Do you know "Heidi, Girl of the Alps"?
That's the one with the dog called Patrasche? That's "Dog of Flanders"
A racoon… Rascal!
I know it it, since it's Heidi
By the way, the goat that Joseph the dog watched was
Yuki-chan!
And it was such an amazingly lovely tale of friendship
I was really moved when Clara stood up
And Peter falls in love because Clara is so divine.
So there's this love triangle with Heidi- (Kiko) How dare you look at this beautiful friendship story with dirty eyes!
So, how many people are left?
I want to go to this school
It will be 1,200,000 yen just for exam fees and tuition
I want to help you
Rika… Mama, let's go home together
The most important thing to me
is that my whole family is smiling
You'll lose everything if everyone knows your secret.
Did you talk to Kamahara Kiko about me?
What? Am I being cornered again?
Marie-san, good morning!
I thought about it and decided to let Haruto take the exam
Will you guide me? Marie-san?
Kiko-san, did you know?
Were you... the one who sent the message?
Message?
Never approach me!
(Mamiko) ｢She said she'd let Haruto take the exam｣
(Mother A) ｢Was Kiko just pretending to be an outside all this time?｣
(Mother A) ｢I wonder why Marie-san did that｣
(Mother B) ｢I wonder where Haruto-kun will take the exam for｣
(Mother C) ｢I wonder why Marie-san did that｣
(Several Mothers) ｢Surely Kamahara-san did something improper｣
☎ It isn't possible to answer the phone now
☎ Please leave your name and message
☎ after the tone
Hello, Marie-san? This is Kiko
Um, let's talk properly
Please, let's meet once…
Yes
(Male Voice) Good morning, Missus!
How did you...
It's possible for a wife to make a million yen a month working 3 times a week
Doesn't that sound like good work after hearing that?
When you aren't making money it creates problems for me, too!
Don't talk so loudly, please
Wow, cool Now you're doing side work
Please stop
How long will it take you to pay your debt doing this?
Debt? All total it's 879,260 yen
How do you know about…
You borrowed the money from our subsidiary, ConferQuikLoans
Subsidiary… You're wondering how long you
must drink tea with that old man to make a million yen
Do what you must, just sleep with him!
If you do it quickly, you pay off your debt and we make a profit
Hanpen
Sorry to have kept you waiting
Can you really prepare for the exam?
Parents prepare for many years, in order
to allow their child to do their best
On that crucial day. For someone to suddenly say
"I'll let my child take an entrance exam next month"
Do you think that will go well?
Honestly, I never thought about exams
before we started at Shizuku kindergarten
But Haruto himself started to ask to do it,
so I also thought it was good
Because I've no money for it, should I say give up?
Or make an excuse like he isn't suitable? And make no effort as a parent?
Is that good?
But...
Fortunately, I am able to get a loan
So I'll do extra work
It's seems I can get the money sorted at the last minute
Even so, it's still really hard. It'll be fine, one way or the other
Thank you for being concerned about me
I'm not particularly worried about you but...
I want to concentrate on Yuuki's exam soon,
So be careful not to fall down
Haruto, do you still want to go to that school?
I do!
All right then
Thanks for your hard work
Kun-chan, starting tomorrow evening, would you accept the rice deliveries?
Huh? You and Haruto-chan going to be having dinner?
I'm leaving dinner in Grandpa's hands I have work to do
Is it because of Haruto's exam?
Yeah
Starting today I've got a part-time cleaning job
For Haruto's sake, I will do it!

Marie-san…
Did you have a fight? No
(Fune) Yuuki-kun, is there something wrong?
This month's score: 62
This business... is it fatiguing you maybe?
But, there's still time. Yes, thank you
Kamiya-san Sakurako-chan, wonderful!
So much improvement!
If this trend continues it won't be a dream to join the Aoi girls
Yes Yay!
You've hung in there. This is the result of a mother's effort
Thank you! After one month!
Don't relax! Show your guts! Guts!
Keep it up!
Thank you
(Mother D) Doesn't Kamiya-san know?
(Mother E) Sakurako-chan was looking at the other student's work again
Once we're home, let's study more OK!
If we don't receive a payment by the end of the month
we'll have no choice but to talk with your husband
Let's go
Kamiya Yuki
Can we meet tomorrow?
Kun-chan, I'm off on a delivery OK, take care OK
Haruto, she went to work already today
I'll give you a persimmon to eat later
Really? Yippee!
You rented a room at a hotel?
I'm also looking for work
If I don't secure a foothold somehow
I'll never be able to get Rika back
So, have you been able to meet with Rika-chan?
Yes, after the chorus recital
I was told to return home together but I can't go back
Even to be with her in the long run, I couldn't endure it
Despite that, I can't help but worry...
Whether she's eaten or if she's sleeping properly at night
At bedtime, she has a habit of touching my hair while falling asleep…
Ah, I'm sorry
It's fine…
Anyway, no point in thinking about past things
I haven't yet decided on a job
Gotou-san
I am utterly sorry!
It's all my fault
Without encouragement from Midori-san I put myself where I don't belong
I will never meet with her again, so...
Please forgive Midori-san
Let her meet with Rika-chan, please!
I beg you!
(Shuuhei) You're a mere soccer coach
Did you think I'd forgive you or something?
You have no right to say such things concerning my wife
Sheet: Aoi Girls Elementary School Examination Information
(Fune) Sakurako-chan, wonderful! So much improvement!
If this trend continues it won't be a dream to join the Aoi girls
Various costs for the school e.g. Entrance fee, class fee etc.
I want to help you
They say that old man showed you 1 million yen
Do what you should, sleep with him!
Hey Yuki What?
Nothing. Just been repeating "I'm home" endlessly
Welcome home What were you doing?
Just as thought, I'm against this,
You shouldn't overstretch yourself, don't do the examinations
It's too late to be saying that now and I've already told you many times,
These past 2 years I've sacrificed everything
for the sake of her doing her best on these exams
I'm not going to stop now just when her grades are rising…
Grades? On what?
Practice drills, online mock exams, that kind of thing.
Well, if you say so, then it's fine
We can pay tuition fees- It's fine
because I'm doing all the finances properly
(Mother E) Sakurako-chan was looking at the other student's work again
(Mother D) Doesn't Kamiya-san know?
Can we meet?
It's a lot quieter now
The prep starts at Cram School and it's one month until the exams...
Every year, when this time rolls around I wonder
Is this really what kindergarten should be like?
To change it you admitted Kamahara-san
But they too are taking the exams it seems I wonder if they can really do it?
So sorry--Hurry up Good day
Good morning Grandpa will do the pickup today
Haruto, you and Grandpa will eat together today, OK
And go to bed early Gotta go. Thanks
Haruto-kun, let's be artists New pastels came in
OK Let's go
How nice
Thanks for waiting. Shall we go? Yes
Yuki-chan
Here's your change See you next time
Thank you
What?
Kiko, it's bad, really bad
What is? ☎ I didn't tell you before but
but I ran into Yuki-chan ☎ Where?
The Royal Tower Hotel. Seems she’s drowing in debt...
Debt!? ☎ Some creepy old dude was on her shoulder
☎ That dude’s with her right now. Seems like Yuki is going to do something strange-
What are you doing, part-timer? Hurry up. You’re late
That was delicious today too Thank you
I’ve been thinking about how to seize the dream
One has to give up something equally as important as that dream
Shall we go?
Yuki!
I’m sorry. I just remembered some urgent business
Hey, Yuki. What’s your relationship with that person?
Are you really in debt? It’s none of your business
Whatever I'm doing with anyone is none of your business
No way! You can't be doing that sort of thing?
Where'd this come from?
Don’t tell me that old man- Mind your own business
Yuki...why?
Don't you ever think about it?
The difference between us and the people at Shizuku Preschool…
The life of those people is like another world
You never thought to let Haruto take the exams, so you've never had to associate with people like that.
Even though we're at the same Pre-School, Even though we go to the same places, the tools we use are completely different
I think it’s sad
I put up with it so that Sakurako can be happy
Unless I change something Sakurako will also not be able to enter that world
But-- I will stretch out my body for her sake
Am I bothering anyone?
(Shinnosuke) Isn't it amazing! It's original
When you finish please let me see it
Haruto-kun, will you have a little talk with Director-sensei?
(Fumi) That's a good boy
Hello. Grandpa...
Huh? Haruto!?
Haruto, are you OK?
Sorry to call when you are busy
Ah, over there
Haruto, why did you do a thing like that?
If you want to drink something, you should ask Grandpa
Also, don't touch broken glass Do you understand?
No, no. It was all Grandpa's fault
If I had been watching you properly it wouldn’t have happened, Haruto
Haruto?
Yes
All right…
(Shinnosuke) I'm sorry to bother you
Shinnosuke-sensei, come in
Sorry to intrude
What's going on? I would ask the same of you
I was told at Gohanya that you were here
What happened?
He wanted to get something to drink and dropped the glass
Kamahara-san, do you have a moment?
OK
Um. Isn't it possible
that Haruto was trying to be helpful?
Oh? Seeing that Kamahara-san is troubled
maybe he wanted to help by washing dishes?
In fact, today, even though Haruto was painting pictures as usual
it wasn't a normal picture that he drew...
So I wondered if he was lonely
Certainly, I've been busy
Maybe I allowed Haruto to feel neglected
I think taking the examinations are a very good thing
Studying in a well-equipped environment is good for children
Of course I think that the privilege should be given to Haruto-kun too
But, when looking at the both of you recently
Honestly, I have no idea whether it's really a good thing or not.
Ah, I said something unnecessary
Please don't listen to me, I was just worried…
Excuse me
Anyways, I'm rooting for Kamahara-san
Yes, you're right, I'm Gotou
Is that so? I understand
If something comes up, please contact me
(Satoko) That's weird, even though you could do it before
It's fine, as you still have a month
Let's work hard together (Yuuki) Yeah
Mother
(Shizuko) You've done quite a lot, rest early
If he fails on the actual day, we won't have the same child as before.
I think she's saying harsh words with the intention of making fun of the fact she would've said such things seriously in the past
Thank you
Risho High School?
I was thinking of admitting Akira
Eh? We can get it done in time, if we do it now
If he enters high school, that child's future will change
Marie
It can't be helped to be impatient
There's no point doing all this,
unless he's also interested in it.
In this situation,
we have no idea if he'll go outside and do the test.
More importantly Makoto- This is a matter you really don't care about, right?
You really have no interest concerning Akira, right?
Forget it.
I'll protect Akira on my own
Tomorrow, a large amount of money will be coming in
so I will pay it with that without fail.
12pm Royal Tower Hotel
[TV] Then, the next news is
I'm home Welcome Back
[TV] Developing a City Hotel and other building. They are 4th in the industry
[TV] it was officially announced that Odadera Group has bought Laulea Holdings
As I thought, Odadera-san is amazing~ He is a man of another level
[TV] Odadera Group has made it to the top of their industry
By the way, it's Yuki's birthday soon.
I took a paid leave on Monday the 5th,
Let's go on a date while Sakurako is in Pre-School
Cannot (Kyouji) Eh~ Why?
It's been a while
I am busy with things relating to the exams, and on Monday…
There is a lunch meeting at Satoko's place
(Ryouji) That's boring
Kamahara-san, I'll leave the outside to you Ok
But, when looking at the both of you recently
Honestly, I have no idea whether it's really a good thing or not
(Hidenori) It seems like she is in debt
I am taking the risk while doing it for the sake of my child
Yes? Kiko-chan!
Er… Is Yuki here?
She said she was going to a lunch meeting at Yano-san's place
Lunch meeting? (Ryouji) Did you not go, Kiko-chan?
Ahh Yes! I was busy with work, I forgot that I turned them down
Ah, I'm sorry
Hello
Kiko, Yuki-chan is with that man again
What?
The same hotel as the other day...
What?
☎ She entered a room now, on the 45th floor…
Ryouji-san, sorry for bothering you
Kiko-chan?
Alright…
Do you want something?
(Sameshima) Sit
Yuki-chan
Yes?
Do you know why I chose you?
I like fair-skinned women
If it's fair-skinned you want, there are other people…
(Sameshima) You are having troubles with money
In other words, if money is placed in your hands,
and with my refined hobby,
I thought you would never say no.
Refined... hobby?
I am not interested in that kind of act
(Sameshima) On the other side of these cameras there are a lot of gentlemen
waiting for you...
You know what I am trying to say right?
Give your daughter,
A wonderful life with wonderful things in it.
Yuki! Yuki, you're in there right?
Yuki! Hey, please open up here!
Kiko...
(Sameshima) It seems like it's that young lady again
Yuki, let's go
I'm sorry, but please pretend like none of it happened
Let's go
Hey... hey Kiko!
It would've all worked out if I'd had a little longer-
Are you saying that earnestly!? Isn't your hands shaking?
In fact, you were scared right? Even if I'm scared, I had to do it!
Paying the debt with that money, allowing Sakurako to take the exams…
You know that Sakurako's results have improved
If she maintains her marks, she can enter Aoi Women's Affiliated… I know!
The reason her results went up is all thanks to cheating
Cheating?
It's not just me. I think the other mother's,
Except you, know
(Fune) If you continue on like this Aoi Women's Affiliated is not a dream
I think Sakurako-chan wanted her mom to be happy and I'm sure tried her very best
Children work hard for their parents, parents also work hard for their children
I can understand a little of Yuki's feelings
When you have no power,
if you did not give enough to your children,
you feel regret.
But this is wrong
If you really wanted Sakurako to take the exams, you should have told Kyouji-san the truth
The places where it's lacking, isn't it fine if you work diligently?
Yuki has Kyouji-san also right?
I can't speak to him about these things...
Firstly, if I worked and was seen by the moms in the Pre-School-
What are you doing?! Wake up!
Let me say this clearly
Yuki is wrong
On top of it, you are not admitting you are wrong which makes you a big idiot
It's true that in the world, you can't live in simplicity
Decide on your resolution yourself.
And those people who take the risk,
the people around them have no the right to find fault with them.
But...
Why didn't you consult someone?
Why didn't you talk to someone?
I'm not asking you to go around borrowing money from people
But, if it's to talk, I can do it
Don't tell me it's none of my business
We
are friends right?
Hey Kiko, what are you doing!? It is because Yuki pulled me
I didn't pull you. Isn't it because Kiko lost balance? It's my fault again?
You're the same as you were in the past, only thinking about yourself and blaming others. It's your fault!
I'm sorry
Kiko
I'm sorry Kiko
I'm sorry
(Shinnosuke) Please take note. This concludes the monthly meeting
In addition, those who need their child's record, please come to the director's office
Thank you for your hard work
Excuse me
I have something to tell everyone
I have been lying to everyone
My husband is not a bureaucrat
He is just a civil servant
My house is also not a detached house
I also do not have a car, and I lied about graduating from a Women's University
I was envious of everyone
I wanted to be like everyone…
I tried my best, doing more than I can handle...
But, I'm stopping it already
The exams too... we won't participate.
For lying to everyone until now, I'm sorry
(Satoko) Yuki-san…
Did you really think
that your lies wouldn't be found out?
(Mamiko) Everyone knew,
about the fact you were lying.
Isn't it exaggerating to apologise for such a thing?
Satoko-san
Besides, there is no need for you to stop the exams
It would be okay to take a National exam
The tuition fee is also not that expensive
Sakurako-chan and you, both of you,
have been working hard all the way up to now,
What if you do that?
Thank you
(Shinnosuke) Thank you for your hard work (Fumi) Thank you for your hard work
Kamahara-san, a word with you
Shinnosuke-sensei, join us too, for a bit
This is what Haruto drew
Haruto did?
(Fumi) I won't say that he has forgotten his mom's face,
but this shows what he's currentlly feeling...
Why do you think he endured the loneliness,
to the point where he drew such a picture?
That's because he wants to study at Seio…
am I wrong?
When we went to rehearse for the choir recital,
Makoto-kun's father seemed to have said something to him
If you studied at Seio, he said that it would be better?
He said if I studied a lot, it would be easier for Mom
I will protect Mom!
Kamahara-san, as parents, no matter what,
we are not someone who works hard to protect our children but
the children are here to protect their parents.
And are working hard with their small bodies
Somehow, please understand that thought
Haruto!
What's wrong?
You don't have to go to that school
Haruto is trying to protect Mom
I'm really, really happy
But Mom,
likes it better now when I'm with Haruto
I want to be with Haruto
Okay!
Haruto, what do you want to eat today?
I'll make anything that Haruto likes!
Cheese Hamburger!
Okay, cheese hamburger
Hooray! Hooray!
It's because you looked so worried,
I got involved in this. Eh?
Heart You know quite a lot
Sakurako
Sakurako, I'm sorry
Mom has only been making Sakurako do so much
Should we stop studying?
I want to try and study
I'm sorry
Divorce Paper
(Shuuhei) What do you mean?
I want a divorce
Rika will definitely be brought up on my responsibility
That's why I would like a divorce. Please return Rika
Listen, come without fail to the exams next week,
then I'll forgive and forget everything that's happened up to now
Do not say stupid stuff out of confusion, and come back home at once
Entrance Exams Day

Once it ends, let's go eat something delicious
(Staff) Guardians of Odadera Makoto-kun
That's us
Could I have a minute (Marie) Yes
Makoto-kun is nowhere to be found Makoto?
What do you mean?
(Staff) He was surely in the waiting room but before we realised-
Let's root for everyone today Yeah!
What do you want?
