Kocchi Muite yo Mukai-kun (Look at Me Mukai-kun / Turn to Me Mukai-kun / こっち向いてよ向井くん)

This is Mayu Nakatani, who will be working with me from today.

Mr. Mukai

I wanted to overwrite it with happy memories.

Do you want to date?

Ah...

That's not what it's about.

At that time, they...

What were you thinking and what were you thinking when you dumped Mukai-kun?>

I wanted to hear a little more in-depth story――>

I met them at Pireo>

Ah…

Good evening

My name is Mayu Nakatani and I work in the accounting department of “Tee Kit”.

I'm pleased to meet you, today

Yes, so――

I am still in touch with Mr. Kasai.

That's right.

I wonder if Mukai-kun and I had a good time...

I even thought about it

Ah, no, that's it...

Ah, if Kasai-kun asked me...

Without a fierce approach――

She may have been dating Mukai-kun.

Is there a world line like...?

Hmm.

I don't think that world line exists anywhere.

Why is that?

Hmm, I'm also indecisive...

That's why I criticize people.

Mr. Mukai...

Puzzle pieces that seem to fit but don't

It may be...

Exactly like this

I see.

Or rather, leaving the puzzle unfinished...

Is there such a thing?

That's certainly true (Nakatani).

A big puzzle with 3000 pieces or something...

If you want to do it with the whole family...

I understand, though.

Yes (Nakatani) A piece like this――

Leaving a puzzle behind...

Hmm

Can I finish it for a moment?

Yeah (Nakatani) Huh...

Ah, but we don't really talk while we're doing it...

It's okay to do it while doing it.

Well then, take your word for it

that? What were you talking about?

Well, Mukai-kun...

It's like a piece of this puzzle

oh that's right

So, umm, what do you say?

Probably though--

Mr. Kasai also creates puzzles like this...

I think the decisions are made quickly and it's over in no time.

Especially if there is something left unfinished in the middle like this...

I feel like it will be completed quickly.

After all, there are people like that...

I think it's very exciting.

Is it exciting? (Nakatani) Yes.

I guess he's a person who has a lot of things that I don't have.

I see.

But for Mukai-kun...

Does that mean there is no such place?

No, no, no! Or even about her girlfriend Mukai-san.

I think I know the good points.

inside me though

What kind of place is that?

Hmm

The concern of someone who cares about me

I knew that part well.

So I'm not saying that Mr. Mukai is no good.

But with me and Mukai-san...

I'm starting to feel a little mushy.

Gudaguda? (Nakatani) Yes.

Eh, Nakatani-san's love life so far?

Is that what you mean?

Ah~

Well, maybe so.

Well, so far...

I don't have much experience with it though.

We broke up because of cheating.

Who was he before?

That's...

Does that mean Mr. Nakatani was doing it?

eh? No, that's wrong. Why is he?

That's him

Ah, that's right.

That's right~

He's also a little older than me.

I had a part-time job when I was a student.

He was an employee of a cake shop.

But as soon as I graduated from university, I got a job at an insurance company...

From the time I started working, we gradually stopped seeing each other.

So, did you pass each other or something like that?

Yes, that's right

Then I got cheated on.

The person I was cheating with was a girl younger than me.

In the end, I was given a lame excuse――

I didn't even have a word to say goodbye, and it just didn't work out.

Sometimes I thought it was my fault.

That's why I decided to work hard on makeup and improve my self-esteem.

So...

Why are men...

More than a young-looking girl――

Do you actually like young girls?

So I'm not older anymore...

I wondered if there might be people of the same age or younger than me.

I mean male.

It depends on the person, doesn't it?

ah

I see

That's right, it depends on the person.

Just because he was like that...

It's rude to think the same way.

By the way, Mr. Nakatani...

Have you only been dating older men?

Oh, yes

Well, I grew up in an all-girls school.

So to begin with, there aren't many men in my life.

The man I was closest to was my father.

So it's from that university, right?

I had the opportunity to meet various men.

That's right. (Nakatani) Yes.

Both high school and university were within commuting distance from my parents' house.

Just when I was thinking, “Okay, okay”――

I missed the opportunity to live alone.

So I'm a little naive in some ways.

Is it naive?

yes

I have a friend who is a returnee.

That child is learning the violin and other things.

There was a man whose hobby was the violin.

During small talk, I said, ``So, you're a violin boy, right?''

Violin boy?

delusion! That's exactly what you looked like

“Certainly, but-”

"This is the first time I've ever been called a violin boy."

But about the woman I play the violin with...

When I told her that she was called Violin Girl...

No, no, no (Nakatani) That's right!

That's what I was told back then too.

About that bilingual person...

Isn't it called bilingual?

I mistakenly thought it would always be like that.

Ah, but that's not true.

I realized that when I was a student...

That was quite a while ago.

That means you're ignorant of the world.

I might be told

No, hahaha...

Oh, and in the microwave the other day...

Oh, did you make the egg explode?

No no no! That's not it

I understand that.

To get rid of the smell after warming up the fish...

I heard that citrus fruits are good.

So I was warming up that lemon...

Bontte

Even if that means you're ignorant of the world...

I feel like there isn't.

No no no

So now I'm learning things one by one.

Hehe...

Face type

Huh? (Kasai) Sorry, I suddenly came to work at work.

Well, I'm panicking. I'm so surprised.

No, “Is this person making fun of me?”

I thought the opposite

So you weren't happy?

Ah, no, no!

Well, that's right, I'm putting all my money and care into it...

After all, I was glad to have something like that.

It sounds like you're being cautious.

That's right

but…

What can be conveyed so directly...

This has never happened before...

I can't express my thoughts directly...

Mr. Kasai: I was even impressed by how amazing it was.

I just want to talk just the two of us.

I like your face...

Is it weird that I want to know what's inside?

That's strange...isn't it!

That's one of Kasai-san's strengths.

What does that mean?

What can I say, Kasai-san?

Not only can you express your feelings directly, but...

You try to think about my intentions too.

I want to understand this...

I can feel that you are trying to understand.
