(Saionji) Sakurako kun why don't you have your own concert?
(Sakurako) aye?
to play your own music to the public
Sakurako Matsui's concert!
I can't do it my finger movement isn't good
they get better with practice
even though she loved music, the lack of opportunity for women
but after surviving the war
her chance has finally came
to convey that message to the listeners has the meaning
I'll take care of the concert preparation
so till then just practice calmly and slowly
can I ask you that?
yes
is that okay, Mr. Matsui?
(Tatsuhiko) yes, please
♬～
what shall I do... I said "yes"
it is my own concert
to play the piano in front of audience
and my own music I wonder if I can do it
yes, you can
only a year ago, you performed so well at the club for the Occupation Army
you'll be definitely all right
but I wasn't alone at that time
I'll support you
this isn't a dream of your own
I gave up my music for the shop and went to war
I was far away from the piano
but I could always hear piano in my mind
I've always had the feeling of pursuing my dream somewhere in me
so I want my dream to come true by seeing you play the piano
in front of the audience again
yep
♬～
(Masa) since then Sakurako started to practice piano
seriously again for the concert
♬～
she started to practice scales she hasn't done for a long time
and increased the difficulties steadily
♬～
and at that time Fueko came to the Arimori family
to spend summer holidays with her family
(Momoko) time flies
it's been a year since grandpa passed away
(Fueko) he passed away as if sleeping at the piano
I remember his happy face even now
I wish grandpa could be
at Sakura chan's concert
I'll come to the concert too
no, thanks it must be too much trouble
we'll be here till the end of summer anyway
he says he can paint in peace here
he hates to be worshiped by art dealers
and being addressed by "sir"
but he is having art show in Tokyo, isn't he?
art show?
Yasuji san, Yae san, Kazuyuki san and deceased Mr. Morita
put together their paintings and have a group exhibition
Yasuji san has been ignored by art circles
everywhere so to help him
it was Togo's idea I see
but
there is another reason to have an art show
what is it?
for Touru
(Fueko) his eyes are getting worse and worse
I was told at the hospital "it's not far distant future
when he can't see anything at all"
maybe because of that he became shy
and withdrawn
he can't play with other kids, so he can't make friends
we don't know what we can do for him,
but before he can't see anything completely
show him his father's paintings to remember by
for that it's a good idea to have an art show
I talked with Togo about that
Sakura chan play with us!
play the piano!
yes! play for us! okay?
okay
♬～
Touru chan
I'm going to play the piano in that room
will you come to listen?
come with me, okay
♬～
when a traveller came, north wind was blowing
"I'll blow away your coat!"
♬～(piano)
I'll blow away it away!
who's turn next after the north wind? the sun!
that's right
"the sun warmed up a traveller trying to make him take off his coat"
♬～(piano)
Togo san
(Togo) ah, Sakura chan
Touru chan's eyes, he isn't seeing well?
right
the art show is not bad, but I want show Touru nature
sky, clouds, the sun and bright moon
if he sees them now, he can remember them later
so when I go sketching outside
I'll bring along Toruru as much as possible and let him play nearby
I see
I heard you are having a concert, Sakura chan
that's great
I'm not sure from when, but I thought
my dream of becoming a musician would never come true
but if you don't give up, it can come true
right
I don't mind if this is my first and last, once in a life time concert
I'll try my best
right good luck
♬～(piano)
when Sakurako was practicing hard, there was an unexpected guest
Touru chan!
did you come alone, Touru chan? I came with onechan tachi (older sisters)
onechan (older sister) is playing with Sa chan in miso warehouse
I see can I stay here?
yes you want to listen me practice? yes
well, Touru chan!
I wrote a piece for you, Touru chan
did you know that? nope
this "Touru's theme"
I wrote this hoping you become big fine good boy, Touru chan!
do you want listen to it?
yep
♬～(piano)
♬ "the red sunset sky the after sunset orange sky the sun goes down"
be careful don't go too far
yes
can I come again? yes
by yourself and whenever you like
but my mother says "it's dangerous out there, so don't go out alone"
I see
I wonder if I can't see anything someday
♬～
Touru chan!
can you see this?
yes it's platycodon
just remember this well
then you can see it
when you want to
let's close our eyes and and think about it
if we can see platycodon
yes
♬～
can you see it, Touru chan?
I can see it
open your eyes
♬～
a day after that
I'm going to meet someone
who is helping dad's
art show today
when you go out, you must tell onechan (older sister) and Sa chan
and ask them to take you there
it's dangerous with bicycles outside okay?
yes
Kazu chan take care of him yes
see you see you
let's go to Sakura chan's place
after this
hello hello
Touru?
hello
do you know where Touru went?
I was painting in the room
♬～
Sakurako! is Touru here? no, why?
he is missing do you know where he went?
