Bara no nai hanaya (2008) s01e02 Episode Script
Episode 2
Year 2 Class 3. Shiomi. Shizuku.
Someone I respect.
The person I respect is Puppet Muppet and Daddy.
Puppet Muppet never shows his face.
Everyone is working hard because they want to stand out
among others, but he doesn't, and I think it's amazing.
Daddy is also like this.
Daddy's turn for trash duty was decided at the
town council meeting and before he knew it,
he had become the permanent person-in-charge.
When they are fund-raising or holding the festival celebrations,
Daddy becomes the person-in-charge
for all the bothersome matters.
Seeing all these, I just feel that my
Daddy is always on the losing end.
I feel very angry about this.
But Daddy would say, "I'm okay."
"I'm okay." It's his pet phrase.
I think my daddy is a good-natured person.
For example, during sports meets,
when nobody wants to end up in the last place,
I think my daddy would fall over deliberately.
When there isn't enough food,
I think my daddy would say, "I'm okay."
I think my daddy might be a really great person.
When nobody wants to lose and everyone wants to stand out,
my daddy still says, "I'm okay," and that made me think
that my daddy might be an admirable person.
But sometimes I'll get worried.
I'll get worried about whether my daddy is really happy.
The moment when I feel happy.
I read Shizuku-chan's essay and
I started to wonder when do you really feel happy.
I've been feeling happy since just now.
What? Like when you're with me?
That's so old.
No, no.
No?
What do you think the neighbors call me?
What?
They call you Florist-san?
That makes you happy?
For someone like me to be called Florist-san
Hmm Florist-san
Somehow it makes me feel ticklish.
It's just something very simple.
Happiness
Let's put up the curtains for your room.
Thank you,
Florist-san.
Iya
Florist-san!
That's enough.
Florist-san!
Florist-san!
The kids are looking.
Answer me, Florist-san!
Florist-san!
Florist-san!
Yes.
So cute.
What is this
Bara no nai Hanaya
Episode 2
Aniki, can I say something?
Sure.
About Mio
What's up with Mio-chan?
You were with her this afternoon too, right?
Yeah.
A burglar broke into her house,
so I helped her to get curtains and other things.
What about that?
What about that?
I think it's okay that you're a nice person
but I really don't know if that's good.
but I really don't know if that's good.
Why?
Won't you be giving her the wrong idea?
She might think "He might be interested in me."
So you're asking him not to be nice?
That's not what I'm saying.
Just giving up the seat on the bus or
something along that line is fine.
But,
kindness beyond what is necessary might
end up hurting the other party instead.
I don't really understand.
If she starts to develop feelings for Aniki,
even though you are a komochi shishamo,
you're still a single man.
(Note: Shishamo is the name of a fish Naoya is holding
and komochi refers to someone with a child.)
It's nothing strange if you start to dream
about remarrying or something like that.
Who's the shishamo?
Wait, wait, wait
I don't have dreams about that.
Oh, really?
Maybe she had already given up on love or marriage.
But you gave her dreams that she
wouldn't have seen otherwise.
If you're thinking "I'm just being a
nice guy and treating her nicely,"
then she's too pitiful.
There might be some truth in what Naoya is saying
Well, that's because I'm an ex-host.
A woman's heart is like that.
Don't tell me that Aniki is also feeling the same way?
Are you a father wolf under the sheep skin?
Shito shito picchan shito pichan
(Note: Onomatopoeia.)
Is this what they call hypocrisy?
No matter how good the person feels about
doing it, what would the other party think?
I'm not doing this to feel good
It's fine if Aniki. can really accept her.
If you say that you see her as your
potential partner for remarriage.
I don't see her in that way.
So it's just sympathy, right?
That
Second helping, please.
Thanks, Daddy.
Yeah.
Erm
Daddy?
Are you okay?
Making such one-sided assumptions!
You've got to be kidding!
Let me set this straight.
I'm not interested in you at all!
I'm sorry
I won't get any wrong ideas.
I don't like you best or anything!
Yes
Don't flatter yourself!
I'm sorry
Damn! Who do you think I am?
I'm sorry
Maybe I was the one who was flattering myself.
What?
When I was young, my daddy often told me I was cute.
I'm still stuck to that image of myself.
You're still cu-cute.
You're stuttering!
Don't tell such an obvious lie.
I'm sorry
It's easy to steal and seduce the heart of a florist
who has a child and neither money nor status.
Seduction
What?
I'm going to change into my pajamas so look away.
Okay.
It's an easy thing for a beautiful young woman.
Win the heart of that man.
No, win his everything. Then destroy him!
I'm done.
Okay.
Something's wrong with me.
It's all my fault.
It's not that.
I'm sorry.
Really. It's not that.
I'll make some tea.
Okay.
Hey!
Good morning.
I heard this from Teru.
Teru, the property agent.
Yes?
He said Hishida-san's house on the hill
has been put up for sale.
Really?
I'm serious..
It seems they already found someone
who's interested in buying it.
Why?
Well, I'm sure there were many reasons.
She said she has two sons,
so maybe it's business failure or some debts.
Well, isn't it always one or the other?
I had no idea
And that's why,
it's just something small but I was thinking;
how about a farewell party at my shop?
It's not like we don't know each other.
Huh?
She took care of Shizuku for you too.
Yes, of course.
Well, I was thinking it'll be too sad
if only a few of us are there.
So, you know,
invite that person, invite that person to come.
That person?
Shizuku's homeroom teacher.
Oh, Ono-sensei.
Yes, yes! Ono-sensei!
That's impossible.
Well, just try to invite her!
But I don't have a reason to do that
Just make up some reason yourself!
Ah, who is it? Who is your guarantor?
These two different matters.
No they're not. They're totally related!
I'll try to invite her.
Then while you're at it,
ask her about the type she likes if you can.
That's if I get to ask her that.
Ask her!
Just take it.
Okay? You're so poor and free all the time, just take it!
Daddy said I could choose ballet or piano but
I told him that going to swimming school is good enough.
It's government funded so it's cheap.
Good girl! You're really thoughtful.
No, no.
I'm in charge of the household expenses
so there's no point in wasting money.
I see.
Physical fitness is important!
Hmm?
I'm going to take over the flower shop in the future.
Oh!
Well, even though I can't swim, I'm getting in!
Go ahead!
I'll be back.
My sons yes, both of them.
They asked me if I would like to live with them.
But I didn't want to.
I don't want my daughter-in-law to take care of me, so
it's better for me to just stay in a nursing
home and have things my way.
I'm still healthy.
Well, it's sooner or later anyway.
It feels more secure to have a full nursing care.
Everyone there is nearly the same age as me.
Maybe I'll even fall in love.
Ah,
I told the property agent that the
buyer has to satisfy one condition.
I think Eiji-san would know what it is.
Someone who would take good care of the flowers.
Yes. That's right!
Let me make some tea.
Is she okay? Is she okay?
Shizuku-chan?
Shizuku-chan?
Yes!
Thank you.
Let's take her to the sick bay.
I'll leave her to you.
Indeed! You're really skillful!
Just as expected of a practicing nurse.
But you really got me worried.
Please be careful.
It's cold! My underwear is all wet.
Hey!
The other day was a total disaster, huh?
What are you doing here alone?
Ah I see, you're a transfer student so
you still haven't made any friends.
Why don't you come over and play at my house?
It's a small house though.
You don't have to scold her so harshly, right?
It's because she keeps on inserting
the intravenous drip wrongly.
Well, well.
It's not as if we've received a complaint from the patient.
I don't think that's the point?
She's cheerful and popular.
You should also learn something from her, shouldn't you?
I'm not a hostess.
I don't think there is a need to act coquettishly.
What did you just say?
Shirato-san, internal call, line three.
Excuse me.
Yes?
You seem to be in a bad mood.
This is my usual expression.
He
He's from the detective agency that
helped me trace their flower shop.
I hired him to check on the background of the
florist. He is a very outstanding detective.
I've let him stay at that guy's place as a spy.
I just hoped that you could have told me right from the start.
I wonder how that would be.
He was actually coordinating with your actions
in the dark. It had some effects too.
According to his report,
you almost made a grave mistake at the swimming pool.
Well, that's too bad.
From now on, please cooperate with him.
I'm very sorry but
I don't think I can do it.
I have to deceive people and
I even have to seduce them.
Relax a little more.
Just take it as a game and enjoy it.
Game?
I'm sorry but before I got you to do this,
I had already checked on your background.
You work seriously,
you have never been late or been absent from work.
But for some reason, you don't have any colleagues
you're close to and the head nurse doesn't like you.
Because I'm bad at socializing and I'm not clever.
That's why it is a mistake to get me to do such a thing.
I think it's the other way around instead.
This personality puts you on the losing end.
Do you like yourself being like this?
I do not understand at all what you are talking about.
One would always wish to experience a different self.
Take for example a serious and stubborn
person like you becomes a total opposite.
Laughing carefreely, talking loudly, behaving wilfully.
But in real life it's hard for you to do that.
People won't change easily.
Then you can just pretend she's another person.
Isn't it good to just change your thinking and enjoy it?
You have to make a choice.
I hate my father.
So
are you going to watch him die?
But is it alright for an outsider like me
to turn up during such an occasion?
Yes.
As long as you're willing to come,
the flowers will bloom and the air won't be so dank, right?
What kind of person is she?
She taught me a lot about owers.
About flowers?
I opened a flower shop but I knew nothing about flowers.
Like how to keep the flowers fresh,
how to decorate them and how to distinguish
the good ones from the bad ones.
She really taught me a lot of things.
I see.
That's right. I saw the new transfer
student at the riverbank earlier.
Shogo?
Can you please pay more attention to him?
That even if you do not say that he is a new
transfer student and before he joins the rest
I do not mean that type of attention.
What?
I'm sorry for speaking like this.
It's nothing.
There's one more thing
Yes?
Teacher, what kind of man do you like?
What?
No, well
You're very straightforward.
No, that
My first impression of you was that
you were a little of a bad man.
But women are so weird,
they are always unable to resist men
who seem to have a dark past.
I wonder why, maybe it is maternal instinct?
I don't know.
But since I've fallen in love with you, there's nothing I can do.
Even if you're a bad man
it won't matter.
The more I'm told that by the people around me, the more
I wanted to protect you. I want to be by your side.
I will protect you.
Protect you.
You should sleep more.
It's alright, I'm fine.
Daddy will be worried so don't tell him, alright?
Okay!
And also, thank you for your help.
I should be the one saying "thank you."
Eh?
No matter what, I received your first kiss.
I'll kill you.
I'm joking! Joking!
It was the female instructor!
Ouch!
I'll brush my teeth, just in case.
Somehow, it's very hurtful.
You're irritating!
No, it's true. You look exactly like my first girlfriend!
Here you go again, you and your jokes!
It's true!
My heart is aching and my blood pressure's rising!
You're saying such things again.
Oh , Mio!
Excuse me then.
You've worked hard.
Your father is an interesting person.
Why must you tell her that I am your daughter?
Why? Can't I say it?
It will interfere with my work.
Don't be so fierce!
If I didn't faint, I wouldn't have used your name.
It was you who wanted to go out.
Saying these now will only trouble others.
I know!
I don't want to become your burden either.
Anyway, there's nothing serious, I'll leave
straightaway after a few days of rest.
Heard that your mother remarried?
How's that man?
He's a good man,
totally different from you.
I see.
I'll go change the water.
I hate him,
I really hate him
I'm really speechless.
She definitely won't go.
But
Shirato-san, are you free tomorrow?
We're having a Goukon and we're one person short.
(Note: Goukon refers to group date.)
It's such a rare chance, let's go together!
I
They wanted us to bring a cute girl.
That's right! It's pretty good to
join in the crazy fun sometimes!
That's right! Crazily!
What kind of a son is that, Chiroru?
He actually took the house that his mother was staying in.
You can't say that.
Why? Because she seems very pitiful.
There's no other choice. Maybe
there were some other reasons?
But
And, if you were to criticize her son,
you're indirectly saying that there are problems
with Hishida-san's way of teaching.
I see.
That means, if I do something bad, people
will say bad things about Daddy.
I'm fine with what people say about me.
Oh, say that again.
Which line?
The line, "I'm"
I'm fine with it.
Yes, that is'the one.
What's so weird about it?
Nothing.
Oh,
Oh, did you contact Mio-chan after that?
No.
After she heard what we said about her,
it's hard for me to look her up.
It's awkward?
Yes.
But I called and left her a message about grandma.
Since Ono-sensei is coming, I thought
of inviting Mio-chan as well.
Sympathy
What?
That's not what it is.
Don't you think
her smile is like a flower?
Flower?
Yes.
My mommy was like that too?
Yes, your mommy too.
Just as I thought.
I
like those who smile like a flower.
Is that so?
Smiles like a blossoming flower.
This is Aniki's taste right? Fairytale, fairytale
Who exactly are you?
I was a detective,
a host and I worked under a florist before.
But, in actual fact, I am
Don't joke around.
I actually want to be an author.
That's why I have to understand the
complicated feelings of humans.
Like jealousy and hatred.
That is a lie too, right?
Well, who cares about me, right?
Why does the director hate him so much?
He refuses to tell me too.
But one can imagine what it is right?
After that time, you have not contacted him, right?
Are you playing hard to get?
That's not what it is.
It's better to go before it's exposed.
Although it's not a difficult thing, you can't have sex so easily.
In host terms, it's called the pillow.
Sometimes customers might lose interest all of a sudden.
Stop joking around. Why must I do those things?
We are partners.
Please don't get so testy, alright?
Testy?
I told Aniki to not let his sympathy show.
One's psychology is so interesting.
Once they hear the word "sympathy," they'll
rebut and say, "That's not sympathy!"
If it's not sympathy, then what is it? He'll definitely
sink into a series of self-questioning.
So he will think about you
without noticing it.
You spoke to him about that on purpose?
I'll give you a killer pass.
In the future too.
I'll miss it. I've already decided to keep my hands off this.
Here you go again.
I don't know what horrible things
he has done to Director before.
But he and I are just strangers.
I will have a sense of crime if I lie and deceive others.
I heard that it's very difficult -
your father's operation.
Why do you
Director is the specialist in brain surgery.
That is why your father can stay in a single room.
Which do you think
will make you feel more guilty if he's thrown out?
I'm going out. You better leave too.
Wait
Don't forget this.
One more thing,
why must I act blind?
I can't answer that yet.
Eiji! Eiji!
Ono-sensei will really come, right?
She'll probably come.
Probably?
She'll come.
Then have you asked that question?
I've asked her what type of man she likes.
It was very sudden.
What did she say?
Guys with shadows.
(Note: 'Kage' lliterally means shadow, figuratively means 'with a dark past'.)
If the weather's good, everyone will have shadows.
That's not what she meant.
I know it too,
no matter what, it feels like she's talking about
me. It makes me feel a little happy.
Master, you have a dark past?
If I don't, who does
Everyone does if the weather is good.
That's not funny, you kid.
I'm sorry.
Daddy, sensei. is here.
Really?
She's really here.
I said she'd come, right?
You said she probably. Probably means
she'd probably not come too!
I'll go get Hishida-san.
Wait, Eiji.
Don't leave me alone. Wait,
don't leave me alone.
Master.
Aren't I here?
Shizuku?
Here, take this!
Hello!
Welcome.
Shizuku-chan, how are you?
Thanks to you, right?
(Note: 'Kage' here is a pun.)
Thankfully and shadows, right?
(Note: Pun again for the word 'kage.')
Shadow?
Hello? I'm Eiji.
What are you doing? Hurry, come!
I might have gone a different way?
Is Hishida-san there already?
She's not here.
I've pressed the bell a couple of times already.
Hello? Hello?
Hey Hello? Hello?
You're good.
Can you let me see it again?
Seems like I've been disliked
"Be nicer to me."
I don't intend to say that
because I feel very blissful now.
But in order for you to feel happiness,
I think you need to treat someone kindly.
It's fine even if you're not doing it from the heart at first.
But one day you will become a truly gentle person.
In that way, you will feel blissful too.
Because being gentle to someone makes you feel very good.
What am I saying!
I'm preaching again.
I'm sorry.
I made a copy of it secretly
although you didn't ask me to.
But I was thinking you might like it.
Please add more money
because there are a lot more. I will send them over slowly.
You,
excuse me but
Let you be alone, right?
I've got it..
Just joking!
Actually I
I wish you longevity.
You see me as an outsider, don't you?
You found me.
Yes, I've found you.
Are you blaming me?
No.
Look!
I somehow feel that;
won't having a farewell party make it even sadder?
That's true.
Actually,
although it's a farewell,
I'm just going to Atami.
Everyone can still come over
and enjoy the hot springs when it's New Year.
Yes.
Of course my children said they want to send me there by car.
But if they do,
I'll keep having the feeling like I'm going to be hospitalized.
Yes, I understand that.
And I'm still very healthy.
Yes.
Daddy!
Oh,
Shizuku-chan is here to bid farewell to me too.
Farewell?
You're wrong.
Do you want to live with us?
Although it's very small, you and Shizuku can share a room.
What are you talking about?
Then where will you sleep?
I can sleep in the storage room as long as I clear it up a little.
Grandma,
let's sleep together with Chiroru..
I won't snore.
Just that she grinds her teeth occasionally.
Daddy's lying, I won't do that.
I'm happy.
I'm happy.
Eiji-san, Shizuku-chan,
I'm really thankful
for your kindness.
We're not doing this because we pity
you. Please do not be mistaken.
We just want to live with you.
Yes, that's right.
Shizuku is entering her rebellion period soon.
Having just a man to take care of
her is indeed a little inconvenient.
I'm sorry but I'll be very restless.
I also wish that you would teach me more about flowers.
Would you like to become family with us?
Family?
Even though we're not blood related,
we can still become a family by staying together.
Couples are not related by blood either,
but they can still become a family.
Stop it already.
I remember that you've said it to me before.
You'll feel uncomfortable without flowers surrounding you.
Have I said something like that before?
You've said it before. Have you forgotten it?
How rude. How could I have possibly forgotten about it?
Are there flower beds in the old folks' home?
I only went to see it once.
I'm not very sure.
If you come to my house, you'll feel
like you're in a flower garden.
Are you stupid? Those flowers are for sale, aren't they?
There will be leftovers too.
There will be new flowers coming in the next day.
Even though I might not look like one,
I'm a bad cook
I know, I know, but
we have a bad sense of taste.
We're tone deaf too.
Are you getting on the bus?
Eh I was
a little tired. I just sat here to rest.
Sorry!
I'm really sorry.
What a wonderful pair of father and daughter.
Yes.
Who do you think is the wonderful one?
The father? Or the child?
Both of them are. Is there a problem?
Ah, I was just thinking,
if you had to pick one, who would it be?
Cheers!
No way, no way, you can't say that.
This guy can't shut up once he starts.
Okay, it's my turn next.
Hey, don't go! Let's play all night!
I will go back first.
It was I who asked them to bring those cute girls here.
I knew you were my type once I saw you.
I'm going home.
What are you afraid of.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Then that solves the problem.
Let's find a place where we can talk alone.
Please let go of me.
Isn't it stressful being a nurse? Come destress with me!
I'm not a loose woman.
What? How disgusting.
Stop pretending you're innocent!
Hey!
You're such a boring woman.
You're mean, just like what they said!
Everyone said so when you were in the toilet.
Always frowning and having no friends.
Such a woman like you, do you float in the air
when someone just flatters you by saying
you're cute or that they like you?
Go to hell.
Huh?
Go to hell!
Ouch!
What are you?!
Scram!
Hey, hey, Eiji!
How did you handle her?
Are you talking about Hishida-san?
She's bathing with Shizuku now.
Ah, is that so.
I heard both of them singing.
That's good.
Yes.
When did this begin?
Hm?
When did you decide?
Was it after hearing what I said?
No, I didn't plan to do this at all at that time.
I didn't even think of it when I went to pick her up.
Is that so?
How should I put it? I decided in an instant.
In an instant?
Not bad. To save someone in an instant.
That's exaggerating.
This is not exaggeration.
For example, the people who save those who fall onto
railway tracks decide to do it in an instant, don't they?
That
You could easily die
if you're not careful.
Eiji.
Yes?
I'm like that too.
Come to think of it,
I fell for Ono-sensei in an instant.
I can't swim.
It's possibly fatal to drown in love.
Why don't you
take swimming lessons with Shizuku?
Maybe I should.
Thank you for the food.
Good night.
Good night.
Hello?
Hello? Florist-san?
Cute~ cute~ Florist-san?
That's suppposed to be the fishmonger-san.
(Note: From a Japanese children's song.)
Are you at the apartment now?
No, I'm in Shinjuku.
Shinjuku?
It seems like I missed the last train.
So I'm just walking around.
Walking around? Where are you?
He's getting closer!
I might get attacked
because I'm too cute!
Because I'm too cute.
It's coming!
Help!
You're drunk, aren't you?
Can't I?
I'm already an adult yet I still can't drink?
No, it's not that you can't but you
got to be with someone, right?
I was still together with some strange guy just now.
I told him to go to hell and I threw a shoe at him.
Just joking.
Shizuku-chan left me a message again.
Shizuku was worried because she couldn't contact you at all.
I heard you took that Hishida-san in.
What do you mean by "took in"? She's not a baggage.
She is.
Humans are baggage.
I lef the car in the car park, let's go?
Humans always become the baggage of others.
Okay, I got it.
Since you put it that way
That's right,
everyone's the same. There is no exception at all.
Haven't I become your baggage now?
Yeah
What
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, my words prick.
I'm just like a rose
with thorns all over me.
Yes.
Sorry but I'm not that cheap.
Yes.
I'm not cheap.
I didn't say I was cold.
I'm packing you up.
Packing?
You are a baggage,
aren't you?
Yes.
Even though you're a baggage, you're
different from a normal baggage.
Because you give people no choice but to cherish you.
Because you're so fragile.
Right?
Florist-san.
Yes?
If you put it this way,
Yes?
then I will pretend to cry to hide my smile.
Yes.
Florist-san.
Yes?
Florist-san.
Yes.
Florist-san.
Answer me! Florist-san.
Florist-san?
Yes.
Someone I respect.
The person I respect is Puppet Muppet and Daddy.
Puppet Muppet never shows his face.
Everyone is working hard because they want to stand out
among others, but he doesn't, and I think it's amazing.
Daddy is also like this.
Daddy's turn for trash duty was decided at the
town council meeting and before he knew it,
he had become the permanent person-in-charge.
When they are fund-raising or holding the festival celebrations,
Daddy becomes the person-in-charge
for all the bothersome matters.
Seeing all these, I just feel that my
Daddy is always on the losing end.
I feel very angry about this.
But Daddy would say, "I'm okay."
"I'm okay." It's his pet phrase.
I think my daddy is a good-natured person.
For example, during sports meets,
when nobody wants to end up in the last place,
I think my daddy would fall over deliberately.
When there isn't enough food,
I think my daddy would say, "I'm okay."
I think my daddy might be a really great person.
When nobody wants to lose and everyone wants to stand out,
my daddy still says, "I'm okay," and that made me think
that my daddy might be an admirable person.
But sometimes I'll get worried.
I'll get worried about whether my daddy is really happy.
The moment when I feel happy.
I read Shizuku-chan's essay and
I started to wonder when do you really feel happy.
I've been feeling happy since just now.
What? Like when you're with me?
That's so old.
No, no.
No?
What do you think the neighbors call me?
What?
They call you Florist-san?
That makes you happy?
For someone like me to be called Florist-san
Hmm Florist-san
Somehow it makes me feel ticklish.
It's just something very simple.
Happiness
Let's put up the curtains for your room.
Thank you,
Florist-san.
Iya
Florist-san!
That's enough.
Florist-san!
Florist-san!
The kids are looking.
Answer me, Florist-san!
Florist-san!
Florist-san!
Yes.
So cute.
What is this
Bara no nai Hanaya
Episode 2
Aniki, can I say something?
Sure.
About Mio
What's up with Mio-chan?
You were with her this afternoon too, right?
Yeah.
A burglar broke into her house,
so I helped her to get curtains and other things.
What about that?
What about that?
I think it's okay that you're a nice person
but I really don't know if that's good.
but I really don't know if that's good.
Why?
Won't you be giving her the wrong idea?
She might think "He might be interested in me."
So you're asking him not to be nice?
That's not what I'm saying.
Just giving up the seat on the bus or
something along that line is fine.
But,
kindness beyond what is necessary might
end up hurting the other party instead.
I don't really understand.
If she starts to develop feelings for Aniki,
even though you are a komochi shishamo,
you're still a single man.
(Note: Shishamo is the name of a fish Naoya is holding
and komochi refers to someone with a child.)
It's nothing strange if you start to dream
about remarrying or something like that.
Who's the shishamo?
Wait, wait, wait
I don't have dreams about that.
Oh, really?
Maybe she had already given up on love or marriage.
But you gave her dreams that she
wouldn't have seen otherwise.
If you're thinking "I'm just being a
nice guy and treating her nicely,"
then she's too pitiful.
There might be some truth in what Naoya is saying
Well, that's because I'm an ex-host.
A woman's heart is like that.
Don't tell me that Aniki is also feeling the same way?
Are you a father wolf under the sheep skin?
Shito shito picchan shito pichan
(Note: Onomatopoeia.)
Is this what they call hypocrisy?
No matter how good the person feels about
doing it, what would the other party think?
I'm not doing this to feel good
It's fine if Aniki. can really accept her.
If you say that you see her as your
potential partner for remarriage.
I don't see her in that way.
So it's just sympathy, right?
That
Second helping, please.
Thanks, Daddy.
Yeah.
Erm
Daddy?
Are you okay?
Making such one-sided assumptions!
You've got to be kidding!
Let me set this straight.
I'm not interested in you at all!
I'm sorry
I won't get any wrong ideas.
I don't like you best or anything!
Yes
Don't flatter yourself!
I'm sorry
Damn! Who do you think I am?
I'm sorry
Maybe I was the one who was flattering myself.
What?
When I was young, my daddy often told me I was cute.
I'm still stuck to that image of myself.
You're still cu-cute.
You're stuttering!
Don't tell such an obvious lie.
I'm sorry
It's easy to steal and seduce the heart of a florist
who has a child and neither money nor status.
Seduction
What?
I'm going to change into my pajamas so look away.
Okay.
It's an easy thing for a beautiful young woman.
Win the heart of that man.
No, win his everything. Then destroy him!
I'm done.
Okay.
Something's wrong with me.
It's all my fault.
It's not that.
I'm sorry.
Really. It's not that.
I'll make some tea.
Okay.
Hey!
Good morning.
I heard this from Teru.
Teru, the property agent.
Yes?
He said Hishida-san's house on the hill
has been put up for sale.
Really?
I'm serious..
It seems they already found someone
who's interested in buying it.
Why?
Well, I'm sure there were many reasons.
She said she has two sons,
so maybe it's business failure or some debts.
Well, isn't it always one or the other?
I had no idea
And that's why,
it's just something small but I was thinking;
how about a farewell party at my shop?
It's not like we don't know each other.
Huh?
She took care of Shizuku for you too.
Yes, of course.
Well, I was thinking it'll be too sad
if only a few of us are there.
So, you know,
invite that person, invite that person to come.
That person?
Shizuku's homeroom teacher.
Oh, Ono-sensei.
Yes, yes! Ono-sensei!
That's impossible.
Well, just try to invite her!
But I don't have a reason to do that
Just make up some reason yourself!
Ah, who is it? Who is your guarantor?
These two different matters.
No they're not. They're totally related!
I'll try to invite her.
Then while you're at it,
ask her about the type she likes if you can.
That's if I get to ask her that.
Ask her!
Just take it.
Okay? You're so poor and free all the time, just take it!
Daddy said I could choose ballet or piano but
I told him that going to swimming school is good enough.
It's government funded so it's cheap.
Good girl! You're really thoughtful.
No, no.
I'm in charge of the household expenses
so there's no point in wasting money.
I see.
Physical fitness is important!
Hmm?
I'm going to take over the flower shop in the future.
Oh!
Well, even though I can't swim, I'm getting in!
Go ahead!
I'll be back.
My sons yes, both of them.
They asked me if I would like to live with them.
But I didn't want to.
I don't want my daughter-in-law to take care of me, so
it's better for me to just stay in a nursing
home and have things my way.
I'm still healthy.
Well, it's sooner or later anyway.
It feels more secure to have a full nursing care.
Everyone there is nearly the same age as me.
Maybe I'll even fall in love.
Ah,
I told the property agent that the
buyer has to satisfy one condition.
I think Eiji-san would know what it is.
Someone who would take good care of the flowers.
Yes. That's right!
Let me make some tea.
Is she okay? Is she okay?
Shizuku-chan?
Shizuku-chan?
Yes!
Thank you.
Let's take her to the sick bay.
I'll leave her to you.
Indeed! You're really skillful!
Just as expected of a practicing nurse.
But you really got me worried.
Please be careful.
It's cold! My underwear is all wet.
Hey!
The other day was a total disaster, huh?
What are you doing here alone?
Ah I see, you're a transfer student so
you still haven't made any friends.
Why don't you come over and play at my house?
It's a small house though.
You don't have to scold her so harshly, right?
It's because she keeps on inserting
the intravenous drip wrongly.
Well, well.
It's not as if we've received a complaint from the patient.
I don't think that's the point?
She's cheerful and popular.
You should also learn something from her, shouldn't you?
I'm not a hostess.
I don't think there is a need to act coquettishly.
What did you just say?
Shirato-san, internal call, line three.
Excuse me.
Yes?
You seem to be in a bad mood.
This is my usual expression.
He
He's from the detective agency that
helped me trace their flower shop.
I hired him to check on the background of the
florist. He is a very outstanding detective.
I've let him stay at that guy's place as a spy.
I just hoped that you could have told me right from the start.
I wonder how that would be.
He was actually coordinating with your actions
in the dark. It had some effects too.
According to his report,
you almost made a grave mistake at the swimming pool.
Well, that's too bad.
From now on, please cooperate with him.
I'm very sorry but
I don't think I can do it.
I have to deceive people and
I even have to seduce them.
Relax a little more.
Just take it as a game and enjoy it.
Game?
I'm sorry but before I got you to do this,
I had already checked on your background.
You work seriously,
you have never been late or been absent from work.
But for some reason, you don't have any colleagues
you're close to and the head nurse doesn't like you.
Because I'm bad at socializing and I'm not clever.
That's why it is a mistake to get me to do such a thing.
I think it's the other way around instead.
This personality puts you on the losing end.
Do you like yourself being like this?
I do not understand at all what you are talking about.
One would always wish to experience a different self.
Take for example a serious and stubborn
person like you becomes a total opposite.
Laughing carefreely, talking loudly, behaving wilfully.
But in real life it's hard for you to do that.
People won't change easily.
Then you can just pretend she's another person.
Isn't it good to just change your thinking and enjoy it?
You have to make a choice.
I hate my father.
So
are you going to watch him die?
But is it alright for an outsider like me
to turn up during such an occasion?
Yes.
As long as you're willing to come,
the flowers will bloom and the air won't be so dank, right?
What kind of person is she?
She taught me a lot about owers.
About flowers?
I opened a flower shop but I knew nothing about flowers.
Like how to keep the flowers fresh,
how to decorate them and how to distinguish
the good ones from the bad ones.
She really taught me a lot of things.
I see.
That's right. I saw the new transfer
student at the riverbank earlier.
Shogo?
Can you please pay more attention to him?
That even if you do not say that he is a new
transfer student and before he joins the rest
I do not mean that type of attention.
What?
I'm sorry for speaking like this.
It's nothing.
There's one more thing
Yes?
Teacher, what kind of man do you like?
What?
No, well
You're very straightforward.
No, that
My first impression of you was that
you were a little of a bad man.
But women are so weird,
they are always unable to resist men
who seem to have a dark past.
I wonder why, maybe it is maternal instinct?
I don't know.
But since I've fallen in love with you, there's nothing I can do.
Even if you're a bad man
it won't matter.
The more I'm told that by the people around me, the more
I wanted to protect you. I want to be by your side.
I will protect you.
Protect you.
You should sleep more.
It's alright, I'm fine.
Daddy will be worried so don't tell him, alright?
Okay!
And also, thank you for your help.
I should be the one saying "thank you."
Eh?
No matter what, I received your first kiss.
I'll kill you.
I'm joking! Joking!
It was the female instructor!
Ouch!
I'll brush my teeth, just in case.
Somehow, it's very hurtful.
You're irritating!
No, it's true. You look exactly like my first girlfriend!
Here you go again, you and your jokes!
It's true!
My heart is aching and my blood pressure's rising!
You're saying such things again.
Oh , Mio!
Excuse me then.
You've worked hard.
Your father is an interesting person.
Why must you tell her that I am your daughter?
Why? Can't I say it?
It will interfere with my work.
Don't be so fierce!
If I didn't faint, I wouldn't have used your name.
It was you who wanted to go out.
Saying these now will only trouble others.
I know!
I don't want to become your burden either.
Anyway, there's nothing serious, I'll leave
straightaway after a few days of rest.
Heard that your mother remarried?
How's that man?
He's a good man,
totally different from you.
I see.
I'll go change the water.
I hate him,
I really hate him
I'm really speechless.
She definitely won't go.
But
Shirato-san, are you free tomorrow?
We're having a Goukon and we're one person short.
(Note: Goukon refers to group date.)
It's such a rare chance, let's go together!
I
They wanted us to bring a cute girl.
That's right! It's pretty good to
join in the crazy fun sometimes!
That's right! Crazily!
What kind of a son is that, Chiroru?
He actually took the house that his mother was staying in.
You can't say that.
Why? Because she seems very pitiful.
There's no other choice. Maybe
there were some other reasons?
But
And, if you were to criticize her son,
you're indirectly saying that there are problems
with Hishida-san's way of teaching.
I see.
That means, if I do something bad, people
will say bad things about Daddy.
I'm fine with what people say about me.
Oh, say that again.
Which line?
The line, "I'm"
I'm fine with it.
Yes, that is'the one.
What's so weird about it?
Nothing.
Oh,
Oh, did you contact Mio-chan after that?
No.
After she heard what we said about her,
it's hard for me to look her up.
It's awkward?
Yes.
But I called and left her a message about grandma.
Since Ono-sensei is coming, I thought
of inviting Mio-chan as well.
Sympathy
What?
That's not what it is.
Don't you think
her smile is like a flower?
Flower?
Yes.
My mommy was like that too?
Yes, your mommy too.
Just as I thought.
I
like those who smile like a flower.
Is that so?
Smiles like a blossoming flower.
This is Aniki's taste right? Fairytale, fairytale
Who exactly are you?
I was a detective,
a host and I worked under a florist before.
But, in actual fact, I am
Don't joke around.
I actually want to be an author.
That's why I have to understand the
complicated feelings of humans.
Like jealousy and hatred.
That is a lie too, right?
Well, who cares about me, right?
Why does the director hate him so much?
He refuses to tell me too.
But one can imagine what it is right?
After that time, you have not contacted him, right?
Are you playing hard to get?
That's not what it is.
It's better to go before it's exposed.
Although it's not a difficult thing, you can't have sex so easily.
In host terms, it's called the pillow.
Sometimes customers might lose interest all of a sudden.
Stop joking around. Why must I do those things?
We are partners.
Please don't get so testy, alright?
Testy?
I told Aniki to not let his sympathy show.
One's psychology is so interesting.
Once they hear the word "sympathy," they'll
rebut and say, "That's not sympathy!"
If it's not sympathy, then what is it? He'll definitely
sink into a series of self-questioning.
So he will think about you
without noticing it.
You spoke to him about that on purpose?
I'll give you a killer pass.
In the future too.
I'll miss it. I've already decided to keep my hands off this.
Here you go again.
I don't know what horrible things
he has done to Director before.
But he and I are just strangers.
I will have a sense of crime if I lie and deceive others.
I heard that it's very difficult -
your father's operation.
Why do you
Director is the specialist in brain surgery.
That is why your father can stay in a single room.
Which do you think
will make you feel more guilty if he's thrown out?
I'm going out. You better leave too.
Wait
Don't forget this.
One more thing,
why must I act blind?
I can't answer that yet.
Eiji! Eiji!
Ono-sensei will really come, right?
She'll probably come.
Probably?
She'll come.
Then have you asked that question?
I've asked her what type of man she likes.
It was very sudden.
What did she say?
Guys with shadows.
(Note: 'Kage' lliterally means shadow, figuratively means 'with a dark past'.)
If the weather's good, everyone will have shadows.
That's not what she meant.
I know it too,
no matter what, it feels like she's talking about
me. It makes me feel a little happy.
Master, you have a dark past?
If I don't, who does
Everyone does if the weather is good.
That's not funny, you kid.
I'm sorry.
Daddy, sensei. is here.
Really?
She's really here.
I said she'd come, right?
You said she probably. Probably means
she'd probably not come too!
I'll go get Hishida-san.
Wait, Eiji.
Don't leave me alone. Wait,
don't leave me alone.
Master.
Aren't I here?
Shizuku?
Here, take this!
Hello!
Welcome.
Shizuku-chan, how are you?
Thanks to you, right?
(Note: 'Kage' here is a pun.)
Thankfully and shadows, right?
(Note: Pun again for the word 'kage.')
Shadow?
Hello? I'm Eiji.
What are you doing? Hurry, come!
I might have gone a different way?
Is Hishida-san there already?
She's not here.
I've pressed the bell a couple of times already.
Hello? Hello?
Hey Hello? Hello?
You're good.
Can you let me see it again?
Seems like I've been disliked
"Be nicer to me."
I don't intend to say that
because I feel very blissful now.
But in order for you to feel happiness,
I think you need to treat someone kindly.
It's fine even if you're not doing it from the heart at first.
But one day you will become a truly gentle person.
In that way, you will feel blissful too.
Because being gentle to someone makes you feel very good.
What am I saying!
I'm preaching again.
I'm sorry.
I made a copy of it secretly
although you didn't ask me to.
But I was thinking you might like it.
Please add more money
because there are a lot more. I will send them over slowly.
You,
excuse me but
Let you be alone, right?
I've got it..
Just joking!
Actually I
I wish you longevity.
You see me as an outsider, don't you?
You found me.
Yes, I've found you.
Are you blaming me?
No.
Look!
I somehow feel that;
won't having a farewell party make it even sadder?
That's true.
Actually,
although it's a farewell,
I'm just going to Atami.
Everyone can still come over
and enjoy the hot springs when it's New Year.
Yes.
Of course my children said they want to send me there by car.
But if they do,
I'll keep having the feeling like I'm going to be hospitalized.
Yes, I understand that.
And I'm still very healthy.
Yes.
Daddy!
Oh,
Shizuku-chan is here to bid farewell to me too.
Farewell?
You're wrong.
Do you want to live with us?
Although it's very small, you and Shizuku can share a room.
What are you talking about?
Then where will you sleep?
I can sleep in the storage room as long as I clear it up a little.
Grandma,
let's sleep together with Chiroru..
I won't snore.
Just that she grinds her teeth occasionally.
Daddy's lying, I won't do that.
I'm happy.
I'm happy.
Eiji-san, Shizuku-chan,
I'm really thankful
for your kindness.
We're not doing this because we pity
you. Please do not be mistaken.
We just want to live with you.
Yes, that's right.
Shizuku is entering her rebellion period soon.
Having just a man to take care of
her is indeed a little inconvenient.
I'm sorry but I'll be very restless.
I also wish that you would teach me more about flowers.
Would you like to become family with us?
Family?
Even though we're not blood related,
we can still become a family by staying together.
Couples are not related by blood either,
but they can still become a family.
Stop it already.
I remember that you've said it to me before.
You'll feel uncomfortable without flowers surrounding you.
Have I said something like that before?
You've said it before. Have you forgotten it?
How rude. How could I have possibly forgotten about it?
Are there flower beds in the old folks' home?
I only went to see it once.
I'm not very sure.
If you come to my house, you'll feel
like you're in a flower garden.
Are you stupid? Those flowers are for sale, aren't they?
There will be leftovers too.
There will be new flowers coming in the next day.
Even though I might not look like one,
I'm a bad cook
I know, I know, but
we have a bad sense of taste.
We're tone deaf too.
Are you getting on the bus?
Eh I was
a little tired. I just sat here to rest.
Sorry!
I'm really sorry.
What a wonderful pair of father and daughter.
Yes.
Who do you think is the wonderful one?
The father? Or the child?
Both of them are. Is there a problem?
Ah, I was just thinking,
if you had to pick one, who would it be?
Cheers!
No way, no way, you can't say that.
This guy can't shut up once he starts.
Okay, it's my turn next.
Hey, don't go! Let's play all night!
I will go back first.
It was I who asked them to bring those cute girls here.
I knew you were my type once I saw you.
I'm going home.
What are you afraid of.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Then that solves the problem.
Let's find a place where we can talk alone.
Please let go of me.
Isn't it stressful being a nurse? Come destress with me!
I'm not a loose woman.
What? How disgusting.
Stop pretending you're innocent!
Hey!
You're such a boring woman.
You're mean, just like what they said!
Everyone said so when you were in the toilet.
Always frowning and having no friends.
Such a woman like you, do you float in the air
when someone just flatters you by saying
you're cute or that they like you?
Go to hell.
Huh?
Go to hell!
Ouch!
What are you?!
Scram!
Hey, hey, Eiji!
How did you handle her?
Are you talking about Hishida-san?
She's bathing with Shizuku now.
Ah, is that so.
I heard both of them singing.
That's good.
Yes.
When did this begin?
Hm?
When did you decide?
Was it after hearing what I said?
No, I didn't plan to do this at all at that time.
I didn't even think of it when I went to pick her up.
Is that so?
How should I put it? I decided in an instant.
In an instant?
Not bad. To save someone in an instant.
That's exaggerating.
This is not exaggeration.
For example, the people who save those who fall onto
railway tracks decide to do it in an instant, don't they?
That
You could easily die
if you're not careful.
Eiji.
Yes?
I'm like that too.
Come to think of it,
I fell for Ono-sensei in an instant.
I can't swim.
It's possibly fatal to drown in love.
Why don't you
take swimming lessons with Shizuku?
Maybe I should.
Thank you for the food.
Good night.
Good night.
Hello?
Hello? Florist-san?
Cute~ cute~ Florist-san?
That's suppposed to be the fishmonger-san.
(Note: From a Japanese children's song.)
Are you at the apartment now?
No, I'm in Shinjuku.
Shinjuku?
It seems like I missed the last train.
So I'm just walking around.
Walking around? Where are you?
He's getting closer!
I might get attacked
because I'm too cute!
Because I'm too cute.
It's coming!
Help!
You're drunk, aren't you?
Can't I?
I'm already an adult yet I still can't drink?
No, it's not that you can't but you
got to be with someone, right?
I was still together with some strange guy just now.
I told him to go to hell and I threw a shoe at him.
Just joking.
Shizuku-chan left me a message again.
Shizuku was worried because she couldn't contact you at all.
I heard you took that Hishida-san in.
What do you mean by "took in"? She's not a baggage.
She is.
Humans are baggage.
I lef the car in the car park, let's go?
Humans always become the baggage of others.
Okay, I got it.
Since you put it that way
That's right,
everyone's the same. There is no exception at all.
Haven't I become your baggage now?
Yeah
What
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, my words prick.
I'm just like a rose
with thorns all over me.
Yes.
Sorry but I'm not that cheap.
Yes.
I'm not cheap.
I didn't say I was cold.
I'm packing you up.
Packing?
You are a baggage,
aren't you?
Yes.
Even though you're a baggage, you're
different from a normal baggage.
Because you give people no choice but to cherish you.
Because you're so fragile.
Right?
Florist-san.
Yes?
If you put it this way,
Yes?
then I will pretend to cry to hide my smile.
Yes.
Florist-san.
Yes?
Florist-san.
Yes.
Florist-san.
Answer me! Florist-san.
Florist-san?
Yes.
