Azuma’s Mother Will you really be okay by yourself? I think I’ll stay after all— Azuma You worry too much. I’ll be fine, so go and have fun. Azuma’s Father We’ll return home as soon as possible. Azuma’s Brother I’ll get you souvenirs. Azuma Okay. Have a safe trip. Azuma’s Mother I’m off. Azuma’s Father I’m off. Azuma’s Brother I’m off. ――Goodbye, Azuma. Azuma (No, don’t go— No) Don’t leave me alone—! Azuma ―― …*huff, huff* Not again… …I hate mornings after all. (What time is it…?) (Oh? I got a LIME…) Tasuku Takato Want to go for a drive? Azuma Tasuku…? (It’s from last night… I didn’t notice at all.) Azuma Sorry. I saw your message just now. Azuma We can go for a drive, but this time without the scripts. Azuma ? That’s a quick reply… He must be on an early morning run. Tasuku Takato Where are you? Azuma … Azuma It’s a secret. I’ll head back home now. ??? —Oh? Good morning. Azuma Good morning, Asajo-san. Asajo Looks like you’ve been coming here a lot recently. Azuma —Yes, I guess so. Asajo You said that the dorm was comfortable to live in though. Azuma I just wanted to do some thinking. Asajo Is that so…? If you’re going to be coming home sometimes then I’ll leave the room as it is, but… What do you think, Azuma-kun? Azuma …Please let me think about it a little more. Azuma … Tasuku Welcome back. Azuma Tasuku…? I didn’t think you’d come pick me up. Tasuku I was just thinking of going for a run, so. Azuma You’re not wearing a jersey though? Tasuku Ah… Azuma I’m surprised you knew I’d be taking the train. I could’ve gotten a taxi. Tasuku Now that you mention it… Azuma You didn’t think about that? Tasuku Well… Azuma Being fixated on one thing and not thinking about the other possibilities… That’s just like you, Tasuku. Tasuku …I can’t deny that. Azuma … Tasuku … Azuma Why were you waiting for me? Tasuku …It looks like you’ve been going out at night a lot recently, so I was wondering if something’s wrong. Azuma …It’s just a bit of a diversion. Or I guess it’s more like research for my role? I’m playing a vampire role after all, so I thought I’d be more like a vampire by going out at night. Tasuku … Azuma Is something wrong? Tasuku Is it really— Azuma Hm? Tasuku No, it’s nothing… Azuma … Tasuku … Azuma You don’t have to worry. I’ll make the play a success. Tasuku …Okay. Tsumugi Hmm, might as well put it next to the bench… Azuma … Tsumugi Oh, Azuma-san. Perfect timing. Azuma What’s the matter? Tsumugi Look, the gentians are blooming beautifully. Azuma —They really are. Tsumugi I was thinking of placing the pot next to the bench. Azuma Everybody will be delighted. Tsumugi Yes. Azuma … Tsumugi …Azuma-san, how is practice going for you? Azuma As I thought, being the lead role is difficult. Tsumugi Do you find it difficult to act with Tasuku? Azuma If anything, it might be difficult for him instead. Tasuku is full of motivation, so seeing my attitude towards acting probably irritates him. Tsumugi Tasuku doesn’t talk much so it’s hard to understand him, but he doesn’t think it’s difficult to act with you at all. Azuma …I wonder. Tsumugi You’ll understand if you look at his script. Azuma His script? Tsumugi He pretty much always has it with him, so please ask him to show it to you next time. Azuma …Okay. I’ll do that.
