(3 people) hello
(Masa) to comfort those who evacuated to the countryside living apart
from their parents Sakurako showed a picture‐story at home
(Togo) "I'm the north wind! I'll blow away your overcoat"
!
(Yasuji) ah, it's cold it's cold"
(clapping)
I'm the north wind!
I'll blow away your overcoat"
the picture‐story was so interesting do it again
(Sakurako) yes, when we made a new one
your piano was so good, Miss
I wish you played it instead of Mr. Shinohara
I'm not a teacher, so I can't play the organ
but you are far better than Mr. Shinohara
he makes mistakes a lot
please play the organ yes, please
please, please!
♬～(organ)
(Iigima) what's the matter?
(Muraki) Miss Arimori is playing the organ in the classroom without permission
what the office clerk doing after all!?
what are you doing, Miss Arimori? I'm sorry
it's exactly the same as what Miss Nishino told us
I heard when you were a student,
you played the forbidden jazz at school
is it okay to let a person like her to work here, principal?
I am sorry
it will never happen again
sir it's my fault I am the one who asked her to play the organ
me too me too
vice-principal Miss Arimori seems to have followers
(Muraki) yeah
her a picture‐story is interesting a picture‐story?
I showed them a picture‐story at home
I see you like children
yes
I heard you wanted to be a teacher
I heard it from Miss Nishino yes
I'll ask around if any school I know is looking for
a substitute teacher for you really?
thank you very much
♬～
(Fueko) good on you, Sakurako they are going to recommend you?
I don't know when and which school it will be yet
good on you you wish comes true in the end
good on you thanks
I'm inspired to paint too
it's since we did the picture‐story at home, he became fine
thanks, Sakurako not at all
(knock)
here is your tea
what are you going to paint? I don't know yet
my inspiration is back, but I don't know what I can paint
whatever comes into your mind
just start with what you want to do the most
right
onechan (older sister) what are you doing? I'm preparing a canvas for Togo
can you help me? yep
his inspiration is back at last
I want to do something for him
this is all I can do
and when his paintings pile up
I'm thinking about leaving them in a farm house I know in Hazu
in Hazu
there might be air raids in the city
we don't know when that might happen, right?
I must protect his paintings no matter what
right but it's difficult to take them to Hazu
I'll do it Sakura chan
you stay beside Togo
is it called inspiration?
to make him want to paint
you seem to be better at it
I don't understand anything about painting at all
so count on me with physical labour
onechan (older sister)...
(knock) come in
excuse me
Miss Arimori I found a position for one substitute teacher
really? thank you very much
but it's bit far it's Toyone village
Toyone village?
they will take care of a lodging
it's not a kind of distance you can commute from home yes
you don't want to leave home?
no please let me think about it
right take your time and please think about it
Ryota kun what's the matter?
Miss are you going to be a teacher in Toyone village?
don't go that far!
I haven't decided yet
people at home will worry, so go home
see you tomorrow at school
Sakura chan what's about Toyone village?
there is a position for a substitute teacher in Toyone village the principal told me about it today
are you going to accept it?
without going that far,
if you wait, won't there be a position around here?
it's far, but they will take care of a lodging
it's not a bad offer
have you told, Fueko?
not yet I'll tell her when I decide
I'll make some tea
Sakura chan

well you want to do it
yes, please then I write a letter of recommendation
when it's decided
you move to there and prepare before the new semester starts
is that okay? yes
♬～
hello hello
♬～
hello hello
♬～
her feeling
might break the quiet happy family life now
that was what Sakurako thought
♬～
"I can hear frogs
from about that time, during the day
rice nursery starts at the part of rice field
after a black cattle slowly
plough the fields
a new soil shines under the sun
after soil is dug up and breaking up the hard soil
the rice field is filled with water and the cattle harrows land"
(air-raid siren)
calm down, everyone put on air-raid hoods everyone
Miss Arimori yes
please lead the students to schoolyard yes
the ones with your bags go out at once
hello!
thank goodness it seems just a siren and no air raids
(Fueko) Sakurako what?
there was another air raids in Tokyo
(Yasuji) Shinagawa, Shibuya, Koujimachi they all seem to be destroyed
Koujimachi is where Kazuyuki san's home is
♬～
how about Momo nechan (older sister)? (Iso) it's virtually impossible to confirm
we sent her a telegram, but we don't know if it will reach her
(Yasuji) I feel so helpless
Momoko san maybe I should go and look for her...
ah, I'll go too I'll go too
wait calm down
it's difficult to get tickets now
you might be attacked on the way too
I'll go as soon as I find out something, I will contact you
ah, aunt!
Momo chan
why did I leave Momo chan alone in Tokyo?
don't worry negative thoughts only bring more negatives
(Yasuji) there are so many air raids in many places lately
is it the coming of decisive battles in the mainland at last?
