From year end to New Year,
we may forget fire precautions
as we're so busy.
The Fire Department is starting
a fire precaution campaign.
Education on fire precaution
is now being done.
Fire cases have been going down
for 20 years, a notable record.
This reflects the alertness
of our Kyoto citizens.
We need your help to make
Kyoto a fire-less city.

How's your wife?
She's fine.
And...
Yoshimasa?
- He's grown.
- In kindergarten? - Yes.
There's one more...
above?
Kaori, a girl.
- She's Grade 2.
- I see.
I've never met her.
- Really?
- Yes.
You said you want to talk?
It's nothing really...
just...
we haven't seen
each other for long.
So...
I want to see you.
- Oh.
- Yes.
I was surprised
when you phoned.
Sorry.
I thought...
you're in trouble.
Something is troubling me, though.
Say it.
Do you...
want to eat something?
- Perhaps...
- Today, it's...
- my treat.
- Oh!
- Here.
- Thanks.
Drink.
You can drink.
Thanks to the 4 years
in university.
Here.
- You can, right?
- Yes.
Oh!
Now you.
Today...
OK.
Drink.
It's...
about what?
No...
- Boyfriend?
- No.
You have one?
They say, "Date in January,
"date the whole year."
Really?
I don't have a boyfriend.
- Liar! Really?
- I don't have any.
No man will...
let go a young and
charming woman like you.
Be honest.
But...
We're alone,
we drank a lot.
I'm afraid.
Why?
When you're in high school,
boys liked you a lot.
You find it funny that
I'm 23 and still a virgin?
Well...
What type of man...
do you like?
Nice,
tall,
like when you were young,
Teacher.
Now, I'm no good.
Thanks.
- Some more.
- I can't... - You can.
Boyfriends... I have a lot.
But no lover.
- No?
- No.
Really?
It's true.
But compared to the past,
you got more womanly.
- Really?
- Yes.
I didn't recognize you just then.
I have makeup on.
When you're young,
have you fallen in love?
Yes, just like the others.
Like the others.
You?
I want to be like the others.
If we go farther...
Drink.
Only hotels here.
Let's go in.
You did this a lot?
I've never done this. Really!
I know it!
"Rest"
This is...
"Green"!
Green.
Lets go in.
- Really? - Yes?
- We'll go in?
Go in!
Welcome.
Welcome.
You're early today.
- 2 bottles of beer.
- 2 bottles of beer, yes.
The bill, please.
Nothing to do at home
but too early to sleep.
Go have fun.
It's still early.
- I have work tomorrow.
- Oh.
Your hours are early?
Yes, I have to go out at 7.
Incredible!
- 250 yen please.
- Here. - Thanks!
- Goodbye.
- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
BATHHOUSE
There.
It's small.
Wait here.
Sure.
I'll tidy it up.
You may come in now.

- OK?
I come in now.
It's very small here.
Ashtray.
- Here.
- Thanks.
Some drinks?
Coffee?
- Only instant.
- Yes. - Yes?
Got a match?
A match.
Sorry.
This OK?
Thanks.
May I?
- It's tidy.
- What?
- It's tidy.
- Because there's nothing.
I'm so happy today.
- Really?
- Yes.
You drive very well, Masaru.
- Really?
- I'm surprised.
You can't move like this?
Thanks.
Enjoy.
I put in sugar already.
Maybe not enough.
That's OK.
Of the men who came here,
you're the 2nd one,
after Dad.
- Really?
- Yes.
Nice.
Hot.
Oh yes, no match.
Wait.
Matches from "Ken".
You always go there?
- No.
- Really?
I eat at home, mostly.
Oh?
Do you smoke?
Thirsty.
I'm thirsty.
Anything to drink?
Beer.
Some beer?
Wait.
Want some cheese?
- You drink?
- Yes.
- You sleep in this?
- Yes.
Cute.
- Cute?
- Yes.
I'll drink with you.
Wait.
Thanks.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Tomorrow?
I'm free.
- Yes?
- Yes.
Tomorrow...
I have to get up early.
Work.
Leaving?
Travelling far tomorrow.
Tough work.
Then I'll work tomorrow.
- What time is it?
- Now?
Wait.
It's...
past 11.
Past 11?
- Stay longer.
- I have to leave early tomorrow.
- I have one more beer.
- No.
The shirt.
- I should have hung it up.
- No.
It's always wrinkly.
Really?
- Oh...
- What?
- Come again?
- Yes.
Day after tomorrow...
- Promise?
- Promise.
- Where to? Here?
- Here.
I'll wait for you. When?
Like today.

- I'll eat first.
- You'll eat first?
I'll buy some beer.
Thanks a lot!
It's so late,
you should sleep here.
I have to get another set of gear.
The job is different.

- Yes. "Ken".
Thanks.
Bye.
Day after tomorrow.

Good night.

- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
I'm leaving.
It's so cold.
5:30 next morning.
I must go now.
Photographing my boss.
Easy work.
He's doing kendo.
He wants me to take pictures of
him practicing in the morning.
"Breath of the Japanese."
Bosses...
Good work.
What?
Work.
You know?
What is it?
What is it?
It's always work.
- It's work.
- It isn't!
Why?
Unhappy?
It won't always be work!
You won't go anywhere with me.
You haven't eaten out with me!
OK.
I'm so lonely.
It's tough.
Mom's waiting.
I have work early in the morning.
How old are you?
What about it?
It matters!
Mom. Work.
There is something else, isn't it?
No, but I can't help it.
Let's go out next time.
Drive?
You said the same last time!
Hear this.
I'll get a phone.
My place.
You can call from the office.
If I call from there,
we can't talk for long.
Really?
- Isn't that expensive?
- Yes.
You're rich.
It's convenient.
That manga is so interesting?
But I'm bored.
Read this?
When I'm done.
Read this?
- Why?
- Don't want to.
Listen.
- I said listen.
- What?
Mom...
she...
is away for 2, 3 days.
Can I stay?
Yes! Of course.
OK?
Good.
Yummy,
Yummy?
- You like curry?
- Very much.
Yes!
Yes!
- Ms. Suzuki.
- Yes?
Come in.
- Circular,
- Thank you.
Telephone?
Keiko.
- Keiko?
- Wait a second.
You're here.
Come when you're done.
I'll be right there.
Hello? I'm sorry.
Yes.
Oh really?
That's OK.
I'll call again...
some other time.
Yes.
No... Thank you.
Sorry to disturb you.
Welcome home.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year.
Back from home?
How are you?
What is it?
Hey.
You're angry?
Hey.
You're angry?
Good phone.
It's good.
What is it?
Because I didn't call?
I was in Kyushu.
The work took much time.
About 3 weeks.
Liar!
Liar?
It was only 3 days!
How did you know?
I called your company.
I told you not to call there.
Why?
Because you haven't called.
Only 3 weeks!
What did they say?
You're married?
Oh.
Real angry?
I told you I love you.
That's it.
Won't forgive me?
Is it a boy?
A girl?
No.
Leave.
I don't want to see you.
Leave now!
Get up and leave!
Serious?
Out!
That's it?
Shut up and go!
Bye.
Well then.
I'll call you?
- Can you take this?
- [told you...
Say "Good Day" first.
- No more senbei?
- Ouch!
What?
What?
Ouch!
To the centre, please.
- Here?
- The centre.
- Here?
- Where I can photo you.
Can you?
The cherry blossoms too?
- They're in the picture?
- Yes.
Can't get a focus.
Oh?
The face would look silly.
My hands all OK like this.
Here we go.
1,2... 0h?
- Sorry.
- I'll wait a bit.
Your hair.
- Done.
- This is not a pose!
- Ready?
- Ready.
Don't fall down.
Yes.
So long?
- I'll sit.
- You'll sit?
Sit? Or this?
Catcha!
- Oh?
- Oh?
How many times do I have to...
- Sitting”?
- Yes. - I'll...
Why?
Why?
Strange.
- Someone taught you how?
- I have the manual.
When you borrowed this.
Only 2... 3 photos left.
It will work this time.
- The tree too...
- Still nothing...
Done!
Finally.
Hello.
Dad?
Again?
No.
No.
I'm busy. Can't come home.
I said no.
I understand...
Wait.
No!
I don't want to get married now!
This has nothing to do with me.
Is there any?
Yes.
And this.
Kazuyo. Kazuyo?
- Yes?
- Want some coffee?
Yes.
- Keiko?
- What? Yes.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Sure...
For everybody?
It was fun last time.
Yes. Very much.
It was a bit tiring at the end.
For both of us.
- It got a little...
- It was interesting.
Next time let's be more relaxed.
Yes.
When we will go out again?
Weekend is not so...
Maybe sometimes.
On weekend, you're...
- at home?
- Yes.
We'll see each other at the office.
Yes...
Yes...
I don't really like going out.
- Really?
- Really.
It's about time. I'm going home.
Why?
It's getting late.
May I keep this?
Of course.
Let's go out again?
- What?
- Yes?
I'd like to go out with you.
You don't want to let me go?
We aren't spending
much time together.
Oh yes...
- You detest me?
- No!
I don't detest you, but.
But we meet
every day at the office.
You're strange.
Tomorrow...
Monday?
Tomorrow is Monday.
You live far from here?
That's OK. I'll see you home.
How to say this...
I have things...
that I want to talk about.
- What is it...
- It's...
What is it?
Strange.
We talk a lot at the office.
- Let's go?
- Yes.
Now.
- I'll see you home.
- Yes.
Your room is cute!
A bit stuffy.
It's very girlish!
Sit there.
- It's your bed?
- Yes. - May I?
- I'll make tea.
- You have coffee?
I have instant.
Then coffee for me.
Whose painting is this?
I drew it.
Once I wanted to be a painter.
You paint?
Now I don't.
I really didn't know.
I've never mentioned it.
Really?
I'll put the raw food in the fridge
before Mariko arrives.
When will she come?
She's coming.
When she phones,
then we'll go fetch her.
An egg is broken.
It's Mariko. Pick it up.
- Shall I?
- Pick it up.
- Hello. Mariko?
- I said so.
Where are you?
- We'll go now?
- Yes.
Oh come on!
Why?
What?
We bought enough for 3.
Tell her we'll wait for her.
What time then?
Until 117
Take a taxi.
All night long. Yes.
Really?
- Oh no!
- Let me.
Hello.
Listen. Don't spend all your time
with your boyfriend.
Come drink and chat with us girls.
Who?
That's OK.
Next time then.
So,
say hello for us.
I understand.
Bye.
Do what you like!
- She's so...
- Yes!
- She stood us up.
- And I bought a lot.
Always with her boyfriend!
She shouldn't!
She should hang out with
girls once in a while!
What now?
- Us two?
- Yes.
No other way.
- Are you hungry?
- No.
- We don't have to eat now.
- Right.
Bathhouse?
- OK. After a bath, we'll eat.
- Yes!
We'll be hungry then,
and we'll drink and eat a lot!
So be it?
I think so too.
Let's go.
For two.
I'll put it here?
Keiko.
What's up?
- Long time no see.
- Not working?
It's closed today.
- Bumping into each other here!
Can't believe it! - Me too.
Now you don't come
to the bar anymore!
How about... that man?
You were with him last time.
Now he doesn't come too.
I wonder what happened.
Are you living with each other,
got married or what.
No. Something's happened...
Something? What is it?
You don't come at all!
All of a sudden!
- I'm busy.
- You're busy?
- OK
- I'll come again.
Here I come.
We'll get some beer.
- 50 yen each.
- 50 yen each.
Here?
- Some more coins?
- Get some more.

- This is cold!
- OK?
- Too cold!
- I'll take these.
- Yes.
We'll drink them?
- Who's that girl?
- Ah...
She's the waitress of
that snack bar.
She was talking about Terayama?
Terayama?
- No?
- No.
Someone else.
You and Terayama...
is over?
I've heard.
No.
No? He's been chasing you.
Just friends.
He's a good person,
but I hate men.
You hate men?
- Wow.
- No!
I don't mean that.
- But he's good, right?
- Very good. Very nice.
I got to know him,
but is he really...
Terayama told you?
No.
- Then how...
-l can see it!
- Really?
- I'm at the office too!
But I didn't talk about
that at the office.
It was...
you went out in the afternoon?
Then he went out too.
You got back,
it's like he's pursuing you.
Then we all know.
- You all know?
- Yes.
- Oh no...
- Shocked?
It's no big deal.
No big deal, but you all
think that we're in love?
You and the others.
You mean about you and Terayama?
Not really...
that you're in love,
but Terayama has no one else.
Just you.
- I think so.
- Oh no...
- You're a drinker?
- It's whisky.
You can drink.
- 6 cans of beer.
- It's a lot.
There are still 5 or 6 cans.
And so...
who's that man?
If he isn't Terayama, then who?
- He?
- Yes.
I'm not a virgin.
You're quiet at work.
- So you were pretending...
- to be innocent.
Virgin!
You were pretending?
I can't see that.
I was madly in love.
- Really?
- Yes.
Drink!
- Let's drink.
- OK?
To get you talking.
Once in a while.
Yes?
I really loved him.
And now?
Still a bit.
I want to marry him.
Really? That's great.
No. It's just me.
- What a pity
- Yes.
Who is he?
He's married.
He's married and has kids.
I didn't know.
- Still seeing him?
- No.
We quarrelled, then we split.
- You left him?
- I said some mean things.
- You didn't know at first?
- Right.
But do you still miss him?
I don't know
if I'm still thinking of him.
I gave him up...
but I love him.
I see.
- You've stopped seeing him?
- Right.
Is that a good thing?
- Is that a good thing or not?
- It is.
Yes?
I feel sorry for Terayama,
but [ can't.
I just can't.
- You can't forget him?
- Right.
Let's not say that
I can't forget him,
But I'm through...
with men.
- Through?
- Yes.
But you can't forget him either?
Right.
But you'd better forget him.
Right!
Married and has kids!
- Yes.
- Tricky.
Yes.
Such practical matters...
are important to you?
You can't ignore that?
I can't.
So that's it.
I can't.
Through with men?
Through.
Let's change the topic.
Let's.
Hey Where's this place?
Somewhere near my high school.
- Osaka?
- A rare sight, isn't it?
I really didn't know you can paint.
Next time you'll take me somewhere.
For a sketch. OK?
Slowly...
Isn't that bad?
You're up?
What do you want for breakfast?
Good morning.
I have a headache.
- You drank a lot.
- Too much.
Some water?
Thanks.
Thanks.
You OK?
Feeling OK?
- Like a rock.
- Really?
I go buy some pills for you?
Yes.
- Aspirin.
- Aspirin?
- Any drugstore?
- Yes. I think so.
I'll buy some for you.
The drugstore...
you know that "Ken" snack bar?
Go pass it,
you'll see a post box.
Then turn right.
OK.
Going now.
- Up already?
- Yes.
Are these OK?
They're small.
Thanks.
Water?
Take one pill.
It's so beautiful.
- Gorgeous.
- Isn't it?
You can't tell
it's so gorgeous at night.
- Takagaike Pond is around here?
- Yes.
How about we sketch there, Teacher?
Yes? No?
Let's go.
How's your head?
It works?
- Does it work?
- Yes.
It should. Aspirin...
Can you? Let's sketch.
Sketch? Today?
Yes?
Today...
- I want to be alone.
- No?
It feels so good here.
Next time?
You alone today?
Thinking about something?
- Well...
- Yesterday?
- Yes.
- What?
Let's forget that.
- OK
- OK?
- That's what you want?
- Yes.
It's so strange...
Don't fuss over it.
It's nothing really.
It's no big deal.
So don't fuss over it.
So...
don't fuss over it.
You looked so stern.
Bye.
See you tomorrow.
See you at work.
Take care.
Punch in for me.
Morning.
- Good morning.
- Good morning!
Good morning. Sorry.
- Hey you!
- Sorry for Saturday.
Sorry for what?
- Sorry.
- For what?
How was it?
- Such a long date.
- Sorry.
You always say you'll come,
but you never!
- Yummy?
- We ate your share too!
- All of it?
- Sure!
- Wow!
- And we drank.
Wow.
You drank through the night?
That's the plan,
but we fell asleep.
Of course you did!
- I stayed the night there.
- You did?
- A bad hangover.
- Really?
You too?
Real bad.
Let's drink next time.
Just like that.
You'll come?
- Through the night?
- Yes.
- We won't sleep.
- Yes.
Let's start working.
Well then.
I'll be waiting.
Bye.
Yes.
Yes...
Come in.
Come in!
Come in, painter.
Yes...
Take this...
You took an hour!
There?
- What?
- What?
Look at that!
1 million deposit...
2 million deposit!
Let's go in?
- An apartment.
- Yes.
They may have it inside.
- Try it.
- Really?
There's none.
One more.
Tired?
If it's possible...
around 50,000.
50,000 each month.
Somewhere cheap to start with.
Everybody says so.
Everybody wants it cheap and good.
But that's impossible.
An old place will do.
Old or new, it's always
the location that sets the rent.
Then somewhere a bit far away.
Inconvenient...
There is one.
A house for 50,000 yen a month.
- 50,000?
- The owner wants 60,000...
the owner may say yes
to 50,000 for you two.
The owner have to see you first.
That's mean!
Shhh!
It's too small for two!
And it smells so musty.
He didn't tell us that.
Let's call him.
- You call him.
- OK.
That's great, thanks!
We'll check it out.
Bye.
One more!
There's one more.
He knows the owner personally.
It's far but available.
The owner's son is studying in UK.
Two more years.
He won't renovate it
but that's OK for 2 years.
- OK..
- We'll see it first?
Hello.
I'm Teramoto.
All of a sudden, sorry...
Don't mention it.
Just a few steps from here.
Over there.
Just 200 metres.
It's near.
Follow me.
Thank you.
We're still eating it...
No lock.
It's old.
A bit heavy.
Like it?
It's old.
Wow.
What a view!
- It's not dusty.
- Right.
- Easy.
- It's clean.
Like a granny's.
It isn't dirty.
It's well kept.
The owner's son took good care of it.
It really isn't dusty.
Quite clean.
Not much work to do.
On this wood...
you can still see
where the branches were.
It must worth a lot.
Scary!
I don't dare to touch it.
I'm an idiot
You're an idiot
What are you doing?
Swatch!
Be careful with this.
It's old.
So I took it.
It's your Mom's?
My granny's.
- So heavy.
- There are bugs.
Go.
Up.
Oh!
- What's wrong?
- A crack.
It isn't used for long.
- It's almost dry.
- Good.
Coming in.
Oh!
Smart girl.
This is perfect.
Here I come.
I'm so tired.
Tired.
That slope is steep.
Is it raining?
Are you done?
Wait.
- I'm tired.
- Hold on.
I'm tired!
Sorry.
You can move your hand now.
Sorry.
- Thanks!
- Thank you!
It will flap.
- How?
- Feel the patch?
- Press on it
- Press?
- Will it flap up and down?
- Then tie it tighter.
- What is this?
- Direction indicator.
This is the chock.
You won't use it.
No?
This is the rear brake.
This is the front brake.
Get it?
This is the klaxon.
Here?
Let's stop here.
OK.
It's nice here.
Hey.
What?
Work...
you'll keep working there?
Yes.
it's already 6 years,
that I've been there.
So,
I want to start
a business if I can.
Hey.
If I really do so,
what should I do?
Up to now,
I work in fashion.
So,
I should start a boutique or so.
We can...
take some prints from
our present company.
Or get some leftover.
I think we can...
start a business like that.
You agree?
You aren't listening?
Listen!
- A shop?
- Yes.
Just a little bit more.
It's not today or tomorrow,
I want to save up some more,
maybe 2 or 3 months.
There are snack bars, right?
After work,
I can work at such places until 12.
After 2 or 3 months,
I'll save enough money.
It's too tough.
It is. I'll hang on.
If I do that,
well...
I need money...
to start up, and keep it
running for several months.
This must be included.
I think 2 or 3 months are enough.
So if I do this,
I can't do it on my own.
So I want you to help me.
What do you think?
Well... is it possible?
Is it possible?
If I'm doing it with you,
I think it's possible.
Me?
- Welcome home.
- I'm home.
It's really late.
Yes, very late.
- You've been waiting?
- Not really.
- You're drunk?
- No!
Am I drunk?
- Want some water?
- Yes, please.
I'm...
feeling so high.
Like I'm spinning.
It's been a while that
you drank so much?
You said you won't drink for real.
Thanks.
How do you feel?
Very fine.
Too fine.
I sang.
They handed me a mic.
"What?" I said.
Then they made me sing.
"Oh no!" I said.
"Just sing what you know." They said.
"I don't know any!"
Then I sang a folk song.
So embarrassing!
A lot of young people there.
That's good.
You come with me next time.
I'll introduce you.
What are their occupations?
Nothing to do with fashion.
Really? There's no one you know?
- Is there any?
- That's embarrassing!
- Who?
- He works hard in daytime.
The supervisor?
Never mind!
It's a lot of fun there.
My boss is a very nice woman.
So it's mostly...
- male customers.
- Really?
Managers, nice men.
Good.
Many male customers.
They feel...
so old-fashioned.
- That kind of men.
- Really?
- After a drink, they talk freely.
- Must be fun.
Those men.
They may look horny
but they mean no harm.
You're popular.
What if I have to
do this every day?
Drinking a lot at night.
It's just me,
drinking against
many men every night.
That's too much.
How about modelling?
- Yes, but occasionally.
- Hey!
For me.
Making any progress
on your painting?
- Today, not much.
- You aren't doing it?
- I was, just then.
- Really?
I'll do it for you.
When I feel well.
- Oh... - I'm so tired today.
- Are you?
I'll hang on!
Stuck?
A letter.
From who?
A love letter?
Dad.
- What?
- From Dad.
Your Dad?
- Yes.
- About what?
I don't know.
Serious?
What is it?
I have to go home.
Blind date.
Don't decide for me!
What?
I'll choose the one I like.
It's just...
- for your sake!
- Why?
It's always our relatives
or my brother!
That Minoru!
I don't care!
You're...
- not a kid anymore!
- That's why...
I'll choose the one I like!
I'm not a kid!
- I...
- You stay out of it!
Why won't you listen to me?
I won't go.
I hear that...
you do kendo?
A bit.
And you like hiking?
- Yes.
- About hiking...
in the past, she used to...
hike a lot with me...
when she's in high school.
I see.
How about you?
Any hiking recently?
- No.
- What?
- I've been so busy...
- Oh.
In the future,
you can take Nakamura
to go hiking.
How about...
to Natsuyama, for example?
I hope Nakamura
would turn me down.
Even if he turns you down,
your Dad will find
some other men.
You're of age.
In fact, it depends on you.
Better say no if you don't want it,
right?
Yes...
it's been so many times.
You went this time.
Blind date, yes.
I got used to it.
If I refuse to go,
what would happen?
- You OK?
- Yes.
I woke you up?
That's OK.
I feel great.
- You OK?
- I'm OK.
It's Saturday.
- You shook me.
- It's full house.
So many orders.
Have you set the alarm?
- Yes.
- We'll go tomorrow.
- Yes.
- Wake me up.
- Can you wake up?
- Yes. Oh! It's past 1:30!
Just a bit after 1:30.
Better sleep now.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
Wake me up! Wake me up!
- Remember!
- Yes. - OK.
Kazuyo.
It's morning.
Kazuyo.
Kazuyo.
It's morning.
It's morning!
I'm so sorry!
Sorry!
Why didn't you wake me up?
You were fast asleep.
I didn't know I slept so long.
Now I'm awake.
How was it?
It's bad now.
It got cloudy suddenly.
- Really?
- It's cloudy now.
But where's the sun?
It was just 10 minutes.
Now you can't?
Tired?
No.
- Sleepy?
- No.
It's so cloudy now.
What a pity
I need to come early next time.
Early... let's get up early!
My nose...
let's get up early?
- Let's go.
- We'll leave now? - Yes.
Well then,
that's nothing I can do.
OK.
Thanks for all these years.
I thank you too.
Thank you very much.
Please tell the others for me.
I haven't told them.
I will.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Take care.
Please forgive me for...
leaving like this.
I thought...
I could go on living with you...
in such bliss.
Living with you,
meeting you,
I was really happy.
No one has ever understood
me like you did.
No one has been so nice
to me like you did.
There will never be...
someone like you.
But...
it's something...
that can't be helped.
Having destroyed all these,
I.
feel so bad about myself.
Forever...
forever...
it's you...
that I'll love with all my heart.
I.
haven't left here.
My love will always remain here.
I feel so sad,
so I took your portrait with me.
As if I didn't draw it myself,
you'll always be on my side.
But...
in fact,
I'm really very sad.
From year end to New Year,
we may forget fire precautions
as we're so busy.
The Fire Department is starting
a fire precaution campaign.
Education on fire precaution
is now being done.
Fire cases have been going down
for 20 years, a notable record.
This reflects the alertness
of our Kyoto citizens.
We need your help to make
Kyoto a fire-less city.

How's your wife?
She's fine.
And...
Yoshimasa?
- He's grown.
- In kindergarten? - Yes.
There's one more...
above?
Kaori, a girl.
- She's Grade 2.
- I see.
I've never met her.
- Really?
- Yes.
You said you want to talk?
It's nothing really...
just...
we haven't seen
each other for long.
So...
I want to see you.
- Oh.
- Yes.
I was surprised
when you phoned.
Sorry.
I thought...
you're in trouble.
Something is troubling me, though.
Say it.
Do you...
want to eat something?
- Perhaps...
- Today, it's...
- my treat.
- Oh!
- Here.
- Thanks.
Drink.
You can drink.
Thanks to the 4 years
in university.
Here.
- You can, right?
- Yes.
Oh!
Now you.
Today...
OK.
Drink.
It's...
about what?
No...
- Boyfriend?
- No.
You have one?
They say, "Date in January,
"date the whole year."
Really?
I don't have a boyfriend.
- Liar! Really?
- I don't have any.
No man will...
let go a young and
charming woman like you.
Be honest.
But...
We're alone,
we drank a lot.
I'm afraid.
Why?
When you're in high school,
boys liked you a lot.
You find it funny that
I'm 23 and still a virgin?
Well...
What type of man...
do you like?
Nice,
tall,
like when you were young,
Teacher.
Now, I'm no good.
Thanks.
- Some more.
- I can't... - You can.
Boyfriends... I have a lot.
But no lover.
- No?
- No.
Really?
It's true.
But compared to the past,
you got more womanly.
- Really?
- Yes.
I didn't recognize you just then.
I have makeup on.
When you're young,
have you fallen in love?
Yes, just like the others.
Like the others.
You?
I want to be like the others.
If we go farther...
Drink.
Only hotels here.
Let's go in.
You did this a lot?
I've never done this. Really!
I know it!
"Rest"
This is...
"Green"!
Green.
Lets go in.
- Really? - Yes?
- We'll go in?
Go in!
Welcome.
Welcome.
You're early today.
- 2 bottles of beer.
- 2 bottles of beer, yes.
The bill, please.
Nothing to do at home
but too early to sleep.
Go have fun.
It's still early.
- I have work tomorrow.
- Oh.
Your hours are early?
Yes, I have to go out at 7.
Incredible!
- 250 yen please.
- Here. - Thanks!
- Goodbye.
- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
BATHHOUSE
There.
It's small.
Wait here.
Sure.
I'll tidy it up.
You may come in now.
- Give me your bag.
- OK?
I come in now.
It's very small here.
Ashtray.
- Here.
- Thanks.
Some drinks?
Coffee?
- Only instant.
- Yes. - Yes?
Got a match?
A match.
Sorry.
This OK?
Thanks.
May I?
- It's tidy.
- What?
- It's tidy.
- Because there's nothing.
I'm so happy today.
- Really?
- Yes.
You drive very well, Masaru.
- Really?
- I'm surprised.
You can't move like this?
Thanks.
Enjoy.
I put in sugar already.
Maybe not enough.
That's OK.
Of the men who came here,
you're the 2nd one,
after Dad.
- Really?
- Yes.
Nice.
Hot.
Oh yes, no match.
Wait.
Matches from "Ken".
You always go there?
- No.
- Really?
I eat at home, mostly.
Oh?
Do you smoke?
Thirsty.
I'm thirsty.
Anything to drink?
Beer.
Some beer?
Wait.
Want some cheese?
- You drink?
- Yes.
- You sleep in this?
- Yes.
Cute.
- Cute?
- Yes.
I'll drink with you.
Wait.
Thanks.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Tomorrow?
I'm free.
- Yes?
- Yes.
Tomorrow...
I have to get up early.
Work.
Leaving?
Travelling far tomorrow.
Tough work.
Then I'll work tomorrow.
- What time is it?
- Now?
Wait.
It's...
past 11.
Past 11?
- Stay longer.
- I have to leave early tomorrow.
- I have one more beer.
- No.
The shirt.
- I should have hung it up.
- No.
It's always wrinkly.
Really?
- Oh...
- What?
- Come again?
- Yes.
Day after tomorrow...
- Promise?
- Promise.
- Where to? Here?
- Here.
I'll wait for you. When?
Like today.
- Like today.
- Like today?
- Think I can manage.
- We'll eat?
- I'll eat first.
- You'll eat first?
I'll buy some beer.
Thanks a lot!
It's so late,
you should sleep here.
I have to get another set of gear.
The job is different.
- Really?
- Yes.
Where's...
- I'll take the matches.
- Yes. "Ken".
Thanks.
Bye.
Day after tomorrow.
Bye.
- Bye.
- Good night.
Good night.
- I'll lock the door.
- Yes.
- Bye.
- Bye.
I'm leaving.
It's so cold.
5:30 next morning.
I must go now.
Photographing my boss.
Easy work.
He's doing kendo.
He wants me to take pictures of
him practicing in the morning.
"Breath of the Japanese."
Bosses...
Good work.
What?
Work.
You know?
What is it?
What is it?
It's always work.
- It's work.
- It isn't!
Why?
Unhappy?
It won't always be work!
You won't go anywhere with me.
You haven't eaten out with me!
OK.
I'm so lonely.
It's tough.
Mom's waiting.
I have work early in the morning.
How old are you?
What about it?
It matters!
Mom. Work.
There is something else, isn't it?
No, but I can't help it.
Let's go out next time.
Drive?
You said the same last time!
Hear this.
I'll get a phone.
My place.
You can call from the office.
If I call from there,
we can't talk for long.
Really?
- Isn't that expensive?
- Yes.
You're rich.
It's convenient.
That manga is so interesting?
But I'm bored.
Read this?
When I'm done.
Read this?
- Why?
- Don't want to.
Listen.
- I said listen.
- What?
Mom...
she...
is away for 2, 3 days.
Can I stay?
Yes! Of course.
OK?
Good.
Yummy,
Yummy?
- You like curry?
- Very much.
Yes!
Yes!
- Ms. Suzuki.
- Yes?
Come in.
- Circular,
- Thank you.
Telephone?
Keiko.
- Keiko?
- Wait a second.
You're here.
Come when you're done.
I'll be right there.
Hello? I'm sorry.
Yes.
Oh really?
That's OK.
I'll call again...
some other time.
Yes.
No... Thank you.
Sorry to disturb you.
Welcome home.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year.
Back from home?
How are you?
What is it?
Hey.
You're angry?
Hey.
You're angry?
Good phone.
It's good.
What is it?
Because I didn't call?
I was in Kyushu.
The work took much time.
About 3 weeks.
Liar!
Liar?
It was only 3 days!
How did you know?
I called your company.
I told you not to call there.
Why?
Because you haven't called.
Only 3 weeks!
What did they say?
You're married?
Oh.
Real angry?
I told you I love you.
That's it.
Won't forgive me?
Is it a boy?
A girl?
No.
Leave.
I don't want to see you.
Leave now!
Get up and leave!
Serious?
Out!
That's it?
Shut up and go!
Bye.
Well then.
I'll call you?
- Can you take this?
- [told you...
Say "Good Day" first.
- No more senbei?
- Ouch!
What?
What?
Ouch!
To the centre, please.
- Here?
- The centre.
- Here?
- Where I can photo you.
Can you?
The cherry blossoms too?
- They're in the picture?
- Yes.
Can't get a focus.
Oh?
The face would look silly.
My hands all OK like this.
Here we go.
1,2... 0h?
- Sorry.
- I'll wait a bit.
Your hair.
- Done.
- This is not a pose!
- Ready?
- Ready.
Don't fall down.
Yes.
So long?
- I'll sit.
- You'll sit?
Sit? Or this?
Catcha!
- Oh?
- Oh?
How many times do I have to...
- Sitting”?
- Yes. - I'll...
Why?
Why?
Strange.
- Someone taught you how?
- I have the manual.
When you borrowed this.
Only 2... 3 photos left.
It will work this time.
- The tree too...
- Still nothing...
Done!
Finally.
Hello.
Dad?
Again?
No.
No.
I'm busy. Can't come home.
I said no.
I understand...
Wait.
No!
I don't want to get married now!
This has nothing to do with me.
Is there any?
Yes.
And this.
Kazuyo. Kazuyo?
- Yes?
- Want some coffee?
Yes.
- Keiko?
- What? Yes.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Sure...
For everybody?
It was fun last time.
Yes. Very much.
It was a bit tiring at the end.
For both of us.
- It got a little...
- It was interesting.
Next time let's be more relaxed.
Yes.
When we will go out again?
Weekend is not so...
Maybe sometimes.
On weekend, you're...
- at home?
- Yes.
We'll see each other at the office.
Yes...
Yes...
I don't really like going out.
- Really?
- Really.
It's about time. I'm going home.
Why?
It's getting late.
May I keep this?
Of course.
Let's go out again?
- What?
- Yes?
I'd like to go out with you.
You don't want to let me go?
We aren't spending
much time together.
Oh yes...
- You detest me?
- No!
I don't detest you, but.
But we meet
every day at the office.
You're strange.
Tomorrow...
Monday?
Tomorrow is Monday.
You live far from here?
That's OK. I'll see you home.
How to say this...
I have things...
that I want to talk about.
- What is it...
- It's...
What is it?
Strange.
We talk a lot at the office.
- Let's go?
- Yes.
Now.
- I'll see you home.
- Yes.
Your room is cute!
A bit stuffy.
It's very girlish!
Sit there.
- It's your bed?
- Yes. - May I?
- I'll make tea.
- You have coffee?
I have instant.
Then coffee for me.
Whose painting is this?
I drew it.
Once I wanted to be a painter.
You paint?
Now I don't.
I really didn't know.
I've never mentioned it.
Really?
I'll put the raw food in the fridge
before Mariko arrives.
When will she come?
She's coming.
When she phones,
then we'll go fetch her.
An egg is broken.
It's Mariko. Pick it up.
- Shall I?
- Pick it up.
- Hello. Mariko?
- I said so.
Where are you?
- We'll go now?
- Yes.
Oh come on!
Why?
What?
We bought enough for 3.
Tell her we'll wait for her.
What time then?
Until 117
Take a taxi.
All night long. Yes.
Really?
- Oh no!
- Let me.
Hello.
Listen. Don't spend all your time
with your boyfriend.
Come drink and chat with us girls.
Who?
That's OK.
Next time then.
So,
say hello for us.
I understand.
Bye.
Do what you like!
- She's so...
- Yes!
- She stood us up.
- And I bought a lot.
Always with her boyfriend!
She shouldn't!
She should hang out with
girls once in a while!
What now?
- Us two?
- Yes.
No other way.
- Are you hungry?
- No.
- We don't have to eat now.
- Right.
Bathhouse?
- OK. After a bath, we'll eat.
- Yes!
We'll be hungry then,
and we'll drink and eat a lot!
So be it?
I think so too.
Let's go.
For two.
I'll put it here?
Keiko.
What's up?
- Long time no see.
- Not working?
It's closed today.
- Bumping into each other here!
Can't believe it! - Me too.
Now you don't come
to the bar anymore!
How about... that man?
You were with him last time.
Now he doesn't come too.
I wonder what happened.
Are you living with each other,
got married or what.
No. Something's happened...
Something? What is it?
You don't come at all!
All of a sudden!
- I'm busy.
- You're busy?
- OK
- I'll come again.
Here I come.
We'll get some beer.
- 50 yen each.
- 50 yen each.
Here?
- Some more coins?
- Get some more.
1,2,3..
4,5. Now! Now!
...5. Now!
1,2,3,4,5
Now!
One more. 1...
1,2.
3.
4... Now!
- 4
- This is cold!
- OK?
- Too cold!
- I'll take these.
- Yes.
We'll drink them?
- Who's that girl?
- Ah...
She's the waitress of
that snack bar.
She was talking about Terayama?
Terayama?
- No?
- No.
Someone else.
You and Terayama...
is over?
I've heard.
No.
No? He's been chasing you.
Just friends.
He's a good person,
but I hate men.
You hate men?
- Wow.
- No!
I don't mean that.
- But he's good, right?
- Very good. Very nice.
I got to know him,
but is he really...
Terayama told you?
No.
- Then how...
-l can see it!
- Really?
- I'm at the office too!
But I didn't talk about
that at the office.
It was...
you went out in the afternoon?
Then he went out too.
You got back,
it's like he's pursuing you.
Then we all know.
- You all know?
- Yes.
- Oh no...
- Shocked?
It's no big deal.
No big deal, but you all
think that we're in love?
You and the others.
You mean about you and Terayama?
Not really...
that you're in love,
but Terayama has no one else.
Just you.
- I think so.
- Oh no...
- You're a drinker?
- It's whisky.
You can drink.
- 6 cans of beer.
- It's a lot.
There are still 5 or 6 cans.
And so...
who's that man?
If he isn't Terayama, then who?
- He?
- Yes.
I'm not a virgin.
You're quiet at work.
- So you were pretending...
- to be innocent.
Virgin!
You were pretending?
I can't see that.
I was madly in love.
- Really?
- Yes.
Drink!
- Let's drink.
- OK?
To get you talking.
Once in a while.
Yes?
I really loved him.
And now?
Still a bit.
I want to marry him.
Really? That's great.
No. It's just me.
- What a pity
- Yes.
Who is he?
He's married.
He's married and has kids.
I didn't know.
- Still seeing him?
- No.
We quarrelled, then we split.
- You left him?
- I said some mean things.
- You didn't know at first?
- Right.
But do you still miss him?
I don't know
if I'm still thinking of him.
I gave him up...
but I love him.
I see.
- You've stopped seeing him?
- Right.
Is that a good thing?
- Is that a good thing or not?
- It is.
Yes?
I feel sorry for Terayama,
but [ can't.
I just can't.
- You can't forget him?
- Right.
Let's not say that
I can't forget him,
But I'm through...
with men.
- Through?
- Yes.
But you can't forget him either?
Right.
But you'd better forget him.
Right!
Married and has kids!
- Yes.
- Tricky.
Yes.
Such practical matters...
are important to you?
You can't ignore that?
I can't.
So that's it.
I can't.
Through with men?
Through.
Let's change the topic.
Let's.
Hey Where's this place?
Somewhere near my high school.
- Osaka?
- A rare sight, isn't it?
I really didn't know you can paint.
Next time you'll take me somewhere.
For a sketch. OK?
Slowly...
Isn't that bad?
You're up?
What do you want for breakfast?
Good morning.
I have a headache.
- You drank a lot.
- Too much.
Some water?
Thanks.
Thanks.
You OK?
Feeling OK?
- Like a rock.
- Really?
I go buy some pills for you?
Yes.
- Aspirin.
- Aspirin?
- Any drugstore?
- Yes. I think so.
I'll buy some for you.
The drugstore...
you know that "Ken" snack bar?
Go pass it,
you'll see a post box.
Then turn right.
OK.
Going now.
- Up already?
- Yes.
Are these OK?
They're small.
Thanks.
Water?
Take one pill.
It's so beautiful.
- Gorgeous.
- Isn't it?
You can't tell
it's so gorgeous at night.
- Takagaike Pond is around here?
- Yes.
How about we sketch there, Teacher?
Yes? No?
Let's go.
How's your head?
It works?
- Does it work?
- Yes.
It should. Aspirin...
Can you? Let's sketch.
Sketch? Today?
Yes?
Today...
- I want to be alone.
- No?
It feels so good here.
Next time?
You alone today?
Thinking about something?
- Well...
- Yesterday?
- Yes.
- What?
Let's forget that.
- OK
- OK?
- That's what you want?
- Yes.
It's so strange...
Don't fuss over it.
It's nothing really.
It's no big deal.
So don't fuss over it.
So...
don't fuss over it.
You looked so stern.
Bye.
See you tomorrow.
See you at work.
Take care.
Punch in for me.
Morning.
- Good morning.
- Good morning!
Good morning. Sorry.
- Hey you!
- Sorry for Saturday.
Sorry for what?
- Sorry.
- For what?
How was it?
- Such a long date.
- Sorry.
You always say you'll come,
but you never!
- Yummy?
- We ate your share too!
- All of it?
- Sure!
- Wow!
- And we drank.
Wow.
You drank through the night?
That's the plan,
but we fell asleep.
Of course you did!
- I stayed the night there.
- You did?
- A bad hangover.
- Really?
You too?
Real bad.
Let's drink next time.
Just like that.
You'll come?
- Through the night?
- Yes.
- We won't sleep.
- Yes.
Let's start working.
Well then.
I'll be waiting.
Bye.
Yes.
Yes...
Come in.
Come in!
Come in, painter.
Yes...
Take this...
You took an hour!
There?
- What?
- What?
Look at that!
1 million deposit...
2 million deposit!
Let's go in?
- An apartment.
- Yes.
They may have it inside.
- Try it.
- Really?
There's none.
One more.
Tired?
If it's possible...
around 50,000.
50,000 each month.
Somewhere cheap to start with.
Everybody says so.
Everybody wants it cheap and good.
But that's impossible.
An old place will do.
Old or new, it's always
the location that sets the rent.
Then somewhere a bit far away.
Inconvenient...
There is one.
A house for 50,000 yen a month.
- 50,000?
- The owner wants 60,000...
the owner may say yes
to 50,000 for you two.
The owner have to see you first.
That's mean!
Shhh!
It's too small for two!
And it smells so musty.
He didn't tell us that.
Let's call him.
- You call him.
- OK.
That's great, thanks!
We'll check it out.
Bye.
One more!
There's one more.
He knows the owner personally.
It's far but available.
The owner's son is studying in UK.
Two more years.
He won't renovate it
but that's OK for 2 years.
- OK..
- We'll see it first?
Hello.
I'm Teramoto.
All of a sudden, sorry...
Don't mention it.
Just a few steps from here.
Over there.
Just 200 metres.
It's near.
Follow me.
Thank you.
We're still eating it...
No lock.
It's old.
A bit heavy.
Like it?
It's old.
Wow.
What a view!
- It's not dusty.
- Right.
- Easy.
- It's clean.
Like a granny's.
It isn't dirty.
It's well kept.
The owner's son took good care of it.
It really isn't dusty.
Quite clean.
Not much work to do.
On this wood...
you can still see
where the branches were.
It must worth a lot.
Scary!
I don't dare to touch it.
I'm an idiot
You're an idiot
What are you doing?
Swatch!
Be careful with this.
It's old.
So I took it.
It's your Mom's?
My granny's.
- So heavy.
- There are bugs.
Go.
Up.
Oh!
- What's wrong?
- A crack.
It isn't used for long.
- It's almost dry.
- Good.
Coming in.
Oh!
Smart girl.
This is perfect.
Here I come.
I'm so tired.
Tired.
That slope is steep.
Is it raining?
Are you done?
Wait.
- I'm tired.
- Hold on.
I'm tired!
Sorry.
You can move your hand now.
Sorry.
- Thanks!
- Thank you!
It will flap.
- How?
- Feel the patch?
- Press on it
- Press?
- Will it flap up and down?
- Then tie it tighter.
- What is this?
- Direction indicator.
This is the chock.
You won't use it.
No?
This is the rear brake.
This is the front brake.
Get it?
This is the klaxon.
Here?
Let's stop here.
OK.
It's nice here.
Hey.
What?
Work...
you'll keep working there?
Yes.
it's already 6 years,
that I've been there.
So,
I want to start
a business if I can.
Hey.
If I really do so,
what should I do?
Up to now,
I work in fashion.
So,
I should start a boutique or so.
We can...
take some prints from
our present company.
Or get some leftover.
I think we can...
start a business like that.
You agree?
You aren't listening?
Listen!
- A shop?
- Yes.
Just a little bit more.
It's not today or tomorrow,
I want to save up some more,
maybe 2 or 3 months.
There are snack bars, right?
After work,
I can work at such places until 12.
After 2 or 3 months,
I'll save enough money.
It's too tough.
It is. I'll hang on.
If I do that,
well...
I need money...
to start up, and keep it
running for several months.
This must be included.
I think 2 or 3 months are enough.
So if I do this,
I can't do it on my own.
So I want you to help me.
What do you think?
Well... is it possible?
Is it possible?
If I'm doing it with you,
I think it's possible.
Me?
- Welcome home.
- I'm home.
It's really late.
Yes, very late.
- You've been waiting?
- Not really.
- You're drunk?
- No!
Am I drunk?
- Want some water?
- Yes, please.
I'm...
feeling so high.
Like I'm spinning.
It's been a while that
you drank so much?
You said you won't drink for real.
Thanks.
How do you feel?
Very fine.
Too fine.
I sang.
They handed me a mic.
"What?" I said.
Then they made me sing.
"Oh no!" I said.
"Just sing what you know." They said.
"I don't know any!"
Then I sang a folk song.
So embarrassing!
A lot of young people there.
That's good.
You come with me next time.
I'll introduce you.
What are their occupations?
Nothing to do with fashion.
Really? There's no one you know?
- Is there any?
- That's embarrassing!
- Who?
- He works hard in daytime.
The supervisor?
Never mind!
It's a lot of fun there.
My boss is a very nice woman.
So it's mostly...
- male customers.
- Really?
Managers, nice men.
Good.
Many male customers.
They feel...
so old-fashioned.
- That kind of men.
- Really?
- After a drink, they talk freely.
- Must be fun.
Those men.
They may look horny
but they mean no harm.
You're popular.
What if I have to
do this every day?
Drinking a lot at night.
It's just me,
drinking against
many men every night.
That's too much.
How about modelling?
- Yes, but occasionally.
- Hey!
For me.
Making any progress
on your painting?
- Today, not much.
- You aren't doing it?
- I was, just then.
- Really?
I'll do it for you.
When I feel well.
- Oh... - I'm so tired today.
- Are you?
I'll hang on!
Stuck?
A letter.
From who?
A love letter?
Dad.
- What?
- From Dad.
Your Dad?
- Yes.
- About what?
I don't know.
Serious?
What is it?
I have to go home.
Blind date.
Don't decide for me!
What?
I'll choose the one I like.
It's just...
- for your sake!
- Why?
It's always our relatives
or my brother!
That Minoru!
I don't care!
You're...
- not a kid anymore!
- That's why...
I'll choose the one I like!
I'm not a kid!
- I...
- You stay out of it!
Why won't you listen to me?
I won't go.
I hear that...
you do kendo?
A bit.
And you like hiking?
- Yes.
- About hiking...
in the past, she used to...
hike a lot with me...
when she's in high school.
I see.
How about you?
Any hiking recently?
- No.
- What?
- I've been so busy...
- Oh.
In the future,
you can take Nakamura
to go hiking.
How about...
to Natsuyama, for example?
I hope Nakamura
would turn me down.
Even if he turns you down,
your Dad will find
some other men.
You're of age.
In fact, it depends on you.
Better say no if you don't want it,
right?
Yes...
it's been so many times.
You went this time.
Blind date, yes.
I got used to it.
If I refuse to go,
what would happen?
- You OK?
- Yes.
I woke you up?
That's OK.
I feel great.
- You OK?
- I'm OK.
It's Saturday.
- You shook me.
- It's full house.
So many orders.
Have you set the alarm?
- Yes.
- We'll go tomorrow.
- Yes.
- Wake me up.
- Can you wake up?
- Yes. Oh! It's past 1:30!
Just a bit after 1:30.
Better sleep now.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
Wake me up! Wake me up!
- Remember!
- Yes. - OK.
Kazuyo.
It's morning.
Kazuyo.
Kazuyo.
It's morning.
It's morning!
I'm so sorry!
Sorry!
Why didn't you wake me up?
You were fast asleep.
I didn't know I slept so long.
Now I'm awake.
How was it?
It's bad now.
It got cloudy suddenly.
- Really?
- It's cloudy now.
But where's the sun?
It was just 10 minutes.
Now you can't?
Tired?
No.
- Sleepy?
- No.
It's so cloudy now.
What a pity
I need to come early next time.
Early... let's get up early!
My nose...
let's get up early?
- Let's go.
- We'll leave now? - Yes.
Well then,
that's nothing I can do.
OK.
Thanks for all these years.
I thank you too.
Thank you very much.
Please tell the others for me.
I haven't told them.
I will.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Take care.
Please forgive me for...
leaving like this.
I thought...
I could go on living with you...
in such bliss.
Living with you,
meeting you,
I was really happy.
No one has ever understood
me like you did.
No one has been so nice
to me like you did.
There will never be...
someone like you.
But...
it's something...
that can't be helped.
Having destroyed all these,
I.
feel so bad about myself.
Forever...
forever...
it's you...
that I'll love with all my heart.
I.
haven't left here.
My love will always remain here.
I feel so sad,
so I took your portrait with me.
As if I didn't draw it myself,
you'll always be on my side.
But...
in fact,
I'm really very sad.
