I wasn't interested in marrying Hina.
Eh?
I've...
liked you, that's why.
Eh?
What did he just say?
See ya.
FUKUYADOU HONPO: KYOTO LOVE STORY
EPISODE 3 TREMBLING HEART
I'VE LIKED YOU
"I'VE LIKED YOU" IN OTHER WORDS.
"I've liked you..."
That means...
THE REAL MEANINGS "I'VE LIKED YOU"
1. USED TO LIKE, BUT NO LONGER LIKES.
2. LIKED FROM A LONG TIME AGO AND STILL DOES.
Which one?
Hinoyama.
How can you speak that way towards a guest?
A guest?
I'm planning for the honeymoon.
With whom?
With your sister, of course.
East or West Europe, which does your sister prefer?
Why don't you ask her yourself?
I wanted to astonish her.
Basically a "surprise."
A surprise?
Why are all guys like that?
Like what?
Do you think women will truly be happy if you surprise them?
Is that wrong?
-To be honest, it's a bother. -A bother?
It often comes up in American dramas, right?
Putting the engagement ring in dessert,
switching off the lights in the shop before proposing.
Isn't that great?
How?
First, let's talk about putting a precious stone in food.
Then, about the ring, what if she doesn't like it?
Don't worry, I have confidence in my tastes.
That's not the issue.
The surprise is for your own satisfaction.
Why are you speaking so cynically?
Leave me alone.
Well, in any case, I'm doing it to make the person I like happy.
It's rare for guys to say "I like you" out loud.
Is it really that hard to say it?
Unless he's a teenager. It's different for adults.
-Then, what about "I've liked you"? -Huh?
Is it easy to say, "I've liked you"?
"I've liked you"?
My friend was told, "I've liked you"
by someone she'd known for a long time.
-I see. -That...
What does it mean?
Exactly what it sounds like.
What it sounds like.
"I've liked you," so, in the past?
No, but it could refer to the present too, right?
Did he say "always"?
"Always"
-wasn't used. -Then it's past tense.
No, but what about it meaning "I still like you now"?
It doesn't.
So, which would Hina prefer?
I'll ask my sister.
Please keep it a secret.
All right, next up, the summer night gathering.
Anyone want to be in charge?
No one?
Teacher!
Go ahead.
I think Fukuyoshi would be suitable.
-I agree. -Yeah.
What do you think, Fukuyoshi?
You want to try?
I...
All right, Fukuyoshi will be the girls' representative.
What about boys?
Me!
Oh, Iori.
All right, Fukuyoshi and Iori, we're counting on you.
Right, on to the English lesson.
Open your textbooks.
Page 57.
Miss, look at this.
Is it an order?
I'll be there for you tonight at 7:00 p.m.
-Ichioka Shojuro
No, thank you.
Here you go, a souvenir.
Please marry me.
I can make you happier.
It's not too late yet.
Hina.
Please meet me again tomorrow.
I'll take my leave.
You don't have to decide right away.
But if there's even a slight chance,
let's meet again as a man and a woman.
I'll be waiting for you tonight at 7:00 p.m. -Ichioka Shojuro
I'll be waiting for you tonight at 7:00 p.m.
Ken!
Hi!
Delivery?
Gifts for a wedding ceremony. I'm on my way back.
-What did you make? -Joyo rice cakes.
-My favorite! -Sei saved some.
Yay!
It makes you that happy?
It's because I felt a little out of sorts today.
What happened?
We're having a summer night gathering.
For a break from entrance exam preparation.
My teacher planned it.
Isn't that good?
Not at all! I'm in charge now.
Big responsibility, right?
Yeah. I've never done that before.
Just talk to your friends and get it done quickly.
Yeah.
There's another person in charge though...
You don't get along?
I don't even know.
It's a boy.
He bullies you?
No, it's not like that.
Good morning.
Are you coming in?
Um, yeah.
I don't know what to say to him.
Just do like you always do.
Just talk like you do to me or Sei.
-I can't do that. -Why not?
You're not a boy.
I guess...
What should I do?
What should you do, huh?
-Ken. -Yeah?
I can't count on you.
FUKUYADOU HONPO
What are you doing?
I've liked you.
You're in my way.
What's with that?
Ah, Arare.
You decided to take over the shop?
Huh? Why do you think so?
Then, why did you come back?
You have no idea...
What?
Um...
Which one is better for the honeymoon?
Honeymoon?
Hinoyama came to ask me.
Really?
Let's go somewhere private.
You can't help yourself, huh?
About what?
Thinking about home.
Yeah.
Stop being stubborn and just come back.
It's like a fight between children.
You and Mom.
I'm sorry,
but whose fault do you think it is?
I do feel sorry.
But it's your problem now, right?
What?
I don't want to take over the shop, I'm sure of that.
If you don't want to, just say the same.
I did say that.
But
she turned a deaf ear to it.
Hey.
Is it taking over the shop that you hate?
Or
marrying Ken?
Did you change your lipstick?
Eh?
I've never seen that color on you.
It's something I got from someone,
but I guess it doesn't really suit me, right?
I'll give it to you.
I think it'll suit you better.
Don't worry, I only used a little bit, it's like new.
No.
It's something that once belonged to you.
Even if you didn't use it.
Do you know how it feels to always get your hand-me-downs?
Do you understand?
The dress you didn't like and no longer wanted to wear
because it'd be wasteful,
you made me wear it.
Do you understand?
That's when we were kids, right?
It's still the same.
When you don't want to take over the shop, then, "Go take over the shop."
When you're going to marry someone else, then it's "Go marry Ken."
It's like you're completely ignoring my feelings.
I'm just a spare, aren't I?
I've had enough of hand-me-downs.
So that's what you've been thinking.
Even if it was old or a hand-me-down, if it was something that I really wanted
I wouldn't mind.
Thank you for this.
FRANCE-ENGLAND GERMANY-HOLLAND-BELGIUM
HINOYAMA
Excuse me.
Yes?
Delivery is done, so I'll take my leave.
Since you came all this way...
But...
In this house... Um...
I'm alone.
It'll cause me trouble.
If anyone around here sees it.
I don't think anyone will see.
I'm the successor of the Fukuyadou Honpo.
If anything happens before I get married
it'll hurt my shop's reputation.
I'm sorry.
-Okamura. -Yes!
What is it?
This is my housekeeper, Okamura.
-It's fine, you may leave. -Is that right?
Isn't it difficult?
Living like that.
Isn't it hard?
Here you go.
Sorry about earlier.
Earlier?
For saying that it'd hurt my shop's reputation
and flaring up.
Oh.
Good-bye.
What are you doing?
Did I hurt your shop's reputation?
You and your store are two separate entities.
It won't get hurt.
-Here you go. -Thank you, thank you.
What's your name?
Shijaku.
What a cute name.
Here you go.
By the way, Hinoyama, you are finally getting married?
Your time has certainly come,
but there must be many girls left crying.
Please don't tease me.
You're humble, too humble.
There you go.
LA MAISON DU CHOCOLAT
Here you are.
What's that?
La Maison du Chocolat's limited edition product.
I queued up since morning and finally got it.
Give me some.
Are you kidding? Why do you think it's wrapped up with a bow?
Eh? For Valentine's?
-Yep. -For whom?
That's a secret.
Eh?
By the way, did you know? Ken is going to Paris next month.
The Japanese restaurant there
wants him to serve Kyoto-style Japanese sweets.
Isn't that great?
Wait a minute, what about our shop?
What will happen if Ken-can gets transferred?
It's okay, he said he'll be back in two years.
-I see. -And
he's going to marry our sister once he gets back.
Ken will be our real big brother.
It's a weird feeling somehow.
It's hard to call him "big brother," huh?
But since it's been so long, just "Ken" will do, right?
Eh?
That...
Yummy.
You can have some, too.
-Can I? -Yeah.
I'll go share it with everyone.
INCOMING CALL KEN
Hey, I can just call back.
Eh, I picked up.
Hello?
What's with "I picked it up"?
Ah, that...
Are you free tomorrow?
Eh?
You're free, right?
I'm not free. I'm busy with stuff.
Well, then, I'll wait for you at 3:00 p.m. at Horikawa Nakadachiuri.
What's with "Well, then"?
Ouch.
-Ah, it's you. -Who else would it be if not me?
-You're late. -You've just arrived, too.
If you saw me, you should've called out to me.
Well, I was admiring you for a bit.
You look pretty good.
From far away, that is.
-Huh? -Up close, you look the same as usual.
Well, I'm sorry.
Where are we going? Take me there already.
Okay.
I didn't know there was a cafe around here.
It's been here for some time.
This crowded?
It got popular only recently.
Please come in.
CONFECTIONERY MENU
The Japanese sweets are from Fukuyadou.
Oh, this is...
Various Japanese sweets that were sold in Paris.
I told the Proprietress to sell them at the store,
but she said they had to be sellable outside first.
Compared to Western sweets,
young people are unfamiliar with Japanese sweets, right?
I made these to reach a new market.
Young people don't usually come to our store, right?
I was told it's useless to place our items there.
So she told me to reverse import them.
Reverse import?
As in, we bring them to places like this,
and let customers try the taste first.
Then, if they're interested, they'll flow over to our store.
I see.
By letting us bring traditional Japanese sweets here
we kill two birds with one stone.
So typical of Mom.
In this way, she's been paving a new way for the store.
Recommended new Japanese sweets ARALE 600 yen
Shall we get that?
What's with the "Arale"?
Well, that's the "Arale" based on Arare's image.
What do you mean by that? I don't get it.
Excuse me.
It's translucent, so pretty!
They look like marbles!
Perfect for a rash person like you.
Well, excuse me.
I could make these sweets, thanks to you.
Thank you.
In that case, I'll tuck in.
Delicious.
Silly, of course it is.
Eat this, too.
We should release this at the store.
Really?
You're still eating?
This is tomorrow's snack.
So, don't you want to return home now?
Not really.
Arare.
I like your rashness, but I hate your stubbornness.
Be more true to yourself.
I'm not being stubborn.
Then, what's with this?
It's just that I'm suddenly being told to do this and that.
I don't know what's the best thing to do.
Arare,
taking over the business and being with me are two separate things.
You don't want to take over the store,
or you don't want to marry...
Ken...
How do you truly feel about it?
You don't mind taking over the store, right?
But marrying me because of that...
I never particularly thought about taking over the store.
I didn't think about marrying you either.
What's important is,
whether you will take over the store or not,
your feelings are the most important.
Don't think about unnecessary things.
Just face your feelings.
Wait a minute.
What do you mean?
I don't get it.
Why are you carrying on the conversation as you please?
Do my feelings not matter?
I told you to focus on what you want.
You said, "I've liked you."
You said you've liked me.
Yeah, I said it.
Arare,
I...
NEXT EPISODE
The Proprietress has been taken to the hospital.
Rather than letting you take over, I'll close before I retire.
So, you're Hina's little sister?
Why did you choose me?
I fell for you at first sight.
Of course I like you.
I'll protect you.
THIS DRAMA IS A FICTION.
ANY RESEMBLANCE TO ACTUAL PEOPLE IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL. THANK YOU!
