There is no need to worry, because I am with you.

I will protect you from everything.

Biology... I will be in charge of Biology. Hamura... I mean... My name is Hamura Takao.

Be good to me, please.

What's that girl's name?

Which one?

Taller one.

2-B Ninomiya Mayu.I bet. Mayu: cocoon. The difficult Kanji, you know.

Aim and follow through. Get it?

Yes, got it.

Try not to be friendly with him.

Why?

Various problems about him.

I was waiting for you.

Mayu.

Since when?

Waited for a long long time.

How come?

I don't know.

But...

I got to see your face.

I really really wanted to see you!

Is it too large?

Yes... too large.

Yes, I know.

A shirt is too large, isn't it?

Yeah.

There is a name tag.

When I was in University Lab. we gathered everyone's clothes and used a laundry.

I see. You must have a quarrel with your mother.

I do not have a mother.

Sorry.

Probably your father is worried about you.

My father is dead.

That is a bad joke.

It must be a desire to be a heroine of tragedy.

You have a lot of dirty clothes.

I only wash once a week.

She does not do the laundry?

She is not my wife, yet.

But if she really loves you...

What?

Nothing.

Pink hair-band is not allowed at school, you know?

Good morning.

Good morning.

I felt she was coming into my mind lately.

However... around this time... I could shake her out of my mind.

All I needed was a sigh.

This bag that belongs to Minako Yusa of 2-D. I found this from today's baggage check.

What is it?

Don't pretend. You know exactly what it is.

So we have a student carrying a condom in their bag. Is this a laughing matter?

Look at this school ID notebook. There is a written which love hotel she used.

Girls tend to write down anything.

Did you do the same, Teacher Miyahara?

No, I was an obedient student.

Who can vouch for it?

In my high school days...

Silence!

We should keep this to ourselves. PTA should not... Or, maybe too late.

We must show parents what strict schools should do.

Then, we should expel this student.

I got shocked.

About what?

So easy to expel students... so fast.

Timing is much more important.

Is that so? I had a feeling that you stood up...

I am no long such a type. Mind your own business.

What?

You shall be fired with one rumor with a student.

I don't have such a rumor...

Yesterday, there was a phone call that someone had seen a student coming out from your apartment.

I am the one who took the phone.

Even if you have no intention, students might be serious about love.

Love is everything... to our students.

Stand.

Bow.

Hana no iro wa. Utsuri ni keri na. Itazura ni.

Waga mi yo ni furu. Nagame seshi ma ni.

Thank you.

Hana no iro wa (Color of Flowers), Utsuri ni keri ni itazura nai (fades away abruptly).

We have learned some poems from 100 Poems by 100 Poets (Ogura Hyakunin Isshu)...

I made Teacher Fujimura a packed lunch. I named it Wake Up at 5am Lunch of Love! - Naoko

That's all for today.

Stand.

Bow.

I have prepared lunch for Teacher Fujimura.

I will buy bread at KIOSK.

Let's meet Teacher Hamura.

They are trying to laminate Teacher Hamura's pictures.

Mayu!

I asked my friends in the Basket Ball Club, Saeki-senpai.

I heard Tateno is giving you a hard time.

She has done nothing wrong.

Hey, I am not asking you. Shall I talk to them.

Why are you hesitating? You should ask her.

Wait up... Mayu!

That attitude was bad... especially to Saeki-senpai.

Are you aware... I have lost my face.

No time to argue. You must bring lunch to Teacher Fujimura.

Yes, but you must...

Okay, I should settle with a delivery food.

What are you doing?

Nothing in particular.

You got to be hurry.

Yeah... it looks like a bargain sale area...

How many?

How many do you want?

Don't worry.

I will get it for you.

I got you a Yakisoba Bread. It was so easy to buy this time.

How much do I owe you?

My treat!

No way... how much?

450 JPY (about 5.62 USD in 2011).

What a dirty coin.

But mint in the year I was born. Showa 50-nen (50+25=75... 1975)

50-nen...

What's the matter?

What... you know... 50-nen generation... Thanks, anyway!

Anything you want?

You don't eat lunch?

Sorry, yours inside too.

There are only three inside.

I could not buy mine.

Is it enough?

Money...

My treat this time.

Can I eat together with you?

No, you can not.

Yes?

See, I had good reasons...

Stop it!

Stop it! It's natural perm!

Give up.

Come tomorrow with straight hair.

Teacher Sano does not complain.

Out of my way! Cold...

For you.

Thanks.

Scary!

I have too many to get rid of...

Don't scare me.

That Saturday night...

Yes.

I saw her.

You mean Chiaki-san.

She was in a car.

Really?

That is all.

How come you liked her?

Why... why? I... I think she is cheerful.

She has something I don't have.

Then you are not cheerful?

I am not sure... but maybe not so cheerful.

She is a nursery school teacher.

She likes children, though she a daughter of my University Professor, she does not act like that.

I think she is more than I can deserve.

I must ask you not to come to my apartment.

Someone saw you last time.

You already know that one student of 2-D shall be expelled.

We have done nothing wrong... but... A rumor is harmful for you.

I will be in trouble too.

I am a teacher right now but I will be married in spring... and go back to University.

So during that time, I don't want bad rumors.

I don't like myself saying such things though.

What?

Wha-... what?!

Commemoration Photo Shooting! I am gonna make it this large!

Hold on.

That is bad!

What kind of person is going to marry you?

Hey, timely question.

Trouble! Not fair to me.

Is she pretty?

Mmm... so-so.

He said so-so. I'm the one who should be choking.

I like your attitude.

Shinjou speaking.

How is my father at school?

What do you mean?

Is he popular among students?

Of course. I think he is #1. You know how cheerful he is.

I am glad.

Stop it!

What are you saying? I can raise Takahiro by myself.

Don't tell me that you are the mother.

Court? Lawyer? What are you saying? You do whatever you have to do.

What the hell!

We want you to be a star in this Adult Video.

I will leave my business card here.

The Emperor Penguins breed on the Antarctic sea-ice in winter.

The reason why they flock together and not anyone of them is diving into the water is

when they cannot determine if a walrus is under the water or not.

But later some start pushing others. Then they know if the walrus is under the water or not.

Of course the one who went into the water is eaten by the walrus.

This kind of cowardly act is everywhere in wild life.

This is the definition of what Dr. Richard Dawkins tells us as "Selfish Gene".

If we paraphrase this with honey bees...

Takao-san.

Yes.

I am sorry. I got carried away.

Interesting... but...

I forgot about it...

This is an engagement ring. Not an expensive one... but...

Wow. Pretty.

Do you remember a student at my apartment?

Yes.

She said she had seen you on Saturday night.

What?

I see.

Is there a taxi nearby?

How's your life at school?

I am getting used to teaching.

What about the students?

Kind of difficult to understand what they think.

You don't say... you are going to be an expert on Biology.

Don't tease me.

You are early today.

Why are you staring at me?!

It is natural for parents to worry about their children.

I got worried since you come home late nowadays.

Don't enter my room.

Understood. I won't do it again.

Leave the room. I must change.

Yeah.

I am sorry.

Good morning.

HELP (tasukete)

Just a joke, maybe.

I hope so... but.

Help? But there is no name.

Maybe a delicate matter.

I admire you for being so worried about this.

I can not ignore this.

I find this message every morning.

You see, you have no class in charge. It might be a new form of love letter.

Don't be so serious at this moment.

Teacher Shinjou have you got a call from your ex-wife?

Takahiro is my child.

Perhaps you have heard... I am in charge of the Basket Ball Club.

My name is Hamura. I am not good at physical activities.

I am Saeki, Captain of the team.

I see.

Be good.

Thank you for being an adviser in charge.

Can we resume practice?

Sure, of course.

Teacher!

Why are you here?

Why?

I am wondering.

Take care of this ball.

Please.

I should join the Tennis Club. I have nothing to do after school.

Absolutely lonely.

Done!

Good. Better than good.

Excuse me.

I wonder where Teacher Fujimura is?

Maybe at the Tennis court.

No, he is not there.

Possibly at the Language Laboratory.

I see, thank you very much.

I am okay.

Really.

You come to our Club just for that new teacher?

Aizawa of 2-B.

Yes.

I came to see you with lunch last time.

Come in.

You study hard.

Yes.

I am nervous.

Why?

I have something for you.

Listen to this.

Teacher!

Okay?

Yes, but...

You like me, don't you?

I am not...

If you scream, people will come.

You will be expelled if seen.

No, stop!

Why?!

Nooo!!!

You were not with her?

There is no call from her home?

Maybe she played too long at night?

No way! But her mother runs a snack bar.

Perfect environment for a juvenile delinquent.

Don't be joking! I can't have a juvenile delinquent from our class.

Can I skip practice?

What?

I must see my friend who was absent today.

Sure, of course.

You feel lonely if I am not around.

There is no such a...

You will feel lonely... definitely.

Lonely?

What?

Yes, Ninomiya Mayu is in my class.

Anything I should know?

Nothing in particular.

Are both of her parents alive?

If my memory is correct, her mother passed away two years ago.

I see.

But her father... do you know Ninomiya Kosuke?

No.

He is a sculptor.

He was a very popular avant-garde sculptor when he was young.

Teacher Hamura?

Yes.

I advised you at the beginning.

What?

You must not get involved with students.

You misunderstood me, that's not it.

No problems whatsoever between teachers.

What?

Marriage.

Which one suits better for Takao?

Our Club has a tradition. As a big game is drawing near even though you are a temp adviser,

but you know nothing about the rules. We can not understand why you are here.

So what do you want me to do?

Find some other teacher and you quit.

I see, I don't think anyone else is available.

Then, all of us will talk to the Vice School Master.

That's a problem.

You can not stand the idea that you have no ability?

Then, at least prove yourself that you have physical ability.

How?

Well...

100 push-ups?

I heard you met me on Saturday night.

Around where? Ekimae Road?

Aluminai Meeting on that day I was taking a friend of mine...

A friend?

I was right. I thought you misunderstood it.

Our wedding is so close, I was worried about your misunderstanding.

So I wanted to talk to you. It's only a drive home...

I saw you two coming out from the love hotel.

25, 26, 27, 28...

Can I smoke here? I can not smoke at the Nursery School.

I can't smoke at school.

Thanks.

And so? You talked to Takao about it?

Good. We can be friends then.

Takao...

he is not a bad guy, honestly speaking, he is boring.

39, 40,

He only talks about what Emperor Penguins had done...

Gene had given what, that kind of talk is boring.

And his sex is miserably bad.

44, 45

And my father forced me to settle down with him.

He is boring, but a perfect husband.

Yes I realized it, exactly what my father my father said.

You understand me, right?

Come to think of it, I don't have to tell you about these things.

Because no matter what, he loves me anyway.

No matter what you may say to him, I don't think he believes you.

Which one of us do you think is trustworthy? You or me?

I am sorry I took up your time.

Good-bye.

Are you still alive?

You witnessed?

63 times.

Not bad as a Biology Teacher.

What am I doing?

Yes, Hamura speaking.

Hello?

Hello...

Hello.

It's me.

I am glad, I thought it was a prank call.

I called you many times.

What do you want?

Nothing.

I can not even lift up a receiver. My arm soars.

Hello.

At school, I had to do push-ups.

There is something I must apologize to you.

What?

It is true that your mother passed away.

I thought you were joking. I am sorry.

I am sorry. You don't need sympathy either.

No, I like your sympathy.

The line will be cut off soon.

I put in 10 JPY.

Then, we have three more minutes.

Yes.

But what should we talk about?

I want to...

What?

I want to listen to your Penguin story.

Sure.

Yes.

It is about Emperor Penguins in the South Pole.

Very often you watch them on TV, lots of Emperor Penguins flock together

they push each other on the rocks, underneath is ice cold water...

At that time, I felt I had so many things I must lose.

I could not notice her voice was trembling.
