Watashi no R
[00:00.40] When I was just about to take off my shoes on the rooftop,
[00:02.56] I found someone already there before me a girl with braided hair.
[00:04.81] Despite myself,
[00:07.06] I called out to her:
[00:09.54] “Hey, don’t do it.”
[00:20.84] The words just kind of slipped from my mouth.
[00:23.07] It didn’t really matter to me either way.
[00:25.33] It just didn’t sit right with me
[00:27.58] that someone got there ahead of me.
[00:29.81] The girl with braided hair told me her story—
[00:32.32] the kind of story one probably has heard before.
[00:34.57] “I thought we were meant for each other.
[00:36.82] I just really wanted him to like me back.”
[00:39.09] Are you kidding me?!
[00:41.07] The nerve you have to get here
[00:43.56] before me for such a lame reason!
[00:48.07] You’re upset because you can’t have what you want?
[00:52.56] You’re lucky enough that you’ve never had anything stolen from you!
[00:57.31] “I feel better now that I’ve talked about it,”
[00:59.58] the girl with braided hair said, and disappeared.
[01:06.32] “All right, I’m gonna do it today,” I thought,
[01:08.82] but just when I was about to take off my shoes,
[01:11.30] I found a short girl there,
[01:13.43] and I ended up calling out to her again.
[01:15.45] The short girl told me,
[01:18.19] about how lonely she feels in her class.
[01:20.45] “Everyone ignores me. Everything’s stolen from me.
[01:22.71] I don’t belong anywhere,” she said.
[01:24.96] Are you kidding me?!
[01:26.68] The nerve you have to get here
[01:29.43] before me for such a tame reason!
[01:33.82] Despite all that,
[01:35.83] you’re still loved at home,
[01:38.56] and there’s always dinner waiting for you, right?
[01:43.09] “I’m hungry,”
[01:45.33] the short girl cried, and disappeared.
[01:48.34] Just like that, I spoke to a few of them
[01:54.48] and talked them out of it,
[01:56.75] while I myself can’t share my pains with anyone.
[02:14.97] For the first time, I’ve found
[02:17.49] a girl who has the same kind of problems as me.
[02:19.72] I met this girl wearing a yellow cardigan
[02:21.98] after I’ve seen a few of them.
[02:24.40] “I came here, hoping to erase
[02:26.65] the bruises that keep increasing
[02:31.14] every time I come home,” she said.
[02:33.39] The words just kind of slipped from my mouth.
[02:35.65] It didn’t really matter to me either way.
[02:38.14] But I ended up saying to her
[02:40.27] something even I myself didn’t quite believe in:
[02:42.52] “Hey, just don’t do it.”
[02:47.02] What should I do?
[02:49.02] I can’t stop this girl.
[02:51.52] I don’t have the right to stop her.
[02:56.25] But even so, just go away from here.
[03:00.76] It’s too painful for me to look at you.
[03:05.26] “I won’t do it today, then,”
[03:07.51] she said as she dropped her gaze, and disappeared.
[03:12.23] There’s no one here today.
[03:14.50] It’s just me, myself and I.
[03:16.77] No one can get in my way.
[03:19.28] No one would get in my way for me.
[03:21.49] Taking off my cardigan,
[03:23.75] unbraiding my hair,
[03:26.01] this short girl
[03:28.26] is going to jump now
