"It's not a risky surgery." "But I need to have it... to connect my arteries and veins." "Is it an artery/vein shunt surgery?" "I did a little research on your illness." "Not that I understand it very well." "I'm a bit relieved... that it's not a very complex surgery." "Yeah." "I can't even live six months." "I told the doctor..." "Told him what?" "That I don't need to live more than six months." "But I don't want it any shorter than that." "And I'll haunt him if I die any sooner." "He looked like he was in a bind."

"It's not a complex one." "I see." "But you know... just the thought of it shakes me up." "I understand." "I have to go to Etsuko's uncle's house to get his consent for the surgery." "You have to go?" "Who else will go?" "Don't say it so proudly." "That's true." "She only has one relative." "But according to Etsuko..." "She doesn't even associate with him."

"Don't you want me to go with you?" "It says so on your face." "You're easy to figure out." "I'll go with you." "When are you going?" "tomorrow." "Tomorrow?" "Okay." "What is it?" "Nothing." "Thank you." "You are a big help." "Don't tell Etsuko that I'm going with you." "What?" "Why?" "I think it's for the best." "You'll seem hopeless as an adult." "That's true."

"at first." "But..." "I don't know anymore..." "if it's sympathy or not." "I'm not sure anymore." "I just want to make her happy... as much as I can." "I'll do anything for that." "What about your wife? but after I left her..." "I realized what a great woman she is." "It's something I didn't realize till I left her." "She's truly a great woman." "She's awesome." "Awesome." "isn't it?" "I guess." "What a bind I'm in!" "Will you tell me your life story?" "No." "I'm not an awful man like you." "What do you mean by that?" "You're beyond help." "You get insulting when you drink." "Will you go to visit her?" "She'll be happy." "Me?" "I don't like going to the hospital." "It's lonely...not to have a family." "But you have that fisherman." "Yeah." "That's a positive answer." "Yes." "It's still sad...to die." "isn't it?" "I wonder if he'll come to my funeral." "What?" "Nothing." "A funeral... is the last time anybody will gather for me." "I'll be the main person." "I have never been in the spotlight for anything." "Except for my wedding." "I'm sorry." "Why are you apologizing?" "Just felt like it." "I'm sorry." "What is it?" "It's been a while since we rode the train together." "isn't it?" "Yeah." "What are you saying?" "Where do you think we are headed now?" "but..." "Just thinking about it gives me a headache." "I'm sorry." "Never mind." "It's not all right." "Yes." "Say..." "What?" "Are you hungry?" "Yes." "Want to eat lunch on the train?" "let's eat." "Excuse me." "We want a couple bento." "I want tea." "Don't spill." "Hey!" "Eat your vegetables." "I know." "I'll eat it later."

"Probably." "That smile won't work on the Vice Principal." "Understand?" "Yes." "Where's Suguru today?" "He's in good hands." "Do I add in vinegar?" "It must be hard on you." "Don't you miss your dad?" "Not really." "You can come to me for advice anytime." "Aren't there things you want to turn to a man for?" "Not really." "You're lousy at it." "Don't say that." "You're no fun to play with." "Hey." "isn't he?" "What do you mean by that?" "Let's eat." "Thanks for the meal!" "It's terrible." "too!" "Don't say that." "This tastes awful!" "You always eat it quietly." "Stop acting lovey-dovey in our house." "you know." " Sorry." " Sorry." "I prefer to be alone." "Excuse me!" "There it is." "Kyoko..." "Hm?" "Will you wait for me somewhere?" "What?" "I think I should go alone from here." "Okay?" "Wait at that coffee shop." "Yes." "I'll be waiting." "I'll be going then."
