Coffee & Vanilla (コーヒー＆バニラ)

Risa, would you come to our drinking party tonight?

I'm sorry. I have plans today.

I knew she wouldn't join us.

You could have done a better job inviting her.

It's been a year since I moved to Tokyo.

I'm still not used to handling these situations well.

Thank you so much.

I'm bad at talking to others because I grew up in the countryside.

I've never dated anyone so far.

I want to change all that.

I've been wanting to fall in love like in a drama or manga.

However...

Are you a student at Aobadai University?

I am.

Seriously? Are you free now?

I'm waiting for my friend, but...

But the only thing that changed was my appearance.

And my friend said he can't come for another two hours.

Sorry. I have things to do.

What do you need to do? Let me drive you there.

Until now, I was never blessed with romance.

I can go alone. Excuse me.

Then, can you give me your contact info?

Sorry, but I can't.

Sorry, I was late because of my work.

Did you wait long?

Shall we go?

Do you think you're safe now?

Thank you so much.

Not at all.

It must be hard to be a popular girl.

I'm not popular.

Okay. I'm leaving now.

There is no way... to meet such a lovely person.

It can't be happening to me.

Are you free now?

I keep telling that to myself, but...

Yes.

I've never felt this way before.

I should use the utensils from the outside, right?

What should I do? I've never dated anyone.

And yet, my first date requires high-level etiquette.

Don't be so nervous.

Okay.

Sorry to invite you suddenly.

I really need to dine here today due to my job.

I'm glad that you asked me out.

What kind of job does he have?

Coming here alone is too lonely.

I understand.

Does this mean he doesn't have a girlfriend?

You must hate dining alone with a man in his 30s.

Of course not.

Finally, you looked me in the eyes.

Can you tell me your name?

I'm Risa Shiragi.

I'm Hiroto Fukami.

Risa, you're not a minor, are you?

Can you drink wine?

Wine...

To be frank, I've hardly ever drunk wine before. But...

You don't like alcohol?

Well, I'll have a little.

Okay, let's drink some wine.

If I’m a little tipsy, I may be able to talk comfortably.

I recommend Château Margaux. Is it suitable for you?

Okay. I'll have 1958 Château Margaux.

There is no reason for a mature man like him to be interested in me.

Caviar is the roe of a sturgeon.

Did you know a sturgeon is not a subclass of Elasmobranchii? (T/N: a subclass of Chondrichthyes or cartilaginous fish, including the sharks and the rays, skates, and sawfish.)

What?

It looks like a shark and it has scales shaped like a butterfly.

The body length is surprisingly 50-meters long.

50 meters?

That was a lie. - Eh?

Did you believe me?

Did he lie to relieve my tension?

How can you believe there is a 50 meter-long fish?

I know, right?

What's going on here?

I'm having so much fun.

Last night, I had dinner with Fukami and drank wine.

And what happened after that?

Morning. - Good morning.

Last night, I...

You fell asleep at the restaurant last night.

Unbelievable. - I didn't know you had such a low alcohol tolorance.

I got drunk and passed out in front of a stranger.

I am a mature woman. How could I behave this way?

Are you feeling unwell?

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Was it because you trusted me?

Please.

Thank you.

The coffee...

is so bitter.

Wait. Where is my cufflink?

I must have dropped it somewhere last night.

Oh, I found it.

Did you?

Did he just try to kiss me?

Is he playing with me?

Wait. I've never kissed before.

Sorry.

I've never felt this way before.

I know we just met, but I fell in love with you at first sight.

If you don't mind, can you be my girlfriend?

No way. This can't be happening.

A nice man like him shouldn't be attracted to me.

No way. Impossible. Don't fall for his trick.

This is absurd, isn't it?

I'm so sorry. I'm being weird.
