Sweet Intoxication That Melts Away With One Bite (Part 2)

Hatsumi: What do you mean by happy?

Lilja: Because I saw something rare. It's not like you to get excited about things other than acting. 

Lilja: It's a sign that you like being at Eden.

Hatsumi: I feel like saying something straight back, but…... There’s no room for argument on this one. 

Hatsumi: A theatre company that I can move as I wish, and actors I approve of. I have these two things, so I have nothing to say.

Hatsumi: Of course, I don't know if it will stay the same in the future. It's possible that, for some reason, I'll give up on Eden......and vice versa.

Hatsumi: However...... with the current Eden, I don't think I have to worry about that. The events of Valentine's Day convinced me of that.

Lilja: You don't doubt anymore.

Hatsumi: Because there's no room for doubt.

Lilja: I see. Then give them lots of harsh love.

Hatsumi: It's too early to be a stranger. You should receive my love too.

Lilja: Eh?

Hatsumi: Receive it. To put it in your own way, it's harsh love from me.

Lilja: A present? From you, to me......?

Hatsumi: What’s so surprising? I was indebted to you on Valentine’s Day. Isn't it natural to return the favor with sincerity? 

Lilja: Can I open it?

Hatsumi: Yeah, be my guest.

Lilja: ......Body cream. It smells of chocolate.

Hatsumi: I thought it would be nice to get you something that's very Valentine's Day-like, since we're going all this way. I did my homework and decided on something from the manufacturer you use.

Lilja: Yeah. It matches......

Hatsumi: Heh heh......are you that surprised?

Lilja: Not fair...... I didn't give you anything for Valentine's Day......

Hatsumi: Just seeing your face is worth giving it to you.

Lilja: .............

Hatsumi: Oops, did I tease you too much? But you're the one who taught me how to have this fun, remember?

Lilja: Me?

Hatsumi: The nervousness and anticipation when you give someone chocolate yourself...... The embarrassed and happy face of the person to whom you give it......

Hatsumi: The excitement and emotion that is unique to the Valentine's Day event. If I had just received it like before, I would never have understood.

Hatsumi: If you hadn't given me the chance, I wouldn't have known anything. Let me thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Lilja: The way you say it is exaggerated......

Hatsumi: That's how grateful I am.

Lilja: Yeah...... Hatsumi's feelings were conveyed properly. Thank you for the present.

Hatsumi: Heh heh......

Lilja: What's wrong......?

Hatsumi: Nothing......when I thought that smile was directed only at me, I couldn't help but smile.

Hatsumi: Next year's Valentine's Day too, I have to do my best to see Lilja’s smile! 

Lilja: The motive is impure. But-

Lilja: (I'm sure it will help you. Love goes around.)

Hatsumi: But......what?

Lilja: I won't say any more. Because it will come around someday. Heh heh.
