Huh?

You don't have to have that kind of look.
Since I'm not particularly saying that I oppose your relationship.
Even if I did say I opposed it, that wouldn't change your feelings, would it? Right?
It's just... I'm a bit worried.
Why is that, Suzuko-san? He's a good boy and refreshing.
Yeah. He's polite and look, he was kind in helping out in making the sekihan.
Right, right, right!
He's only come the once to my place to eat...
...but the way he said, "This is so delicious"...
...I just had to give him a free serving of gyoza!
I can understand how you feel.
You can understand, right?
I think he's a fine young man, too.
It's just...
...I don't want Mineko to have to go through...
...any hardships or to feel sadness over this.
Because Mineko has been burdened with enough of those already.
That's since me and Shimatani-san...
...are from different worlds, right?
That's right.
But Shimatani-san told me this.
It's embarrassing to say this myself, but...
"Because the person I love..."
"...isn't the girl who had it tough when her Father disappeared and had to come to Tokyo..."
"...but the woman named Yatabe Minkeo, and her alone."
That's what he said.
I was happy at that...
"In all this world..."
"...there is someone who has told me he loves me for who I am," I thought.
That made me happy.
That's why I, too... He might be from a different world than mine...
I'm neither rich nor a university student...
...but I feel I love Shimatani Jun'ichiro-san, too.
Why are you guys looking like that?
Because... Right?
Right?
I see... You love him.
Yes.
That's true, isn't it?
Wonder if I'm getting a bit old?
Yes, old, old, old!
You said it three times too many.
Sorry.
I'm overly-worried about you, aren't I?
No, I'm happy for that! Thank you very much.
We must be in love, right? "Life is short, so be in love young maidens," it's said.
Ehh...
Hmm... why would there be such a thing?
It seems to be saying to just go into it recklessly.
Let's see, what is it...
"More haste, less speed."
That's not it.
Ah, "Look before you leap."
Ah, that's true, but... that's not quite it.
Concern.
Ah, concern!
Yes, yes, concern.
(Robashin)
Huh?
Did you just say "old woman"?
(Roba)
No, no, I didn't mean that, I didn't mean that!
Yasue-san! Right? That wasn't what I said, right?
It wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't.
You've started going out with Mineko-chan?
Yes.
I see.
I speak to your Mother by phone from time to time.
You knew that, right?
Yes, I know.
She is very worried about you.
Since you are her precious, precious successor son, right?
Yes.
She asked me, "Please watch over him."
She was crying on her side of the phone.
Even now, she calls me once a week.
"How is he doing? He hasn't changed, has he?"
"Is there anything unusual about his condition?"
Is that right.
I think today is the day she'll phone again, but...
...what should I do?
Eh?
I'd rather not have to tell her about Mineko-chan.
I'm sure that would worry her very much.
Since both you and Mineko-chan...
...are young tenants I care very much about, I do want to aid you.
But I can understand your Mother's feelings as well.
Because I've seen too many sad loves due to a difference in social standings.
Well, social standings... A thing like that nowadays...
Such a thing won't disappear, even a hundred years from now.
Then...
So, when she does call... I'll feign ignorance, okay?
Yes. I'll phone her myself someday.
Shimatani... aren't you coming?
Yeah.
Thank you very much!
The food was great.
Thanks for your hard work.
Yes!
Here.
Thank you very much.
Was it tough at work?
Nope.
Well, it's only natural I'd get tired...
...and I feel it makes my feet ache, but I enjoy it and it's interesting.
I liked how at my previous job I had exact, set hours...
...but you could say with this trade in customers who are different day in and day out...
...well, it's only natural the customers would be different each day...
...so never knowing what might happen...
...makes it interesting and I never grow tired of that.
Ehh... is that right.
Yes.
But there is that. With Suzufuritei's dishes...
...the customers who eat it and leave will all go home with satisfied faces...
...and while eating them, their faces say, "it's delicious" as they eat...
...and that makes me happy somehow.
And when it looks like they're saying, "it's not that good"...
...that does make my heart break a little.
Yeah.
My stories are boring, aren't they?
Why? I think they are interesting indeed.
And moreover...
Moreover?
I love the happy look you get on your face... when you tell them.
That's the look... that I love.
Eh? Like this?
A little different from that one.
Eh? How about this?
Totally different.
Huh?
That's the look.
Eh? This?
What nonsense...
Ah, that's right, Mineko-chan.
Huh?
I was thinking of going home to Saga tomorrow.
Yes.
They've been obnoxious with their, "Come home, come home already."
Yes. Your family will be pleased, won't they?
Yeah.
To Saga, huh?
I'd like to go see Ookuibarki, too.
Really?
Yeah.
I'd like to meet Chiyoko and Susumu.
And your Grandfather and Mother, too.
Ah, and then see what I was told you resemble...
...the Mt. Daiko... raccoon dog?
Ah...
No, no, sorry, sorry.
Geez!
I'm sorry.
Saga, huh...
Be careful...
Huh? Aiko-san has come again at last, hasn't she?
What on earth could she want?
Hello...
Which is it...
Suzuko-san! Suzuko-san!
Suzuko-san, she's there! She's there!
Hey, come out with me sometimes. Okay!
I don't like playing pachinko.
Ah, that's okay.
Just standing next to me and watching is fine. Okay?
I wanna share the fun. It gets lonely!
What's that about?
Please!
Just for today though.
Really?! All right!
I want some chocolate, please!
Oh, leave it to us!
Whaa!
Aiko-san!
Geez...
And, and, back in Ookuibaraki...
...Mitsuo's brother Taro and Tokiko's brother Toyosaku are...
And? And? How is it?
I'm good fer my part. How about ya?
I'm good ta go, too. I still got free time before da apple harvest.
But... I ain't got much money.
Dat's okay.
I ain't got much either, but don't worry!
We'll get it done somehow or other, right?
Eh? We'll be continuing with these two?
Well, it'll eventually work itself out somehow or other!
