(Kaoruko) I found out about Togo Sugi's past (Sakurako) what, what did you find out!?
that Shimako Misaki
she wasn't just Togo san's fiancée
there was something big happened just tell me
they had an attempted double suicide
(Togo) what's the matter? everyone's here
please tell me why did you leave Okazaki all of the sudden?
well, looks delicious!
don't change the subject! Kaoruko did the research
please tell me everything
what happened with
that Shimako Misaki san in Aomori?
♬～
there is nothing to say it is as Kaoruko chan said
I failed attempted double suicide abandoned her and came to Tokyo
♬～
I don't understand yet
Togo san, you ran from place to place from her
if you loved her enough to attempt double suicide why ran from her?
I don't get why attempted double suicide with your fiancée
in the first place
was anyone against it?
it's not that simple
so please explain
as if there is my onechan (older sister) here
♬～
Togo san
are you sure you don't mind being over with my onechan (older sister) like this?
please explain as if I am onechan (older sister)
if you still care about
my onechan (older sister)

I didn't like the family in Tsugaru
about old tradition, custom, a complicated family
my parents suspected that I wanted to
run away to Tokyo
so they forced me to do the marriage meeting with Shimako
they tried to make me stay there
the night I decided to run away, I met Shimako
♬～
it was snowing
♬～
(Shimako) Togo san
if you are going to Tokyo, take me with you
I was so shocked a woman who met only at the marriage meeting
was hiding in front of the house
it was totally unexpected
"leave me alone, I go by myself"
I told her so, but she never listened
Togo san this is a marriage meeting arranged by our parents
when I saw you for the first time
my gut instinct was "this is the man of destiny"
we only met once or twice what do you know about me?
everything I want to be with you
♬～
(Hatsumi) I can relate to it (Yae) aye? Can you?
yes, I can fall in love with someone from at first sight
that's love at first sight it's not a misunderstanding
you just know it from the first sight
(Mari) to think like that is a misunderstanding
maybe true I have a bad experience like that...
ah, wrong, wrong you two never had love at first sight?
real love at first sight be quiet!
I told her
"listen, I'm going to Tokyo now, run away from home
when I get there I'll have to worry about the food on the table everyday
there will be maggots and lice, impossible lifestyle for a lady from a wealthy family
but Shimako said
"I don't mind it"
she only said "take me to Tokyo with you"
only repeated "I can't take you" "take me"
there was full of tears in her eyes
I understand you don't like me
"annoying woman, you don't want to see my face" that's the truth
(Togo) I don't think so then marry me
(Togo) well...
if you tell me the truth I can give up
say it loud "I hate you, I don't want to see your face"
please!?
(Mari) you should have told her so
"I hate you"
(Yae) but there aren't many men who can say things like that
(Mari) men are cunning
whenever they break up with women, they don't want to be hated
true
then what happened?
I said "I can't do such a thing"
and then she started to cry all of the sudden
as she was crying, she was going into the river
I'm going to die! hey, what are you doing!?
without being loved by the only man I ever loved all my life
I am going to die! wait! stop it!
wait!
♬～
if you really want to hear, I'll tell you
I...
(river)
we were both rescued before we drown
when she was sleeping from fatigue, I got on the train alone
then to Tokyo?
that woman tries to kill herself when she sees my face
I'd better not see her
♬～
"dear Fue nechan (older sister), Togo san is in Marronnier apartment now
after learning about Togo san's circumstances, as to fiancee is concerned,
it doesn't seem like it was entirely his fault
in fact I feel Togo san should explain it to onechan (older sister)
in person in Okazaki
but for Togo san he feels
very difficult to go back there
would you come to Tokyo and talk to him face to face?"
♬～
(postman) here’s your mail thank you
to Hatsumi san from mother back home
I see
there is no contact from onechan (older sister)
right
Togo san, won't you go back to Okazaki?
you'd better go back to Okazai and talk with onechan (older sister)
don't worry "the consequences of one's own deeds"
a man like me is not suitable for a teacher at girls' school
Togo san, are you hungry? aye?
let's eat "Yaki imo" (baked sweet potato)
♬～
that's good I learned from my father
I see
(blowing)
hopeless (laughter) right
it's quiet Yasuji san isn't here either
right
are you lonely, Togo san?
no, not at all I see
you must be lonely, Sakurako chan after Tatsuhiko kun's gone
not at all (imitating Togo's accent)
♬～
onechan (older sister) should be relieved to hear
Togo san has no intention of marrying
that Shimako san at all
but I wonder why she doesn't say anything
well, shall I write a letter to her for you?
"if you are to take too long, I'll take Togo away from you"
then she should come right away Mari!
that's a good idea! love is "Battles Without Honour and Humanity"
onechan (older sister) is too proud
no, that's not good enough
I got the idea! to make your onesan (older sister) to come to Tokyo for certain
♬～
(Momoko) a letter from Sakura chan by any chance?
♬～
onechan (older sister)? what's the matter?
(whistle)
I felt I must tell you this to you,
Fue nechan (older sister)
spending day after day worrying about my uncertain future, about music school,
Togo san is the only person I can turn to
then I found myself
being in love with him from the bottom of my heart
we are dating with marriage in mind in a distant future"
(Fueko) Sakurako! come out, Sakurako!
ah, onechan (older sister) I'm glad you came
Togo san, onechan (older sister) is here!
hey!
wait!
onechan (older sister), calm down
okay okay, calm down
how can I calm down!?
what did you do with Sakurako!
what did I do with Sakura chan?
no, onechan (older sister) that letter was... no excuse!
sorry! sorry, onesan (ma'am)!
we made up the letter made it up?
we thought about how to make onesan (older sister) to come here
so it’s all lies in the letter
lies? what 's all about?
I wrote "I want to marry with Togo san"
you! Sakurako... hey!
stop it!
calm yourself down have some tea in here
what are you talking about? as if it has nothing to do with you
(Masa) in any case Fueko came to Tokyo at last
