LOVERS AGAIN
original Japanese by sayoo_st2
translated to English by hibimaosuki

*******

It's early,
the first fall of snow this year.

I wear a muffler that a former girlfriend had given me as a present
And go out into the snow.

A sky-blue muffler
She made with her own hands.

Since the day I broke up with her...
How many years has passed?

I, Watanabe Daisuke, am still marked by that pain.

Seven years ago...

After the university graduation ceremonies,
I said to her, "Let's break up..."
Right around the time I realized I wanted to be an actor.

She cried, "You want to achieve your dream away from home, huh."
And as her tears fell, she sent me off with one last smile.

"Goodbye"
My parting words
And she, without saying anything, determinedly smiled
And waved.

Three years to the day we separated
I became an actor and fulfilled my dream
And I
Met her at today's class reunion.

Meeting each other again after four long years
"I'm okay now," she said to me.

Since we broke up
The me who has regret it so many times
I felt all the pain disappear in a flash.

If there really is such a thing as destiny
Such a thing as second chances, second encounters
Then I'd want us to be happy together.

But,
After that reunion,
We never saw each other again.

Eventually, I
Came to stop believing in destiny.

That's right, leaving pain to the course of time
I believed it wasn't just "fate".

And the me who doesn't believe in destiny,
One day, out of the blue,

After an audition,
At the kao-awase for the project called TeniMyu.

"Oh no! I'm gonna be late!"
a high-school student running without looking infront of him crashes into me.

"Ow-ow-ow-ow... I'm sorry! I'm really, really sorry... Are you okay?"
"Ah... Don't worry, I'm okay. Actually, are you okay?"
"It kinda hurts," he answers with a bashful smile.

... Too honest~!
I wonder if he's really like this.
Even though it's better for him to say that he's alright... As I think this,
I finally laugh.

"I'm sorry, I have something to do, so I'll be off..."
"Right, right, go ahead."

Huh... He's young, and a nice kid.
Shouldn't I also be in a hurry?

I tell myself this, and
Look at my wristwatch... "Oh crap! Only three minutes left!"

Ha-- ha-- ha--
Made it! I open the door.

"Ah, aren't you from a while ago...?" That high school student gets up from his seat.
"You!?" I say, surprised.

"You know each other?" the boss asks him.
And he answers, "I collided with him earlier."

Everyone in the room laughs.
But the kid's facial expression clearly asks, "What's so funny?"

... Cute.
That time, in that one moment
The word "destiny" floated to the surface of my mind.

The boss says, "Everyone, since this is your first time meeting each other,
You'll all introduce yourselves... Let's start with the captain, Tezuka Kunimutsu... Go ahead."

"Playing the role of Tezuka Kunimitsu, I'm Watanabe Daisuke.
Um, looking at everyone's faces, I'm probably the oldest here, but
Please call me Dai-chan all the same. Yoroshiku onegai shimasu!"

Then
Everyone laughs
And after me is the one playing the main character... the one playing the vice-captain... Then... that kid.

"Playing the role of Kikumaru Eiji, I'm Hamao Kyousuke.
Eh... Buchou! I'm really sorry for running into you earlier~!"

What an interesting kid...
I laugh, and reply with "Don't let your guard down!"

A year after that day
And once more, fate played its hand.

The role of Gii in the movie Takumi-kun Series II,
I auditioned for and got it, and, again, on the day of the kao-awase...

"Buchou!? What are you doing here?"
"How are we going to have a meeting of all the cast members if Gii isn't around?"

That's right... A year has passed
And we've been getting along very well.

"Then, what about you?"

"I'm playing Morita."

"I see... Gonna be raburabu with Basshi, huh~"

"Not raburabu... That... Stop that~"
Mao says with a bitter smile.

"Of course it's raburabu, if it isn't, what else would it be?"
Mao's distressed face is really cute, so... It's so much fun to tease him.
Maybe... I actually like Mao.

"Mou, Buchou!"

... And suddenly,
The director Yokoi-san tells us, "No, Hamao Kyousuke-kun is playing Hayama Takumi."

"Eh? Director-san... I got a call from the staff, if I remember correctly, it was Morita Tooru..."

"There's been a change of plans."

"Eh? Really? Since when...?"

"When I saw you two talking just a second ago."

"D--Director-san..."
I address him out of suprise.
Mao's normally pale face meets me eye-to-eye
And he blushes.

... Cute.
Really cute.

Since the last time I was in love...
I would never fall in love with anyone else... I thought.
But now that old feeling of passion and enthusiasm has awoken within me.

"So... you and I will be raburabu?"

"I... guess so."

A year later...

Bibbiri... Bibbiri... Bibbiri...

"From Mao
Buchou! I'm sorry for not going to watch, but I'm cheering you on ♥"

That's right...
Even after we finished filming the movie,
We're still in love.

Tonight,
It's as cold as if the snow has already fallen.
And I want to enfold tightly in my arms the one that I love.

The me who was able to love someone again,
I will never let go of him, I won't hesitate anymore.
There is no one I love more than Mao.

"Dai-chan... Hold me tight."

Without saying anything, I open my arms
And hold my beloved Mao close to me.
