(Saito) we will go this way! please go that way!
(police) OK! roger!
no! I'm totally out of breath
(Sakurako) are you all right, sir? no, thanks
please ok, thanks
thank you very much about Kaoruko
"Thou Shalt Not Die" when I saw it that really scared me
whenever we say "cheers" we should never forget
that means we are sending them to deadly places
(Kaoruko) Sakurako
Kaoruko, are you all right?
thank you very much
not at all
it must be difficult to see her brother go to war
yeah
it's not only difficult,
my older brother was saying,
"for peace in Asia" or "coexistence and co-prosperity"
that is just convenient for them,
war in the end means total strangers killing each other
there is no "war for the truth"
my older brother was a part of leftist movement in Tokyo
I see
by the way, I am moving out of the town soon
such an important thing, why didn't you tell me earlier?
if I told you, my older brother was an activist,
I didn't how you would react
I am on your side, Kaoruko
♬～
is there anything I can do for you?
well,
can you keep my brother's books for a while?
if there is a house search, because of this
that book would cause a problem
if my older brother came home safe,
I think he would be sad
Sakurako, well... OK
I'll do anything for you, Kaoruko thanks
♬～
I'll take them
♬～
(Masa) Sakurako was very impressed with Mr. Saito's action
♬～
I'm home!
(Fueko) sir! (Iso) there was a thief?
Are you all right, sir?
well, my wallet was almost empty, so no worries
mine too come in. let's have tea
ah!
♬～
Sakura chan, what are these books?
we can't keep these books in the house
wait a minute! they are mine
♬～
(Fueko) may I speak to you?
ah... yes, sure
what can I do for you?
these books they aren't yours, right?
most likely she borrowed them from her friend
well...
please say they are mine
if police comes to investigate,
I'll take the whole responsibility
why do you protect her so much?
Sakurako has a courage
to protect her friend ah, no..
I am not saying "forget her friend"
but her protection is my priority
but we don't talk about things like that at home
I think Sakurako'd better not know these things
to protect herself... and family
♬～
I understand
I understand your feeling very well I am a teacher as well
♬～
3 days later, before Kaoruko leaves for Tokyo with her family,
she came to say good bye to Sakurako
return these to Kaoruko? yes
this is not quite right
Fueko yes
excuse me this is Descartes.... pardon?
it's "I think. Therefore I am "
pardon? sorry excuse me a minute
sure thank you
here is a farewell gift rice "rice"...
there are books in it thanks!
not at all that's all I can do
Sakurako I told you before
I want to be a novelist someday
yeah I will try my best no matter where I am
what's happening now and future
I will record it and show it to the world
you'll see
OK
I'll see you again someday, somewhere
yep
♬～
that's good
♬～
It is a wonderful thing to have something to believe in,
nothing alter your mind
♬～
what is it? no, nothing

(wind chimes seller)
(Tatsuhiko) hi!
(clerk) thank you very much
at that time, the only child from "Yamacho" Tatsuhiko Matsui,
just like Sakurako a while ago,
there was disagreement with his family about his future
what?
oh!
(Kane) I keep the key
if you have time to play the piano, either help the shop
or study Business Administration for the future
hey, you tell him as well
(Takuji) Tatsuhiko, your mother is worried
tell him with your own words
your father is worried as well
it's ok to love music,
as long as you do it as a hobby, but...
no, it is not OK! you're too kind
well... anyway
your mother and I tried so hard to keep this business going
a lot happened during our 25 years of marriage
we hard hard time that we can't talk about...
that's enough!
you are the only successor in this business
you must concentrate on succeeding
the business
do you understand? Tatsuhiko!

(door shut)
young master! this is unusual
don't call me "young master" we were the schoolmates
but "young master" is "young master"
well yes, sir
do you like your job?
like or not, it's a job
true sorry to bother you
I love the smell of miso
I feel calm in the warehouse
I see
I was born and raised here,
so I never paid attention to the smell of miso
I'm home!
(Cicada)
(Yutaro) ah! necahn (older sister) is sewing
it's a miracle
shut up ah! that's for Mr. Saito
you don't mind the smell, and trying to learn
stop it! I'll hit you with a dirty sock don't say "dirty"!

Sakurako thought all she could do at the moment was to practice piano
as best as she could
(Nishino) fingers are wrong do it again
yes

Sakurako has started to develop
a new feeling in her mind for the first time
