" Japan" " Japan?" "Where the hell is that?" "Where are you heading to?" " Uluru" " Uluru" "We are on our way to our second burial" "Mom died" "We bury dead body twice" "First for the body and second for the bone how to return the bone to the ground" "That's right," "The blood and the sweat in the dead body will soak into the soil of dew and descend in the cypress spring under the ground" "The sould of dead body also follows that part and becomes holy spirit which lives down there" "When I close my eyes," "I only see your face" "What I remember, is your big mouth full of fried noodle bread," "and your face, crumpled up with laughter" "You guffed it up earnestly, then suddenly shifted and softened with a kind smile" "Your sleeping face on Yume Island" "I wish it was near enough to touch, now" "When you gave me a ride on your bike, the warmth of your back, meant the world to me" "All the memories of time I spent with you, made my life sparkle" "Thank you so much for being with me" "I'll never forget" "the precious time I spent with you" "I just have one last request" "Please scatter my ashes on the wind in Uluru" "And then, go on and live your life" "I'm so glad I met you" "Bye bye" "Coming here" "I feel like I've found the center of the world" "Like magic" "Just like Aki"
