Coffee Shop

[00:14]

It’s pretty busy, huh? I wonder when this place opened.

Huh? No way… not at a place like this near the university.

Hey, could I get a coffee?

Oh, thank you.

Huh…? Aah…!

Finally found you!

Oh gosh, I’m sorry!

No, no, sir, I didn’t mean that at all.

Oh, no, I get it, really. This is just a regular coffee shop, not the kind of place where you can get handsy with the waitresses. It’s just… I…

Hmm… don’t you remember me?

Ah… I see…

Sorry about being rude. Please, go back to whatever you were doing.

(Footsteps)

[02:12]

No doubt…

(Evening)

The shop is about to close, right? I waited around for you. I wanted to apologize again for being so weird earlier.

I’m relieved that you didn’t mind.

No, I didn’t mean to call you out or anything. Sure, some customers might feel offended if you served coffee with your left hand, but I’m actually grateful that you did. It let me spot that blue mark on your hand.

[03:18]
I’ve got one too…

See? Just like yours.

Strange… you think?

I’m Kirihara Tadaomi, a student at Imperial University. Would you like to have dinner with me? There’s a lot I’d like to talk about.

Thank you. Oh, in that case, there’s a good Western restaurant near the tram stop, would you like to check it out? Let me treat you as an apology for earlier.

Don’t even worry about it. Please, let me do it.

Fate

[00:05]
Go ahead, get whatever you want.

I bet you’re hungry after being on your feet all day.

Heh, you said yes at first but now… Alright, I’ll just order for both of us. I’ll get lots of food, and we’re not leaving until you’ve finished every last bite.

Hehe, then please go ahead and pick something. I’ll go for a pork cutlet.

Macaroni gratin? Just that? That’s not gonna be enough, right?

(Call the waiter) Excuse me!

[01:03]
Macaroni gratin and pork cutlet. And… croquettes, veal piccata, consommé soup, and two salads. Oh yeah, and rice too.

I really want you to eat your fill. We’ve never had a meal together before, after all.

Oh wait, do you… remember something?

What? Me? Your long-lost brother?

Hahaha, no way, that’s not it. I’m an only child. My mom wasn’t really healthy enough to have more kids. I mean, sure, maybe my dad’s got another kid somewhere, but I think I’d know by now if he had a mistress.

No chance of that. My parents are so close that you can tell just by looking at them.

[02:13]
But what about your parents?

Ah, I see. Your mom raised you all by herself… after your dad kicked her out to be with his mistress…

How is she? Oh, three years ago… I’m really sorry. I would’ve loved to meet her. So you’ve been making it on your own since then? That’s impressive.

Ah, I see, so you thought so because of the birthmark. The same blue birthmark in the same place means we must be siblings. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

[03:20]
I wonder if this is… the price of a double suicide.

Ah, the salad and soup have arrived. Let’s talk while we eat. Please, enjoy your meal.

Hm? What do I want to talk about? Ah, that…

[03:59]
I wanted to ask if you’d go out with me.

What’s this about waitresses and college students being in different social classes? Come on, aren’t we both regular people? Sure, I grew up pretty comfortable and got to go to college, but we’re not that different.

Don’t worry about my parents. My mom used to be a geisha in Shinbashi, and my dad’s a progressive thinker who doesn’t care about stuff like that. They wouldn’t mind.

Actually, before my dad married my mom, he was engaged to someone else. It was an arranged marriage to expand two companies, and it ended up being called off. That’s why he always says it’s best for two people who are truly in love to be together.

[05:16]
You may have seen many of your fellow waitresses played with by Imperial University students, but I’m not like that. The fact that we share the same blue birthmark… it’s fate. Don’t you think so? I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

Ah, sorry, I’m getting way ahead of myself. We literally just met today, this must be pretty overwhelming.

But I’ve fallen in love with you, and well…

Seeing you smile at the coffee shop… even though you were just being nice to customers… I…

Please, would you consider going out with me? I am serious, with an eye to the future.

Tryst

[00:25]
Sorry to keep you waiting. It’s Sunday, so I thought we could go somewhere nice. What do you think? I heard the lotus flowers are in full bloom at the park in Kamakura.

Great, then it’s settled! On our way back, we can stop by Yokohama and grab something delicious for dinner.

Alright, let’s take the tram to the national railway station. When’s the next one…?

It’s 10:05 now, so about 10 minutes.

[01:08]
Oh, that’s right. Have you read the kodan book I lent you the other day? “Evening Glory and Moonlit Night.”

What did you think?

You couldn’t stop crying… That really got to you, huh?

You see, this story’s based on real events, but it’s actually a bit different from what really happened.

In “Evening Glory and Moonlit Night,” a samurai falls in love with his lord’s wife. They end up together, and then they’re accused of adultery. With no way out, they commit suicide together. But the real story wasn’t like that. She wasn’t accused of adultery at all — she was actually framed for treason against the government. And then…

[02:17]
That’s right. The truth is even more tragic. I think people just focused on their tragic love story and kind of ignored the political stuff. Then, when it was adapted into puppet shows or storytelling, the government banned stories of treason, so the crime was changed to adultery.

You’re right. Those lovers who committed suicide together probably got reborn, found each other again, and live happily ever after somewhere.

Ah, here comes our train.

Hehe, if you like, you can keep the book. I’d be happy if you read it over and over again.

[03:15]
Come, let’s hop on.

What a beautiful day. And so many people. Just walking around with you like this makes me pretty happy, though. What about you?

Hehe, don’t be shy. Tell me your true feelings.

That makes me happy. Really.

Ah, you can see the pond from here already. Look at all the lotus flowers. They’re so beautiful.

Oh, what’s wrong? You look so pale.

Don’t push yourself. Shall we… ah, maybe we can rest at that tea shop over there?

Eh, you’re okay? No, but…

Wait, are you afraid of ponds? Of water?

Ah… I get it now… I’m sorry. I wasn’t considerate enough. I’ve been so excited since we started dating. There are benches with red felt cushions at the tea shop, let’s rest there. Here, lean on me, take it slow.

[05:32]
I hope this makes you feel a little better.

Excuse me! Could we get two dango and two red bean soups, please?

I just ordered whatever. Is that okay with you? You like dango, right?

Hehe, good. You’re looking a little better.

I’m really sorry about this. From now on, we’ll stay away from water, whether it’s Ikenohata in Ueno or the Sumida River.

[06:12]
… Oh? But you actually want to see the ocean?

I mean, I’m happy to hear that… but if you’re afraid…

I see…

Then let’s go this summer. For our honeymoon.

Hehe, why so surprised? I’ve told you from the very beginning—I want to spend my life with you.

Next spring after I graduate, I’ll start training at my father’s company. So, I think it would be a perfect time.

Maybe I’m rushing things, but you never know what’ll happen in this world. It might be peaceful here, but our army’s in Siberia [1]… who knows what’s coming next…

[07:16]
That’s why I want to make you my wife as soon as possible. I’m also worried about your work at the coffee shop. I want you to live a relaxed life at home, and have lots of children soon.

Ah, there I go, getting ahead of myself again…

I should’ve proposed properly first, geez.

Will you marry me?

(Wind rustles)

[08:09]
I love you… only you… always…

Ah… ah… I’m sorry!

Ah, it’s okay! I get it! We shouldn’t be doing this kind of thing in front of a tea shop…

Looks like a bunch of people saw us. Ugh… I keep messing up.

Will you forgive me?

Thanks!

Shall we enjoy our dangos and red bean soup?

[1] Japanese intervention in Siberia (1918-1922)

Moment

[00:02]
So no trains tonight. Man, what a pain. Let’s get away from all these people.

Looks like there’s some problem with the electrical stuff or the overhead wires. The Tokaido Main Line is out of service. We could try other lines but they’d only get us halfway home.

I guess we’ll have to find a place to stay. Once they fix whatever’s wrong, we can catch the first train in the morning and you’ll still make it to work on time.

[01:06]
This is actually my first time staying in a modern western hotel. Oh, yours too? Huh.

So this is a bed… It’s so high off the ground. Do people actually sleep on these things?

Well… guess this’ll be a good experience. Something we can laugh about later.

Are you nervous?

Come on, you’re totally stiff.

Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. (Kiss)

This is it. That’s all.

[02:09]
Ah… no… but…

Honestly… deep down, I want you so badly. But right now, just having you say yes to my proposal is enough. I don’t want to rush this or push you into anything.

Don’t think you have to do this for my sake. It’s my first time too, and I’m sure I can wait.

[02:50]
Ah… ah… I see… you’ve always been… quick to make up your mind. Even now, you’re ready to give yourself to me…

I love you, only you. (Kiss)

[04:06]
Ah… no. I can’t… stop myself anymore.

I’ve always… wanted to touch you. Somewhere… where no one could disturb us.

I’ve wanted to touch and kiss every inch of you.

Does it hurt? It’s okay…

Ah…

I’m glad it feels good for you.

[05:45]
Yeah, let me kiss your chest. I want to hear the sounds you make when you feel good.

I’ve been dying to do this for so, so long.

Don’t be shy.

I love you more than I can stand.

Show me everything. Give me all of you. You’re mine and mine alone…

[07:46]
Open up your legs wider. Let me hear how good it feels to you.

Tasting you for the first time… feeling how sweet you’re…

I love you. Let me feel more of you.

God, you’re so sweet. You’re so precious to me.

I’m just so happy I can take my time loving you properly.

Hehe, I love you even when you’re shy like this. But don’t hide your face, let go of your hands. I can’t kiss you if you cover your face, right?

[10:34]
We’ve never been this close before… touching your bare skin for the first time…

Holding each other close like this… it’s like every inch of us is tingling with joy. I’ll never let you go again.

Your body, your heart, your soul… give everything to me. And I’ll give everything I am to you, too.

Ah, my very own… princess.

Hold on to me. Dig your nails in if you need to. Hold tight.

[12:57]
I love you.

Try to bear the pain… for me.

The pain… is proof that you gave your purity to me, and that makes you happy…

I’m really happy too. Finally touching you, becoming one with you. Feels like I’m dreaming, but I’m not.

I thought it might take time to get used to, but… if we keep holding hands, maybe it’ll be easier.

Our hands with the same marks…

Can I move… a little? I really can’t hold back anymore…

Thank you.

[15:46]
I can’t hold back anymore. I love you to death… God, I love you so much I just can’t…

So, let’s be happy this time, just you and me.

You’re about to come again, right?

Ah, let it all out. I’m… I’m also about to…

[17:44]
I love you.

I’m so blessed.

Not only have I become one with the person I love, but now I get to hold you while we sleep. And when I wake up tomorrow morning, you’ll still be here in my arms.

Yes, maybe we were lovers in our past lives, too. These matching marks… they’re proof that we have a connection stronger than anyone else in the world.

Cruelty

[00:08]
Seriously… You kept saying your place was too messy for me to visit, but it looks perfectly fine to me. And you were so stubborn about doing the move by yourself.

I’m glad I came to help. No way you could’ve managed all these old storage chests by yourself. It’s better to bring the important stuff over little by little anyway.

Huh? Bring whatever you want, really. Don’t hold back. I’ve prepared a room for you as well.

Haha, my parents are totally fine with it. Ever since they met you and gave us their blessing, they’ve been talking about you all the time. They really seem to like you. Almost makes me jealous.

[01:09]
Oh, right, you must have lots of mementos from your mom. You mentioned you couldn’t bring yourself to sort through her things after she passed.

Yeah, I’m glad you see this as a good chance to clean up. But hey, don’t feel like you have to throw anything away—I really don’t mind. You can always get rid of stuff later, but once it’s gone, you can never get it back.

Is that… a trunk with your mom’s stuff in it? Hmm… a photo? From when you were a baby?

Ah, you can really see that birthmark on your hand.

[02:21]
Wait… what? “Tadaomi, 3 months”… What’s going on? Why is there a photo of me?

No way… your mom got divorced while she was pregnant. That’s what you told me when we first met. And we both have the same birthmark… so you wondered if you had a long-lost brother. Back then, you wondered… if it could be me?

But you never heard anything about having an older brother or your mom having another son. So you figured you just imagined things and completely forgot about it. Your mom never talked about her previous marriage. She just mentioned that her family fell on hard times and her husband fell for another woman.

[03:54]
But… my dad never once said anything about my mom being his second wife…

That broken engagement he mentioned, the one that fell apart because of his company… that was actually his first marriage? Dad always said he never got married back then, but actually… it was to your mother…

And then he kept me, had his new wife pretend to be my real mom before I was old enough to remember… just so I’d bond with her…

[04:46]
I need to ask my parents.

No, they’ve been lying to me for twenty years. They’re not gonna just spill the truth that easily. And if it really is true…

Let’s go to the city hall and check the family registry.

(Scene switches)

[05:30]
Why…? Is this the punishment for committing a double suicide? Even though we had no idea, we’re… we have the same parents…?

I love you so much…

I wanted this so badly… We were supposed to get married with everyone’s blessing. Why…

Are you telling me to give up?

[06:34]
I can’t. We were finally going to be together… How can I possibly leave you?

Let’s just run away. Forget everything and live as a normal married couple somewhere far away.

For my… future…

Living a life of lies… is just like my parents…

You’re saying that kind of life would be too painful, that it’s wrong. That from now on, we should live as brother and sister…

I get it… if that’s what’s best for you…

Elopement

[00:13]
Hey there, you look beautiful, my princess.

Father’s such a terrible man. Forbidding me, your own brother, to come to your wedding.

Well, he probably figured I’d do something like this… (Kiss)

I guess this is his punishment because I couldn’t let go of my feelings for you. Forcing you to marry another guy like that.

After we suddenly broke up, he got suspicious, did some digging, and found out everything. Then he forced you to have this wedding at the shrine today.

But still, you’re just so beautiful. (Kiss)

[01:34]
I won’t let anyone take you away from me.

Let’s run away together, my princess.

Don’t worry, we won’t get caught. I’ve been working on my fighting skills—nobody’s going to stop us.

And you don’t have to keep saying it’s all for me. I know you’re only resisting for my sake, right? It’s okay, just stay quiet. I don’t want you to get hurt.

I’ve got our new place ready. It’s a lovely, modern western style apartment. You’re gonna love it.

Merry Bad End: Forever

[00:11]
The static is awful again tonight. I guess cheap stuff just doesn’t cut it, even though I spent all my savings on it..

Come to think of it, the evening glories were blooming beautifully again today. For some reason, the morning glories wilt almost immediately, but the evening glories always seem to thrive no matter where we move to.

It’s already been 10 years… I still remember you in that wedding dress… I talked you into running away with me to that apartment I’d prepared. You just nodded, changed quickly, and we fled together.

That apartment threw them off our trail for a while, helped us to get rid of my father’s guys. After that, we had to keep moving from town to town, never staying in one place too long.

But this town seems okay. The neighbors pretty much keep to themselves. Well, maybe it’s not the place, maybe it’s how things are these days. This new urban era we’re in—five years into Showa (1930) already.

Time seems to fly by… It never felt this fast until I met you.

Hehe, maybe we just feel that way ’cause we’re getting older? Hehe, you think so?

But more than that, I’m glad you seem to be doing better tonight. You’ve been pretty tired lately, right? Even after 10 years, my father just won’t quit. He must be so desperate to catch me and punish me, the shame of the family.

Anyway, today is our anniversary—the day we started living together. I got some wine to celebrate. Wanna join me?

[02:47]
Think you can handle it? Good. Here we go.

Sorry, it’s nothing fancy like you’d see in a western movie, just our usual cups…

Cheers. Here’s to many more years together.

Ah, that’s good. What do you think?

Easy to drink? Yeah, you’re right.

[03:33]
You know… that day… if you’d given up on me, if you hadn’t run away with me… Just the thought of it terrifies me. Thank you for accepting my feelings.

I swore to make you happy, but I’m sorry I’ve only brought you trouble. Always looking over our shoulders, keeping secrets from everyone. I’ve made your life so difficult.

For me, just having you by my side is enough. But you…

Well, I’m just glad that you’re feeling better. (Kiss)

[05:03]
I love you.

Let’s do it… right here.

No, I can’t hold back until we get to bed tonight.

Don’t be shy.

Got you. (Kiss)

Is it weird at our age? That I still want you so badly I can’t help myself?

[06:28]
Nah, it’s not weird at all.

I love you. I just love you so much that I can’t help it. That’s why…

Turn your face to me. (Kiss)

Since we’ve been living together, I’ve grown to love you even more.

One more time… look at me.

[07:59]
I love you. You’re my one and only, forever…

Are you about to come?

Alright. Tonight, just like every night, let yourself go as many times as you want.

It feels so good… my love, the sensation of you… coming…

[09:38]
I love you. And yet, I’m sorry for making you live this kind of life.

Let’s come together this time. I’ll tease your pleasure spots, too.

That was more intense than before.

Looks like you’re about to come again? Ahh, me too…

Come closer. Turn your face back. Let me kiss you.

I’m so happy to be with you. (Kiss)

(Fire alarm rings)

[12:32]
“I’m fine, just run”? What are you talking about?!

This old tenement would be burned to ashes if a bomb dropped nearby.

You’ve been bedridden all this time. Running’s impossible. Come on, I’ll carry you, so don’t resist.

You don’t want to run away anymore…

It’s true, we’ve finally settled down here. My father’s guys have stopped coming after us. But we’ll die if we stay!

[13:04]
Ah, the fire has reached the porch. The evening glories had just taken root… And the morning glories…

No. I’m not leaving without you. I won’t let you die alone. How could I possibly leave you behind, after everything you’ve been through because of me? (Kiss)

(Sound of fire crackling)

[13:51]
Hold my hand… both hands… and don’t let go.

Don’t cry. I’m the one who kept selfishly saying I wanted us together forever. So please, don’t apologize.

(Sound of window breaking)

Don’t… let go of my hand. (Kiss)

Let’s go together, with this kiss…

I love you…

For… ever… (Kiss)

(Sound of fire roaring)

Bad End: Farewell

[00:13]
What do you think? Nice modern apartment, right? I even ordered matching furniture. This sofa is made in Italy.

Let’s live here happily, as husband and wife. (Kiss)

You’re always worrying about me… you’ve been like that since forever. But don’t worry, I don’t want any life without you in it. I don’t even need to graduate from Imperial University, we’ll find a way to get by.

Being siblings or whatever… that doesn’t matter. If you really think about it, it shouldn’t be a problem at all. People have just always hated the idea. Saying stuff like, “It thickens the blood” and all that.

[01:24]
As long as we don’t have kids, we’ll be fine.

Huh? No? Don’t tell me… you’re thinking about that guy father set you up with?

Ah… no… th-that’s not acceptable… (kiss)

[02:07]
I won’t forgive that… I’ll make you forget about him immediately. It’s been a while since we’ve been together, ever since we broke up.

See, now you remember? That you only love me.

Hahaha… you remember, right? You’ve always loved only me, from long ago.

Don’t lie for my sake.

If it’s not a lie… are you saying that you really fell in love with another man?

[03:46]
Such beautiful blood. Your wedding dress stained with blood…

Is it because we have the same blood flowing through our veins? Your blood tastes so sweet…

I’ll give you my blood later. Ah… but first, I need to give you plenty of my seed.

I am coming too… It’s alright. Let’s come together, as one.

[05:18]
Last time too… that’s how we were reborn. Next life, we’ll be together with everyone’s blessing. Yes, next time, for sure.

What if we’re punished again? We’ll overcome it. And if we can’t, then in the life after that!

This is our… fate in this life…

Even so… I’m glad we made it this far.

I was a swordsman in my past life… so I won’t fail. We’ll definitely set out on this journey together.

(HOBiGIRLS) IF Bad End: Lie

I’m home.

The world’s a mess out there these days. You gotta make sure the doors are locked tight, even when you’re inside. Alright, that should do it.

I’m back, my love. Hehe, you’re so full of energy today. That makes me happy.

Come to think of it, this is the first time you’ve seen me in mourning clothes, right? Today, I went to your funeral.

Oh, have you forgotten already? We agreed to pretend that you were dead, remember?

That day, I took you away in your wedding dress and brought you to this apartment. A few days later, I told my father that we had attempted a double suicide at the lake, but only I survived. So even without a body, they held a funeral for you. They made up some story about you dying suddenly from illness.

It was all about keeping up appearances, I guess. It would’ve been a huge mess if the newspapers got wind of it. “Kirihara Securities Heir Goes Crazy, Kidnaps His Sister at Tanigawa Shrine” and all that. So, they told me to live alone somewhere until things cool down. That’s why we can stay here, just the two of us, without anyone bothering us.

No, everyone believed my story. People believe what they want to believe. They probably didn’t want to believe that I was in love with my own sister, so they jumped at a more convenient story.

Thank you for worrying about me, but there’s nothing in the way now. Neither my father nor the groom he chose can take you away from me anymore.

Oh, I see, these shackles and chains are heavy and uncomfortable, huh?

Can you put up with them just a little longer? I’m scared you might disappear somewhere. You were always so concerned about my future. No matter how many times I told you everything would work out, you wouldn’t agree. When I suggested running away, you kept saying it’d ruin my future, that I was so close to graduating from Imperial University.

I felt the depth of your love. Just as you wished, I graduated from college, joined my father’s company, and I’ll take over someday. You’ll live here comfortably with me, with nothing to worry about. Everything’s falling into place, so you don’t need to worry or stress about it. Yeah, until you completely trust me, let’s stay just like this.

Hmm… you look kind of grumpy. Aren’t you going to give me a kiss? Ah, I get it, you want me to kiss you somewhere else, right?

Sorry about that. I’ll give you lots of kisses, until you’re smiling again.

You’re struggling so much… your pajamas are slipping off. And now I can see your chest…

You’re tempting me with such a lewd look.

“No more?” Are you still shy about it? Yes, I’m your brother and your eternal lover. We are two people with the deepest bond in this world.

Hehe, you want me that much already? I wanted to caress your breasts a little longer, but I’m glad that you want me so much.

My love… there’s so much overflowing from the inside of you.

No one else can see you anymore. Only I can see your lovely figure, hear your voice, and touch you. Ah, such wonderful days will just continue from now on.

You must be happy, right? Ah, you don’t have to answer. I know you very well.

I can feel in every fiber of my being that you’re happy.

I’m about to let it out… deep inside you… I love you so much.

Ah… I’m coming…

I’ve already come, even though I haven’t brought you to your climax yet.

But I’m still hard, so let’s keep going, just like that…

(Years later)

I’m home.

The recession has made the world such a dangerous place. You never know when a kidnapper or a thief will show up.

I’m back, my one and only love.

Oh… oh dear, that’s not good. You’re sucking my dick as soon as I get home…

Sorry to keep you waiting, I got caught up with work today…

It’s been years since I joined the company, but I’m still stuck doing grunt work.

I really want to move up quickly so I can spend more time with you. But then again, you always wanted me to take my job seriously and become a respectable person. Alright… I’ll keep at it.

Come on… you tease me like that and then pull away? That’s just cruel.

I can’t hold back any longer… Ah, my love…

You spread your legs and invite me with your mouth dripping with saliva…

I’m about to come… My love… my sweet little darling, who belongs only to me and wants nothing but to be with me…

Tonight, let’s do it over and over. Together, just the two of us, until we go crazy…
