********PART 1*********

**Pg. 7**

Kasumi: Kazuki...you're going home?

Kazuki: Hm? Yeah, oh sorry, did I wake you? I can't stay over when I'm not even your boyfriend. Sorry...this might've been a little hard on you. Are you alright?

Kasumi: I'm fine.

**Pg. 8**

Kasumi's thoughts: I'm doing such a horrible thing to you and you still worry about me.

Kasumi: Kazuki, I...I'm sorry...

Kazuki: Kasumi. Why don't you go to New York to visit your mom?

Kasumi: What?

Kazuki: You might feel refreshed after 1 or 2 weeks. Maybe you can be at peace once you see your mom's face.

**Pg. 9**

Kasumi: Kazuki...?

Kazuki: I can go with you if you want. Maybe you can forget as time goes by. Good night.

**Pg. 10**

Kasumi: W...wait! Don't say it so easily! What do you know!?

**Pg. 11**

Kasumi: No matter how much I love him and want to be with him, I can't. I know I should forget about him, but I can't! Even though I know I'm doing something foolish...I'll always...always...

**Pg. 12**

Kasumi: ...always...

Kazuki's words: "I've always loved you, Kasumi" "Tell me how I can forget about you"

**Pg. 13**

Kazuki: I've known that for 13 years.

//doku// [Kasumi's heart thumps]

Kazuki: Kasumi, if you have any hate towards me, tell me that you don't like me.

Kasumi's thoughts: Kazuki...

Kazuki: If you tell me that you'll never love me, then I feel like I can give up on you.

**Pg. 14**

Kazuki: If you like me even a little, say it.

Kasumi's thoughts: He's felt this way for 13 years.

Kazuki: Kasumi.

Kasumi: ...I...don't like you.

Kazuki: Say it louder!

**Pg. 15**

Kasumi: ...I don't like you!

//dokun// [Kasumi's heart thumps]

Kazuki: Say, "I will never love you. I don't even want to see your face"

Kasumi: I...I will never love you...I don't...even want to see your face...

**Pg. 16**

Kazuki: I still love you a lot.

Kasumi's thoughts: Why?

**Pg. 17**

Kasumi's thoughts: Why am I not in need of these sweet, sweet arms that are like syrup? I know I'll be at ease, but I won't take his hands.

**Pg. 18**

Kasumi's thoughts: Why...?

Kyoko: Sister!

**Pg. 19**

Kasumi: Kyoko-san...

Kyoko: Are you done with your classes for today? I came to pick you up.

Kasumi: Pick me up?

Kyoko: You told me that you'll give me Yoshiki back, right?

**Pg. 20**

Kyoko: Can you please prove it...?

Yoshiki's friend: We haven't seen you in awhile, Kasumi-chan. We haven't seen you since that one time you came to see Yoshiki off before we left on the excavation trip to Saga. Yeah, that time, I was really interested in you.

**Pg. 21**

Yoshiki's friend: I was going to get approval from Yoshiki, but he told me that he was going to "kill me". How scary!

Yoshiki's friend 2: I can understand why Kyoko-san gets jealous with Yoshiki's attachment to his sister. Or maybe Yoshiki just hates you.

Kasumi's thoughts: Oh, I see. This is what she means. She wants me to be a "sister" in front of everyone.

Kyoko: But I'm thankful to Yoshiki's sister. Because I've learned how much I love Yoshiki ever since his sister appeared.

**Pg. 22**

Yoshiki's friend: Alrighty then! Kasumi-chan, say something to this lovey-dovey couple!

Kasumi: Don't worry, Kyoko-san, Yoshiki only thinks of you.

Kasumi's thoughts: Oh no, my voice just changed.

**Pg. 23**

Yoshiki: But don't hold my hand underneath the table, alright?

//pa// [Yoshiki lets his hand go]

Kyoko: Geez, Yoshiki, don't tell everyone. You're so mean!

Yoshiki's friend: Let him go on that one, Kyoko-chan. Men are embarassed about those kind of things.

Yoshiki: It's hard to eat and it's annoying.

Kyoko: You're not romantic at all.

Yoshiki's friends: You guys are in your own world! Ha ha ha...

**Pg. 24**

//dokin// [Kasumi's heart thumps]

**Pg. 25**

Kasumi's thoughts: No way...

//dokin dokin// [Kasumi's heart beating]

Kasumi's thoughts: I can't let go because of his strength...

Kasumi {whispering}: No, Yoshiki. Let go. Yoshiki! I'm going to New York to go see Mom. Kazuki told me that this might make me sane.

**Pg. 26**

Kasumi {whispering}: Yoshiki, let's be a normal family.

Yoshiki {whispering}: New York, huh? That's going to be no good anyway. The fortune-teller in Kyoto told you...

**Pg. 27**

Yoshiki {whispering}: That we're destined to be together.

//kura// [Kasumi getting dizzy]

//dokin dokin// [Kasumi's heart beating]

Kasumi's thoughts: He was teasing me that time.

**Pg. 28**

Yoshiki: New York...

Kasumi's thoughts: I have to hurry to New York as fast as I can so I can know what's right and wrong with my feelings.

**Pg. 29**

{New York}

**Pg. 30**

Kasumi's mom's co-worker: Yuka! You have a visitor. A young man from Japan.

**Pg. 31**

Kasumi's mom's co-worker: Maybe it's your son that you were talking about?

Kasumi's mom: Yoshiki?

Kasumi's mom's co-worker: Right, right. He's waiting in the lobby, so hurry to him.

//chin// [elevator stops]

//gaaaa// [elevator opens]

Kasumi's mom: I'm here...oh...

**Pg. 32**

Kasumi's mom: Kazuki-kun!?

Kazuki: Sorry to come here all of a sudden. I came to see Kasumi.

Kasumi's mom: What? Kasumi? What are you talking about? She's not here.

{Rome - Foro Romano}

**Pg. 33**

Kasumi: I came. The place where I first met Yoshiki...

Kasumi's thoughts: Instead of seeing Mom, I wanted to come to the place where Yoshiki and I first met.

Kasumi //kusu// [lightly laughs]: If I told Kazuki, I'm sure he would be against it.

**Pg. 34**

Kasumi: I came here after Shinoki-san broke up with me and met Yoshiki. Maybe I can meet someone else.

Italian Man (in Italian): You fool!

Kasumi's thoughts: That scared me. Oh, they're having another excavation operation. I'm fine because I'm paying attention to the "no trespassing". I thought Yoshiki was scolding me again.

**Pg. 35**

Yoshiki's words: "Hurry up and leave. You're in the way" "I got fired yesterday from the ancient excavation job" "...what's with you? You're so troublesome that I can't leave you alone"

**Pg. 36**

Kasumi's thoughts: Like this, I'm going to remember the memories one by one. To tell myself that I'm alone. And I can forget as time goes on. The next time I see someone, I'm going to love him withouht being afraid.

**Pg. 41**

//gasyaaan// [Yoshiki slams into the gates]

Yoshiki: Sister....!

Kasumi: Why...?

**Pg. 42**

Kasumi: Why are you here? Why aren't you in Japan...?

Yoshiki: There was an opening for an excavation job, so I came here. Why are you here? What about New York? And Mom? Why are you in Foro Romano?

Kasumi's thoughts: I came here to forget about you. Not to see you. I decided. I decided, but...

**Pg. 43**

Kasumi's thoughts: That I was going to love someone without being afraid...

Yoshiki's boss (in Italian): Yoshiki! What are you slacking for!? Do you want to get fired!?

Yoshiki: I have to go back. Which hotel are you staying at? I'll go later.

Kasumi: Oh...

**Pg. 44**

Yoshiki: Sister, put your face closer and stick out your tongue. If you don't, I can't kiss you.

**Pg. 45**

Yoshiki's boss: Yoshiki!

Yoshiki: I cannot let you go without doing anything when we've met at a place like this. Hurry.

Kasumi's thoughts: I can't do this.

Yoshiki's boss: Yoshiki!

Kasumi's thoughts: I came here to finish things with you. This time, I was going to let go of your hand.

**Pg. 47**

Kasumi's thoughts: What else can I do...?

**Pg. 48**

Kasumi's thoughts: What am I supposed to do?

Kasumi: I'm not that strong...

Kasumi's thoughts: Someone tell me...if this isn't...

**Pg. 49**

Kasumi's thoughts: If this isn't destiny, what is it...?

*******Part 2*******

**Pg. 50**

Kasumi's thoughts: I went to Rome, the place full of memories, to forget about Yoshiki. It was the first time I met Yoshiki and I saw him again. It was like someone was telling me, "Don't deny destiny"....

**Pg. 51**

Yoshiki's words: "Which hotel are you staying at? I'll go later"

Kasumi's thoughts: I told him...What did I come all the way to Rome for? It's to forget about Yoshiki. Even if Yoshiki comes, I will not see him.

**Pg. 52**

Kasumi's thoughts: I can't see him...

Man (in Italian): Excuse me.

Kasumi: Oh...um...it's alright. Hey...! My bag! No, wait! No way...!

Kasumi's thoughts: He got me!

**Pg. 53**

Kasumi: I'm glad I had the front desk hold my passport. I lost my make-up pouch and about 3500 yen in cash. It's 12:30...

Kasumi's thoughts: Yoshiki never came. I told myself that I wasn't going to see him, but I feel betrayed when he really doesn't come.

Kasumi: I'm gonna go take a shower.

**Pg. 54**

//kara// [Kasumi turns the shower knob]

Kasumi: Hm? Nothing's coming out...

//zaaaaa// [shower starts]

Kasumi: Ah! Geez, there's rust mixed in. These cheap tours that provide the hotels...

Kasumi's thoughts: I'm tired.

**Pg. 55**

Kasumi's thoughts: I want to forget about Yoshiki, but I see him. My bag was stolen. He said he was going to come, but doesn't. I'm this drenched. I can't speak the language, so I can't even switch rooms. I'll be even more miserable if I cry, but I feel like I'm going to start crying.

//gashya// [window shatters]

**Pg. 56**

Kasumi's thoughts: Is it this afternoon's purse snatcher?

//doku// [Kasumi's heart thumps]

Kasumi's thoughts: Oh no, that time I was lost, I wrote the hotel's address on a piece of paper and left it in my wallet...this is the second floor, so he could easily...easily...I'm really...

//dokun dokun// [Kasumi's heart beating hard]

**Pg. 57**

Kasumi's thoughts: I might really get killed....

Yoshiki: Sister?

**Pg. 58**

Yoshiki: Are you hurt? Sorry, I put too much power into it and broke the window.

Kasumi's thoughts: Yoshiki?

Yoshiki: This hotel shuts the gates at 12 to prevent crime. I'm going to apologize up front. Wh...what are you crying for!?

Kasumi's thoughts: Yoshiki, Yoshiki, Yoshiki.

**Pg. 59**

Kasumi's thoughts: My tear gland broke the minute I saw Yoshiki.

Yoshiki: It's no good. There's no other vacant rooms. We'll just have to go to another hotel. Do you want to come to my room?

**Pg. 60**

Yoshiki: Sorry there's not much room. This is where all the guys from the excavation job sleep over at, so it's like a boarding house.

Kasumi: This is kinda weird. We don't even live together in Japan, but now we're like this...

Kasumi's thoughts: Sleeping together...

**Pg 61**

Yoshiki: Sister, this afternoon when I saw you, I thought I was daydreaming. I was thinking that I had a serious injury. But it was reality. I'm not like you, but at that time, I thought maybe there is such a thing as destiny.

**Pg. 62**

Yoshiki: I was thinking that I will believe in destiny if it's for you...

Kasumi's thoughts: Even for a bedtime story, it was sweet and private. It was so sweet that it was enough to numb my feelings...

//PRRRRR// [phone ringing]

//gachya// [phone picks up]

**Pg. 63**

Answering machine: Noone is available at the moment. Please leave a message at the beep...

//gachya// [Kazuki hangs up]

Kazuki: You said that you were going to New York, so I came too. Kasumi, where did you go?

**Pg. 64**

//gachya// [Kasumi closes her suitcase]

Yoshiki's words: "Sister, let's eat together for lunch. Be at the entrance of Foro Romano at 1"

Kasumi's thoughts: Sorry, Yoshiki. I can't be lingering around like this. I've decided to stay away from you.

Kasumi: ...Hm?

**Pg. 65**

Kasumi: Yoshiki!

Yoshiki: Sister, you're pretty early.

Kasumi: N...no! Do you know where my passport is!?

Yoshiki: We put both of ours in the safe.

Kasumi: Yeah, but mine's missing!

Yoshiki: Why do you need the passport now anyway?

Kasumi: Oh...well, that's because...

Kasumi's thoughts: Oh no...

Kasumi: Well...

**Pg. 66**

Kasumi: My passport!?

Yoshiki: I knew you would be doing this. You were going to go back to Japan without telling me, right?

Kasumi's thoughts: Because...

Yoshiki's boss (in Italian): Yoshiki, you were with her yesterday too. Introduce her.

Yoshiki (in Italian): It's my girlfriend, Kasumi.

Yoshiki: He's Professor Antinori and he's the director of this excavation. I just introduced you as my girlfriend, Kasumi.

Kasumi: What...!

**Pg. 67**

Kasumi: NO! NO! This is my brother! He is my brother!

Kasumi's thoughts: I don't know any Italian. I only know basic English. I wonder if he understood.

Yoshiki's boss (in Italian): Yoshiki, you're girlfriend's really shy, isn't she? Is that all Japanese?

Kasumi's thoughts: Because it's the truth.

**Pg. 68**

Kasumi's thoughts: I can't help it...

Kasumi: Yoshiki, I told you to wait.

Kasumi's thoughts: He's mad.

Kasumi: Yoshiki...

{Italian guy starts to hit on Kasumi}

Kasumi: No! No!

{Italian guy keeps on bothering her}

Kasumi's thoughts: Geez, he's so annoying!

**Pg. 69**

Kasumi's thoughts: Yoshiki, help me...

Kasumi: Yoshiki!

Yoshiki: I'm just your little brother, so I don't have the right to stop you. You should do what you want.

//doku// [Kasumi's heart thumps]

Kasumi: No! Let me go!

Kasumi's thoughts: Yoshiki!

Kasumi: Let me go!

**Pg. 70**

//ga// [Yoshiki hits the man]

Yoshiki: Run!

**Pg. 71**

Kasumi's thoughts: This happened before too. We ran like this into the alley. I didn't know anything at that time.

**Pg. 72**

Kasumi's thoughts: Not only that he was my brother, but I didn't even know his name. I wish I could go back to that time I didn't know anything...

**Pg. 73**

{Japan. At T-University}

Kyoko: Professor Antinori?

**Pg. 74**

Kyoko: I remember him. He's your friend, right? Doesn't he live in Rome...?

Kyoko's father: Yes, they're working on an excavation in Foro Romano right now and Yoshiki's there doing the job as well. I guess he remembered me talking about him before.

Kyoko: Yoshiki?

Kyoko's father: Yes, and he even said that Yoshiki's with "his girlfriend that small and cute". He must be mistaking Kasumi-san as Yoshiki's lover.

Kyoko: His sister is with him...?

Kasumi's words: "I'll give you back Yoshiki"

//gushya// [Kyoko crumbles the paper]

**Pg. 75**

//pi// [Kazuki's computer turns on]

Kyoko's e-mail: Yoshiki and his sister are together in Rome right now.

Kazuki: You're kidding...right? Because Kasumi told me that she'd forget...this can't be true...

**Pg. 76**

//ban// [Kazuki hits the wall]

Kazuki: WHY!? You said that you would forget!

**Pg. 77**

Kazuki: Do you know what you're doing, Kasumi? You guys are true siblings...! I thought you were going to your mom's place to tell right from wrong. There's no way to stop them...!?

//dokun// [Kazuki's heart thumps]

**Pg. 78**

Kasumi: They won't come anymore if we've came all this way.

Yoshiki: I'm glad I knew this area of Rome. I don't know where to run to if it was somewhere else.

Kasumi: I wonder what would've happened if I went to New York, as I planned in the first place.

Yoshiki: Don't say it so nonchalantly. It was a lot of trouble switching flights the same day in Narita.

**Pg. 79**

Kasumi: Yoshiki? What do you mean you changed your flight the same day? You were going to come to Rome in the first place, right? Yoshiki.

**Pg. 80**

Yoshiki: It's not coincidence and it's definitely not destiny. I knew to begin with. I saw you in Narita at the flight to Rome. I came too. I was going to New York at first because you said you were going.

Yoshiki's words: "For you..."

Kasumi: But...we met in Foro Romano...

**Pg. 81**

Yoshiki: They're always doing excavations there. And I knew that you'd be there.

Yoshiki's words: "I thought I could believe in destiny too"

Kasumi: You told me that it's like destiny. That there might be. You said that, right?

Yoshiki: You're so cute. You believed in such a thing as destiny. It's annoying.

**Pg. 82**

Yoshiki: You're just drunk off of this "destiny" and "real love" crap! You have to have those words to like someone? You need something like that to back you up, or else you can't go forward, so I acted like I believed in it.

Kasumi: That's mean...you tricked me? Why do you lie to me?

**Pg. 83**

Yoshiki: Because I want you!

**Pg. 84**

Yoshiki: I'll say any lie to get you back. I can easily trick you. I can be any kind of devil! So please don't be scared. Please understand that you can't let go.

**Pg. 85**

//don// [Kasumi pushes Yoshiki]

//bashya// [the both fall in the water fountain]

Kasumi: Don't make fun of me...I don't like you...I hate you.

**Pg. 86**

Kasumi's mom: Hey, Kazuki-kun, we've just been staring at each other for the past 30 minutes. I came because you said you had something important to tell me. I've already told you a thousand times that Kasumi isn't in New York. I haven't even heard from her saying that she's coming here. If you've come here for her, go back home. You're taking off school, right?

**Pg. 87**

Kasumi's mom: I'm sorry, but I'm going to leave. I'm pretty busy...

Kazuki: Kasumi is....! Kasumi and Yoshiki-kun aren't siblings.

Kasumi's mom: What are you talking about? I'm there mother. Of course they're siblings.

Kazuki: Yes, but...! I want to laugh and say that it's a joke, but...They're real siblings, but that's not what I'm talking about.

**Pg. 88**

Kasumi's mom: Kazuki-kun...

Kasumi: I hate you...

**Pg. 89**

Kasumi: Why are you acting like you're the only bad one? Stop talking like you're the only one who feels that way! I...I too love you. I love you so much that I don't know what to do.

**Pg. 90**

Kasumi: Why...were you born as my little brother?

Yoshiki: Sorry.

Kasumi: This is wrong.

Yoshiki: I know.

Kasumi: We'll probably get a divine punishment.

Yoshiki: Probably.

**Pg. 91**

Kasumi's thoughts: This time...if we touch each other...

Kazuki: Kasumi and Yoshiki-kun are...the 2 are...

**Pg. 92**

Kazuki: Are in a relationship as a man and a woman.
