S2E11 Backstroke Turn of Fate!/Quotes

Makoto: [finds Haru standing near a Torii and leans on the rail next to him] I thought you’d be here. Haru, I… don’t think you can go on this way either. Until now, I thought that if this was what you wanted, it was fine. Because whatever Rin said, I wanted to respect your wishes. But what you said to Rin at regionals…

''Haru: [in his flashback after their individual heats] What dream? What future? It’s you who cares about that! I’m not you! I don’t have any of that!''

M: If you truly want to stay as you are, I won’t say anything. But… if it’s just that you can’t find a dream for yourself, I… would want you to find one.

H: [hesitates and turns to Mako] You want me to find one? Is it something you can find just by looking for it?

M: Well...

H: Forget it. I’m done talking about this. [tries walking away but Mako grabs his right arm]

M: Wait!

H: [turns to Mako] Let go!

M: Listen to me!

H: No matter how many times I listen, it’s the same! You can’t find a dream just by looking for one! I’m fine with the way things are!

M: You’re lying! Truth is, I want you to find a dream too! You should find it, and go flying into the outside world to follow it! You have the ability to do that!

H: Even you’re talking like this!? Where I swim and who I swim for!? I’m free to decide that for myself! And I’m saying I’m fine with the way things are!

M: But you’re not fine! You’re not fine! That’s why we’re all telling you this! Nagisa, Rei and Rin, and me; it’s because we all love you! Because we care about you! Why can’t you understand that!? We want you to find your dream, to look to the future-

H: [grits his teeth and shoves Mako with his grabbed arm] All you ever do is meddle with everyone! Stop sticking your nose in everyone else’s business! A dream? A future? Well? What about yours!? Stop going on about other people’s futures when you haven’t even decided on your own! [breathes heavily] Well, say something.

M: [lets go of Haru’s arm] I have decided. I’m…going to a university in Tokyo. [cue fireworks] I meant to tell you sooner, but I couldn’t find a way to say it. I…

H: Do whatever you want! [runs away]
