Hirugao: Love Affairs in the Afternoon

How did it happen, Sawa-chan?

What?

Which one of you invited the other one first?

Um, I don't remember.

There's no way you don't remember.

- Come clean right now. - Stop.

Why not?

You're such a cute couple I wanted to know how you two got married.

Oh!

This is quite embarrassing, but I invited her out first.

Sawa and I worked in the same company

and after the company holiday party I told her we needed to have our own.

That's so romantic Sawa-chan, your husband outdid himself.

Oh no, I was young back then.

How about the two of you?

Both of you are so attractive, I bet you didn't have an arranged marriage?

Well, yes.

My husband is my prince.

Right, Sawa-chan?

- Your prince? - I told you!

Before we got married, I was involved with a married man.

My husband scolded me, and rescued me from that horrid affair.

Oh, I'm sorry, I think I spoke too much about myself.

Having an affair, I should be looked down upon.

No, don't worry about it, I'm not that conservative.

Lots of things happen when we're young.

I'm even a bit envious of your dramatic experience.

We met in such a boring way, didn't we?

Of course we did, we're just boring people.

Hey!

But look at this, you're so in love!

- Stop it! - That's so embarrassing!

You have such a nice home too!

- Really? - Your furniture is nice too!

I actually work at a furniture company called Minowa Furniture.

I know it! They're so tasteful!

Wow, that's music to my ears!

- Can I take a look at the other room too? - Nori.

It's fine, we don't have anything to hide.

- Yay! - You're welcome, this way!

- This one too! - Yes, yes!

Excuse us.

Can I get you more tea?

Yes. Please.

My throat was dry.

The more Noriko-san smiled, I thought she actually knew everything.

Even though that was impossible.

You really don't have anything here.

Yes.

Wow, the food looks amazing.

Are you all right?

You won't eat anything decent if you stay here.

Probably.

What are you going to do about your children?

I'd love to have custody, but they would never come with me.

That's irresponsible.

You don't have to tell me, I know.

I'm a horrible mother.

Are you trying to justify yourself?

Let's eat!

I'm worthless.

I can't be accountable for your life.

What has gotten into you?

A long time ago...

I was once told that I destroyed her life.

By whom?

My ex-wife.

I didn't know.

You were married?

She came from a rich family.

Her parents didn't approve, so we eloped.

She believed that I would make it big one day.

But... that never happened.

She couldn't bear living without money

and left within three years.

A common story.

She told me the time she spent with me, was the worst she'd ever had.

I will never say that to you.

I don't even want to say that to my husband.

What's so funny?

Isn't it funny?

We had such a shallow relationship.

But now we're having such a serious discussion.

I know, right?

We were just playing, weren't we?

You just smiled for the first time.

You're so cuddly!

Does this belong to Sawa-chan?

Um, yes.

I can tell you're a professional.

It's such a cozy bedroom.

Thank you so much.

Don't compliment him too much, it'll get to his head.

Why not? I meant it! Oh, is this a dresser?

Yes, this one is simple yet practical.

I see... This is so cute!

Why do you keep it hidden away?

Um, I'm not sure why.

Did you have something like this?

Yes, um, I got it from a friend quite a while ago.

Is it...a mountain gorilla?

Should we go soon?

Already?

It's dinner time, and I have work too.

I didn't realize it was so late.

Sorry I got carried away!

It was nice to see you.

Please come by any time.

Thank you!

The time went by so fast.

- I got that. - No it's fine.

Oh, wait.

I forgot to ask you, Sawa-chan.

What is it?

How did you know my husband's last name?

You just met him for the first time, right?

I use my maiden name, so you shouldn't know my husband's last name.

That's because...

I'll tell you why.

Actually...

me...

and Sasamoto-san...

Good morning.

Wow! This looks delicious!

Mana and Hina, isn't this nice?

Let's eat.

Thank you for coming so early in the morning.

That's no problem. I hope the food is to your liking.

Let's eat.

Where's mom?

When is she coming home?

It will be all right. Just eat.

It's really good.

Mom's never coming home.

Why not?

Divorce.

Is that true, Daddy?

What's in this omelet... mmm, potatoes!

Don't cry!

We'll be just fine without Mom.

Eat your breakfast.

I don't want it.

Are you stupid?

A lot of people get a divorce.

Just like what happened to Yuki's parents.

I don't want divorce!

Stop it, stop it.

I'm going to summer school.

That was quite a surprise, yesterday.

That you and Kitano-san's husband knew each other.

I know.

I was surprised too.

Actually, this is not the first time Sasamoto-san and I met.

What do you mean?

One of my students got in to trouble with the police damaging a car in June.

Sasamoto-san was in that car.

Car?

It was Rikako-san's car.

There was a scuffle when the student tried to run, and Sasamoto-san was hurt.

So I met with her and Takigawa-san to talk about the settlement afterward.

Oh!

- That thing Rikako-san was talking about! - Yes!

It's such a small world!

I didn't know that, what a coincidence.

That's why I was surprised when I found out your husband was Mr. Kitano.

Then why didn't you mention it earlier?

You should have just spoke up and told us he was that teacher from the other day.

I thought it would be better to keep the incident quiet for the student's sake.

Thank you for being so considerate.

No problem. Thank you for everything.

He was a better actor than I expected.

Me too.

It was sad that the first thing we did together was lie.

I'm going now.

Summer school?

Sorry I couldn't get up.

It's fine, I ate bread.

Wait. I'll walk you.

You don't have to.

No, I feel bad that only I have summer vacation.

I'll go change.

It's still hot outside, right?

Do you think I should wear shorts?

Or maybe that's too casual.

Why is everything deleted?

The zoo...

Good morning!

How are things with the teacher?

Nothing to tell.

Let me know if you need help.

That teacher really encouraged me the other day.

I was already thinking I needed to resolve things.

Hagiwara-san, we need help here.

I have a favor to ask of you today.

- Of me? - Yes.

Rikako left home.

I know where she is.

Could you let her know how I feel?
