Episode 66
Why did I have to run into Kota again?
If I hadn't I wouldn't have had to suffer as I did.
Madam your drink is ready.
Grandma...
I ruined Okayo's life.
Her whole life.
I see...
Okayo's gone back home.
I was traveling for about six months.
She waited for you.
I had no idea you two were friends again.
I didn't even know that you were in Tokyo.
What do you do now?
- I'm a hairdresser. - As a live-in?
I trained for three years
but I've been on my own for a month now.
I'm glad. I heard the study period is pretty tough.
But it's best for a woman to be able to stand alone.
Congratulations!
I have no right to say such things to you.
I haven't the right even to face you.
You must think that I'm terrible.
It's all right... It's all in the past.
You must be hungry I'll fix you something.
It was May 20th...
I got off the train at Sakata and waited for you.
I was going to take you with me to Tokyo no matter what.
But Okayo came in your place.
She told me you were getting married.
Ceremonial gifts were to be exchanged that day.
I felt glad for you.
No matter how much I loved you
I didn't think I could ever make you happy.
A man who's devoted to the labor movement shouldn't be married.
But...
Please take good care of Miss Okayo.
She's still waiting for you.
Please call her in Sakata now or she'll be forced to take a husband.
- There's still time! - Oshin...
Kaga-ya has nobody else they can make their heir since Osayo died.
Miss Okayo has been forced to take over the business.
She waited for you.
She's only doing this because she hasn't heard from you.
But she told me she'll come back to Tokyo the minute you returned.
- I'll call her. - Don't!
If Okayo has decided to get married let her.
Why?
She loves only you!
She'll get on the first train to get back to you.
What good will it do for her to come back to Tokyo?
She'll just have more heartache.
You don't understand how a woman feels.
She'll suffer any hardship for the man she loves.
She waited for you for over three years!
Okayo had a sister when I first met her
but now the situation has totally changed.
Okayo is the only heiress now.
We ought to just let her continue the Kaga-ya business.
But...
Don't tell her I came back.
I'll never see Okayo again.
Are you sure?
You didn't come back here to see her?
No.
We're not real lovers.
She's been good to me. I'll admit that.
But she was just filling the void left in my heart created by you.
That's all it was.
It won't change that even if she came back now.
She knows all that. Yet she still wants you.
I know how she feels.
A woman can be happy loving like that.
She needs true happiness. Not happiness I can give her.
- Kota... - You too.
I'm glad we parted as platonic lovers.
If you had come with me that day I would've made you unhappy too.
You're strong.
I want you to keep on growing.
A time will come when a woman can be free.
Let me stay here for a few days.
And I want to be left alone.
He's been here waiting for you.
Sorry I'm late.
Thank you for your help the other day.
Okayo called again today. She sounded depressed.
She says you haven't called.
You haven't heard from Kota?
Then call her and tell her that.
I'm getting a little concerned too.
You can use the phone at my place.
She'll feel better if you call.
- You're so nice to other women! - This is serious!
Thank you for all your help.
I just feel sorry for Okayo.
She must be having a tough time of it.
I think I'll go to Sakata.
Oshin's come for Kayo's wedding!
I had no idea you were ill.
It's nothing...
I'm only sad that I can't be at the wedding.
But I have no regrets knowing that Kaga-ya will be in good hands.
Kayo has no real sister to count on so be a good friend to her.
Oshin!
If you should ever see Kota again try and get back together.
I know he hasn't forgotten you.
No... I have no right to see Kota ever again.
I have a request.
Please let me do your hair for the wedding.
I'm not that good at Japanese-style hair
but I want to do a good job for you.
I want to help comfort you.
Thank you Oshin.
On the morning of Kayo's wedding
Oshin did Kayo's hair and she didn't tell her about Kota.
She believed that was best for Kayo and Kaga-ya.
Oshin had chosen Kayo's life for her.
And she prayed she made the right
decision for her as she did her hair.
Thanks Kei.
If Okayo had come back to Tokyo and seen Kota
her life would have been different.
Not just hers... Everybody else's lives too.
You'd better change and go to sleep.
I didn't tell her... I betrayed her!
I should've told her no matter what Kota said.
Then I wouldn't have to live in regret.
It's all my fault...
I ruined Okayo's life!
Kei had never heard his grandmother speak of regrets
or seen her show so much vulnerability.
Kei could also feel the pain Oshin had hidden in her heart.
But he had no way of knowing all the implications
of what Oshin was talking about.
