- HIKARU-CHAN? THE NOISY "C" EXPERIENCE
- =======================================================================
- [KYOSUKE IN BED, HAVING FLASHBACKS]
- KYOSUKE:
- (Today, I had a date with Hikaru-chan, but I bumped into Ayukawa,
- and this and that happened and...
- ...and I was so happy that I could be with Ayukawa. That was my
- reason for being late for the date, and...
- ...by the time I noticed, I ended up catching cold, and couldn't
- sleep at all.)
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Jingoro, water. Water.
-
- CAT:
- Meow.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Okay, I'll use the power. (THE EFFORT TO FLOAT A CARTON OF MILK
- OUT OF THE FRIDGE IS TOO MUCH FOR HIM) Can't use even that much
- of the Power? It's pretty bad.
-
- [KITCHEN]
- KYOSUKE: (HEARS DOORBELL)
- Hm? Who could that be? The Old Man should be doing an
- all-nighter. (GOES TO AND OPENS DOOR) Huh? Hikaru-chan?!
-
- HIKARU:
- Waah! Sempai.
-
- (KYOSUKE DROPS CARTON, SPILLING THE MILK)
-
- HIKARU:
- I didn't notice where I was walking, and by the time I realised,
- I was here.
-
- [KYOSUKE'S BEDROOM]
- HIKARU:
- You weren't there for our date.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Sorry.... That I was late.... It was because...my Old Man....
-
- HIKARU:
- Your father wanted you to help him?
-
- KYOSUKE: (AFTER STUNNED PAUSE)
- That's right! And --
-
- HIKARU:
- Oh, that's it?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- I'm really sorry.
-
- HIKARU:
- No, I have to apologise -- for writing that nasty note on the
- message board.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- (Here I go lying)
- (HIKARU MOVES IN)
- KYOSUKE:
- Uh...! (GOES TO THE DOOR, AND SWINGS IT OPEN ON KURUMI)
- Will ya cut it out!
-
- KURUMI:
- Excuse me!
-
- (MANAMI ENTERS WITH COFFEE ON A TRAY)
- MANAMI:
- Welcome, Hikaru-san!
-
- HIKARU:
- Hi!
-
- MANAMI:
- Congratulations, big brother.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Hm?
-
- MANAMI:
- I thought you were pretty slow on girls, but now you've finally
- started inviting them home.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- MANAMI!
-
- MANAMI:
- Have a nice time! (EXITS)
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Ahahah. They're so nosy!
- (But then, it is true that this's the first time I've invited a
- girl into my room. And on top of that, in the middle of the
- night like this.)
-
- HIKARU:
- Say, sempai, will you go on a date with me after school today?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Er...sure.
-
- HIKARU:
- I'd like to talk about our future.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Sure. About the future.
- Future?!
-
- HIKARU: (LEANS CLOSE)
- Weren't you listening to me? What were you thinking?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Ahaha! The coffee is getting cold.
- Do you want some sugar?
-
- HIKARU:
- Er...I'll put it in. (THEIR HANDS TOUCH) Ah!
-
- KYOSUKE: (STANDING UP)
- Wonder why Manami didn't bring some biscuits. Damn.
-
- HIKARU:
- I like coffee on its own.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Ha ha ha. Er...me too!
-
- KYOSUKE:
- (Being just by ourselves, I'm seeing Hikaru-chan as a girl.)
- (But nothing really happened, and the night passed listening
- to music.)
-
- (MORNING, AND HIKARU LEAVES.)
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Achoo!
- (And that was it. I never imagined it leading to a giant mess
- throughout the school.)
-
- [SCHOOL]
- GIRLS CHATTING:
- "You know, Kazumi had a dream about sleeping with her boyfriend"
- "So dirty!"
-
- KURAMI:
- Oh, my brother actually spent a night with a girl.
- "?!??"
- "You're kidding?!"
-
- KURAMI:
- Seriously. With Hikaru-chan of the next class.
-
- "So bold.. ?!" (HIKARU COMES INTO SIGHT)
- "But it sounds reasonable if it's her."
- "Come to think about it, she's getting quieter."
- (HIKARU SWEEPS THE FEET FROM UNDER TWO BOYS IN THE CORRIDOR)
- "That's because she found a man."
- "That's so dirty! But I envy her." (PAN-SHOT OF LOCKER ROOM)
- "Really?"
-
- BOY WITH GLASSES:
- Never thought Kasuga could be that bold....
-
- GIRL:
- Did you hear about it? Kasuga-kun slept with a girl named Hikaru
- from grade seven.
-
- [KYOSKI'S CLASS-ROOM]
- GIRL 1:
- That reminds me. I saw Hikaru come back from the direction of
- Kasuga-kun's home.
-
- GIRL 2:
- Really?!
-
- [LUNCH]
- KOMATSU:
- You lucky guy!
- Aren't you my best friend? Why didn't you tell me about it first?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Tell you what?
-
- KOMATSU:
- Come on, didn't you go "C" with Hikaru from grade seven?
- (SLANG FOR RELATIONSHIPS: A = HOLDING HANDS, B = KISS, C=!!!)
-
- (KYOSUKI CHOKES)
-
- KOMATSU:
- You're pretty bold. Bolder than I thought.
- How did you get her into the sack?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Idiot. What are you on about?
-
- KOMATSU:
- Come on, the story about you and Hikaru is all around the school.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Why would anyone think I'd do that with Hikaru-chan?
-
- HATTA: (MOVING IN WITH CHOPSTICKS)
- "Good day." (EATS SOMETHING FROM KYOSUKI'S LUNCH)
- I don't think junior high students should do that sort of thing.
-
- KOMATSU:
- (TO HATTA) Shuddup.
- (TO KYOSUKI) And what was it like? How does it feel to become a
- man?
- Will you cut it out?!
-
- HATTA:
- My dear brother...
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Brother?
-
- HATTA:
- ...would you let me do the same with Manami-san or Kurumi-san?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- WILL YA CUT IT OUT?! STOP TALKING ABOUT ME DOING "C" WITH
- HIKARU-CHAN!
-
- (DEAD SILENCE FILLS THE ROOM. AYUKAWA GETS UP AND LEAVES)
-
- KYOSUKE:
- (Oh shoot!)
-
- [ROOF]
- AYUKAWA:
- Oh! Helping his father out?
-
- HIKARU:
- Yes. It's not that he didn't show up because he didn't like me.
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Hikaru....
-
- HIKARU:
- Yes?
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Men always make convenient lies.
-
- HIKARU:
- Oo?
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Do you believe his story?
-
- HIKARU:
- Yes! I don't think Sempai could make up that kind of thing! I mean,
- because when he tried to reach out for the sugar and touched my
- hand.... (GIGGLE!) He's so innocent!
-
- AYUKAWA:
- I see. Do your best! I'll help you as much as possible.
-
- HIKARU:
- Thank you!
- Now that I talked to you, I feel more up to it. I'll do my best!
- See you later! (TOSSES BALL TO AYUKAWA)
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Him, eh?
- Why did he have to lie about helping his father?
-
- [TREES]
- KYOSUKE:
- Hey! Have you heard that bad rumour spreading around about us? It's so
- annoying, isn't it?
-
- HIKARU:
- No, I don't find it annoying.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Ehh?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Now sempai and I are an officially recognised couple, to the
- school.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- But...don't you get mad about all those lies?
-
- HIKARU: (SUDDENLY SAD)
- Then...you don't like me after all, do you?
-
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Hey. Wait a moment.
- There's no way I couldn't like a girl as cute as you.
-
- HIKARU:
- Really?! I'm so happy!!
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Hikaru-chan, it's not the right place! (THEY BOTH GO SPRAWLING, A
- FACT WITNESSED ONLY BY THE MAJORITY OR SO OF THE SCHOOL)
-
- HIKARU:
- Darling, you're great after all!
-
- KYOSUKE:
- I'm out. (PASSES OUT)
-
- HIKARU:
- Sempai!!
-
-
- [HEALTH ROOM]
- KYOSUKE: (IN FANTASY SEQUENCE)
- Ayukawa!
- It's a misunderstanding!
- I haven't done "C" with Hikaru-chan!
- Wait!
-
- (HE HUGS HER...AND WAKES UP HUGGING HIKARU, JUST AS THE REAL
- AYUKAWA OPENS THE DOOR)
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Yaagh!
-
- - BREAK -
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Excuse me.
-
- HIKARU:
- Sempai! Lucky!
-
- [HALL]
- INJURED PLAYER:
- I wanna get in. Could you step aside?
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Don't go in right now.
-
- PLAYER'S FRIEND:
- What?!
-
- INJURED PLAYER & FRIEND:
- Ayukawa!
-
- INJURED PLAYER:
- I don't have to get first aid for this little scratch, do I?
-
- PLAYER'S FRIEND:
- Try to walk.
-
- PLAYER'S FRIEND: (VOICE OFF)
- See, you can, right? Let's go.
-
- INJURED PLAYER: (VOICE OFF)
- Wait!
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Oh shoot...
-
- INJURED PLAYER:
- Sorry! (BOLTS FOR IT)
-
- HIKARU: (VOICE OFF)
- Darling!
-
- [CLASS]
- MANAMI:
- It is true!
-
- CLASS:
- WHAT?!
-
- KOMATSU:
- But they were on the bed and --
-
- MANAMI:
- That's Kurumi's bad description. Elder brother and Hikaru-chan
- were only sitting on the bed, like a chair.
-
- KOMATSU:
- Sitting?
-
- MANAMI:
- Yup!
-
- CLASS:
- Awwww!
-
- HATTA:
- You know, I always believed in your brother! (GETS FOOT STOMPED ON)
-
- KOMATSU:
- Now Kurumi-chan's brother wouldn't commit such a filthy deed,
- would he? (FACE-POKING ENSUES)
-
- [BEDROOM]
- MANAMI:
- Big brother!
-
- KURUMI:
- Are you okay?
-
- MANAMI:
- You will be, if you take this.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- What's that?
-
- MANAMI:
- Egg sake.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- I don't want it.
-
- MANAMI:
- Drink it!
-
- KYOSUKE:
- No.
-
- MANAMI:
- Hm!
-
- (A LITTLE TELEKINESIS, AND IT ALL GOES DOWN)
-
- MANAMI:
- Kurumi!
-
- KURUMI:
- But it's best for him to get better soon, right? (EXITS AFTER
- HER SISTER)
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Sake...so strong...feels like 'm gonna get drunk.
-
-
- [FLASHBACK]
- Ayukawa:
- Excuse me.
-
- Kyosuke:
- Ayukawa....
-
-
- [HALL]
- KURUMI:
- I'll use the bath, first!
-
- MANAMI:
- Sure!
-
- (KYOSUKE STAGGERS OUT TO THE LIVING ROOM, SITS ON THE CAT AND
- MAKES A PHONE CALL.)
-
- AYUKAWA: (TO TEDDY)
- Noisy, isn't it?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Nine...ten....
- Please answer.
- ...nineteen...twenty....
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Hello?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Hello, Ayukawa? This is Kyosuke Kasuga.
-
- AYUKAWA:
- What do you want?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Er...I want you listen to what I'm going to say.
- It's about the rumour at school about me and Hikaru-chan.
- It's completely untrue!
-
- AYUKAWA:
- I'm busy right now, you know?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Its true she came to my home, but all we did was drink coffee,
- and talk. And the health-room incident happened because I was
- groggy, and not aware what I was doing. I only hugged Hikaru-chan
- because --
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Why do I have to listen to all this?
- It's so demeaning when a man tries to make excuses to get himself
- out of a scandalous situation.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Excuses?
- (At that moment, my head was completely messed up with fever and
- egg sake, I couldn't remember what I said.
- But Ayukawa was right. It's demeaning, telephoning to clear
- misunderstandings.)
-
- [AYUKAWA'S ROOM]
- AYUKAWA: (TO TEDDY)
- We hate a man who makes excuses, don't we? (TEDDY NODS)
-
-
- [CAFE]
- HIKARU:
- Say, Kasuga-sempai, how do you feel about Madoka-san?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Why ask that all of a sudden?!
-
- HIKARU:
- You mske it seem you don't like her.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- No way.
-
- HIKARU:
- That's good. She's such a nice girl.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- (Phew. I can't tell what this girl's gonna start talking about.)
-
- UMAO:
- Ushiko-san.
-
- USHIKO:
- Umao-san.
-
- UMAO:
- Why are you Ushiko-san?
-
- USHIKO:
- Why are you Umao-san?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- You seem to like Ayukawa quite a bit.
-
- HIKARU:
- She's like my sister. See this?
- This pendant is filled with Madoka-san's memory.
-
- [CINEMA]
- YOUTH:
- Hey, she looks pretty good.
-
- YOUTH:
- Let's give it a shot.
-
- [CAFE]
- HIKARU:
- Everybody else says Madoka-san is hot tempered and gets mad
- quickly, but she's not. When I was little....
- (FLASHBACK)
- Hikaru:
- Give it back to me! Waah!
-
- Boy:
- Naah!
-
- Hikaru:
- Waah!
-
- Ayukawa:
- Give that back to her!
-
- Boy's Mother:
- How many times do I have to tell you? My child didn't take
- anything!
-
- [CINEMA]
- YOUTH: (TO AYUKAWA)
- Why don't do something else fun instead of watching this dumb
- movie? I know somewhere really fun.
-
-
- [CAFE]
- HIKARU:
- And that kid gave in to Madoka-san's persistence, and returned my
- pendant the next day.
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Hmm. She sure is strong willed, isn't she?
-
-
- [CINEMA]
- YOUTH:
- Come on, don't make that kind of scary face.
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Get out my way!
-
- YOUTH:
- What? What did you say?
-
- AYUKAWA:
- I can't see the movie! (STANDS) Get your ugly face out of my way!
- (WHAM)
-
- YOUTH:
- You!
-
- (AYUKAWA EXITS)
-
- HIKARU:
- Sempai, will you date with me again?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Sure....
-
- HIKARU:
- See you later! Bye bye!
- (HER BUS LEAVES)
-
- YOUTH:
- Stop! It's not over yet!
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Ayu...Ayukawa! (LEVITATES STEAMROLLER TOWARDS THE HEAVIES, UNTIL
- HE SNEEZES AND DROPS IT. THE SHOCKWAVE SPILLS TAR OVER THE
- YOUTHS)
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Kasuga-kun?!
-
- YOUTH:
- Hey it's not over yet!
-
- [LATER]
- AYUKAWA:
- That was a big earthquake, wasn't it?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Yeah.
-
- AYUKAWA:
- You don't have any fever...
-
- KYOSUKE:
- Ayukawa....
-
- AYUKAWA:
- Mm?
-
- KYOSUKE:
- (I wanted to say that I heard about when Hikaru-chan was little,
- but I didn't...though I don't know why. It was better not talk
- about it and....)
- (THEY WATCH THE TRAFFIC TOGETHER, FROM AN OVERPASS.)
