[COSTCO SUBS PRESENTS]
[Previously unaired footage]
-I'm going to Taiwan tomorrow. -Really?
That sounds exciting.
I don't want to go. I'll miss you all.
-How many days? -For four days.
After that, you go to other places, right?
You must be excited. You have a movie shoot there, right?
Yeah, an action movie.
-What do you play? -Acho!
I'll play...
Acho!
What's that?
Acho...?
That kung fu shout is known only in Japan?
You don't do this?
Acho!
I have no idea.
Do you have a minute to chat, Ryo?
Sure.
I want to talk to you about something.
-I don't like this. / -I'm not at all trying to run from this situation.
I don't want you to do "Acho!" when we're alone.
I wouldn't know how to respond.
-If you do it again, I don't want to go... -No, I won't.
-If you won't, then I'll hear you out. -I'll be a good girl.
Do you know why I took you aside?
To put it simply,
I'm worried about how to interact with Emika...
In what way?
I thought Ruka and Emika were having good vibes together,
so I asked her if she'd go out with him.
Then, Emika told me not to get the wrong idea
because she didn't have feelings for him.
They're just close.
I don't know if you know, but the two of them
play Super Smash Bros quite often 'til 3 am everyday.
-And they're sleeping side by side. -Yeah, yeah!
Seeing what they actually do,
it's natural to think that they are in a relationship, right?
That's true. If I did those kind of things with a girl housemate,
and the guys misinterpret that there is something between us,
I'd just have to accept that they could possibly do that.
Right?! Of course.
I never knew that since I always go to bed early.
So I'm not sure, though...
In my eyes, she always denies everything like,
"That's not true." "No, that's not the case." "It's not this, or that."
That's the kind of impression I get.
I feel like she's the kind of person who can't accept what the other is saying.
I know she has that aspect to her.
When someone gives her any advice,
she never responds with, "You're right," or, "I'll try my best."
But that's not necessarily good or bad.
It might also depend on timing. Whether it's right or not.
-I talked to Hana about that yesterday. -Yeah, in the TV room?
When I told her not to get me wrong,
I thought she would just be like, "Ah, okay."
But her reaction wasn't what I expected. It was more like,
"I hear you, but it's impossible to ask people not to misinterpret."
It doesn't sit right with me.
Of course, if I'm always with Ruka...
Say you heard the phrase: "sleeping side-by-side"...
...you would misinterpret.
Right. I would also imagine there'd be something between the two in question.
But if you just heard that we play games and watch movies,
would you still imagine it that way? Between Ruka and me.
I know Ruka well since I've lived with him for six months.
So I thought that you two are close, but more as friends than romantically.
But Hana didn't seem to think so.
Though she actually didn't see how we spend time,
I don't want to be told, "It's impossible to ask people not to misinterpret."
Well, if someone interprets it that way, it's probably best to accept that's how...
I mean, we got into an argument...
Why did it end up like this?
But you could explain it to her, right? That that wasn't the case.
She said that maybe it was because of her lack of experience.
But "experience"? Really? I wonder...
I have had many opportunities to interact with boys for sure.
If I was the kind of person who took practically everything in a romantic way,
I would always focus on romance.
It's natural that two people can't see eye-to-eye sometimes--
But...
But!
Even though Hana pointed that out to me,
I want to continue to get along with Ruka,
and I don't want to change how I interact with him.
I don't think this issue is something we need to see eye-to-eye on.
We have different values,
and it's not that I'm right, nor that she's exactly right.
Yeah, you two have different ways of thinking.
If everyone around me calls me out for it,
of course I would definitely fix or change my behavior.
That isn't the case here.
I've come to realize, "Oh, she...
she just wants to vent her feelings,
and just wants someone to listen to everything."
But like, yesterday, she was quite, like,
"Don't get me the wrong way!" That's how I heard it.
Really? She sounded like that?
Yeah. Though she does things I'm obviously going to misinterpret with Ruka,
she said, "I'm not like that!" with a smug face.
-I was like... -"Smug face"...
"I'm not going to become your punching bag!"
So I argued with her.
But she's the kind of person who just wants to vent.
There is no use telling her anything.
-Yeah, I get what you mean. -In general--
maybe those aren't the right words, but...
If your point of view is to accepted by someone, you should accept theirs, too.
That's what I think.
I really tried to understand her point of view,
so I accepted her opinion at first.
So I thought, "Shouldn't you accept my opinion?"
Then I realized there was no use saying anymore to her.
So I stopped talking in the middle of the conversation.
Yeah, that's tough.
