Othello Ch.2: "The biggest liar of all

---

Seri/Moe: What? You don't remember what happened in the Karaoke Bar?!
*Yaya looking embarrassed/ shy*
Yaya: Well… no.

---

Seri/Moe: You drunk!!
Yaya: Eh?
Yaya: Drunk… nonsense, impossible.
Classmate : Hey, Moriyama-kun.
Moriyama: Hm…?
*Yaya in shock, she remembers the MD in her head*
Wah, I forgot to listen to the MD
*Yaya and Moriyama staring at each other*
Yaya: I'm sorry, Moriyama-kun!

---

*Yaya bows*
Yaya: I was distracted yesterday, so I couldn't listen to the MD.
Yaya: Today after coming home, I'll immediately listen to it…. Sorry..
I wonder if he's mad…
*Moriyama-kun looks evil…*
Moriyama: Well, you know…
Uaaah, I knew he would get mad…
Moriyama: I didn't say one single word and you just started falling on your knees.
Yaya: sorry…
Moriyama: Don't be so afraid.
Yaya: Sorry
Moriyama: And stop saying sorry all the time.
Yaya: I'm sorry…
*Yaya still has her head down*

---

*Moriyama is squatting donw, he looks right into Yaya's face*
*Yaya blushes, she's surprised*
Moriyama: If I am talking to someone I want to look right into this person's face.
*Moriyama is smiling*
(You know this is a great scene, it represents exactly Moriyama-kun's personality!)

---

*Yaya blushes more*
Yaya: Yeah,… alright
Moriyama: You have hair in your nose.
*SD Yaya and Moriyama-kun*
Yaya: That's why you wanted to look into my face.
Moriyama: Just kidding!
Moriyama: ah..
Moriyama: You care too much about what other people say! That's nonsense, cut it out!

*Yaya's still red. Seri and Moe overheard the conversation, they look mad*

---

* Yaya is looking for her MD*
The MD is gone… But I put it inside my bag
*Yaya remembers the scene in the Karaoke bar where Moe wanted to pull the bag*
Yaya: Give me the bag.
During this, the MD…
Seri: I don't know where your MD is.
Seri: Do you have it, Moe?
Yaya: It's okay, I'll go to the Karaoke bar.
//hi hi hi//
*Seri and Moe smiling evil* (bitches!)
*At the Karaoke bar, Yaya is asking the lady*
Yaya: Not… That's a pity.

---

What shall I do…?
What shall I do?
Moe (on the phone): You are evil, Seri!
Seri: What are you thinking of me, Moe-chan?
It's her fault that she doesn't take care of her stuff.

---

I have to tell him
I will tell him that I lost the MD and he will surely forgive me.
Voice: And how did you like the MD?
*Moriyama is smiling he is in an interviewer position*
Yaya: Eh…?!
Moriyama: The MD?
Moriyama: You've listened to it, right?! How was it?
I gotta tell him!
Yaya: Ah… well…
//Ha ha ha//
*Moriyama's smiling, he looks like a child, so cute*

---

Yaya: It was…
Yaya: …. Really cool.
Idiot!
Moriyama: And how did you like the bonus tracks?
Yaya: Ah…
*Yaya remembers Moriyama telling her about bonus tracks*
There are bonus material at the end!
Waaah, what was it again?
Yaya: They were good too.
Moriyama: That's all?
Yaya: ehm…
Yaya: I can't really describe. I wanted to say that…
Moriyama: You have this real strange look on your face.
Moriyama: Did I say anything that made you feel insecure?
Yaya: No, but…

---

Boy: Moriyama!
Moriyama: Yes!
Moriyama: Well, at least you said it was okay…
*Moriyama is walking away with his friend*
*A rock falls on Yaya's head with the word "guilty" on it.
Seri/ Moe: Hey Yaya!
Seri: So you found the MD?! Where was it?
Yaya: Ah… at the Karaoke bar.
Seri/ Moe: Why this face?

---

Seri: Did you really find Moriyama's MD?
*The girls are walking on the hallway, about 10 metres behind Moriyama-kun and his friend.
Moriyama-kun can hear us.
Seri/ Moe: You didn't really listen to it…
*Moriyama is still walking with the back to them, his friend is somehow looking back*
Seri /Moe: She stopped moving.
Seri/ Moe: Did you listen to it or not?
He can hear everything

---

Seri/ Moe: You are lying a lot lately, Yaya…
He can hear it for sure!
*Yaya's kneeing down, covering her ears*
Yaya: My head hurts…
Sign: Nurse's office.
Yaya: uhmm…

---

I'm sure everybody thinks I'm just acting ill… even Seri and Moe.
Also Moriyama-kun…
Damn!
Damn! Damn!
They spoke that loud on purpose so that everybosy could hear it!
And those should be friends…
I hate liars

*Yaya's gettino up a little*

---

The biggest liar of all is…

*Yaya looks afraid, she*s covering her ears with her hands. Suddenly she slowly opens her ears again*

Nana: Uaah…
Nana: I'm not relaxed.
Nana: Why are you bringing yourself down..? That's nonsense!

---

*Nana is looking into the mirror*
Nana: What Yaya lost…
.. will Nana get back!
*On the streets, Nana is hiding*
*Nana jumps on a balcony*

*Nana breaks into Seri's room through the window.
Nana: Hello… anybody here?
Nana: Wah, how should I find a MD in this chaos?
30 minutes later*
Nana: Ah, here is it!

---

*Nana is looking at the MD*
Nana: You are an idiot, Seri!
Nana: I knew it was you. (sorry I can't really translate this, Nana wants to say that Seri acted so stupid that everybody could see that she had the MD)
*Nana has an idea*
Nana: Better this way…
Nana: Bye…
*Nana jumps out of the window*

---

*Nana is hanging. A dog is looking up to her and barking*
(Maaaaan, that's Ponta!!!!! ^_^)
*Back at the Nurse's office*
Nurse: You are still sleeping?! Everybody else already went home.
*Yaya's looking down, she has pictures of Seri and Moe and of Moriyama-kun, who isn't looking at her in her head*

---

At home, Seri sees Nana's letter on the window*
Letter: To Seri! You liar, you thief!
Seri: It's gone… I put it here!
*Seri is looking for the MD*
That was Yaya. It must have been her!*
Damn!

---

*Yaya has the MD, she's blushing*
Yaya: I have it!
I'm silly… I put it into my skirt pocket and forgot it there.
Lucky…

*Yaya is lying on her bed, listening to the music*
*Yaya remembers Moriyama's word*
Moriyama: There roots are Led Zeppelin
Yaya: It really sounds similar.
Music: That's not true, it's a lie!
Yaya: Japanese… ?

Seri: I don't get it!
Seri: How can somebody be that hardboiled?! I'm cracking up!
Moe: You know Seri… maybe she's bolder than we thought…!
*Yaya talking with Moriyama*

---

*Yaya bowing*
Yaya: I lied.
Yaya: But I've already really listened to the MD. I'm really sorry.
*Moriyama looks scornful*
*Moriyama looks weird ^^; *
Moriyama: So, what should I do with you?
Moriyama: Should I forgive you?
Moriyama: And how do you like it now? (The MD)
Yaya: I liked it, really!
Moriyama: That's all?
Yaya: Led Zeppelin are cool. They really influenced Juliet.
Yaya: But the Bonus Tracks… I was surprised…
Yaya: …that you are playing in a band… in such a great band. That's cool!
Moriyama: Really?! You really think so?!

Yaya: What I think of…?
Yaya: Why?
Seri: Would you do me a favour…

---

Seri: Well, I think you already know that I'm in love with Moriyama.
Seri: I'm really serious about him.
*Yaya blushes, she looks a little shocked*
Seri: You don't really care, right Yaya?!
