I wasn't going to cry anymore... Even if I can't speak to you now, I can convey my warm feelings... But I want someone to be by my side...!! Real Love in Fourteen Hoshii no wa Hitotsu Dake (I Only Want for One Thing) Chapter Twelve by Takase Ryou pg 3 Rinka: % It was just like a dream. % We were on a date, just like a real couple. % A last time, for my last memory of you. pg 4 Rinka: % School started... % And the Yano that I always see in the classroom is... Yano: Time for testing... Put away everything except something to write with... Rinka: % "Yano-sensei". % Only a teacher in charge... pg 5 Mana: What? So? So? What happened? Girl: We broke up... Girl: That's too bad...I just got dumped. But I still love him though... Mana: Stupid! Forget about him, he was just a summer boyfriend! You'll fall in love again soon! Girl: I guess... pg 6 Mana: Hey, Rinka, don't you think so? Rinka: ...I don't think she can ever really forget about him. It's not that I think she really has to keep running after him, but I think it's okay to just be in love, I guess. Even if it's only within your own feelings. Girl: That...could be! Girl: Hey, hey, what's with you, Rinka? pg 7 Girl: Before, Rinka, you always seemed uninterested and didn't care about this kind of talk... And now you seem so experienced... Girl: (Idiot!) That's because of Tetsuta an- Mana: Everyone made a huge fuss over that, when it happened... Sorry, Rinka. Rinka: Oh, it was my fault though... Mana: Wait... (Look.) I wonder if he heard us... But he was watching you the whole time... pg 8 Mana: I wonder if Tetsuta still loves you, Rinka? Rinka: Hey... Rinka: % ...nobody else knows. % That the one I was in love with, was Yano. % And that I was dumped... % ...I'm sure, this way... % I can let it pass by, with it seeming that nothing ever % happened... % Until graduation. Mana: Rinka, can you do the journal for me? (Sorry!) Rinka: Okay! pg 9 Rinka: Ah, sorr- Tetsuta: If you want the journal, it's right here. I have class duty, too. ...oh, that's right... Rinka: ... Tetsuta: What did you do during summer vacation? Rinka: Mm, stuff... Tetsuta: What's that? I was busy with club the whole time, I didn't have any free time at all. Rinka: Poor thing! Rinka: % Ah... % I'm... % ...talking to Tetsuta normally... Tetsuta: And I wanted to go to an amusement park or something, and ride the jet coaster... Rinka: Oh, that sounds fun... pg 10 Tetsuta: Then let's go together sometime. ...with everyone else. Rinka: Oh... Sure. Rinka: % This way... % It seems like time can change so many things... pg 11 Rinka: I'm home! Kiriko: Welcome back, Rinka! Rinka: Oneechan? Kiriko: Mama went out today, so I'm expected to make dinner... Rinka: Oh, I'll help too! pg 12 Kiriko: What, don't you trust me? Rinka: (No way!) Kiriko: Oh, there's that pasta shop in front of the train station... They had this delicious creamed bean spaghetti... Rinka: Oh, you're lucky! Take me next time, I want to eat another kind. Kiriko: Rinka, that isn't an appetizer! Only a taste! Rinka: Geez... Rinka: % Wonderful. % This is wonderful. Kiriko: $ Please...don't take him...! Rinka: % Because I've kept my promise to you... pg 13 Rinka: % For that one time... % Forgive me, okay? % Because that was really the last time... Kiriko: Hm, you have to grade tests? Oh, forget about them! Stay on a little more... Please! Oh, right, from before... Rinka: % This is... % ...wonderful, isn't it? Yano: Then, bye. pg 14 Name: Hikawa Rinka Rinka: $ Merry Christmas. pg 15 Mana: Augh, don't look at mine! Research class prints?! Too much slang?! I only used a little bit~~~~ Yano: E class has theirs... These are yours, from B class. Mana: It's pretty rare for people to be going into the reference room... Rinka: Mm... Girl: Yano-sensei! We helped you, so reward us somehow! Yano: How about this unused drill? (Perfect...) Girl: (Don't want it!) Geez, I didn't mean like THAT!! (Kyahaha...) Don't tease us like that! pg 16 Rinka: % That girl from B class... % I wonder if she's in love with Yano... Girl: Yano-sensei! Yano: (What?) Rinka: % He really is...everyone's teacher... pg 17 Girl: Geh, I don't get it! What's this mean, "Makura Nosoushi"? Yano: It's not hard. Just by thinking or feelings or writing a lot about things... You know what it is you like, and what you don't...like that. Girl: Oh... So it's like "stuff you like" in slang. Spring at daybreak, summer at night... Darkness where fireflies flutter... Yano: The stars are Pleiades... And the flowers on trees... Probably the paulownia flowers...or pear blossoms... (ed: Eek. This entire thing is *so* full of symbolism... "Pleiades" is said as "Subaru". Before, Kiriko has said that "Takashi" in Yano's name is said as Takashi, but written as "Subaru". The flowers in Yano's trees are "Kiri" and "Nashi"...they're both the kanji in Kiriko (she's the paulownia) and Rinka's (pear) names. ^_^) pg 18 Girl: Pear blossoms? What's that? I've never seen them, what are they like? Yano: It's a very cute flower. Pale and light... I love it. pg 19 Girl: Wow... But this really is hard... Yano: Study harder. Girl: (Aww...) Mana: Yano-sen! If we're done, I'm leaving now. Yano: Sure, thank you. Rinka: Aww, my hands are all black now... Handerchief, handkerchief... Mana: Oh, Rinka. You dropped something. Rinka: Huh... Ah! pg 20 Yano: ...you should put this in your wallet or something. Mana: What, it was money? pg 21 pg 22 Girls: Yano-sensei! We're done, too! Rinka: % Yano... Boy: Good job! Don't skip the morning practice! Tetsuta: Rin- pg 23 Girl: (Have a chocolate!) Girl: (Oh, I like this...) Guy: (Ahaha...wait up!) Tetsuta: Yano-sen? I brought the prints... pg 24 Yano: Thank you, Matsuura. ...can I speak with you for a minute? Tetsuta: Hm? Yano: It's not anything good... What's wrong? The first test and the tests at the end of last term... I don't know if your club is getting too hard for you, but you really need to have a good grade this time... Good luck on the next test. Tetsuta: ...I'm not really feeling well now. pg 25 Tetsuta: Yano-sen, you know...how I loved Rinka. You saw us so many times... After that, we started going out... But she dumped me, at the beginning of the first term. ...she actually always had another person she loved. And I didn't know anything about it... I was that stupid to not realize- that's even worse than being dumped. But...it doesn't seem like her relationship with that guy is going too well. Somehow, her smile seems fake now... Yano: ...you've been watching her carefully. pg 26 Tetsuta: Because I still love her. The person Rinka's in love with...I won't forgive him... Not after he's made Rinka have that expression... ...hey. I saw it, on the field trip when you were together with Rinka. Ever since then... I didn't think it could be true, but... pg 27 Tetsuta: Could the person Rinka loves... ...be Yano-sen...? ...isn't that it? pg 28 Tetsuta: Yano, you knew, too? ...so that's it... DON'T STAY QUIET! If it's not true, say something!! Yano: ... Tetsuta: ...! pg 29 Tetsuta: ...SAY IT! SAY SOMETHING!! Yano... SAY SOMETHING!! pg 30 Yano: Matsuura- Man: Wh... pg 31 Man: What...are you doing, Yano-sensei?! Are...you all right...?! pg 32 Speaker: All teachers, report to the conference room. Repeat, all... Teacher: What? An emergency meeting? Boy: Fifth period is free study now! (Wow!) Huh, but where's Tetsuta...? Girl: It seems like there was some kind of violent act on campus... Girl: No way! What's the punishment for that? Sign: Conference Room Teacher: WHAT is the meaning of this?! What caused a student to get so badly hurt?! Yano-sensei?! pg 33 Yano: ...I'll take the responsibility. Teacher: Silence! Yano-sensei is not coming. Girl: Huh? Why? Did he cut class? Teacher: Yano-sensei is... ...is facing punishment for being unprofessional. Rinka: % Yano...?!
