00:00My name's Seiya. In the spring of my sophomore year of high school, I was in the same class as a girl named Nao-san.
00:07She's perfect for me. I fell in love with her at first sight.
00:13She's cute. I wonder if she has a boyfriend.
00:17I was not super confident in my appearance, but I used my natural cheerfulness and pushy nature to talk to Nao-san.
00:24Hi, my name's Seiya. Are you joining an after-school club?
00:29No.
00:31Oh, I'm joining the mountain climbing club. We have no common interests.
00:38Are you not joining any clubs because you want to focus on your studies?
00:42That is one reason, but also I can't find one that I'm interested in.
00:46Do you like being out in nature? Maybe we can get some people together to go camping.
00:51It's so great being out in nature.
00:53Eh, I hate insects.
00:57It's okay. We can buy some bug spray to keep them away from you.
01:01Even then, if insects attack you, I'll attack them back.
01:05You are a funny guy.
01:09Yes! I think I'm giving a good impression of myself.
01:13So, let's get some people together and go camping.
01:17I'm going to think about it and let you know.
01:20Hey, do you have a boyfriend?
01:24What? No, I don't.
01:27Awesome!
01:29After this day, I continued visiting Nao-san and spent a lot of time talking to her.
01:34Why don't we go camping?
01:36You are too clingy. I can't.
01:39My feelings for Nao-san were getting stronger day after day.
01:43Nao-san! Can you help me with my math homework?
01:47I know you get good grades in math.
01:49I guess.
01:51Math comes easy to me, so I can help you.
01:54Woohoo!
01:56If you aren't serious about this, I won't ever help you again, okay?
02:00I was super happy because I might get a chance to get to know Nao-san a bit better.
02:04We were walking home from school on the day that we arranged for Nao-san to help me with math.
02:09I really like you.
02:12Would you go on a date with me?
02:14What?
02:16I'm sorry. I don't feel the same way.
02:19Please. Just the one date.
02:22You are too aggressive.
02:25Please. Please.
02:28If I had one wish in my whole life, that's what it would be.
02:32You would use the one wish in your entire life on me?
02:36Oh well. Okay, you win.
02:39Really? Woohoo!
02:41Only one date, okay?
02:44My dream came true.
02:46One weekend, we went for a date in an amusement park.
02:50Nao-san doesn't look like she's having much fun on our date.
02:55Maybe it's because she wasn't really up for the date in the first place.
02:59On our way home after our terrible date.
03:02Thank you so much for today.
03:05Oh, thank you too.
03:08I'm sorry, but I don't think I can date you again.
03:13I knew it.
03:15Okay, I understand.
03:18Even still, I'm happy to have gone on one date with you.
03:22I wasn't shocked to hear her answer.
03:25It was exactly what I expected.
03:28To be honest, I was just happy to even go on one date with her.
03:33Alright, shall we head to the train station?
03:36Yeah, let's go home.
03:39I was deeply moved by the thought that this would be the last time I would be next to her.
03:43We talked as we walked to the station.
03:46Hmm...
03:48Is that guy looking at us?
03:50Ouch!
03:52A thug bashed into me as we walked by each other.
03:55Hey, you hit me!
03:58Huh?
03:59The guy clearly barged into me.
04:02What should I do?
04:04You bumped into me on purpose, didn't you?
04:06You hurt me!
04:08Did you not see me because you were flirting with that girl?
04:11No, I wasn't.
04:14The thug beat me up.
04:16I didn't even get a chance to react.
04:18I don't think I realized how serious the situation was.
04:22Ah!
04:24Don't hurt her!
04:25She's important to me!
04:28Now San and I got picked up by the ambulance and were taken to the hospital.
04:32The thug who hit me was caught by the police.
04:35Is... Now San okay?
04:39She's fine.
04:40She just fainted.
04:42Don't worry.
04:44I'm so happy she's okay.
04:46I had to get stitches in my head and suffered some bruises.
04:49The bandage is so big.
04:52I hope Now San isn't too surprised by it.
04:55When I went to see Now San, she was already awake and sitting up in her bed.
04:59Oh my god!
05:01He really hurt you!
05:03Thank you for protecting me.
05:06It's okay.
05:08It's just a big bandage.
05:10How are you feeling?
05:11I'm fine.
05:13I want to ask you something.
05:15Can I take back what I said at the amusement park?
05:19Let's try to go out on another date.
05:22Really?
05:24Awesome!
05:25I can't believe I get another chance.
05:28Protecting Now San from the thug helped to change her mind about me.
05:32Two years after I graduated, I was still trying to become Now's boyfriend.
05:36I still had strong feelings for her.
05:39The furthest we've gone was holding hands.
05:42Today is the day.
05:44Huh?
05:45Did you say something?
05:47No, I didn't say anything.
05:50It's an experiment, so I'll be patient.
05:53Where do you want to go next?
05:55I was worried about my plan going wrong and the relationship ending.
05:59The next Sunday?
06:01My grandmother won the lottery and got free tickets for a hot spring.
06:06She has already been to the hot spring, so she gave me the tickets.
06:10Do you want to go together next weekend?
06:13Really?
06:14Yes!
06:15I'd love to!
06:17Have I become her boyfriend?
06:20On this trip, can I definitely say we're boyfriend and girlfriend?
06:24I was afraid to ask her about it, so I cannot be sure.
06:28The next Saturday, we went for an overnight stay at the hot spring.
06:32This is our first trip together.
06:34I'm so excited!
06:36Yeah, me too.
06:39I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.
06:42Even when we were sightseeing, I could not concentrate.
06:45Now Chan looks like she's having such a good time.
06:49Am I her boyfriend?
06:52I want to know for sure.
06:54Hey.
06:55Why don't we go to the hotel?
06:58We eventually got back to the hotel and went to the hot spring.
07:01And we had a dinner in our room.
07:04I'm feeling a little bit drunk.
07:09Hey, come over here.
07:14This means...
07:17But this is a trial.
07:20Should I be patient?
07:22Hey, Now Chan?
07:25That's when I looked up, asking myself.
07:28What?
07:29Are you sleeping?
07:31In the end, the hot spring vacation ended.
07:34I still didn't know where I stood with Now Chan.
07:37I started my third year of work, and before I knew it, it was September.
07:42Gosh, I've been transferred.
07:45In October, I have to move to a new city.
07:49Suddenly, I thought of Now Chan.
07:52The place I have to move to is quite far.
07:55I need to catch a flight to get there.
07:57I have to tell Now Chan about this.
08:00That night, I met with Now Chan.
08:03What's wrong?
08:05I have to move next month.
08:08It's far from here.
08:10I have to fly there.
08:12And to be honest, it's hard.
08:15Alright. I guess our trial is finished.
08:19She broke with me so easily.
08:22Thank you for... everything.
08:26Goodbye.
08:27What?
08:28I left the restaurant, crying while I ran.
08:31All of the memories of all the good times I had with Now Chan came flooding back into my head.
08:36Dang it! I want to go back in time!
08:40I ran out of energy, so I sat down.
08:42Now Chan appeared behind me out of breath.
08:48Whoa! You surprised me!
08:51You're such an idiot!
08:53Why didn't you ask me to come with you?
08:56What?
08:57I've been waiting for so long, but you never make a move on me!
09:02Why did you think I asked you to go to the hot spring with me?
09:06I gave you the perfect opportunity, and you didn't take it!
09:10Do you not find me attractive?
09:12Is that why you didn't ask me to come with you?
09:16Huh?
09:18So, when you said our trial was over, you didn't mean we were breaking up?
09:24Tell me to come with you!
09:27Come... with me?
09:30Yes!
09:32Are you okay with me asking you like this?
09:35It sounds exactly like us, so it's okay.
09:39So, we can be together forever!
09:42Yes! Finally!
09:45We started out at 17 years old.
09:48This is our ninth year together.
09:50When was our trial over?
09:52What?
09:54Right from the beginning, of course!
09:56Really? What does that mean?
09:59I mean the trial was for both of us!
10:02My trial was over the day you protected me from the thug.
10:06But your trial for me is never ending.
10:08That's why I asked you to go to the hot spring.
10:11This whole time, I misunderstood everything.
10:14I was just fighting with myself.
10:17It would have been so easy if I had just asked.
10:21But neither of us had the courage.
10:23What the heck?
10:25Did I really misunderstand that much?
10:28I'm going to show you how patient I've been.
10:31Get ready.
10:33Me too!
10:35Oh?
10:38It took us nine years to have our first kiss.
10:41The girl I like is pretty, charming,
10:44and gives me lots of unexpected happiness.
10:47It took a lot of suffering to eventually bring all of that happiness into my life.
10:51We promised each other from that day on
10:54to always speak about anything and everything that bothered us.
11:08I'm sorry.
11:10I'm sorry.
11:12I'm sorry.
11:14I'm sorry.
11:16I'm sorry.
