“Are there any hamsters?”

“The reptiles are awesome…”

Um, guys, he’s wearing a shirt with the name tag “Joseph” and he’s looking for hamsters.  Oh, what a wonderful world this is ♥

Dear Nino,

I read your message from last month.  I’m doing fine.  I heard that you got into high school with no problem.  That’s too bad (laughs).  Let’s go out to eat sometime soon… (with Kansai pronunciation).  Like to McD’s* (laugh).  That’s right, though, I don’t tend to call people.  But I really love you, Nino! But I’m just too much of a shy guy to be straightforward with my feelings (laughs).

*Ohno says “makudo” here, which is what they call McDonald’s in Kansai.  In Tokyo they usually say “makku”- this is probably because he was in Kyoto doing stageplays for a few years.

Dear Ohno Satoshi-kun,

Have you been well these days?  You told me to go see “MASK” but studying for entrance exams has been really tough.  Sorry I couldn’t go.  Lately I’ve only been able to talk with you on the phone, but when my entrance exams are over let’s go hang out somewhere.  But you know, Ohno-kun, I wish you’d stop falling asleep while we’re on the phone.  I thought you hung up on me! (laughs)  Since you’re never the one to call, don’t fall asleep when someone takes the trouble to call you! (laughs)

痕跡 (かこ) - 二宮和也

Remnants (The Past) - Ninomiya Kazunari [translation by me]

It doesn’t disappear, it doesn’t disappear, traces of the early summer rain
They don’t dry, traces of my tears
I can’t erase, can’t erase what floats in the dark night
The shadow of my loved one

We’re walking in the dry river bed at sunset
You bring out the smiles in me
What should we have for dinner tonight?
All of these small, tiny, everyday bits of happiness

You, who had died, lived on deep in my heart

Even if I love another person
They can only ever be “someone else”
No matter how many times the seasons change
I’m really afraid of being separated and disappearing

I stare at the violets- these flowers are so beautiful
But one day they’ll dry up, won’t they…
Sometimes when the evening twilight bleeds into red
I see the two of us on the water’s surface…

The two reflections overlap
I’m afraid of them becoming just one
I realized it too late, but
Now there’s just one on the water’s surface…

The seed I planted in my heart that day
Bloomed after twenty days’ time
No matter what form it takes, my love for you doesn’t change
The gentle light…

「バカにされる方が良いんだよね。たかがジャニーズとかアイドル風情がだとか。だってその方が面白いじゃん？」

“I’d rather be made fun of, you know?  Like ‘Oh, you’re just Johnny’s’ or ‘You’re just acting like an idol.’  ‘Cause that’s more interesting, isn’t it?”

「答えが出ないような悩みなら悩まない方がいいよ」

“When faced with a problem with no solution, it’s better to just not worry about it.”

-Ninomiya Kazunari

I’m the only woman who understands you, darling.

Dear Charles, I do not understand your message to me, or for that matter your great interest in me.

I like you, Guy! I really do!

“Hatori-san! Thanks ♡ I’ll be waiting for your texts from now on too!!”
