Marmalade Boy THE SHAPE OF LOVE IT’S DIFFICULT TO BE HAPPY.
She’s getting married? Hey, no one’s supposed to know, it’s still a secret. Wow, that’s incredible , you’ve got guts But last I heard you and Mr. Namura were through, I don't get it It was Miki actually , there’s no way I could’ve done it without her really Come on. Well, awfully sophisticated for a klutz like you Hey Wow, that means you’re gonna be engaged, all right, that's the greatest , let’s throw a party A real blow-out Right, great idea. What are you guys talking about? Yeah, it’s obvious you’re all so happy We were talking about a farewell party for the seniors , that’s all It’s hard to believe that graduation is almost here. Hey, don't forget the tennis team’s having a party, too. Well, I’m off to the library Boy, Meiko seems awfully happy these days You think she got more good news or something Hey, Mei… What an idiot , there’s nothing I could possibly say to her anyway Even though it was tough, I’d have to say they’re all good memories now I’m lucky it all worked out so I’m able to realize that. Nice serve, just remember that. That’s how you want to do it, Miki Right. That’s good, but keep your arm closer to your body Wow, Miss Ryouko is really something I know if I saw something like that, I don't know, I would’ve been crushed, but look at her, she seems completely fine just like she always does. Miki. Oh, hi, Meiko Your practice’s almost over, isn’t it? Do you wanna leave together ? Okay. Okay, that’s it, So, you’re still planning to go to college after you guys get married aren’t you? You’ll also be writing, too, won’t you? Um-hum And if you decide to have a baby on top of that? Imagine how busy you’re gonna be I couldn’t possibly do that all at once Are you out of your mind? I think I’ve got enough going on trying to write a novel or going to school So that will do for now, I’ll have to think about the rest. Wow, Meiko I just can’t believe you got your future all figured out like that already I thought I was going to find out what I wanted to do when I was in college and then I’d come up with the plan for how to go about it. What’s wrong with that? I think you’re gonna be fine. I guess, it’s just a little weird , Yuu’s already decided he wants to be an architect Well, don't let it bother you, life’s a very long journey , take your time Meiko, you’re already beginning to sound like an old woman Oh, I must have gotten that from Na-chan But it does make me wonder Well if it’s fair that I’m the only one who gets to be happy right now? I just can’t help thinking about how I hurt Satoshi and Miss Ryouko When I think about it, maybe I shouldn’t be so happy about the way it turned out. Meiko. I suppose it’s just not that easy for everyone to be happy I know it really hurt Ginta and Arimi when Yuu and I started going out, and I felt terrible about it, but Look at what happened , they found each other and they both seem really happy So don't worry, I’m sure Satoshi and Miss Ryouko will be okay, they will both find somebody , they’re both too wonderful , they’re not gonna go unnoticed forever Miki. Hi, is Takuji in ? Yeah. Oh, hey, Ryouko. I just needed to talk to you, so I thought I’d come by Hey, boss I’m sure I can handle the place alone if you want to take off now. Thanks Isn’t that right? You went to Hiroshima I guess Namura already filled you in, huh? That must’ve been tough Yeah, I suppose it was, but then again, I guess I’m actually relieved about it in a way, since I know my crush doesn’t have a chance now , wow, that’s it I feel a lot better without all those silly expectations Do you really think you’re gonna be able to rational [9 56] it away? Look, I’ve been hanging around with you two for a long time, so I know you a bit better than that. Even back when you were going out with me, I could tell you were falling for Namura So then I just waft When I got back from America , I could see that you still felt the same way about him So I rooted for you I probably shouldn't have You know you’re supposed to cry when you’re feeling sad and stopped playing the role of the considerate woman all the time, give yourself a break and stopped playing the role of the considerate woman all the time, give yourself a break hello, Ryouko? Oh, hi. I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am. I winded up abusing our friendship and I feel awfully bad about that I really don't expect you to accept my apology Please don't apologize okay? But… When Meiko found us out on the street that night and you lied to her about dating me, I have to admit, it did give me some hope, hope that you and I would finally be getting together after all this time, but I was being selfish , it was just a bit of wishful thinking So you didn’t really lie to me You were trying to do what you thought was best for Meiko , that’s all It wasn’t anybody’s fault It just wasn’t meant to be Ryouko Something like this isn’t going to make me lose heart, I’ll be okay. I’ve still got teaching and I’ve got my students, I’ll get to fulfill a dream that you weren’t able to So, please, don't worry about me anymore. I see Well. Best of luck then You, too Okay, goodbye I’m so stupid , what’s the matter with me Am I just gonna keep on lying to myself forever like that, I should’ve at least been honest and cried my heart out to him.

Hey, no one’s supposed to know, it’s still a secret.
Wow, that’s incredible , you’ve got guts
But last I heard you and Mr. Namura were through, I don't get it
It was Miki actually , there’s no way I could’ve done it without her really
Come on.
Well, awfully sophisticated for a klutz like you
Hey
Wow, that means you’re gonna be engaged, all right, that's the greatest , let’s throw a party
A real blow-out
Right, great idea.
What are you guys talking about?
Yeah, it’s obvious you’re all so happy
We were talking about a farewell party for the seniors , that’s all
It’s hard to believe that graduation is almost here.
Hey, don't forget the tennis team’s having a party, too.
Well, I’m off to the library
Boy, Meiko seems awfully happy these days
You think she got more good news or something
Hey, Mei…
What an idiot , there’s nothing I could possibly say to her anyway
Even though it was tough, I’d have to say they’re all good memories now
I’m lucky it all worked out so I’m able to realize that.
Nice serve, just remember that.
That’s how you want to do it, Miki
Right.
That’s good, but keep your arm closer to your body
Wow, Miss Ryouko is really something

Um-hum
And if you decide to have a baby on top of that?
Imagine how busy you’re gonna be
I couldn’t possibly do that all at once
Are you out of your mind?
I think I’ve got enough going on trying to write a novel or going to school
So that will do for now, I’ll have to think about the rest.
Wow, Meiko
I just can’t believe you got your future all figured out like that already
I thought I was going to find out what I wanted to do when I was in college and then I’d come up with the plan for how to go about it.

I think you’re gonna be fine.
I guess, it’s just a little weird , Yuu’s already decided he wants to be an architect
Well, don't let it bother you, life’s a very long journey , take your time
Meiko, you’re already beginning to sound like an old woman
Oh, I must have gotten that from Na-chan
But it does make me wonder
Well if it’s fair that I’m the only one who gets to be happy right now?
