After the Rain (恋は雨上がりのように)

Yuto?

A hamster! I used to have one when I was little.

-Me, too! -Where did you get him?

My friend gave him to me.

-What's his name? -Tsubu!

-Did you come to show him to your father? -Yup!

I see. But...

It's your dad's day off today.

Shall we call him and ask him to come in?

I know where he lives.

-What? You're going to walk there on your own? -Yup.

That's dangerous and there are a lot of cars around here.

That makes me anxious.

I'll finish my shift soon, so I'll go with him.

After school, shoe cupboard, resonating sound of rain

My shirt gets wet as I run out with no umbrella

You're out of my league

I wish I was the rain So I could easily feel you

Let me touch you

One, don't treat me like a child

Two, it's even worse to play it off by being nice

-I love you -Can you hear me?

I love you

Right now, I can jump over the puddle

After the rain I caught your eye as a rainbow appeared

You're so indifferent to romance That's why!

Raindrops sparkle against the blue summer sky

Lulu lala I'm in love

After the rain

Right now, I have no doubts

I need no umbrella

THE SCENT OF RAIN

It's here.

KONDO

He's not home.

The door's open!

Come in!

I'm coming in.

Come on over here.

Sorry about the mess, but please make yourself at home.

Hey. I'm hungry.

What are you going to make?

MISO

7th, 8th, 9th, 10th

-It's ready. -Wow!

I think my dad's home!

-Let's surprise him! -What?

Welcome home!

-Were you here all along? -Yup!

-Did you come here on your own? -Yup.

I don't know whether to scold him or praise him.

-What about this omu-rice? -I made it.

-What? You did? -Yup!

-On your own? -Yup!

You've grown up so fast.

Does your mom know that you're here?

-Nope! -What?

-Did you really make that? -Yup!

-That's amazing. -Let's eat!

It looks good.

-Can I have a bite? -Sure.

It's a little salty.

Hey, you're spilling!

-I need a tissue! -Don't talk with your mouth full.

What? You're eating that again, Dad?

This is what I like.

You always eat the same thing.

It is my favorite meal.

But you always tell me not to be a picky eater.

-Summer break is coming up soon. -Yup!

Do you have plans to go anywhere?

Radio calisthenics!

I wasn't really asking about that.

Oh, but yeah, I guess they still do radio calisthenics.

What about you, Dad?

Are you going somewhere for your summer break?

Well, I don't get a summer break.

-What are you going to do then? -Work.

What about when you're not working?

-Well, I read books. -What about when you're not reading?

I just read books most of the time.

What else do you do then?

Well, come to think of it, the other day I did go see a movie for the first time in ages.

Did you hear that?

-It might be a ghost! -No, it can't be.

See? Did you hear that?

Ghost, ghost, ghost, ghost

Ghost, ghost, ghost, ghost

-What is this? -It's Tsubu.

Tsubu?

It's really hot in here.

So, you came here to show him to me. Are you going to keep him as a pet?

Nope. I'm not the one who's going to keep him.

-You're the one who's going to keep him. -What?

I can't. I'm busy with work,

so there's no way I can have pets.

Sorry, but you're going to have to keep it at your mom's, okay?

Mom said we can't keep him.

And if you keep him here, I could come here more often.

I see. I'll think about it then.

Okay?

What?

Tachibana? Why are you here?

-Yuto! Bring some barley tea! Hurry! -Okay!

Tachibana?
