Kanata Ep. 10: Kanata's Feelings, Haruka's Feelings
After asking Haruka how she really feels, you decide to call Kanata up to the roof and tell her the truth.
Player
Sorry to make you come all this way to see me.
Kanata
It's okay. So, is this…
Player
Yup, it's about Haruka. I talked to her, and she's just as sweet as you made her out to be.
Kanata
Yeah, I'm very proud of my little sister.
Kanata
So, what did she say? Did I do something to upset her? Does she hate me now? If she does, I…
Player
Relax, relax. She absolutely does not hate you. In fact, it's the opposite.
Kanata
The opposite?
Player
Remember my video of your solo event? After Haruka saw it, she said she realized how much you enjoyed being a school idol and that she was so happy for you.
Kanata
R-Really? Then, why is she avoiding me?
Player
The thing is, now she's determined to be more independent.
Kanata
Huh?
Player
Of course, she understands how much you love and care for her.
Player
But apparently, she feels like you've been sacrificing too much for her sake.
Kanata
I'm not sacrificing anything, though.
Player
Sure, but that's not what Haruka thinks. She said you prioritize her over everything.
Kanata
Well, I'm her big sister. Of course I do.
Player
Exactly. That's why she's worried that if anything ever happened to her, you'd give up everything else, including being a school idol, to take care of her instead.
Kanata
No, I…
Player
Wouldn't? Are you sure? She's really anxious about it. She doesn't want you to give up on something you love for her sake.
Player
She said she wants to become self-reliant so that won't happen. She wants you to focus all your energy on the things you're passionate about.
Kanata
Haruka said that?
Player
I know it's none of my business, but why not let her have her way?
Player
It looks like Haruka wants to help you out just as much as you do her.
Kanata
Haruka…
Player
Sorry if I'm overstepping my bounds.
Kanata
No, you're not. It's just…a lot to think about.
Player
I get it. I know how much you care about Haruka, too.
Kanata
Self-reliant, huh… I'll miss the way things used to be between us. I just love her so much.
Kanata
But I need to consider Haruka's feelings as well as mine. Both of our feelings are important.
Kanata
Maybe if I'd recognized that sooner, Haruka wouldn't be so worried in the first place.
| Option 1: “You should talk to her.” |
|---|
| Player I told Haruka she should tell you how she feels in her own words, so she might say something tonight. I think you two need a good heart-to-heart. Kanata Ahh! B-But I'm not ready to… No, I can't be like this. Whatever Haruka's feelings are, I should accept them. |
| Option 2: “Do you feel better now?” |
| Player So, do you feel better now? Kanata Yeah. It feels like a huge weight's been taken off my shoulders. |
Kanata
Thanks to you, I know how Haruka feels. This really means a lot to me. And by the way, I'm sorry for all the drama.
Player
Don't mention it. You can come to me whenever you've got something on your mind.
Kanata
*Giggle* Now that I'm not worried anymore, I'm getting sleepy. Can I take a little catnap on your lap?
