Good morning.
You're acting like I attacked you or something.
You stayed over, didn't you?
I see.
You're so small. You were all curled up.
I'm compact.
You can take me anywhere you go.
Where shall I take you?
I'm home.
I stayed over but I didn't take a change of clothes.
I can't wear the same clothes to work.
Narumi, I know you're up!
What are you doing?
I don't have time. Can you make coffee?
This is Tamotsu. We go to school together.
Hello.
I wish I could freeze this morning and keep it forever.
And I'd take it out once in a while.
It would be my treasure.
We'll have lots of mornings like this.
Let's always be together.
Stop!
You're making me blush.
Then I won't say it again.
I'm sorry.
Bye.
Tamotsu.
Your hair...
I love you?
Dummy.
Bye.
I love you.

I told you to wait for me at the cafeteria.
I couldn't wait that long.
I missed you, darling.
Let's go see if any of our lectures are canceled.
Me, too.
They amaze me.
It's a stage people go through when they first start dating.
They don't have to go skipping and holding hands,
just go check on their lectures.
They didn't even recognize our presence.
A present for Narumi?
You're serious.
I guess love does change a person.
You should find a girlfriend, too.
Yeah, right.
You don't find a girlfriend, they find you.
Almost like an accident.
That girl...
She'll fall in love with me when she leaves this store.
She's kind of old.
Really?
It goes like this...
I need to at least know the artist name...
I wouldn't be singing it if I knew their name.
I'll sing it once more.
That's...
That's the song by B'z.
This is the fifth store I had to sing at.
Thanks.
Strange woman.
Let's get something to eat.
Sorry, I have plans.
Well...
Shall we fall in love?
Weren't we supposed to fall in love?
First kiss on the third date...
Have sex on our fifth date... I'm bored of all that.
Let's go for it.
Thanks.
Tamotsu has arrived.
Sorry. I'm late.
I know your footsteps.
The song we heard at your place.
You said you liked it.
Thank you! I'm so happy.
I'll listen to it when I get home.
Coffee, please.
I have to work at 6.
That's in 20 minutes.
Sorry.
You've been working a lot lately.
What do you do with the money you make?
Does it matter?
Just take care of yourself.
That's okay. I'll pay for myself.
Don't worry. I'll take care of this.
Thank you.
2,400 yen, please.
2,400 yen?
Bye.
I'll call you.
What?
I'll go with you to your job.
You don't have to do that.
You're right.
Bye.
Call me.
You're drinking too much.
I wonder if they've done it.
Have they done it?
I can't hear you!
Cheer up, young man!
Why does she choose him?
A love triangle?
Can I ask you something?
Yes?
That guy that was with me at the record store...
do you think he's more attractive than me?
The other guy?
Oh, yeah!
Who do you think is more attractive?
I found a pimple.
As the heir to Matsuoka Zaibatsu,
I'm sure you've studied business management.
I have a tutor who comes 3 or 4 times a week.
Did you quit taking violin lessons?
I still have lessons once a month.
Special education for the gifted.
But I can't choose my own future.
I have to travel a road that's been decided for me.
That road is the best road.
But, as the head of Matsuoka Zaibatsu,
it will be very difficult not to fall off the pedestal.
Are you trying to scare me?
Maybe I'm in a bad mood.
Is it hard to see Tamotsu and Narumi together?
No. They're acting so childish.
She's just like a puppy dog.
She smiles, runs and cries.
She expresses her love for him so openly.
When I see that...
It really touches me.
You have your good points.
I have a younger sister.
When we were small, our mother would always
buy us something when she went out.
Nothing special... maybe some caramel candy.
But I was always overjoyed to get it.
I heard my mother talking to my father once.
She said my sister always seemed happy
to receive anything,
but that I never seemed happy.
My mother said I was a dull child.
I know...
I know when you're happy... when you're sad...
I'm leaving.
Thanks.
I still have a lot of food.
It's hanging out.
This.
Here's your pay.
Thank you.
Keep up the good work!
What's up?
I can pay my tuition!
Want to come in for a drink?
No, I have to work early tomorrow.
Don't go too far.
You've always done well in school.
We've all looked up to you.
What?
Don't try to be someone you're not.
Is college really worth all this suffering?
I'm sorry. I opened my big mouth.
See you later.
We don't have those sorts of items here.
Use what we have in the rooms.
You took my money.
Where's my money?
I don't have it.
I spent it.
On what?
My boyfriend wants to opened his own place.
He needed some money so I lent it to him.
That was my tuition money.
I told you to forget about college.
I need 50,000 yen.
Can I have 50,000 yen, Tamotsu?
How many times do you have to hear this song?
Who cares?
You're a student. Don't get too serious.
Look who's talking.
I'm saying this for your sake.
Why don't you answer it?
You answer it.
I don't want to.
Hello.
Yes, it is.
Oh, hi!
Did you just get off work?
Is love an illusion?
Maybe we only think that we know each other's hearts.
You're in the midst of total happiness.
You once said Tamotsu didn't need anyone.
That he surrounded himself with a wall.
Maybe I did.
I feel you were right.
He won't show me who he really is.
I can't figure out what he's thinking.
It worries me.
You can't say that about Tamotsu.
He loves you, Narumi.
He was wanted at the admissions office again.
Hey, girls!
Do you know where Tamotsu is?
Can you wait just one more month?
I can't.
We've waited as long as we can.
Why can't you wait one more month?
Who are you?
I'm his mother!
You were supposed to pay when you registered!
But you said you couldn't pay,
so I waited for your payment.
Why can't you just wait a while longer?
You're not very smart, are you?
I know you're not popular with women.
Shut up!
I knew it!
You're drunk, aren't you?
Shut up!
He lost all your money betting on horses.
I'm so angry. I drank a whole bottle.
Then I wanted to see your face.
I don't feel so good.
I'm going to throw up.
The restroom is over there. I'll go with you.
Thanks, Seika.
Why?
Why didn't you tell me?
Tell you what?
About tuition.
That's the reason you were working longer hours.
Does it matter?
Of course it does!
I have some money.
I don't want your money.
I didn't know and I made you pay for everything.
That has nothing to do with this.
Yes, it does!
We're dating.
But you didn't tell me anything.
Why should I have to tell you?
I was waiting for your call yesterday.
I was busy.
Busy...
Is that how little I mean to you?
I'm cold.
I think she's feeling better now.
Carry me. I can't walk.
Are you okay?
Don't worry!
I can take care of her myself!
You amaze me.
You really do.
Payment was due in July.
We understand that. But couldn't you...
He worked so hard to get in this school.
We can't make an exception for him.
So, he's expelled?
Yes. That's the rule.
You were here all this time?
I'll be right there.
Thank you very much.
I'll return this money to you tomorrow.
You don't have to.
He said he'll be right back.
Thank you.
"This is a letter that will never be mailed.
How many letters like this have I written to you?
What can I do to save you from your pain?
I want to protect you.
I want to be a light that eases your pain.
And I want us to love one another.
Will my feelings ever reach you?
You, who will never look my way.
Kakei Tamotsu..."
What's up?
I was in the neighborhood so I thought I'd returned these.
You could've given it to me at school.
I better go home.
Already?
It's late already.
Bye.
You don't want me to walk you out?
Did you see something?
Did you?
No. I didn't see anything.
And I won't see anything.
Okay.
Bye.
In sorry about yesterday.
What a mother.
I ran around trying to get the money but...
That's okay. At least it's been paid for.
Just concentrate on your studies now.
Someone came by to pay for your tuition.
I'm returning this.
It must be yours.
I knew you wouldn't accept my money.
That's why I just went and paid it myself.
I don't remember asking you to do that!
Don't get so conceited, rich boy!
I'm not conceited. You're just jealous.
Stop it!
I asked him to do it!
He knew you'd be upset. But I begged him.
I asked him to do it.
I made arrangements for my withdrawal.
I don't need to go to this college so badly
that I have to depend on the pity of others.
I'm going to the admissions office.
That's not necessary.
Is everything I do unnecessary?
Can't I do anything?
Am I supposed to just stand by and smile?
I'm not a doll.
This is my problem. And I'll make my own decisions.
Don't butt in!
You went too far this time.
You wouldn't understand!
I'm scared.
You don't tell me anything and I...
I thought you would be happy.
I'm sorry I did what I did without telling you.
But I couldn't get in touch with you yesterday.
Where I go is none of your business!
Don't talk like that! We're dating.
So, we're dating!
Keep out of my territory!
You're so cruel.
I'm doing my best to communicate my feelings to you.
But you keep pushing me away!
What do you want from me?
I love you.
I love you so much but, it scares me.
You said you loved me.
Then, tell me you love me all day long.
Hold me in your arms at all times.
No one can do that.
I could.
I speak to you in my heart all day.
If you call me, I'll drop everything to get to you.
Isn't that what love is about?
Stop placing your demands on me!
Doesn't love mean to be one at heart?
That's all a myth.
Then what is love?
Is love about two lonely hearts that don't come together?
That's not right!
I don't want to be restricted.
How disappointing.
All you have to do to quit, is stop coming to class.
No goodbye parties.
We thought we were something special.
But things don't change just because one person quits.
Of course not.
That's not what I meant.
What is our identity?
I quit. I was trying to be intellectual.
I wonder what Tamotsu is doing?
Haven't you seen him?
No.
It's been a week!
Go see him.
Let's go.
I'll give you a ride.
You and I...
We are two lonely hearts. Just like Narumi said.
What do you mean?
We both love Tamotsu.
I'm sorry. I saw your letter.
It's okay...
He's a man.
It happens. A man can love another man.
It's not like you.
I think it's nonsense that you're letting it bother you.
Really?
Aren't you disgusted?
Why should I be?
No one can stop another from falling in love.
And no one has the right to criticize another's love.
You don't have that right either.
It's the most precious human emotion.
Hello. We're not home.
Please leave a message.
Where are we going?
Someplace nice!
Okay. Bye.
Don't you remember me?
The record store.
To express my gratitude, let me take you out.
Nothing.
Are you okay?
I was dumped today.
I was engaged but his parents didn't like
the fact that I'm from a single-parent home.
I'm sorry, but...
I'm not interested in your personal life.
I see.
You must be crazy!
You don't want to get killed by some
stranger you met on the street, right?
You're cruel.
You can never really face anyone. Am I right?
I don't know. That's what they say.
Get out.
Don't worry. I won't kill myself.
I'll drive.
I don't want just your sympathy.
Will you stay with me all night?
