Tsumari Suki tte iitai n Dakedo, (I Mean / I Want to Say I Like It / Tsumari Sukitte Iitaindakedo / つまり好きって言いたいんだけど、)

Why did you wave back at me?

Words I can't say...

My shadow stretches out and I pretend to walk well,

but I'm the only liar here

Because I found you

Everything seemed so dazzling

Come on...

Come on...

I want to stay away from you, I want to get closer to you

It's so much more than a silly wish

I mean, I want to say I love you

But...

I couldn't be honest with you

I mean,

I mean,

I

I

Love

Love

you

you

You're burning up.

You need to go to the hospital.

I'll be all right. Please stay by my side...

I'll be right beside you.

I'm...

trying my best to make you smile, Chii-chan.

I love you.

Ms. Saejima, where's Ayumi?

She went ahead and took a taxi...

I'm sorry, what?

What the hell are you doing?

I'm terribly sorry!

It's my fault for not noticing the change in call time,

and Ms. Ayumi got into a lot of trouble...

I'm really sorry.

According to her doctor,

it was a hyperventilation attack caused by stress and overwork,

and that she would get better if she rested for a while.

You got lucky.

If Ms. Ayumi had collapsed outside, what do you think would have happened?

The media would have been all over it by now, and we'd be in big trouble.

Be grateful for her professionalism by going back to her apartment.

Yes...

I'm back.

Hara-kun, how did it go?

Yes...

I've apologized to everyone

and negotiated with them to extend the filming of the morning drama.

But they can only stay on set for three days,

and beyond that is impossible.

I see.

How many scenes are left?

10 scenes.

But the time she missed,

she'll have to shoot it all in one day.

I wonder if Ayumi will have recovered by then...

I spoke to the co-star's office this afternoon about the situation,

and if it goes on any longer, we'll be in trouble...

No way...

Ms. Ayumi collapsed.

Even if I wanted to go visit her now,

it would just backfire if the media found out.

If only I had noticed the time change earlier and gone to pick her up.

It's my fault.

I had a fever

and made you stay up all night to take care of me...

I...

failed as a manager.

EPISODE SIX

Ms. Ayumi,

I'm really sorry.

It wasn't your fault, Ms. Saejima.

To collapse over something like that,

I must've been really stressed out.

Huh? Isn't that Ayumi Kurio?

- She's so beautiful. - I'm a big fan. - Please.

I was fed up with my weakness.

It was rather refreshing...

Ms. Ayumi...

How are things on set?

Ah, yes.

They need to shoot the rest of the scenes by tomorrow or they won't make it.

I see.

Would that be okay?

If you don't feel well,

do you want to ask if they can extend

the shoot again? - I'll do it.

I'll do my best to get it done!

Even if I have to risk my acting career...

Yes.

If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.

As for your future schedule,

following the AKEBONO beverage,

you have two major commercials lined up.

And then

make appearances on various primetime variety shows to gain recognition.

- That's amazing. - After that,

I've received an offer from director Kengo Inagaki to star in a movie.

- A movie? - Yes.

I've read the script,

and it's a great role, and I think it's going to be a big hit as your first lead role.

Mr. Kagami,

I thought you weren't too keen on me working as an actor.

Right.

To be honest, I was thinking of

making you focus on commercials and variety shows.

But

the other day, Ms. Saejima...

I think Mr. Fujishiro's charm is best displayed

when he is acting...

I think acting is his true calling!

Yes.

She tried her best to appeal directly to Mr. Higashiyama.

Ms. Saejima did that...

She conveyed her feelings directly

and not a single word was a lie.

To be able to truly believe in the talent she's in charge of like that,

I thought it was great...

Great?

Yes.

To respond to Ms. Saejima's feelings,

I would like to study harder

and put more effort to work in dramas and movies.

Thank you for your hard work.

To respond to Chii-chan's feelings...

Now, that's all for arrangements.

- Prepare for the last scene. - Yes!

Okay. Bring that over here. Let's go.

Ms. Ayumi,

the scene you just did was so emotional, it was really good.

Thank you.

How are you holding up?

Yes.

I'm good.

Ayumi.

It's time for the last scene.

Last...

From the time you passed the audition until today,
