Why were they born and continues to exist? Why on this one planet does many languages exist...

《I wasn’t really in interested in

The movie I saw but I watched it because I Aoba liked it

《I saw the moment when someone fall in love for the first time

I was wondering what was that line was about

《Is that so? Is it like this how it feels?》

I Was glad

《It was very painful and I was just a little happy》

《I was a little, just a little bit happy

Hmm...

Ha...｡

Ah, Togawa-kun.

Hmm?

What?

Togawa, aren't you going to the after party? - Aoba: Are you not going to the after party?

I have a little work to finish

It doesn't seem like a bit

Do you enjoy your work? - It's not fun. It's work.

I'm getting paid. It doesn't have to be fun.

What are you doing? - Some kind of proposal.

Do you have to do it now?

I was told I have next week to finish it

I just got an email saying that I have to get it in by tomorrow...

I see.

It's okay. - I haven't ask you anything.

They say I'm a newbie but they say I can do it if I try.

Even your boss likes you, and say I'm doing well.

My coworkers reply on me also.

This was actually supposed to be done by a girl peer.

Tge biss thought Aoba-san would entrust with this work.

Well, by tomorrow it's... - Yeah.

It's not something I can't do if I try hard enough

I made a decision and accepted the task.

I am Thankful.

that I can live up to people's expectations.

Working people are amazing, aren't they? Going to work five times a week.

Working after getting home and even working evenings and on Saturdays and Sundays.

That's admirable right? - Aoba.

Mr. Togawa, have you ever touch a woman at the company as a greeting?

No right?. It seems that there are people that do that.

They say "It's a greeting"

Maybe it's a difference in culture

Are you eating properly? - I'm eating.

Are you sleeping properly? - I'm sleeping I'm sleeping

Hey, are you sure you're okay?

I'm okay.

Oh, You surprised me. - What?

I got it. Wi-Fi. - Huh?

Search for videos. - Videos?

"Dog and cat (space), getting along". - Dog and cat...｡

You'll see some cute videos. Please look at them.

So cute right? - Cute~.

Which would you prefer better melon soda or orange?

COMPOTA. (corn potage) - There is no COMPOTA at the drink bar.

COMPOTA. - Impossible.

Impossible?

There are things that are impossible.

It's unreasonable to do something unreasonable.

If you force yourself to do it, it's something unreasonable.

If you force yourself, things will be too much to handle

There is a difference between high expectations and pressure.

You know, I've never hit a person, nor have I ever wanted to.

Yeah. You don't seem like that kind of person.

But that guy who greets you at your workplace...

If I seem him greet Aoba when I meet him...

I think I'll probably hit him.

I see. I have to prevent you from seeing him.

Yeah. I don't want Aoba to see that guy anymore either.

Yeah? - You can watch too. You'll feel better.

Thank you

Hmm, maybe I should eat a hamburger. - Yeah, you should

《In the end, Tsumugi couldn't finish it, so I ate the rest》

《The next day, she called me to say that she quit her job.》

《After that...

We started coming and going to each other's houses

and became a couple

I'm hungry.

You can eat this

I'm sleepy. - Yeah

Either sleep or eat.

《She started sleeping well and eating well》

《She chose a part-time job based only on hourly wages and free meals.

I asked her what she likes and wants to do for her job and what she wants her job to be related to..

If you ask me

Music.

《Saying that with a face that reminded me that someone came to her mind

Two weeks later, she started working at her current part-time job.”

Then I'll making the booth

Will you help me? - Yes.

Aoba-chan, pass me the tape.

《What should I do if that person comes to the store》

《I was just thinking about such things》

"There's no way he's coming here"

《By that time, that someone will already be there》

《Thoughts》

Ah, Tsumugi. Are you home now? Oh yeah. I'll be there soon.

I see. Are you free at night? I happen to be close by.

Hamburger….

A hamburger? What is it?

Can you hear me Minato?

It doesn't have to be today? - Let's go.

Oh yeah

Sou. Sou!

Minato... ｡ - Sou!

I'm sorry. I should have told you about today.

You'll be surprised if you meet him suddenly, right?

Is it really okay if it's not today?

Let's go. I said, not today!

I'm sorry. I'll contact you again.

I'm back.

I told you not to because you'll let the insects in.

Oh, I'm Sorry

As a punishment, you are in charge of the making dinner today.

Hmm... I'm not hungry.

Oh, It looks dangerous.

What happened? - Minato is irritated.

Eh, Minato-kun? That Minato-kun? - Yes.

So Minato can get angry.?

I have no idea though.

(vibrator sound)

(vibrator sound)

Sorry I made you wait.

Please enjoy

Yes.

I'm sorry. I'll bring it to you right away.

How was it? Did you speak with that guy?

Ah... I was able to properly present what I learned.

Present?

It is difficult to have a normal conversation.

I'm not fluent at all.

You will naturally become fluent.

You'll get better with practice.

Come to think of it. - Come to think of it?

Why did Haruo-sensei start sign language?

Ah... I did volunteer work for people with hearing loss when I was in college.

That's how it started. - I see. That's wonderful.

No, I'm a lazy student

When I had to start job hunting

I realized that I have nothing special to offer.

That's why I did Volunteer work. I'm the worst, right?

No, you're not like that...

Do you know about 80% of deaf people

marry other deaf people?

I wonder if it means that deaf people are happier together

Hikaru? What the matter?

Anger? Yeah?

Are you Angry? Angry?

Hmm? Angry? What this about?

Sakura-kun Ah...

Did you hear about it from Tsumugi?

She doesn't think of you as a substitute boyfriend.

She did not fell in love with someone because the person she loved disappeared.

Absolutely not

Yeah. I really know that

Because my umbilical cord was cut by my sister

That's why I know that

Huh... I see. Yeah.

Well then, I need to go to my part-time job.

I have to repay my sister for various things Yeah.

Hello Tsumugi?

Is that so? Me too. I just wanted to call you

Hmm? - Moe?

You're there, right? I am but...

Didn't you hear me knocking?

I heard you but I was just too lazy to respond

Ah... I see. Yeah. What is it?

This is transportation money. Hmm? To where?

Your big brother's place

If you're so worried, you should go yourself.

He won't like it if I go.

Bog Brother, he's not the type that doesn't like you to go.

He just doesn't like you worrying about him.

You can spend the rest as your pocket money.

Oh, Yah! I won't be taking the Shinkansen.
