Title page : "Love"...!?
01- Noeru and Sasa are waiting at the school entrance.  Noeru says they're late,
    where did they go ?
02- Maybe are they going to eat together this evening...  They could be
    waiting at the dormitory's lounge... but NO : they're waiting here !
    Yoshiaki is a rascal (thanks edict...)... he'll here Noeru's complaint !
    Sasa says he'll return, because it's 6:00 and he wants to watch TV.
    Noeru says he's cold-hearted... but Sasa says that they only were supposed
    to be charmed by fishes !  Maria and Yoshiaki are returning.
03- Maria thanks Yoshiaki since she enjoyed the day.  He did too.  Maria asks
    if she see him again on sunday.  For sure.
04- Yoshiaki grabs her hand and looks in her eyes. (Sound of Maria's heart)
05- As they are going to kiss, Noeru shouts "STOOOOP !!"
06- Maria is ashamed he saw them.  She says to Yoshiaki she has to return.
    He's surprised.  She explains that when Noeru's blood raises in 'her' head,
    'she' begins to speak very impolitely.  He understand and prepares to leave.
07- But he asks Maria's hat for a second.  Once he gets it, he hides behind the
    hat and kisses Maria.
08- Noeru is over-shocked.  Yoshiaki leaves.  Maria hides her mouth.
09- (?? not sure about what Noeru shouts... but he's getting crazy)
    Sasa only wants to return, to watch TV...
10- In class, Maria is dreaming.  Sasa says to Noeru she's been this way since
    yesterday.  Noeru is sad she didn't listen to him.  Kanako comes and
    says Maria's in fully in love.  (Noeru notices she isn't in the right class
    and Kanako says she was just visiting...)
11- She asks what he thinks about Maria's yesterday's date.  That's normal :
    splitting from Hirobe... (he means the opposite)  Kanako says he should
    understand, since 'she' has Sasa as boyfriend.  Noeru says she's wrong...
    Sasa is...
12- She says they'd better look after their own thing, and not intrude in
    Maria's romance.  In the parc, Noeru and Sasa are talking about Kanako
    not knowing the situation.  Sasa asks Noeru if he'll get in Maria's way
    for her marriage too.  That's fast... theiy still are young.
13- He just absolutely don't want Yoshiaki for her sister !  When he sees
    them going out together... kissing each other...  -Sasa says they had
    a kiss too-  Anyway, he don't want that guy !  Even Hirobe, who was an
    idiot, was a good guy.
14- Sasa forces Noeru to admit that before, he didn't like Hirobe... and at
    least, with Hirobe, it was a one-way love !
15- At the basket club, Maria talks to Hirobe.  She don't know how to explain
    the situation...
16- but Hirobe already knows it through his brother.  Maria is very ashamed,
    but he says's it's okay.  He says Yoshiaki knew her before because of him.
17- He was telling him the stories of the girl's basket club.  In the past :
    Yoshiaki asks about which players are good, and Hirobe tells him about
    Maria...  Yoshiaki says that's a pretty name.  Hirobe says she has a nice
    face too.
18- That's why he knew her name.  He often told him things about her.
    Maria imagines what else Yoshiaki could have said : How did Maria during
    the inter-school match ?, Hee, Maria has a twin !, Next time bring a
    picture of Maria so that I see her face...   She didn't knew that.
19- So, when she confessed her love to him, he told him too.
20- They both said she was very nice.  So, he proposed to 'try' her.
    Maria is very embarrassed she changed from Hirobe to Yoshiaki.
21- Hirobe says she didn't really love him, but she wholeheartedly love
    Yohiaki.  He says his brother is a nice guy. (Noeru heard it all.)
22- In class, Noeru thinks (Hirobe is a bad guy too...) buy Maria interrupts
    him.  She wants him to wait Yoshiaki at the school's gate, and greet him
    properly.
23- At the gate, Yoshiaki comes and says he's sorry he got lost on purpose
    during the double-date.  Noeru doesn't say a word.
24- Yoshiaki says he didn't think it was disturbing, since Noeru had company.
    He also says he's serious about loving Maria.  He asks him to thrust him.
25- Noeru says he has understood.
26- He asks pardon to Maria... and shouts she'll really abosulutely be
    important.
27- He runs away.  Yoshiaki is happy 'she' understood.
28- At the basket clud, Noeru goes to Sasa.  He says Maria is the first person
    he loves... but he isn't the person she loves in first. (He's crying.)
29- He says they aren't twins anymore... he'll be alone now.  Twins are like
    one body !  So, when their feelings disagree, they feel they're like 
    traitors.
30- He says (again) they aren't twins anymore.
31- People in the hall don't seem to notice them.
