Azumi | I was looking for you. So you're here after all. |
Banri | It's been a while. |
Itaru | Hello. |
Azumi | Hello. Are you Settsu's friend? |
Itaru | ......Well, something like that. |
Banri | He's from the same theatre company. |
Azumi | I see. But to think you'd come visit me. What's brought this problem child here? |
Banri | No, I was reasonably put together before graduation...... |
Azumi | Before graduation, that is. |
Banri | I caused you a bunch of trouble, so I wanted to thank you too, Teach, but I never really got the opportunity. |
Azumi | I had thought you'd say bye around the time of the graduation ceremony, but...... |
Banri | Ah, it was kind of hectic back then...... |
Azumi | The girls were all crowding around asking for your button, weren't they. |
Itaru | Huh, good on you. |
Banri | Now that you mention it, something like that did happen, huh...... |
| ...... |
| Thanks for taking care of me when I was going through a rough time. |
Azumi | ――. |
Banri | Haha, you're surprised. |
Azumi | To think you'd bow......It's not like you at all. |
Banri | I'm aware I was a burden. |
| I was cheeky and didn't listen; I wasn't a cute student. |
Azumi | Haha. It's the opposite, the opposite. |
| Up until halfway through third year, you seemed bored and sullen; I couldn't help wanting to take care of you. |
| You'd just get into fights and skip class every day. |
Banri | ...... |
Azumi | But after a certain point, your look suddenly changed. Seeing that, I was relieved. |
Banri | (......When I entered the company, huh. That old man realised it.) |
Azumi | I'm glad you found something you wanted to do. |
Banri | ......Yeah. |
| (He couldn't help wanting to take care of me......huh. Hearing it again is kind of embarrassing, or rather, it's awkward......) |
| (......But it's not a bad feeling.) |
| |
Tsumugi | Thank you for showing us around the place. |
Misumi | The rabbits were cute~. Thanks for letting us touch them~! |
Azumi | I'm glad you enjoyed it. |
Itaru | We fully enjoyed it, huh. |
Banri | Right. |
Azumi | Speaking of problem children being cuter for it......Usui's quite something too. You're in the same theatre company, right? |
| Please do something about him...... |
Banri | Did something happen? |
Tsumugi | Um, what did Masumi-kun...... |
Azumi | He wrote "The Director's husband" on the career planning survey and handed it in. |
Misumi | The Director's husband? |
Tsumugi | Masumi-kun, that's...... |
Banri | He never changes. |
Itaru | Our Masumi-kun has caused you trouble...... |
Azumi | Were you related to Usui-kun? |
Banri | You were his older brother, wasn't it. |
Itaru | That setting's going to get complicated, so let's put a seal on it. |
Tsumugi | Ahaha. But well, we might be something like family. |
Misumi | We all live together~. |
Azumi | Haha, is that so. |
| Even when I asked him whether he had any secondary aspirations, he'd just say he didn't. |
Banri | Can't you just write T-U? |
Azumi | Bahaha, that's right. |
Itaru | ...... |
Tsumugi | ......Itaru-kun? |
Itaru | (It's so different to my high school days, these two kind of seem to shine a bit......) |
| ......No, it's nothing. |
Azumi | What sort of student were you, young man? |
Itaru | ......Eh, me? |
| I wasn't as troublesome a student as Banri so I don't think my teachers even remember me. |
| By your reasoning, Azumi-san, I caused so little trouble I might have conversely not been a cute student. |
Azumi | ......Is that so. |
| I said that before, but from a teacher's perspective, most students are somehow cute and endearing. |
| Rather, we're in the position of being forgotten after graduation; teachers tend to remember each and every one of their students well. |
| That's why we have sudden bouts of nostalgia sometimes too. |
Itaru | It's like that, is it. |
Azumi | It's like that. |
Banri | Why are you looking at me. I've already graduated; how long are you going to treat me like a problem brat? |
Azumi | That's right. Too bad. |
| Whether or not they've graduated, once they've taught a student, no matter what, teachers stay teachers their whole lives. |
| Haha, take that. |
Itaru | ――. |
| (No matter what, their whole lives......) |
