<0001>
// May 5, the end of the holidays.
<0002> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Oh crap!"
<0003>
// I'm running.
<0004>
// It's already eleven o'clock.
<0005>
// My appointment with Fujibayashi is also eleven o'clock.
<0006>
// I'm late!
<0007>
// I'm running quite desperately here.
<0008>
// I don't care about being late at school but, I definitely don't want to be late when it comes to dates.
<0009>
// Furthermore, this is our second date and it will be a date with just the two of us for the first time.
<0010>
// The sound of the contents of the paper bag rustling as I run.
<0011>
// I have the tarot cards Kyou gave me last Saturday.
<0012>
// And in my pocket is the pendant I bought yesterday--...
<0013>
// Wha, it's not here!
<0014>
// Crap! I forgot it!
<0015>
// I don't have time to go back for it! Damn it!
<0016>
// The only thing I'm bringing are the tarot cards now!
<0017>
// And then, in front of the station.
<0018>
// The tables have turned for this date; Fujibayashi's waiting for me this time, leaning by the post.
<0019>
// She looks quite down, staring at the ground.
<0020>
// I'm in an atmosphere where even letting out a small voice is hard.
<0021> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Sorry I'm late!"
<0022> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "!!"
<0023>
// Fujibayashi vigorously lifts her head, noticing me.
<0024>
// And then, swish... her eyes become teary.
<0025> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Ah..."
<0026>
// Oh no... did I make her wait that long?!
<0027> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I'm... really sorry--..."
<0028> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "I... I'm so glad..."
<0029> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Eh?"
<0030>
// An unexpectedly calm response.
<0031>
// I lean over my head, looking at Fujibayashi.
<0032> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "I... thought I had the wrong time..."
<0033> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Or maybe, somehow... something happened to you on the way, \m{A}-kun..."
<0034> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "I was really worried... and anxious..."
<0035> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "I'm glad it was... nothing like that..."
<0036>
// She says that with a thin voice, her shoulders trembling.
<0037> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No, I was really late this time. I'm sorry."
<0038> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "No, it's okay... I made you wait the last time, \m{A}-kun..."
<0039> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That time I came early, you were on time though."
<0040> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Even then, I made you wait... today, I'm the one waiting."
<0041> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "R-really...?"
<0042> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It was fun thinking about a lot of things while waiting."
<0043> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "And... onee-chan told me as well."
<0044> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "That the time where I will wait on a date has began."
<0045> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Really...? Even then, being late is being late, so I apologize."
<0046> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "No, don't worry at all."
<0047>
// Fujibayashi gives a sweet smile as she says that.
<0048> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Huh...?"
<0049> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hm? What is it?"
<0050> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Did you buy something?"
<0051> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No? Why?"
<0052> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "You're holding a paper bag in your hand."
<0053> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Ah... this is..."
<0054>
// Looking at the paper bag, I present it to Fujibayashi.
<0055> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "... eh...?"
<0056>
// Fujibayashi makes a strange face, looking at me.
<0057> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Um... what... is this...?"
<0058> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "A present for you."
<0059> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "........."
<0060>
// Hearing my words, she stares at the paper bag like an idiot for a while.
<0061> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "........."
<0062>
// She's stares more...
<0063> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "........."
<0064>
// and a bit more...
<0065> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "........."
<0066>
// and much more...
<0067> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "........."
<0068>
// After that, her head makes a creaking sound just like a spring that's used in some toys as she clumsily looks my way... and then...
<0069>
// Pop! Her face blushes red.
<0070> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Eh... eh? Ehh???"
<0071> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "A... a present... for me?"
<0072> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "You have... one... for me... \m{A}-kun...?"
<0073> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah."
<0074> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah... wawa... no way... I didn't get anything for you..."
<0075> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Nah, it's all right."
<0076> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "B-but... but..."
<0077> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "My hand's gonna feel numb soon, so I'd like it if you could take it?"
<0078>
// She immediately brings out her trembling hand.
<0079> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah... wawa... I'm sorry."
<0080>
// In haste, she grabs the paper bag.
<0081>
// With a happy face, she looks carefully at the bag she's holding with both hands.
<0082> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah... u-umm... well... thank you very much!"
<0083> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You don't really have to thank me."
<0084>
// Besides, I didn't buy that.
<0085>
// Bowing down your head like that makes me feel guilty.
<0086> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "No, not at all, this is the first thing \m{A}-kun has gotten for me, so."
<0087> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It's the most important to me."
<0088>
// She embraces the paper bag, burrying her head over it.
<0089>
// After that, she looks at the paper bag with glittering eyes, just like a kid.
<0090> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Um... is it okay... for me to look inside...?"
<0091> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah."
<0092>
// Oh yeah, that's right, I didn't look in there either.
<0093>
// What are tarot cards, really...?
<0094>
// I dunno if these cards mean anything like a "ziggurat" or the "world" or anything.
<0095>
// Ruffle, ruffle, ruffle...
<0096> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Wah..."
<0097> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hmm?"
<0098>
// The voice of Fujibayashi as she pulls out the tarot cards from the paper bag.
<0099>
// Her eyes were filled with surprise and joy.
<0100> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "I... is it okay... for me to have this...?"
<0101>
// In her hand was a wooden box with the tarot cards inside.
<0102>
// Looking at it now, it's made quite well.
<0103> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, that one is for you."
<0104> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Thank you for... such an expensive thing!"
<0105>
// Fujibayashi bows her head heavily again.
<0106>
// Was it really that expensive?
<0107>
// That Kyou's... quite the generous one...
<0108> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Umm... I... I would like you to be the first one I read the fortune using these tarot cards, \m{A}-kun..."
<0109> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hmmm? I don't mind but... aren't these the cards that you usually spread on a table?"
<0110> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Yes, they are usually spread on a table, but it's also possible to predict your future by pulling out a single card."
<0111>
// Fujibayashi says that with a gleeful expression.
<0112> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Spread...?"
<0113> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "The cards can be arranged in a V pattern, a hexagram, or even a Celtic cross."
<0114> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Each of the cards' positions indicates a person's future, past, nature, keyword, or other things."
<0115> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Spreading the cards is the Western style of fortune telling... it's a fortune telling that tells you a lot of things."
<0116> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "In regards to that, selecting a single card to predict a particular fortune is Oriental style."
<0117> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It's really interesting, isn't it?"
<0118>
// As expected of someone who's a fan of fortune-telling... she's explains one by one, the card's function, as if it's a lively fish she caught somewhere.
<0119>
// I never thought that she'd be this talkative.
<0120> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "How was that? Did you understand?"
<0121> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well... not much..."
<0122> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It's all right, don't worry. I'll take care of everything; all you have to do is pick a card out, \m{A}-kun."
<0123>
// Fujibayashi is leading me...
<0124>
// This behavior of her is really rare.
<0125>
// I'm blown away by Fujibayashi's unusual behaviour... she opens the wooden case and removes the plastic seal of the cards.
<0126> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Let's try the Major Arcana."
<0127>
// She says so and takes out a number of cards out of the deck, as if she's having fun.
<0128> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Major Arcana...?"
<0129> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It involves 22 cards that would let us know the world around us."
<0130> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "A single card alone carries a strong symbolism."
<0131> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It's all right to carry one like a charm because of the strong symbolism it holds."
<0132> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah..."
<0133>
// She didn't stop at my half-hearted reply, then performs well with the 22 cards.
<0134>
// She's doing it differently compared to the playing cards.
<0135>
// But... what the hell are we doing in the middle of the street...
<0136>
// A few surrounding people seem to be noticing us.
<0137>
// In Fujibayashi's case, she didn't mind at all as she happily works with the cards.
<0138>
// And then...
<0139> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Please pick one."
<0140>
// She presents the cards to me in a fan-shaped form, stretching out her arms with a smile.
<0141>
// Fujibayashi's fortune-telling, huh...
<0142>
// The times when it was with the playing cards it was quite inaccurate, but this time it'd be fairly new.
<0143>
// It's suitable for fortune-telling... no, they were meant for fortune-telling.
<0144>
// If so--...
<0145>
// .........
<0146>
// This might be even worse...
<0147> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "\m{A}-kun...?"
<0148> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Y-yeah, just one then."
<0149>
// I prepare myself, pulling out a card.
<0150>
// I look at the card I picked, thinking what to do...
<0151> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "This is Arcana 0, The Fool."
<0152> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0153>
// A very bad and troubling card...
<0154> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "The Fool basically means, when you gain everything, it will all return to whence it came."
<0155> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "It's about a great magician whose greed became too great."
<0156>
// A great magician that was called a fool...
<0157>
// I dunno how great she really is, but certainly this card has some deep meaning in it...
<0158> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "... in short?"
<0159> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Umm, it means the future isn't really going to change."
<0160> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Which means... the way things are will continue to go on... right?"
<0161> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Uh... um... well..."
<0162>
// Fujibayashi flutters her eyes at me, hesitating to say anything. I wonder if she understands what I said?
<0163>
// When I say the way things are, I'm talking about how we're going out...
<0164> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "So it means, this is a good card?."
<0165> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Y-yes, that's what it means!"
<0166>
// Fujibayashi nods her head, blushing.
<0167> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Then, let's get off on a good start for now with our date, shall we?"
<0168> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah, y-yes. If you will."
<0169>
// Fujibayashi deeply bows her head as I smile, giving her my hand.
<0170> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Eh...?"
<0171>
// She mysteriously looks at my hand.
<0172> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You want to hold hands?"
<0173> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It will look like we're on a date."
<0174> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah... uu... umm... well..."
<0175>
// She timidly reaches out her hand as she looks at me.
<0176>
// I grab hold of her hand the moment her fingertip touches my palm... as if it were a reward.
<0177> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah, wawa..."
<0178> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Let's go. First off is lunch."
<0179> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "O... okay..."
<0180>
// Fujibayashi nods, her face reddening and hanging down.
<0181>
// After that, we ate lunch and walked around a lot of places.
<0182>
// We went to the bookstore and read the newest manga...
<0183>
// Just the two of us at the clothes shop, picking out clothes for each other...
<0184>
// And we talked about the accessories while at the general store.
<0185>
// Before long, our shadows began to stretch on the road.
<0186>
// Our legs were damn tired from running all over the place.
<0187> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Fujibayashi, you have any place you'd like to go to?"
<0188> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Eh... um... well..."
<0189>
// She looks around in a restless way, and puts a finger to her mouth, thinking to herself.
<0190>
// And then she looks at me.
<0191> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Uh... umm... well... if I'm with... you, \m{A}-kun... anywhere's fine..."
<0192>
// And finally, she hangs her head, blushing while saying that.
<0193>
// Her hand tightens around mine.
<0194>
// We took a few slow steps.
<0195>
// Hey... isn't that cute...
<0196>
// Anywhere's fine as long as I'm with her, huh...
<0197>
// Anywhere's fine...?
<0198>
// ... anywhere's fine...
<0199>
// .........
<0200>
// Woah! I'm starting to get a little excited there!
<0201> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "\m{A}-kun...?"
<0202> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "N-n-no, it's nothing. It's better you don't worry about it."
<0203> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "?"
<0204>
// But, even for this one day today, we've run out of good places to go to.
<0205>
// After all, we don't really have any place we want to go to.
<0206>
// That's why for now we're just walking, holding hands.
<0207>
// We walked slowly in order to lengthen the short amount of time we have together.
<0208>
// And, that's how I answer as well...
<0209>
// As time flows unrestrained...
<0210>
// Closing my eyes, I could feel the warmth near me... having nothing to say gives me a sense of security.
<0211>
// I feel a bit of a tug on my arm.
<0212> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "...?"
<0213>
// I notice Fujibayashi's looking off somewhere.
<0214>
// I follow her glance as well.
<0215>
// Game center...?
<0216> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Ah... I'm sorry."
<0217> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You want to go?"
<0218> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Umm... t... that's not what I had in mind..."
<0219>
// The game center... certainly, we've been there once...
<0220> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Maybe you wanna try the horoscope thing?"
<0221> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Uu... eh... ah... huh...? Why... do you know that...?"
<0222>
// Fujibayashi looks at me in deep awe.
<0223> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well... somehow, I kind of felt that."
<0224> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "You... somehow...?"
<0225> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Somehow... when you understand just by thinking about it... it makes me a bit happy..."
<0226>
// Fujibayashi smiles embarrassingly, saying that while looking at me.
<0227> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "So you wanna try the fortune-telling then?"
<0228> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Eh... um... if you want to... umm... try, \m{A}-kun..."
<0229>
// Fujibayashi humbly says and smiles at me.
<0230>
// And then, keeping our hands like that, we head to the game center.
<0231>
// The mysteriously roomy space separated by the vinyl curtain.
<0232>
// The faint BGM with the image of space.
<0233>
// The feeling of being trapped and isolated in a world outside.
<0234>
// And in there, just the two of us...
<0235>
// Before, I didn't really care like this, but today I'm certainly interested.
<0236>
// Roll... roll, roll... plunk.
<0237>
// Roll... plunk.
<0238>
// Roll... roll... roll, roll... plunk.
<0239>
// Fujibayashi puts in her information with a serious look.
<0240>
// ... That's right... back then, we were just friends... well... it's more like we just knew each other.
<0241>
// But now...
<0242> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "Uh... umm... \m{A}-kun...?"
<0243> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Eh...? Ah, what is it?"
<0244> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "W-which should we pick this time...?"
<0245> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Which...?"
<0246>
// Looking at the monitor, the screen had changed from the information input screen to the relationship screen.
<0247> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Ah... hmm, I guess..."
<0248>
// Friends
<0249>
// Lovers
<0250>
// Married
<0251> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I guess we'll go for frie--..."」
<0252> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "........."
<0253>
// She gives a rare look at the cursor on the screen.
<0254> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "...--this one."
<0255>
// I move the swishing cursor over to "Lovers".
<0256>
// Fujibayashi breathes a sigh of relief beside me.
<0257> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Not really much of a riddle there."
<0258>
// I immediately move the cursor to "Lovers".
<0259>
// I give a quick glance over to my side, noticing Fujibayashi is looking at the screen, embarrassed.
<0260> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "If it's about fortune-telling, it's about the future, so..."
<0261>
// I slowly move the cursor towards "Married".
<0262>
// Pop! I hear a sudden sound to my side.
<0263>
// Then warm moist drifts about.
<0264>
// As I look to my side... Fujibayashi seems to be boiling...
<0265>
// I immediately move the cursor to "Lovers" and press the confirm button.
<0266>
// Kerplunk!
<0267>
// With the sound effects' echoing, the menu letters disappear, leaving the image with only the stars.
<0268> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well, we should probably put our hands on top of the crystal now."
<0269>
// I glance at Fujibayashi.
<0270>
// Fujibayashi returns one back as well.
<0271>
// But she soon places her hand on top of my own.
<0272>
// The soft and warm feeling of her hand wrapping around the back of mine.
<0273>
// And then, the same animation on the display we saw before.
<0274>
// The planets revolving around the sun in the middle.
<0275>
// With that, a change to a mysterious BGM.
<0276>
// The planets spinning around scatters left and right and blinks several times.
<0277>
// The crystal in our hands begins to twinkle.
<0278>
// Not long after, all the planets disappear, and the only one left is the sun.
<0279>
// As the sun accelerates, it spreads out around the frame of the monitor, and like that, it vanishes to a pure white color...
<0280>
// The screen changes to that of shooting stars.
<0281>
// Our names also float up amongst them.
<0282>
// and it's written in printed characters...
<0283>
// It's the results.
<0284> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hmm... well..."
<0285>
// Fujibayashi and I look closely at the same time.
<0286>
// Our faces are close together but, we didn't care about that at all as we stare at the monitor.
<0287>
// ... Maybe I'm paying too much attention...?
<0288>
// "This week, the two of you will deal with a small problem."
<0289>
// "As someone who wants to think seriously about everything, your partner might get tired of every good remedy you think about."
<0290>
// "However, you should try to avoid forcing your opinion."
<0291>
// "You should realize many things if you put yourself on your partner's position."
<0292>
// "You should try to be bold. If given a chance to talk, avoid using the phone, instead do it in person."
<0293>
// "Your lucky items are: umbrella, chocolate."
<0294>
// "Your lucky color is: blue."
<0295> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "... A complicated result, huh."
<0296> \{Ryou} ""
// \{Ryou} "I... guess so."
<0297>
// We stare at the screen as the letters slowly fade out.
<0298>
// At the same time, the cabinet buzzes... the results are being printed out.
<0299>
// Both Fujibayashi and I reach for it at the same time.
<0300>

<0304>
// Her face is in front of me.
<0305>
// Her perplexed eyes and reddened face.

// In that state, my eyes are concentrated towards her small lips.

<0316>
// Maybe she meant... something like this?
<0317>
// Her face is getting closer.
<0318>
// The mysterious BGM continues to play on...
<0319>
// Both of us are shut in a small room, separated from the outside by a curtain...
<0320>
// I suddenly place my hand on Fujibayashi's shoulder.

<0330>
// This isn't practice...
<0331>
// My hand's feeling stiff.
<0332>
// Her shoulder's... thin and soft...
<0333>
// Her warmth is passing through her clothes.
<0334> \{\m{B}} ""

<0338>
// That's my cue...
<0339>
// It's the point of no return now, isn't it...
<0340>
// I, too, close my eyes slowly and come closer to her face...
<0341>
// It's like the sounds around us disappear.

<0375>
// Fujibayashi cried, both happy and embarrassed.
<0376>
// I felt calm, watching her like that.

// The joy of being needed by someone...
<0378>
// The happiness of being able to give joy to someone...
<0379>
// It seems trivial... but it's really important...
<0380>
// It feels like the future will shine for things to come.

<0385>
// All at once, my high spirits had plummeted.
<0386>
// I take my feeble hand away from Fujibayashi's thin shoulder.
<0387>
// And instead give her the fortune-telling results that just printed out.

// The pendant I bought yesterday...
<0412>
// I think that I might have missed it, and then forgot about it and left it behind...
<0413>
// ... well... whatever, I can give it to her anytime.
<0414>
// I might be spoiling her too much if I give her two things at the same time.
<0415>
// Giving her the tarot cards for today is good enough.
<0416>
// I should be thanking Kyou in some way.
<0417>
// She's given me a bit of time.
<0418>
// I put the pendant in my school bag, so I can give it to her at any time.

<0426>
// But well... I've been properly coming to school early recently.
<0427>
// I have a bad feeling...
