I'm sorry for being late," Yui said apologetically.Ja: 「そんなことないさ。今こうして来てくれて嬉しいよ。」武は心からの言葉で答える。En: "Not at all. I'm just happy you came now," Takeshi responded with genuine words.Ja: ユイは椅子に座りながら、武が一人でいることがどれほど辛かったかを思った。En: As Yui sat in the chair, she thought about how difficult it must have been for Takeshi to be alone.Ja: 「助けが必要なときは、遠慮なく言ってね。大事な友達だから。」En: "If you need help, don't hesitate to let me know. You're an important friend," she said.Ja: 武の顔が少し考え込む。En: Takeshi's face showed a bit of contemplation.Ja: 「でも、ユイちゃんに負担をかけたくないんだ。」En: "But I don't want to burden you, Yui-chan."Ja: 二人の間に静けさが訪れたが、それは気まずさではなく、深い理解の瞬間だった。En: Silence fell between them, but it wasn't awkward; it was a moment of deep understanding.Ja: 武はついに答えた。「たしかに、時々は助けが必要だ。ありがとう、ユイちゃん。」En: Takeshi finally answered, "It's true, sometimes I do need help. Thank you, Yui-chan."Ja: ユイは微笑んだ。「それなら、これからはお互いに助け合おうね。」En: Yui smiled. "In that case, let's help each other from now on."Ja: その日、二人はずっと話を続け、互いの気持ちや今後の計画を共有した。En: That day, the two of them continued to talk, sharing their feelings and future plans with each other.Ja: ユイは、自分一人で全てを抱えようとするのではなく、助けを求めることが大切だと学んだ。En: Yui learned the importance of not trying to carry everything on her own but seeking help.Ja: 武もまた、時には友達に支えられることの大切さを理解した。En: Takeshi also came to understand the importance of being supported by friends at times.Ja: 病院の外では、冷たい風が吹いていたが、部屋の中には暖かい光が満ち溢れていた。En: Outside the hospital, the cold wind was blowing, but inside the room, there was a warm light overflowing.Ja: 二人の友情は一段と強くなり、それぞれ新たな一歩を踏み出す準備ができていた。En: Their friendship had grown stronger, and they were both ready to take a new step forward.Ja: ユイと武は、これからも困難を共に乗り越えていくことを心に誓った。En: Yui and Takeshi pledged in their hearts to overcome difficulties together from now on.
