Eh? Did he ignore your greeting?
Should I buy a TV~
Oneechan, you never watch TV
Eh~ but it will be lonely
Will TV make you not lonely?
It can be my talking partner. It can't be..
Well, we can't communicate..
But if I talk, it will also talk.
You sure can think that way about TV. Eh?
What is this? Huh? Ah, soba.
Gift for neighbors, Okaasan told me.
Yes.
Hello. What?
Eh? What?
Ah...
Sorry, she just moved in to the next room.
So she thought to greet the neighbors.
Hey. It's person from earlier.
Oi. Person from earlier. What? You know him
You saw him a while ago. Is that so?
She wants to greet you.
Yes. Ah.. hello.
Ah… hello, good afternoon.
Umm... this...
What is it?
It's *hikkoshi soba. Eh? (*soba which usually given by someone who's moving to a new place to new neighbors)
Hikkoshi soba. What is that?
Eh...
Something like *toshikoshi soba…? (*soba which is eaten on new year's eve)
Ah.. it's nothing special. We just want to greet you.
Ah, is that so? Thank you.
You know, it's usual custom when someone's moving, isn't it?
To celebrate it.
Celebrate what?
...Moving. Who?
Ah... me?
Thank you. Thank you. Let's get along well.
Oneechan, I'm hungry.
I got box of sweets from Okaasan.
Eat it if you want. Just buy something.
Why? I have trouble moving.
I have trouble too.
It's thanks to who so you can move out?
My own power.
Please buy something. Mother gave you money, right?
Why is it only Onee-chan that being spoiled by her?
She's not spoiling me. She can be strict to me.
Huh?
Please buy eel.
I don't know where to buy eel!
Aren't it only sold around the river?
Eh, then just buy something that stomach-friendly.
Just okay for stomach?
Isn't it better if you eat something which is good for your whole body?
That's fine for me.
Ah.. welcome. Ah...
It's hot.
It's hot!
Please.
Two shogayaki. Thanks for waiting. Thank you.
That day in front of pachinko shop I saw your husband.
Eh? It must be wrong person. No, no, I'm really sure.
He's not my husband.
Eh, so what is him? Just friend.
Thank you. Thank you.
Have you decided?
I recommend you stir fry vegetables.
Ah...
Stir fry vegetables is good.
Ah.. is that so.
Ah... this shogayaki...
Ah, it's pork shogayaki. Our stir fry vegetables...
the vegetables bought directly from farmer so it's recommended.
Because the farmer grow it with personal care.
We bought the pork from supermarket in front of station. American product.
Ah, but...
Well stir-fry vegetables lunch and... mm... pork shogayaki.
Ah, are you eating with your boyfriend? Ah... with my little sister.
If it's for girl, vegetables are better. How about vegetables?
You're not staying?
Why? There's no futon.
Well, we can sleep together.
Eh... I don't want to.
You're coming back? Eh? I'm coming back.
Oneechan? I go now.
Okay!
Tanaka Yasuo? Who is that?
Yeah. Yeah.
Eh? That's great. Taeko, what did you say?
Is that so? Eh~ great
I'm glad.
By the way… Ah, no, it's not that.
Yes. It's just me
I wonder… whether it would be OK if I give a gift or something.
It smells… It smells like cigarette.
I want a curtain.
What is this? I thought it's squid but it's actually fried radish.
Is something like fried radish exist? Of course it is.
Btw, don't talk too loud.
I'm not really loud.
What are you doing? Sshhh!
Ah, noone's there now. Maybe he's going to Pachinko.
Why do you know something like that? Because I overheard all the things. Like conversation.
If I put my ear in the wall like this...
It's just one step short. What?
Miki, I already want to move.
Huh? Why are you saying that easily? Even though you're being provided by your parents.
I will pay them back when I work.
When will you work?
But, I really can hear the neighbor's daily life noise very well.
Two persons live there
But they don't really talk to each other I wonder if they're okay?
I don't know. Don't make yourself worry. Well, I dont intend to.
But, the girlfriend seems to work properly
But the boyfriend, I think he's not working.
Ah, that person. He looked like he's not working.
Yes yes! He's only going to pachinko.
But "I've been doing part time job for a while" I heard him saying that
So you overheard all the things?
Because I have free time.
It must be lonely.
Ah, by the way, this! I thought to give you this. What?
This, a friend. Eh? What is that?
Eh, a cactus? I don't need that.
That It's from my ex-boyfriend.
No way I don't need it! Such a muddled thing.
It's been alive for 5 years.
But it doesn't change at all Maybe it's artificial cactus.
Eh? The more varied one is better.
It's perfect as Yoriko's friend.
Eat this. I don't need that.
My rice's proportion is running low Eh, proportion?
It's not balanced with the side dishes.
Well, I will give you some rice.
I'm back to the beginning.
Should you get a boyfriend? Huh? I already have person I like.
Yoriko, isn't it?
Hey, you're so scary.
Don't cry in front of people's home.
I understand, I understand. What is it?
I understand Koichi's feelings.
If that so, don't come.
It's not that. I come because I have something to ask.
Eh? What? I'm bit busy.
No way you're busy! You just return from work
You must be leisure No way you're busy.
Mm, I get it. Sorry, sorry. Because I'm not busy.
... so, what do you want to ask?
I can't tell you such impudent thing. What is it.
It's okay, just say it.
Well, I don't want to say it in front of door.
Sorry, you can't enter. Why?
Well, because it's impossible.
Jeez what is it...
You know, I...
Why do you come here? I come to see you.
Mm, now you have seen me. It's enough right?
It's not enough.
Just go home for now.
I started living alone.
I saw it in the mail. You saw it?
Eh, so why are you not replying?
If you reply it I don't need to come.
So, I will mail you. Go home. Eh? No...
Mm. Just go home today. I don't want to go home.
Koichi, you may have a lot of friends or girlfriends
But I only have you. If it's girlfriend, I only have one.
Eh, you have girlfriend?
Look, for Yoriko you have mother and little sister.
I have mother and little sister, but…
You have girlfriend? Eh?
Are you okay? Ah, sorry. It's a bit...
Eh? What was that, just now? Girl... girlfriend?
Yeah. So, that's why.
Since when... Mmm.
Because, you know, it's already 5 years.
That… since we separated.
So, that's why I didn't see you recently.
I started living alone. You already told me.
That's why, you can come back to me any time.
Even after you broke up with her.
Ah, mm, you know.
I won't go back to your place. Okay?
Do you understand?
I'm hungry..
Eh? I'm hungry.
It hurts...
Eh, what is it?
My neck hurts. Eh?
My neck... hurts Why?
I don't know why. It's just natural thing!
Why are you angry? I will cut it if you keep like that.
Just cut it.
Don't cut it.
What are you eating? Okaasan's cookie.
You came to his place, right? Koichi's place.
I came. Don't call him without honorific.
Didn't it annoy you?
I felt annoyed. He has girlfriend. Hey, listen to me.
It's okay, I will listen to you next time. Why next time? Now!
Because he was with her when I came.
Well, it's natural, isn't it.
Well, just give up on him already.
It's not about giving up. Eh?
It's not about giving up, you know.
Well, because it's something like faith.
Eh, what is it? What are you saying?
It's okay. Even I explain it, you won't understand, Miki.
Well, it's not like I want you to explain it.
Well, it's not like I like him or something.
Because I decided to live with him for the rest of my life.
So, if I just stop it
the feeling of wanting to be with him forever
it will become a lie isn't it. Yes, yes, just stop it.
That's why it's not about giving up!
What is it, what a kid! You're the one who's like a kid.
Shut up, kid! Kid!
Koichi, I wonder if he will come suddenly.
Maybe she's not here. She's here.
Ah, welcome.
How are you?
She's fine, right.
Ah, just come in. Ah, it's okay. Let's just go somewhere.
Eh... but it takes money.
Mm, this. Okaasan made this.
What is it?
This... look, what's the name... Stuffed doll?
I wonder if you want to put it on your bag or something.
Ah, that's good.
Ah, you don't have to wear it.
Is it embarassing?
Thank you.
