Sho: "Tsubame no Iru Eki". I really love that play. It was really good. I was really touched by it. It was the character he played, but it was also him coming alive in that play, I was really touched by that Aiba-kun. That was a really good play. I like that the best.

I can't think of any crisis, but a while ago, after Higashiyama-sempai worked with Aiba, he worked with me. Higashiyama-sempai told me that after he said 'thank you for treating me well' to Aiba, Aiba replied 'Please take care of Sakurai too'. I'm grateful.

Sho: Matsujun knows a lot of restaurants. I always go to the same favorite restaurants... and 70% of those are the same as Aiba-chan's favorites. lol.

Aiba: Yesterday, I sent a text message to Sho-chan “Call me whenever you have time.” Then he called me within one minute (laugh). I was surprised with the timing and I wonder if he knew I will send him the text. That about him makes me wonder.

To sum it up in one word, Aiba-kun is my video rental store lol. I'm just joking, but he often lends me DVDs. Plus there is no late fee lol. I have one right now that I've been borrowing for over two weeks. The borrowing began when I lent him a recording of the Himitsu no Arashi-chan haunted house episode. Then the next day he brought me two DVDs, saying they were ones he recommended.

With Aiba-kun, we go to each other's birthday parties too, and when he came to mine he brought me this big bouquet - he's very loyal, right? I've promised to lend him Ryuusei no Kizuna next. If one of us records it, the other doesn't have to miss it. 

Sho: Ah, thank you.

Sho: I still remember the night view in Italy when we were there about 10 years ago. It was really magnificent! But the only regrettable part was that the guy next to me (Aiba-kun) was sleeping through it all.
