Good morning.

Good morning.

Are you going to the Kannon temple festival?

I'm not sure.

It's so cold that I can't wash clothes.

You've woken up.

Let's go take a morning bath?

If you want.

I couldn't stand the practice last night.

It's a snowy sky.

Let's take a day off work.

But it's the first day.

We can't both be absent.

I want a comfortable life,

to have a baby.

Should I consult a doctor?

Five years have gone by, but I haven't had one at all.

Maybe we can't.

You're dancing and jumping all day at work.

So you can't have a baby.

But Yone and Mari have had babies.

- You don't want one? - Not really.

I'm fed up with my life.

I understand.

You shouldn't have married a dancer like me.

What are you saying!

What do you think of going back to my home town?

- The town where my brother lives. - No way.

- You don't want? - No, thanks, your family keep a temple.

I don't want to live and work at a temple.

Hanae? Are you there?

Yes!

- Good morning, you have a telegram. - Thank you.

At 11:30, I'll arrive at Ueno Station. Chiyomi

- My sister said she was coming. - Your sister?

- Your younger sister? - Yes, a bus conductress.

Maybe she got tired of her job.

Oh, it's about time for work.

- Can you go to meet her at the station? - No, I need to go to the playhouse.

I remember one thing.

I promised Yone to play with her before going on stage.

Please tell her that I'll be absent today.

But, I don't know why my sister is coming.

Want to eat something?

No, I'll have a glass of milk later.

A button has come off.

Please sew on it.

Yama san.

Where is Hanae?

She's off today.

Welcome!

- Not at work today? - No, not today.

- Is this the theater where you dance? - Yes.

There's your photo!

Welcome!

The entrance is here!

Wow, you are like a queen!

Welcome! The entrance is here!

Chaan, chan.

The dance didn't fit with the music.

Thank you.

Wonderful!

Your brother will come soon.

- You should greet him. - OK.

He's a nice person, isn't he?

He's nervous.

Because he is an artist.

- I understand. - He doesn't laugh very often.

Darling, this is Chiyomi.

I'm Chiyomi. I'm pleased to meet you.

Welcome.

- She wants to live in Tokyo. - Really.

Chiyomi, you should greet them.

- I'm pleased to meet you. - Hello.

Hello.

You haven't had dinner, right?

She wants to try Okonomiyaki.

- Okonomiyaki? - I love it.

Then, let's go.

Are you off, today?

- Yes. - Her sister has come from Kanazawa.

He is a choreographer, Mr. Tamura.

Hello.

I'm Tamura.

You are sexy!

- Let's go. - See you.

Chiyo, let's go.

Kiyomi...

You are slow. Be careful.

OKONOMIYAKI Restaurant

TAKEYA-

Thank you.

I say,

why don't you be a dancer?

In Tokyo,

it's difficult to be a waiter,

and to be a bus conductress. You think so, don't you?

But,

we're working all through the year.

We need to do the same thing 3 or 4 times per day.

Only one out of 10 dancers can be a star.

I feel sorry for your sister.

She'll never

- be a housewife. - Excuse me.

Can I eat it?

You can eat more?

Here you are.

Of course.

You are a growing girl with a healthy appetite.

You can eat it, too.

You have good appetites.

Although I'm really worried about you.

I'm sorry.

You said "Sorry" to me?

Mr. Yamano!

The directer is very happy.

To find a new talent.

It's about you.

Hey, Mr. Yamano.

As you know.

I'm sorry to say it in front of Hanae.

In fact, we need a brilliant star.

I understand.

- Excuse me, please take a glass. - OK.

Now we are talking.

We don't know if she can be a star or not.

But we can ask someone to teach her.

If you can take care of her, it's just what I wanted.

If you leave her to me for two or three months,

she will be a success.

What do you think?

Wow, it's snowing!

As you see, she's still a a child.

That's the good thing.

1, 2, 2, 2,

3, 2, 4, 2, 5, 2, 6, 2,

7, 2, 8, 2, 1, 2,

That's all for today.

If you don't make an effort, the new girls will pass you by.

- Yes. - OK, good.

I have something to say to you later.

Mr. Tamura, I can't understand some parts. Can you show me?

Welcome!

Welcome!

Thank you!

- I understand. - OK?

- Thank you for the dinner. - See you.

Thank you for waiting.

Thank you.

2 orders of Ra-men!

You've arrived already!

Who are they?

Students, we meet in the OKONOMIYAKI restaurant sometimes.

Welcome!

What do you want to eat?

The students said to invite me, so I ate a bowl of Chinese rice.

Then you don't need anything.

Can I have a steamed meat dumpling?

Chinese noodles and a steamed meat dumpling, please.

Hey, what do you want to talk about?

I know what.

I want you to visit Yurakucho revue.

Really? How wonderful!

- Welcome. - Thank you.

2 orders of Fried rice.

Fried noodle, wait a minute please.

I want to change the dance. Do you know where Mr. Tamura is?

I don't know. I'm looking for him.

There's no help for it.

I'll buy it.

I'll buy this.

Not yet. Please take it next time.

I'll buy this and this.

Please give me one.

Your sister was in the Chinese restaurant with Mr. Tamura.

I asked him to teach her.

- Someday I'd like her to be a dancer. - It's OK to be a dancer.

- But, she needs to be careful with him. - What do you mean?

Mr. Tamura.

He may cast her in the good part.

What are you saying?

You don't know about Mr. Tamura?

I know something about him.

But I'm not worried. My sister is a child yet.

If you think like that, it's OK for me. I'm sorry.

Property man!

Property man!

- You're back. - Yes.

Why don't you turn on the light?

Chiyomi hasn't come back?

Is she still with Mr. Tamura?

She can't help enjoying life. She's just come from the country.

My friend gave me a piece of advice.

We can trust Mr. Tamura, right?

About what?

No, it's OK.

He has a daughter like Chiyomi. I can't imagine it happening.

By the way, how about her dancing?

Is there a possibility?

Mr. Tamura said she seemed to have talent.

But...

I don't want to live with her forever.

There's no help for it. She's your younger sister.

At least, until she's a dancer.

But...

I can hardly talk with you.

She's a complete child.

She doesn't realize that she's a nuisance for us.

Even my sister.

If we had money,

we could rent another house.

I feel sorry for you.

I'm back!

Chiyo.

- I said many times you should knock. - Oh.

I didn't see anything.

Where were you?

With Mr. Tamura.

You're very late.

Brother, Mr. Tamura said,

I can appear on stage soon.

How nice.

Chiyo.

You'll do your best.

I should have had Chinese noodles.

You are a glutton.

Please keep this money for me.

Money?

Yes, 1600 yen.

It's the rest of the severance pay from the bus company.

Why don't you ask your sister to keep it?

She just says to deposit it in a bank.

Please.

Chiyo, wake up!

I'm sleepy.

You should see me.

I'll dance as soon as I'm at the theatre. I've not even time to wash my face.

How about brother?

He's on the late shift today. Please prepare a meal for him.

Chiyo!

Oh, you're naked?

No!

- Why don't you wear pajamas? - I like to sleep without pajamas!

You are such an untidy girl!

Please take care of your brother-in-law.

I bought it at the shopping district.

You are a bad girl.

You, too.

Yes, me too.

It's our secret, OK?

Don't tell anybody.

Of course not.

Can I smoke this?

You want to say, "You're too young to smoke", right?

- When did you first smoke? - On the train.

Don't smoke.

It makes you dizzy.

I want to try everything.

You mean about the last night?

You are ill-natured.

I couldn't sleep.

I was thinking you didn't like me anymore.

- I don't dislike you. - Really?

Then, I'm happy.

Someone like you likes me.

I'm a good-for-nothing.

Your sister trusted that I would succeed.

Do you think so?

She really loves you.

I completely understand.

So, if she knows about us, I need to leave here.

Chiyo.

So.

We should forget about last night.

You're a sly one.

You try to make yourself look good.

But, I...

I don't want Hanae to think...

No, I don't want to hear about her now.

Hey, what are you doing?

Sorry, just the collar is missing.

Why are you sewing here?

I picked up a bargain nearby.

My sister can wear it as pajamas.

How I envy her! If I had a sister like Hanae!

Her sister is happy and also Mr. Yamano.

So, he's an honest man. I've never heard any gossip about him.

He has patience with me who has no hope of getting ahead.

Have you all heard? She'll treat us! What do you want, Chie?

- I'll have Chinese rice! - Me too!

- Fried dumplings! - Me too.

- What do you want, Teru? - I don't want any.

You don't want? It's a chance!

Because,

it's not a good reason that Hanae needs to treat me.

You are an argumentative person. As you like!

Are you ready?

Where is Mr. Yama?

He isn't around?

Maybe he's eating.

- Welcome. - Please 2 Ramens.

Wonton for me, please.

About the rumor you said, I saw them.

In the bar in front of Tenpooin Temple, I saw her and Mr. Tamura.

Neither Mr. Yama nor Hanae know about it.

Both of them are good-natured.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Have you seen Mr. Tamura?

We are going to meet tomorrow.

It's about Chiyomi.

Please ask him about Chiyomi.

Let's eat Soba noodles?

OK.

I'm sorry to come.

No, don't worry.

Recently I've been tired.

It's very lively at Asakusa.

You can take a holiday.

Let's have a drink!

Please another one.

Thank you for taking care of Chiyomi.

Not at all.

To tell the truth, I need to talk about Chiyomi.

First, I was thinking of telling Hanae.

- But, I suppose it's better to tell you. - Thank you for your kindness.

It's the first time, anyway.

I've no idea how much she can earn.

I know.

To tell the truth, I have a problem.

About Chiyomi?

She...

I suppose she has a bad habit.

A bad habit?

About one of my students.

She put 2000 yen on the piano to pay me for a score, but the money disappeared.

- Did you see it? - No, I didn't.

But there was only Chiyomi.

Have you realized something about her?

It's a pity.

She has a good figure and she's very expressive.

Listen.

I don't want to kill off her talent.

So I want to forget this habit of hers.

Anyway, this is a secret just between us.

Thank you so much.

Please.

- Please don't tell Hanae. - Of course not.

Welcome home!

What do you think of this hairstyle?

I copied my sister's.

What happened?

I need to talk with you.

What do you want to say?

Are you going to scold me?

Please, don't scold me.

If I'm scolded by you, I'll just die.

You should be a good girl.

I'm in trouble if you're a problem girl.

Please, don't do it! That hurts!

When did you come home?

What happened? The door was open.

I thought I'd take you to rehearsals tonight. You should get ready.

Has he come back?

He's coming from the dry cleaners.

Why is he there?

Because...

I asked him to see my practice.

In the room, the dust gets blown up in the air.

Are you OK? You look pale.

Do you feel sick?

Have you taken any medicine?

I'll speak to the theater if you want to miss rehearsals?

What happened?

- Please tell me. - Hanae!

Please leave him alone.

Chiyomi, just worry about yourself. Get ready to go out!

OK.

No, no!

Teru, your legs and arms!

Piano, once more!

3, 4!

I've already learned this dance.

Quiet! Don't talk so loud.

Stop, stop!

No good!

Think you can dance better?

There's nothing to be done.

Let's take a rest!

Chiyo, please get dressed.

Chiyomi can substitute for her?

If she doesn't mind.

Chiyo, let's go get ready.

- Hurry up, please. - OK.

Terumi, take off your costume quick!

- You and I need to pay attention to her. - Yes.

I'm worried about it.

Please take care of the matter.

Chiyo, Please do what I couldn't do.

What's wrong? Your skin is chapped.

- Your makeup doesn't stay on well. - Please stop.

Good luck!

Can I put on these shoes?

Teru, please don't think ill of her.

I'll ask Mr. Tamura to give you a good role.

Don't worry about it.

It's my fault.

Before, Mr. Tamura said...

A woman who has never had a man,

has a sallow skin.

But, I don't want to become corrupted.

Let's have Soba! Or do you prefer Sushi?

I'll buy 2 balls of Soba. I'll eat with you, OK?

We live in a dangerous world these days. Your platinum ring was stolen!

Yes.

It hasn't occurred for a long time.

That's right.

You didn't leave it in your room?

I'm sure I put it here.

Just for 2 or 3 minutes while I went to the rooftop.

Really.

In these flats, is there a thief?

We've been in ever since this morning.

I'm responsible for this trouble as caretaker of this flat.

How weird! Let's report it to the police to catch the thief.

I agree!

Auntie, I'll have some chewing gum. On credit.

Something nice...

I'll have this.

- I'll buy it on credit. - This?

Do you know where Hanae is?

Hanae is taking a bath.

- Is Chiyomi with her? - Chiyomi goes to a public bath.

- Mr. Yama, it's rare you come here. - Here is closed to men!

- Where's Chiyomi's dressing table? - There.

It's a not good idea to touch things around there.

You'll be suspected. Recently many things have disappeared.

Mr. Yama, you should treat us.

How is this?

I'll have it.

What are you doing here?

Nothing special.

Please tell Chiyomi.

About what?

Sometimes she can't keep rhythm, so it makes me nervous.

Mr. Yama.

I would like to ask you.

What do you want to ask me?

When you see me,

it doesn't make you nervous?

Recently.

Your tone of violin,

is wonderful.

I'm worried.

When you started to go around with me,

you said many times:

"Thanks to you, my tone became clear."

I can't forget this.

Chiyo.

Yes.

Please come here.

What?

Teru.

If you had done like her, you wouldn't have lost your part.

What are you doing?

Do you understand?

1, 2, 3, 4, and 2, 2, 3.

Do you understand?

Are you OK? What happened?

No...

Nothing special.

What strange people!

You shouldn't steal.

I know all about you.

If you want something, you can tell me.

Something is wrong with my body.

I suppose I'm having a baby.

Please think how I should manage it.

Baby?

I don't want to go to the hospital.

Don't worry.

I just want some money.

- You are awfully late. - Sorry.

I need to ask your advice.

What's up?

- About Chiyomi. - She did again?

Please.

Don't get angry with me.

What happened?

Chiyomi is pregnant.

Then the father of her baby is...

I should know better at my age, but it's me.

I don't want my wife to know.

I feel I owe her a lot.

Of course, I'll try to find a solution.

But, I need to depend on your kindness.

Hanae and Chiyomi changed the dance and they want you to check.

Please, help me.

I'm back.

What's up? You said something about it to her?

I suppose she knows it already.

She's always meddling.

Yes.

I know.

Do you think I haven't realized anything?

You don't go to the playhouse with me,

and you don't have a bath backstage with me, either.

Chiyomi...

You are pregnant.

Who is the father?

Who?

Please tell me.

Darling, you must know who it is.

Please.

As I supposed, it's you!

I'm disappointed in you.

I know I'm a good-natured person.

But you shouldn't look down on me!

If you prefer Chiyomi, you can marry her.

I'll leave, as you want!

Chiyomi...

What?

Hey.

You must feel cold with bare feet.

I know, I'm minor actress.

I understand why you'd leave me.

So...

Please take care of her.

You shouldn't speak like that.

I...

You're a precious woman for me...

And you had an affair with her?

We shouldn't live with her.

I'm so upset!

I can't have a child.

Darling.

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me.

I'll never forgive you.

I'll blame you my whole life.

It's started to rain.

Can I go to other hospitals?

All the doctors would say the same.

It serves you right!

You deserve to suffer.

Then, I should have a baby at any cost?

You should have noticed when you were 2 or 3 months pregnant.

I regret that I was born a woman.

Chiyo.

I want to see your baby.

No! I don't want to have it.

I'll bring up your baby.

Because he's the father.

And...

Hanae.

You don't hate me?

Of course, I hate you so much I could push you over a cliff.

But...

You are pregnant.

I can't do it.

For appearance's sake,

you should have stayed in a maternity hospital earlier.

I've lived in Asakusa for 10 years.

I'm over 30 years old at last.

But it's not wasted time.

- You have a child - You have a sharp tongue, don't you?

Is it a secret?

Let's buy a racket.

Which design, with a girl doll or a boy?

We don't know yet until the baby is born.

Sakurai maternity hospital

What's up?

I'll be here.

Are you afraid of seeing her?

This way, please.

For your baby?

You don't think anything about your baby at all.

But I don't know until the baby is born.

You are a bad mother.

It's a present in advance.

- I prefer something to eat. - I know.

I have a big appetite. My stomach is like a bottomless pit!

This is rice cake from the brother who works at the temple.

And, rice cake with beans, cream puffs, and a sandwich.

Rice crackers, and mandarin oranges.

- Not enough? - You didn't get Sushi?

- Next time I'll get it. - For two, please.

You eat a lot. You don't have stomach trouble?

She is a Geisha at Mukoojima.

Thank you for taking care of my sister.

I'm Sayu, nice to meet you. She is in good health and eats well.

The baby is moving in my belly.

Thank you. You always share with me.

- Likewise. - Be quiet.

Listen the tolling of temple bells

108 times on New Year's Eve. I'll visit Kannon to pray for your baby.

You'll leave now?

- He's waiting. - He's here?

Take care.

Please look after my sister.

How rude!

Why didn't he come in!

We can eat the same number as our age.

You'll know how old I am!

Hanae! Hanae!

We've just had a phone call.

Your sister had a girl.

How nice!

Sakurai maternity hospital

Chiyo...

Where is she?

She is there.

I was disgusted giving birth to a baby. It's really hard.

Your baby is a girl.

I think I'll name her Yukiko.

Because, when you came to Tokyo the first time, it was snowing.

And also it started snowing today. What do you think?

You came here alone?

Please come in!

He is embarrassed.

She looks just like her mother.

She said the baby looks like Chiyomi.

Can I hold her?

She looks like you, too?

She's like a little monkey!

I'll leave.

I've marked the amount of powdered milk on the baby bottle.

Don't get it wrong.

When you return to work, we'll need to leave her with someone.

Hanae.

I...

I'm too lazy to dance.

Then, why don't you rest?

I want to be a Geisha.

Geisha?

Because, a Geisha doesn't need to do a stage rehearsal.

I don't know. You can consult with your brother-in-law.

Hey.

If I become a Geisha, can you take care of her?

I was thinking of taking care of her.

But I don't agree with being a Geisha.

Yukiko, your mother is a problem person.

- You shouldn't hold her like that. - OK.

- Don't forget the milk. - OK.

Has she left?

Yes, she has

I was scolded.

I know.

Do you know what a Geisha needs to do?

It's not just serving sake.

I know.

For the job, they have a baby.

Because they have a patron.

You know? The Geisha, my roommate, has some patrons.

Two or three men came to visit her.

Cream, please.

But...

Even if some men visited her,

it's possible that not all the men are her patrons.

I don't know too well, but I suppose so for their behaviour.

You are sly like a fox.

I didn't realize at all about you and Mr. Tamura.

Don't say that, please.

He or I, who was the first?

I wanted to ask you.

I don't remember.

Your father told a strange story!

Yukiko is my daughter, isn't she?

Is it OK?

Mr. Yama.

I want to see you quietly.

Don't you think so?

There, there.

Hagie? I'm Chiyomi.

I'm here, near your house to consult with you.

But my baby is crying a lot.

I'll come again tonight when I leave her with my sister.

Please give me some advice.

You leave her alone. There, there.

Don't cry, don't cry.

Good girl, good girl.

I suppose she takes after you.

There, there. Where is your mother?

Can you look for her?

There, there.

Poor girl, there, there.

Excuse me.

- Do you know if Chiyomi went out? - Isn't she in the house?

I heard her singing a nursery song.

There, there.

Chiyo!

She hasn't come back as I supposed.

- Please get up, she isn't here. - She hasn't come back?

Do you remember? She said she wanted to be a Geisha.

- No way! - But what we know about her, so maybe...

I want to know what she is thinking.

There, there. I suppose she wants some milk.

Can you prepare it?

I need to change her nappy.

- How much powder should I put in? - Follow the instructions on the can.

Powdered milk...

I'll prepare the milk. Can you change her nappy?

- I need to change it? - Of course, she's your daughter!

There, there.

Wait a moment.

- Good morning! - Wow!

Can I hold her in my arms?

OK, OK.

- Don't shake her! - Whose baby?

Ours!

Hey, this.

Mr.Yama, don't feel shy in front of us.

Please give her some milk!

Hey, Yama.

They are having a lively time.

We took the baby, Chiyomi's.

Chiyomi's baby?

Let's drink to her health.

Yama.

I heard Chiyomi would start work as a Geisha at Haginoya teahouse in Mukoujima.

Who said so?

She called me to say so.

Let's visit her.

We didn't force her to work here.

But she wanted to.

- Thank you for taking care of her. - You're welcome.

Chiyomi?

Chiyomi, come here!

Good evening!

Does it suit me?

- I didn't recommend working here. - I know.

She wears my wig and Kimono, and she is totally ready to work.

But, first.

I think you should consult with your sister.

I think it's a good idea.

- Then, why don't you go do it with him? - OK, let's go!

Chiyo.

Why didn't you tell us? But you told Mr. Tamura, didn't you?

I wanted him to prepare a kimono for me.

He has a duty to do it for me.

I don't want you to work as a Geisha.

But.

I felt free after I crossed the Ookawa river.

- Free? - From my sister's eyes.

Mr. Yama. Please come here sometimes.

- We can meet quietly. - Don't say that.

I'm afraid if I do I may not be able to forget you.

Forget me?

Don't say that, please.

Why don't you stay tonight?

You can tell Hanae, you were waiting for me until I came back.

Or you can't see the landlady, etc.

SUMIDA Hotel

This way, please.

It's your key.

I'm sorry for the mess.

Would you like a bottle of beer?

- Yes, one bottle, please. - Certainly, sir.

I'm really happy to be alone with you!

How do you know a place like this?

- Have you been here with Mr. Tamura? - No, I don't like him.

Then, with whom?

Why do you care about it?

Don't ask me, please.

Yes!

Thank you for waiting.

- What a nuisance it is. - Thank you.

I feel much better!

Chiyo.

I was thinking,

I was your first man.

Oh, no!

I hate you!

I'm a really bad woman, right?

But, it can't be helped.

When someone tempts me, I can't refuse.

But you are special.

I love you.

I...

I'm tired of telling lies.

You...

You should get married.

Find someone serious.

Don't say that!

I hate you!

Thank you so much. You could pay after payday.

- I can't do it, because I'll quit. - Will you really?

Really...

Teru, will you quit?

Yes, thank you for everything.

- Are you going to work somewhere? - No, I won't.

I'll study to be a nurse.

Really.

How nice.

- Then, good luck! Will you come see us someday, right? - Yes, of course.

Then, please say thank you to everyone.

Teru!

Madam, do you have something for her?

I'll take this.

For you.

- Thank you. - Take care!

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Goodbye.

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Hanae!

You've lost weight.

I'm sorry, Mr. Tamura. I can't sleep well for the baby.

You are a perfect wife.

Mr. Yama is so lucky.

- About what? - Nothing.

Mr. Yama!

Let's toast your marvelous wife.

What do you want to say?

About Chiyo.

It seems I'm not the only one responsible for her, right?

What do you mean?

Can I speak in front of your wife?

Stop it!

- Please wait a moment. - OK, hurry up.

Hi!

- Long time no see! - I haven't seen you for a long time!

You've changed so much! Have a seat, please!

- Here. - Thank you so much!

Please keep it until my sister comes back.

- OK. - Then, good-bye.

Your sister is in her room.

Is she here? Thank you!

Hi.

- Chiyo! - Hi!

How are you doing? Is the playhouse off today?

No.

- Hi. - Hi.

Long time no see.

How have you been?

We are thinking of leaving our job.

Oh, why?

For various reasons.

I'm tired of Asakusa.

You see? She's grown a lot!

Here you are.

- How heavy! - She is pretty, isn't she?

Mama, welcome!

I've quit my job.

- Are you tired? - No.

- Then, will you get married? - No, more simple.

I'll be a mistress.

- Or the second mistress. - A second mistress?

He'll pay all my debts,

and I can learn the tea ceremony, flower arrangement, and ballet.

- What does he do? - President of a foundry in Kawaguchi.

He was a taxi driver.

So, this is our destiny.

I was a bus conductress. He's waiting me in the car.

- Then, can I invite him in? - No, don't worry.

I'm in a hurry.

He'll take me to Atami now.

- Please say something to her. - Excuse me.

This is a present for you.

Thank you.

Please.

Take care.

We are thinking of going back our home town.

And we'll try once more.

It's better for the child.

Living in the countryside is so boring. You should think it over!

I'll try to do well.

Bye-bye!

Goodbye.

Please take care of her.

Goodbye!

There, there.

Though we don't want to leave here,

we need to say goodbye now to Asakusa.

We've lived here for ten years.

I've spent ten years here but it flew by so fast.

I've given you so much trouble.

Never mind.

It's been pleasant at times.

Why don't you drink?

Thank you.

I hope Chiyomi will be happy.

Are you crying?

Runny nose.

Spring and the summer passed, and now in the autumn.

It's the dance class.

Come here, hurry!

It's the dance class.

Hurry up!

Chiyo!

I just came.

You just came?

What's wrong?

When I arrived at the station, I just got a train for here.

How is your patron?

We've broken up for a while.

You are incredible...

Please, don't be angry with me.

I'm fed up with myself.

I feel sorry for you.

Yuki has grown a lot.

You can see her.

No, I won't.

You are very good to her.

- Why don't you see Mr. Yama? - No, I won't see him.

Please, go back. I'm only here a short while.

Please, go back! I'm leaving here soon.

Close your hands then hold them open. Clap your hands then close them again.

Hold your hands open again then clap them.

Put your hands up in the air.

The sun is shining, the sun is shining.

The sun is shining brightly.
