you! I hope you like it!"
9. "Ah!"
10. "Potpourri..."
11. "It smells lovely!"
12. "And it works best if you hang it up somewhere."
13. "Oh, this is cute..."
14. "It's potpourri!"
15. "Ah... Thank you very much."
16. "It's nearly your birthday, isn't it?"
1. "Phew."
2. "No."
3. "You don't keep a cat here, do you?"
4. "And these..."
5. "Are scented candles!"
6. "Cats don't get along with them at all."
7. "Thirty six..."
8. "36, actually."
9. "You're going to be 35, aren't you, dear?"
2. "Are you two not planning on having children?"
1. "Mmm..."
2. "She has her hobbies."
3. "Is this all handmade stuff?"
4. "She's a bit, uh, flighty with them, though?"
5. "It seems like it."
6. "She spreads herself a little thin."
7. "Do you remember her ceramics phase?"
2. "Sorry to keep you waiting!"
1. "Ooh, what's this? Old friends?"
2. "Uh, you could have told me."
3. "Surprised, huh?"
4. "Huh?"
5. "Uh--"
6. "How--"
7. "I thought it'd be funny, so I didn't."
8. "Why are you here?"
9. "Wellll... Work gave me a booty call?"
1. "Ahhh... In the resturant industry."
2. "How about you, akari?"
3. "Where're you working now?"
4. "Huh. Really?"
1. Yukako, my ex-colleague.
2. And also, my ex.
1. "Oh my god..."
2. "So I just freaked out and lied to them and said I'd be livng with a friend for a bit!"
3. "Teaching me how to cook's the only thing my parents ever did for me!"
4. "Yaaaay!"
5. "I didn't know you were a cook??"
6. "This looks delicious!"
7. "Man, if only they'd taught you how to not sponge off your friends!"
8. "Yeah..."
9. "I did go pretty hard."
10. "michelin stars over here!!"
11. "Woah! This is amazing!!"
12. "C'mon, you teach me instead~"
13. "Okaaay..."
1. "Hey, akari?"
2. "What?"
3. "You're cute."
1. "Akari, are you seeing anyone right now?"
2. Man, if I'd misread the mood there, that'd be really embarrassing...
1. "Just didn't know about all that until now."
2. "You wanna be a godparent? Buy her a nice rucksack?"
3. "Hahaha."
4. "Hell no."
5. "You've always been a mess, so."
6. "Well, nah, it's cool."
7. "Sorry, babe."
1. "Makes sense."
2. "She's really cute."
3. "We only want one kid for now."
4. "Mm."
5. "Uh, do you have the right to invite me?"
6. "Ohh, yukako's actually having a barbeque at her place soon."
7. "You should come too, akari."
8. "Well, it's not even at my place!"
9. "There's somewhere nearby that's built for it, actually."
2. "It's gonna be a way for me to celebrate being back at the salon, too."
3. "It'd be really cool if you could come?"
4. "Mm."
5. My first thought was "Why the hell would I come?", but
2. "Mm."
3. "Hey..."
4. "You said my mum came over earlier, right?"
1. "I have a really direct question to ask you, if you don't mind!"
2. "Mm?"
3. "Uh... Sorry."
4. "I know I'm being very rude,"
5. "Do you want children?"
6. "Ah!"
7. "Hm!"
8. "That's a good question."
9. "But everyone's different, and I know some women don't want them, and..."
10. "But it's just that I've been thinking I might, if you would."
1. We just agreed that it would happen when it happened.
2. But it turns out that it might not be something that happens when it happens.
3. And every time we discussed it,
4. it always turned into a 'if we can't, then we can't' sort of thing.
1. "I've put some coffee on, would you like some?"
2. "Oh, sure!"
3. "Wataru, is there anyone at work you're thinking about?"
4. "Huh?"
1. "...I mean, ayano, what about you? Someone at school?"
2. "Mmn, no."
3. "Then what's the deal?"
4. "As in, into them?"
5. "And what does 'thinking about' even mean?"
6. "Why're you asking?"
7. "Not at school."
8. "Someone at that bar we went to."
