希望に燃える 恋の歌 Kiboueru ni moeru koi no uta In a burning with hope, song of love
Dad...
...several days have now passed...
...since I started work at Suzufuritei.
Now that I'm getting home much later than before, the mornings are harder for me...
So I'm sleepy in the mornings...
Hurry and wake up and stop that alarm.
Stop it!
My, my! Every morning is intense, isn't it?
The wooden apartments of this time leaked sounds, didn't they?
Mineko's alarm clock is making a huge sound again.
It's morning already, huh...
My, my, will he be okay sleeping through that sound?
Even so, he hasn't drawn a thing, has he?
Ah! While this one isn't perturbed by the clock at all.
He's studying for his college exams. That's difficult, isn't it?
This is an odd time...
Good morning!
'Morning!
I'll clean the duster and polish the rice.
Yeah. Please do.
Yes.
Dad... My favorite time, prepping to open the restaurant, has started.
We're going to be busy today, too.
Yes, this Hash is done!
Yes!
The Hash for Table 4 is ready!
Genji! Prep the meat for the Hash.
Yes!
Here, the saute is ready!
The saute is ready! Hurry and take it!
Yes.
She was pissed...
Here, the Shrimp is ready! Hurry and take it!
Don't space out!
Yes.
In saying I preferred prepping for the restaurant's opening...
...I mean that once the restaurant opens, I'm still terribly hopeless...
Looking at it objectively...
Now that Hide-san, who had worked both Dining Hall and Kitchen up till now, had returned to it...
...the Kitchen's fighting strength had gone up...
Um, please wait a moment for the bread.
While compared to them, the fighting strength here in the Dining Hall had clearly gone down.
And that's because it had gone from Hide-san to me.
Sorry for keeping you waiting. Excuse me.
Still, Dad.
If it can be said there's just one thing I can boast about...
...it's that there's just one thing I haven't done.
I can't do that one thing. I must be careful.
Could you say it's my point of pride... or the thing I can boast about...
It's that, from when I started work until today, I haven't dropped...
Here, the Cutlet is ready!
...not one dish. Not one single dish...
Here, the Burg is ready! Stop spacing off and take this already!
Yes! Ah...
Don't break...
It did...
Oi.
Yes.
What's up?
Yeah.
Could I have a minute with all of you?
Come have a seat.
Come, all of you sit down.
Mineko.
Are you okay?
Ah... yes.
You feel down about that, don't you?
Eh?
You haven't broken a dish ever since you started work, have you?
You knew that?
Of course we'd know that. That was too bad, wasn't it?
Ehh, you're incredible, Mineko.
No, to praise me for breaking one...
Ah, that's right, I was!
Eh?
Huh?
You're feeling down because this was the first time you broke a dish, Mineko?
Ah... yes...
What is this?
Eh?
Eh? It was that? What is this...
Eh? I'm sorry...
No, no, that's okay.
Ah, really?
What's the matter?
Eh?
Well... I thought I'd get to have a slightly cool talk with you about things, but it was just that?
What is that, geez. Since this is a good occasion, just say it.
What "good occasion"?
Well...
Even though I try to be careful about it...
...when things get busy, I start raising my voice and shouting, "Hurry and take it" like that...
Look, Taka-chan can deal with that...
...but... I thought I had frightened Mineko with it.
Eh?
It was that, huh?
What was that "Taka-chan can deal with it" bit?
Eh? Did I say something like that?
You did.
What do you mean by, "she can deal with it"?
Eh?
"You're used to it, so you're okay with it," sort of meaning, isn't it?
That's it.
Hmm... In that case, it's fine.
That doesn't bother me at all.
Eh? It doesn't?
No.
Can't you be a nicer person? She's the far more amazing one.
That's true, huh. In that case, it's fine.
But I hate it.
My dead Dad would never, ever get angry...
...and no matter how busy it got...
...if someone made a blunder he would have this big grin on...
...and say, "It's okay, you can do it."
That's the kind of man he was.
That's why I wanted a restaurant like that, too.
Well, when I was young, I went and studied at another restaurant.
A bigger and more famous place...
Actually, I studied quite a lot there.
But their Kitchen and Dining Hall weren't connected like ours is and the Kitchen was separate.
So I never saw the customers. Or even heard them.
That's why...
...things got rather bad there.
There was shouting and the bosses would hit their underlings...
It was the same for the people in the Dining Hall, too...
It was terrible.
I wondered how I could make delicious dishes...
...in an atmosphere like that...
It was like that in the military, too.
No matter what you did wrong...
...there was always a guy there to shout at you and beat you.
That was a painful thing to watch.
If I protected them, then I'd get beaten the next time.
"What is this?" I thought.
This is the first I've heard of this story.
You've never talked about your life in the army.
Because I wanted to forget it.
But...
...the saddest thing was...
...that the guy who...
...had joined last and was far below me would receive the harshest attacks.
When the guy at the bottom would get hit, it was like I was doing it to him.
"I hate seeing this," I thought.
"I don't want to see it," I thought.
But...
People...
...can't live by hurting one another like that.
I think it's something like that...
That there are parts of us humans that are just unreasonable.
That's why it made me even sadder...
...and to come to hate that.
When the war was over...
I thought, "Ah, I won't have to see such things anymore."
I was happy about that.
Sorry for telling that story.
Well...
That's why I felt I didn't want...
...Mineko to come to notice that in me and become afraid of me.
It was no such thing.
Really?
Yes!
I'm sorry that this made you think about such things.
Still, well, there's that, isn't there?
Huh? What's that?
Those times when the dishes are ready but we can't easily take them away...
...being told, "Hurry and take it," does make me a bit angry, though.
Really?
We have to do that.
It's only natural we'd want them taken away before they got cold, right?
Eh? Yes, well...
Of course what you say is right. You're right!
Anyhow, we want to deliver them as soon as possible, too.
But our jobs aren't only about delivering the dishes.
We have to get things prepared first...
...and there's a mountain of other work to this job.
So when I'm told a dish is ready and to hurry and take it...
...it gives me this "I know that already!" feeling.
That's true, isn't it?
I see.
Huh?
Right?
Well, still, I do get a bit of payback in.
Payback?
Yeah. Really just a little though.
At what times?
When a customer has made an order...
...I'll say, "Excuse me! Isn't that Cutlet ready yet?" like this.
I know that look!
She does that.
That's Takako-san's "I'm pissed off" face.
What was that, Hide?
No, it was nothing...
Such a thing is fine, just fine. Right?
It is.
"Hide, isn't it ready yet?"
Oh, that's angry!
"It's almost done, though."
"Hide, isn't it ready yet?"
"It's almost done, though."
Dad. I feel that I've been blessed.
This is a wonderful workplace. I'm grateful for it.
Dad, are you working somewhere?
Do they laugh there?
"One galoni, please!"
