"My mom's" "It's no good, you need your own license" "His mom is sick" "The law is law, you have to leave" "I will not punish you" "Teacher" "How is your mom?" "She is out of bed" "Take good care of her" "Teacher" "Koyo Electric turned down your student" "Personnel Department, please" "May I speak to Mr Kuhara?" "I see Thank you" "Mr Kuhara's residence?" "I hear Yuji is sick, how is he?" "May I speak to him?" "Having only one parent isn't a decision factor" "His poverty doesn't matter much, either" "But broken families often produce crooked children" "I suppose you know that" "Companies respect honesty the most" "It can't be helped" "All of that is a generalization" "Try to understand" "Forget this Concentrate on something more important" "What's most important for me now is, my student's future" "I am his teacher" "But you don't care if he fell victim to such illogical reason" "Try to understand" "It pains me to talk with you like this" "No thanks" "You don't care about the boy's misfortune?" "You have talked too much" "Sorry" "I am so excited I may say anything" "Why so soon?" "My father's here." "Please make yourself at home" "Thanks But I think I would better go" "Ms Akiyama, I heard you" "You are right" "Oh brother" "Shut up" "I will go with you" "Don't leave like this" "I don't like it, either" "Wait" "Please wait" "Let me tell you why I couldn't help him" "You know he sold his pigeons?" "It wasn't the first time" "He made use of the sense of home instinct of the pigeons" "He sold the pigeons many times" "Really?" "We sympathized him and want to help him" "But we are confused of the issue" "He is a sort of swindler" "Swindler?" "Maybe, I have said too much" "But we can't overlook that" "Does Kyoko know he sold the pigeons many times?" "I have not told her" "I don't want to hurt her" "And I don't want to hurt you as well or hurt our relationship" "Am I wrong?" "I don't know" "Let me think" "He is poor and has no father, but he is a good boy" "He wasn't ashamed when I saw him shining shoes" "He's great" "What's wrong with him?" "Brother!" "Kyoko!" "Do something" "Sorry, it's all settled" "Do you think I am crooked because I have no mother?" "No, you are a good daughter" "Please hire him" "Stop being childish" "You can't live on sympathy alone" "Hope this help you be mature" "You are tired, go to bed sooner" "Masao, you flunked" "Because you sold the pigeons" "Did you do it many times?" "Yes" "I thought you have told me everything" "If you need money, you can tell me" "Kyoko's brother can't help you because of this" "You needn't help him" "I just hope this" "I will send him to school" "Does Kyoko know?" "No" "Sorry to have troubled you" "That's alright" "I could have told you tomorrow" "But I couldn't stand thinking about it alone" "That's why I came" "Don't be disappointed" "Don't worry" "I will try to find him another job" "Masao" "See you at school tomorrow" "Take care of your mother" "Sorry" "Forwhat?" "You sold the pigeons for me" "You do it because of me" "I am really sorry" "Never mind" "Shouldn't we have sold the pigeons?" "I don't think so" "We have no choice" "They think you are wrong" "I am sad too" "Mom" "Let's sell the pigeon again" "Masao!" "What are you doing?" "Selling it?" "Again?" "Why?" "If you need money, you can tell me" "I know you failed" "But it's the company's fault" "I apologize for my father and brother" "Sorry that I can't help you" "Even you failed, we are still friend?" "Why must you sell that pigeon again?" "What a shame" "Sorry, it is not just the second time" "I did it many times" "Pigeons return home after being sold" "I sell them again" "It's like swindling" "One of the pigeons I sold you has returned" "Sorry I didn't tell you sooner" "I will buy it" "But it will never return" "Okay?" "Don't you want it anymore?" "I guess I shouldn't have had pigeons" "Goodbye" "What are you doing?" "I will burn it" "But..." "Masao, what if the pigeon comes back?" "It won't come back again" "Why?" "Just won't No reason" "Yasue, why don't you draw me?" "You just play with dead animals?" "I will stay besides you" "Your brotherwill work for us" "But not in the place like this" "Are you saying we're finished?" "Yes" "Why?" "Because there are too many problem between us" "I went to see that boy last night" "Planed to scold him but failed" "I thought he had no choice" "I understand his condition" "If I were him" "I would be the same" "Sell pigeons?" "Yes, I may have to do something to live" "Even the world disapproves" "And you wouldn't overlook it" "I will" "I know how hard it is to live" "But you have not forgiven him" "Well..." "I know how you feel" "But your position forced it" "You will have to do it again" "I thought we should disregard that and get along" "I have wanted to say it" "Never mind" "I have been happy to be with you this 2 months" "Forgot my position" "Me too" "I know this kind of happiness will never come again" "But I feel guilty towards my student" "I will return to my position as a teacher" "Really?" "There is a big gap between us" "Do you think we can fill it?" "Brother!" "Hurry, pick up your gun" "What's up?" "Do you think you could shoot it?" "Forwhat?" "Nothing" "Can you?" "Sure" "Really?" "Really" "Ready?" "Ready?" "Release!"
