00:00I'm Shota. It was the winter of my senior year in high school, and I was studying hard for my college entrance exams.

00:08We no longer had to attend classes, and we had broken up for independent study.

00:13But I had to go to school that day to do something with my homeroom teacher.

00:17Oh, Shota. The lights in the freshman classroom have been left on. Can you please turn them off before you leave?

00:25Okay, I will do that. Goodbye, teacher.

00:29When I entered the classroom to turn the lights off, I found a girl sat down at a desk.

00:35Oh, wow. There's still someone here. Will you turn the lights off when you leave?

00:42Oh, okay. I understand.

00:47Hm? Is there something wrong?

00:51No, nothing.

00:54Whoa! Is this you? It's so good!

00:58Yeah, it's a great drawing, but I didn't draw it.

01:05Every morning when I come to class, I find this on my desk.

01:09It's so creepy. I'm so tired of erasing it every day.

01:13Uh, wait a minute.

01:16I brought over my own desk from my classroom.

01:20I don't have to come to school anymore, so you can use my desk.

01:25But... I feel bad.

01:28I guess the person who is drawing this really likes you, but doesn't know how to show it.

01:33But...

01:35Honestly, I didn't know what else to do, so I waited for her to calm down.

01:40It's getting dark. Shall we get out of here?

01:44Yes, thank you so much.

01:47So, I walked her home.

01:50I was lucky enough to be accepted into my first choice college.

01:53The college I chose was in the next prefecture, so I moved out of my parents' house and into my own house.

02:00Two years after I graduated high school, I heard that my homeroom teacher from my senior year was transferring schools,

02:06so I visited the school again to say bye to him.

02:09Hey, teacher! Good luck in your new school! Take care of yourself!

02:14Thanks for coming! I will make sure I do.

02:17After saying bye to my old teacher, I felt a bit nostalgic about my high school years,

02:22so I decided to go for a walk around the school.

02:25Hey! It's you, Shota!

02:28Oh, Kana! Long time no see!

02:31Kana is my friend's little sister.

02:34What are you doing here?

02:36My old teacher transferred to another school, so I came to bring him some flowers and say goodbye.

02:42While I was speaking with Kana, another girl approached us.

02:47Hello.

02:49Hello there.

02:52Who is this girl?

02:54This is my friend Sana.

02:56Oh, I have a good idea. Let's take a photo together!

03:00Eh? With me?

03:03Kana asked her friend to take our photo.

03:07Since you're here, you might as well take a picture with Sana, too!

03:12What? Me? Am I not the one taking the photo?

03:16It's okay, it's okay.

03:19I'm sorry! Please!

03:22Oh, well, if you want.

03:25I didn't know why, but I also had to take a photo with the girl that I didn't know.

03:31Alright then, I'm going to head back home.

03:34Kana, say hi to your brother for me!

03:37Excuse me.

03:39What?

03:41When I print the picture, I will send it to you.

03:46Can I have your address?

03:48You can give it to Kana and I'll come and pick it up from her.

03:52Alright, alright. Just give her someone to contact you on.

03:56I don't know what's going on here, but okay.

04:00Who is this girl?

04:03I didn't want to, but Kana pushed me into giving the girl my phone number.

04:08That night, the girl sent me a message.

04:12I'm so sorry about being pushy today.

04:15My name is Sana. Do you remember changing your desk for mine two years ago?

04:20Oh, I remember that!

04:23After that, Sana-chan began sending me messages, asking questions about what college was like.

04:29We stayed in touch for about a year.

04:32Sana-chan was also accepted to her first choice college.

04:35It was a different college than mine, but in the same prefecture.

04:39The house she moved into was very close to mine, so we went out to dinner together.

04:44I know this is very rude.

04:46You are a very nice person, but there's something very somber about you.

04:51What?

04:54Oh no!

04:56I didn't mean it in a bad way.

04:58It's just, you have so much potential.

05:01You are not wearing any makeup.

05:03Sorry, it's not really my business.

05:06Uh...

05:08My family always told me I'd speak with no filter.

05:12I don't have a way with words. I shouldn't have said that to her.

05:16Well, you don't have a boyfriend?

05:19No, I don't.

05:21Is there someone you are interested in?

05:23I have someone in mind.

05:25Oh, really?

05:27Did you tell him about how you feel?

05:29No, not yet.

05:32Why don't you tell him?

05:34Because...

05:35I don't have the confidence to do it.

05:38I don't think I'm cute.

05:40As you said, I'm very sober.

05:43I'm sure he doesn't like me.

05:46I'm sure you would look great with a bit of makeup and a nice dress.

05:49First, give yourself a makeover.

05:51Change your style and make him want you.

05:54But...

05:55Hey, let's stop saying but.

05:57And take some action instead.

05:59Get some advice about makeup and clothes from your friends or the internet.

06:03Okay, I will do my best.

06:06I was in my junior year of college, so I became busy with seminars and looking for jobs.

06:11Sana and I slowly drifted apart.

06:14I managed to find a job before summer started, so it gave me a bit of time to see Sana.

06:19I hadn't seen her in a very long time.

06:22It's past the time we were supposed to meet, and there's still no sign of her.

06:26It's not like her to be late.

06:28I wonder how her plan to change her image is going.

06:32Shota-san!

06:33Yeah, that's me.

06:35How can I help you?

06:37Is that...?

06:40Oh my god!

06:41Is that you, Sana-chan?

06:45Yes, it's me.

06:47Really?

06:48You look so different!

06:52I was just looking at you thinking about how cute you are.

06:55I thought, that is exactly what Sana-chan would look like if she changed her image.

07:01Really?

07:02It's been so long since we saw each other!

07:05You've changed so much!

07:07Good for you!

07:08You must have worked really hard!

07:11I...

07:12I'm so happy to hear that from you!

07:15Girls can look so different with a bit of makeup and a nice dress.

07:19Her personality doesn't seem to have changed at all.

07:22Congratulations on your job hunt!

07:24Let's celebrate together!

07:26Why don't we go shopping together and then go back to your house and have dinner?

07:31That sounds good to me, but my room is such a mess.

07:36Clean it up while I'm cooking!

07:38Okay.

07:39Do you know how to make hamburger steaks?

07:42I really want to eat that for dinner.

07:44Yes, I know how to.

07:45Woohoo!

07:47When we arrived at my house, Sana-chan began cooking and I went to tidy my room.

07:53Wow.

07:54Girls look so good from behind when they're cooking.

07:57My ex-girlfriend never cooked, so this is very new to me.

08:02Sana made hamburger steaks with a lot of finesse and arranged them on the plate very nicely.

08:08I didn't have much time to cook any side dishes, so this is what we've got.

08:12Enjoy!

08:14Bon appétit!

08:16Whoa!

08:17It's so good!

08:18You will make a very good wife someday.

08:21You've become so cute and you cook so well.

08:24I bet the guy you are interested in will like you too.

08:28By the way, have you told him how you feel yet?

08:32No.

08:34The guy I like is...

08:36You, Shota-san!

08:38I've been thinking about you since the day you swapped your desk with mine.

08:43Can I be your girlfriend?

08:46What?

08:48Well...

08:49Well, I don't think it's such a good idea.

08:52Why?

08:54I don't do well in long-term relationships.

08:57My longest relationship was only for three months.

09:00You are so good-looking and your personality is so lovely.

09:04You will find someone much better than me.

09:07No.

09:08I don't want someone else.

09:11I genuinely thought Sana-chan was way too good for me.

09:15If we have a relationship and then break up, it might get very awkward between us.

09:20Maybe the relationship we have now is the best one for us.

09:24I learned from you to not say but and to instead take action.

09:30We can say but later.

09:32So, we will take action, right?

09:36Well...

09:38You are right.

09:40Okay.

09:41Yes, we will.

09:44I can't say no when she's looking up at me with those big beautiful eyes.

09:50Sana pushed me into going out with her.

09:54I don't know if it was because we were a good match or because I had known Sana for so long.

10:00But three years after she graduated from college, Sana and I got married.

10:06I had no idea that the girl I exchanged desks with at that time, I would eventually exchange wedding rings with.

10:14The guy who used to draw on her desk actually asked her out on a date once but she refused

10:19because she thought he was creepy.

10:22Life is full of unexpected surprises.

10:24We never know what is going to happen.

10:27Luckily for me, I ended up very happy.

10:49You
