[COSTCO SUBS PRESENTS]

[Previously unaired footage]

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

-This is our first girl's night out.
-That's right.

I want more spice in my life!

Is that so?

How's it going with Ruka?

Basically, he's too
physically close to people.

While everyone in the house watched
a movie, he was sitting next to me.

His body always touches somewhere on
my body. Like our legs touch each other.

He's like a kid.

He's just physically close to people.

He doesn't have
special feelings for that person?

-He definitely doesn't.
-Nope.

I don't like that way of interacting.

-Oh, really? / -If someone did that to me,
I think I might fall for him.

He doesn't show his feelings at all.
He's just there.

He's right beside you, but that's it.

For real? You don't get butterflies?

I wonder...

-You don't want to have butterflies?
-I was worried that I might smell bad,

-since I was sweaty from work.
-Oh, you meant that?

He is...

He's adorable.

I worry about him-- or rather...

-We're like his mom.
-That's right.

-We always worry like, "Are you okay?"
-But...

I heard he doesn't want
to be treated like a kid.

Really?

Sometimes I feel he's childish,
but I try not to treat him like a kid.

But we treat him like a kid
because of the way he acts, right?

If he showed us his manly
or mature side, even just a bit,

we would think
he's manly and cool.

But he's passive, unmanly and
overly dependent on other people, so...

-You have a sharp tongue!
-But...

So, that makes me think
he's just a lazy man.

Because I don't even know
everything about him yet...!

But you should mostly understand him
since you lived together for a month.

A month has passed, but...

even if he acts like a kid,
I don't want to treat him that way.

You're kind.

If I were him, I wouldn't want
others to do that to me.

He's lacking in so many
departments for sure.

I don't want to force my values on him.

But if he tried to act manly
even for just a bit,

you could see how he's trying to grow...
I'm not close to him yet though.

Though he doesn't do anything,
he doesn't want to be seen as unmanly...

Not unmanly.... if he really doesn't want
to be seen like a younger brother.

Even if he can't act like a man,
I want him to show us that he's trying.

That's just my opinion.

You're really close with him, aren't you?

No, it's not that.

We're just the closest in age...

There's only one year's
age difference between us.

So we've naturally been together--

I wonder...

I've spent the most time with him.

You two look well-suited.

But I can't be myself with him so far.

Oh, really?

I'm actually talkative.

I usually talk a lot.

I can't reveal myself to anyone yet.

Seriously?
Please show us your real character.

I want to show what I really am....!
But...

-I wonder why...
-Does it take time?

Yup, I can't open up to people quickly.

You don't have to force yourself.

No, I'm not forcing myself.

At your own pace...
