Only Yesterday Page #3

---

Is there a Miss Okajima here?

That's her.

Hirota in our class

says he likes you.

Let's go.

We'll say we told you.

Told you.

Where is it?

Over there.

Shuji Hirota and Taeko Okajima

It's true!

What's he like?

- No idea.

- Me, neither.

Taeko, you sure you don't know him?

No... of course not... not at all.

Which one is Hirota?

It's the Room 5 girls.

Hirota, they're looking for you.

Yes, I'm here!

Don't write silly things on the wall.

Taeko told us to tell you.

I didn't write anything.

You said you liked

Okajima in Room 5.

You did.

So, we wrote it for you.

I love you so much...

But you're so far away...

Like gazing up at...

Goodbye.

A far distant star.

Taeko!

We just went to see Hirota.

We told him not to

write things on walls.

Tsuneko!

Ah, no running.

Aren't you glad?

5th Grade:
Room 4

Over here.

See? That's him.

What? Hirota likes Taeko?

He's amazing. A real star.

You mean baseball?

Only Tono can hit his pitches.

Really?

Our team plays his

in the next game.

Go, go, Hirota!

Go for it, Tono!

Hit it, Tono!

Kill it!

Go for it, Hirota!

Taeko's watching you!

Hit it, Tono!

Way to go, Hirota!

Strike him out!

Don't you dare cheer their side!

Of course not!

Go, go, Tono!

Hiro, Hiro, Hirota!

Hit it!

One leg stance!

Wow!

Way to go, Hirota!

I knew nothing about baseball.

But even I could tell he was superb.

Go, go, Hirota!

What's up, Taeko?

Between the cold and the excitement,

I ran to the bathroom five times.

Over here, over here!

Girls' Bathroom

Game!

5 to 3. Room 4 wins.

Thank you for the game.

You were great Hirota!

Good job.

You were amazing!

It was all your fault.

How come?

You don't know anything.

If Tono couldn't hit him,

how could we?

That's right.

You missed the throw and

three runs scored.

That's not true.

Coach said he'd buy us ice cream.

- Really?

- Great!

Hirota, you should go see her.

Yeah, you should.

I'm going home.

What's the matter, Taeko?

Look, she left.

Um...

...that stuff...

...on the wall...

Rainy day or...

cloudy or sunny day...

which do you like?

Cloudy.

Me too!

Rainy day or cloudy or sunny day.

Which do you like?

Me, too.

I didn't intend the ten year-old me

to come on this trip.

But somehow, once she showed up...

...she wouldn't leave me alone.

But why me in the 5th grade?

Second hour, all boys play baseball,

all girls to the gym.

How come?

Baseball, great!

Today I'm going to talk about

something very important.

You'll leave grade school,

then junior school then high school.

Then become grown ups and have babies.

A woman's body prepares

to have babies.

Did you know?

Really?

Mom told me

when I was in fourth grade,...
