Hanasaku-Blooming (Flower) (I could be wrong about the translation for this, but it's somewhat close.)
#01 - Motion: She was constant, always moving forward, never looking back.
#02 - Cool: He didn’t care that he might look like a loser because she gave him that special smile that was meant for only him.
#03 - Young: They knew that youth wasn’t eternal, but it still frightened them when she found out she was expecting.
#04 - Last: She didn’t think that they’d be dating for any time longer than a year, but somehow, they made it past a year’s mark.
#05 - Wrong: “It’s done like this, not like that.”
#06 - Gentle: His hand, the one he used to pitch, was tenderly stroking her cheek.
#07 - One: “You’re the only one I love,” he whispered.
#08 - Thousand: He smiled warmly as they stood in front of Sadako’s statue, looking at the paper cranes that hung in honor of her.
#09 - King: If he was a king, would that make her a queen?
#10 - Learn: “You’re a really good tutor,” he whispered to her.
#11 - Blur: He doesn’t really remember what happened during those nine months, but he suddenly finds himself pacing, waiting for the child to be born, and for his wife to be okay.
#12 - Wait: “Ch-Chotto, chotto matte kudasai!”
#13 - Change: He didn’t know when exactly it happened, but she started to look more like a woman shortly after they started dating.
#14 - Command: He wanted to be able to control her, to be able to say what she could do and when she could do it, but he wouldn’t do that if only because she was too precious to lose.
#15 - Hold: He would sometimes find himself longing to have her in his arms, for her blushing as he whispered words of love into her ear.
#16 - Need: It was a weird feeling, needing her to be near him.
#17 - Vision: Sometimes, people would praise her boyfriend for having good eyesight, but she thinks that he’s blind to everything.
#18 - Attention: It didn’t matter to him that everyone avoided her-in fact, it made it more bearable, as there was less competition for her affections.
#19 - Soul: “Would you risk your soul to be with me, forever?”
#20 - Picture: It’s been a few years since he dug up the items in his storage unit, and now he remembers why-he buried all memories of the dead woman he loved in here (including her portrait).
#21 - Fool: It was stupid of him to think that he could hold her in the way she held him-his hold was weak, breakable, while hers was one of iron.
#22 - Mad: She sometimes worried about his sanity, balancing on a precarious edge, but she couldn’t find it in herself to be horrified of it because that was part of who he was.
#23 - Child: “I think she should be named Shirley, after that famous child in America.”
#24 - Now: She doesn’t bother to think of the future, not when she has to move on from this moment-it’s too painful to think of the future.
#25 - Shadow: She could see it haunting him, the shadow of his gaze suddenly more pronounced than before.
#26 - Goodbye: How many times did he try to say good-bye-the same amount of times he’s failed to follow it through.
#27 - Hide: He didn’t like doing this-it felt like running-but he knew that if he were to go back, he would get into even more trouble than its worth.
#28 - Fortune: He finds himself wondering about how he was able to keep that special person to himself-his own personal treasure.
#29 - Safe: “It’s okay, Sawako,” he crooned as she shivered.
#30 - Ghost: “You don’t honestly believe she can see and command ghost, do you?!”
#31 - Book: He was quite shocked to see her engrossed in that book-he would have to ask about the appeal of (gay) sparkly vampires later on.
#32 - Eye: She could never look him in the eye for too long, or else she’d start blushing a bright red color.
#33 - Never: “No, I wasn’t afraid of you-I never was.”
#34 - Sing: Karaoke wasn’t the best activity in his mind, but he didn’t care as long as she was happy.
#35 - Sudden: He wasn’t expecting the news, he didn’t think it would happen so quickly, but he just found out that he was a widow.
#36 - Stop: “Please, don’t go any farther!”
#37 - Time: “We’ll have each other forever and ever, right Sawako?”
#38 - Wash: “I’ll wash your back,” she said suddenly, bushing.
#39 - Torn: He didn’t know whether or not he should be amused at her recent attempt to make more friends.
#40 - History: “We haven’t known each other for long, but I would like to change that.”
#41 - Power: He wanted to control every aspect of her life, but he would step back and let her have control until she allowed him to take the controls.
#42 - Bother: He knew he shouldn’t be jealous, but he was, and it bothered him.
#43 - God: “I am not an almighty God.”
#44 - Wall: He was really tempted to break the fourth wall if only to save himself the heartbreak he would have to go through.
#45 - Naked: “No, we cannot be in the same tub together!”
#46 - Drive: He smiled to himself, humming a cheerful tune, as she suddenly turned bright red, finally getting the meaning behind his words-she wasn’t able to deny the plausibility, but it would be irresponsible to have car sex.
#47 - Harm: “I would never hurt you, little one~”
#48 - Precious: He loved her, he wanted to be the only one for her, but he couldn’t allow his selfishness to destroy his efforts.
#49 - Hunger: Once he started, she wanted more and more, and the craving never stopped, to her embarrassment.
#50 - Believe: She believed him when he said he liked her, but she didn’t think it meant he loved her.
