Lesson 013
将棋クラブ部長のソウタと部員のリナが話をしています。
So, let me get this straight. Tom and Masami are dating each other?
That’s right.
Who told you that?
Masami told me.
But she was always arguing with Tom. Does she really love him?
Well, you know what they say. You can only argue with someone you love.
I don’t know about that.
Anyway, Sota, why do you care so much? Do you like Masami?
No, I’m just wondering why she changed.
Lesson 042
今では恋人同士のマサミとトムが、ソウタについて話しています。
Tom, did talk to Sota today?
I saw him earlier. He looked different.
Didn’t he? He’s wearing stylish clothes today.
Yeah, I wonder why.
Guys don’t change their fashion for no reason. That he’s hiding something is obvious.
Do you think he’s trying to impress someone?
Of course. The question is, who?
Maybe it’s you.
Me? But he knows I’m dating you now.
Yeah, and I don’t think he’s happy about it.
Lesson 096
将棋クラブのソウタがマサミにクラブを辞めることを伝えます。
Sota, why the serious look?
I’m afraid I have some bad news.
Bad news? What is it?
I’m quitting the shogi club.
You ? Why? You’ve always been the leader of this club.
I know, but I have to concentrate on studying for my college exams now.
I don’t believe you, Sota. Tell me the real reason why you want to quit.
I think you know the real reason.
Do I?
Yes.
Lesson 108
将棋クラブのカップル、トムとマサミがソウタのことについて話しています。
Masami, is Sota OK? He never returns my calls.
I’m sure he’s OK.
He doesn’t even reply to my text messages.
He’s quit the shogi club.
I know that, but something seems strange.
Can I have a bite of your cake?
No! Please don’t do that, Masami.
You never let me try your food.
Why should I? Anyway, what did Sota say to you?
Nothing. Can we talk about something else?
Lesson 122
将棋クラブのメンバーで、恋人同士のトムとマサミがカフェで話をしています。
Sota finally texted me. He said he’s not feeling well these days.
What’s wrong with him?
I’m not sure. He didn’t say exactly. He may or may not be ill.
What do you mean? Don’t you know?
I’m not sure. He’s acting very strangely. He might be covering something up.
What would he be covering up?
Listen, Masami. if you want to be with Sota, that’s fine with me.
What are you saying, Tom?
Lesson 133
将棋クラブのトムとマサミが話しています。泥沼な様子です。
What are you saying, Tom? What do you mean by “if you want to be with Sota”?
You like Sota, don’t you?
What makes you think that?
You’re always concerned about him. Too concerned.
You shouldn’t jump to conclusions. He’s just a friend.
But I’m just a friend, too. How many boyfriends do you need?
I can’t believe you said that. If that’s the way you feel, fine. Sayonara!
Wait! Masami! Come back!
Lesson 152
Masami, I made a big mistake!
You said, “How many boyfriends do you need?” I’ve never been so insulted. It’s over between us, Tom.
Masami, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.
No, I think you did.
Look, I’m apologizing. It came out the wrong way.
I don’t think so. Your true feelings came out.
Masami, please don’t misunderstand me. Sometimes I’m not so good with words.
Good-bye, Tom. Don’t call me anymore. I won’t answer.
Lesson 163
将棋クラブのソウタとマサミが、通りで偶然会いました。
Sota! Where are you going?
Oh, Masami. I forgot my phone. I must have left it in the clubroom.
No wonder I haven’t been able to contact you.
Why were you trying to contact me? Where’s Tom?Why were you trying to contact me? Where’s Tom?
Oh, we broke up.
What happened?
He said some rude things to me. I can’t even tell you.
That’s too bad.
Not really. Anyway, can I go to the clubroom with you?
Um, sure…
Lesson 171
将棋クラブのリナとトムが部室で話しています。
Oh, Tom. You just missed Masami and Sota.
They were here? Together?
Yes, Sota had forgotten his phone.
Did Masami say anything to you?
Yes, she said she’s quitting the club again.
It’s because of me, right?
Yes. You really upset her with your rude comment.
I wish I hadn’t said such a stupid thing to her.
What’s done is done. You can’t change the past.
That’s what they say.
