"Serial TV Story"
I think I'm bound...
...to be called up once more to go to the front.
We...
...shouldn't be having this talk.

Here you are.
Ah, Sudo-sensei.
Yes!
Ah... Thing is...
Ah, a written report, right?
Very well. I'll do it.
Eh?
Ah, is that right? Sorry.
No, no.
Ouch!
What was that for, Natsuko-sensei?
Has something painful come up?
- Eh? - Huh?
No... Ala?
What is it?
Eh... Do I look like I'm in pain?
- No. - Eh?
Well... I'd intended to be my bright self instead...
And so you don't say anything.
You don't have a painful look and you don't say anything.
For a career woman, that means something's wrong.
It's true, isn't it?
Ah, yes...
And so since you were working so hard and trying to be light...
...I figured something must have happened.
Understand?
Ah, yes...
And Yoko-sensei's been acknowledged...
...as a fully-fledged career woman.
Understand?
- There! - Ouch!
That's twice!
Thank you very much.
Yeah...
And? What's happened?
And, given that expression, it's not about work.
Ah, yes...
You really do understand me, don't you?
For a nice person like Yoko-san...
I wouldn't want to make her a widow.
I am truly very sorry!
Ehh...
Yes. That's what it was.
Then...
That must mean he came to like you, doesn't it?
Eh... It does?
Yeah, probably...
And that you like him, too.
Eh?
No...
I really don't know about myself.
But when I think we won't get to meet again...
...I do get a little sad.
Then that means you like him, doesn't it?
Eh?
After all...
...would you feel that way if you couldn't meet Nakamura-sensei or Fukuda-sensei anymore?
Eh?
Ah, that's a poor example.
Then...
Enough already.
There really aren't any decent men around.
But, there's nothing I can do about it anymore.
I was refused...
I'm really strange when it comes to having unrequited loves.
Like back with my First Love.
Eh? When? When was it?
Why are you so happy about that?
After all, there's nothing more entertaining than a story of unrequited love.
Say, say, when was it?
What sort of unrequited love was it?
Eh? Geez!
I am truly very sorry!
No, no, Maruyama-san.
Please raise your head already.
Yes.
Yoko-san, I'm sorry!
No, don't be.
I spoke to him many times after that.
Once he's decided to be stubborn, he can be a stubborn boy.
This girl, to me...
I thought she could make up for my daughter.
What do you mean?
Truth is...
...we once had a daughter.
Her name was Masako and we lost her when she was 6.
If she were still alive, she'd be the same age as Yoko-san.
She was a very cute child with a poor constitution...
...so she was always on my back, and was always so adorable to me.
Kazunari loved her very much, too.
So if she was...
If he went to the front and never came back...
...she could still be my daughter.
That's what I was feeling when having the omiai.
I see...
But, having met Yoko-san...
...I think I understand just how rude a thing my idea was.
I am truly very sorry!
We won't ask you for a single thing from here on!
Um...
Yes?
Please accept my best regards.
Your kind feelings...
Thank you very much for them.
Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for your hard work.
"Special Call-up Notice Maruyama Kazunari"
Welcome home.
The call-up notice came?
Yeah, I go next week.
I see.
Well? Have you brought some good soba?
Huh?
Yeah! Look here!
How about it? Fair, isn't it?
It is.
Yeah.
Well now!
How about some "Udeganarunaru Houryuji"? (type of soba dish)
Well now...
Yeah, let's do it. Okay! Here!
Dad...
Huh?
Could I get a small portion of that?
No way. What for?
- Please. - No way.
Thank you.
Oi, oi! I told you no way!
"At that time, the children were very tired."
"Every day was a continuous round of military drills and Labor Service."
Ah!
Hello.
Ah... hello.
What brings you here?
Ah, I've come for the school.
Um...
Yes?
Ah...
My Dad managed to get a little soba.
Eh?
And...
...so we made some soba dangos. (dumplings)
I thought Yoko-sensei's children would like to eat some.
They can't?
No, it's not that.
Thank you very much.
That's good.
Whaa!
Now, all of you eat up.
Whaa, looks good!
There's plenty. Here!
Whaa! Looks so good!
Here! Here! Share it properly.
Whaa! So good!
Did all of you get some?
Yes!
Well then, Itadakimasu!
Itadakimasu!
It's great!
So good.
Thank you very much.
Not at all.
Yoko-sensei, have some, too.
Ah, yes.
Itadakimasu.
It's delicious!
Thank goodness!
Everyone, they're delicious, aren't they?
They're great!
Say, Yoko-sensei.
Huh?
Who's he?
Eh... Ah...
I'm Yoko-sensei's...
Friend.
From a soba restaurant.
Ehh!
But, I'm also a soldier.
A soba-soldier?
A weak one, like a toy soldier.
Soba-soldier, this is really delicious!
Thank you.
You know how these are made, don't you?
"Ah, I could love this man..."
"...I thought at the time."
