To Love (愛する)

Aisuru

I'm cold...

I'm hungry...

I want something good to eat somewhere.

What's that?

He's selling lunchboxes

Come all the way here for a lunchbox?

Why not?

One?

I want all the rest

All three for yourself?

And three's not enough

Here's your money.

Oh, well, let's go home...

Want a lift into town?

Oh, come on, ride with me!

Get the flags...

Let me out over there.

Thanks a lot.

Mitsu, have him take you home.

Oh, I can't do that!

I have something to do.

A date?

Maybe. See ya!

Oh, wait!

What am I to do?

Never gone for a drive with a guy before?

Oh...

Have dinner with me?

Oh...

I'm starved. Come on!

Just dinner. OK?

Oh, that was good.

Do you sell lunchboxes there every day?

Looks like a good business.

It's just a part time job. Not much money in it

Don't you want a fulltime job?

I'm looking for a good company.

I'm sure you'll find one.

Why's that?

Why?

I don't know...

I just have a hunch...

You're strange.

What's your name?

Mitsu Morita. What's yours?

Tsutomu Yoshioka.

Nice name. Like a movie star

You like movies?

I go every week.

How about seeing one today with me?

Oh...

Why not?

Going alone is no fun for me.

Did you like it?

It was good.

I'm thirsty. Let's get something to drink.

Your first time in a place like this?

People from Okinawa hang out here.

You come often?

Every other day.

So often?

I work as a writer here too.

Oh, really?

I have to work hard to make a living.

What's wrong?

You paid for the movie, let me pay for this.

Don't be stupid!

But won't you be sorry later?

Just put your purse away.

I need to call Yoshiko. Where's the phone?

Back there.

She's a cutie.

You make a good couple.

You want to have her later?

Then buy her one of those special cocktails.

It'll make things easier.

Then bring her one.

Yes, sir!

So, bottoms up!

Bottoms up!

This is fun.

If Yoshiko were here, she'd be surprised.

Bring us each one more.

Yes. Sir!

I've never had a cocktail like this.

Then drink it dry.

Is the station this way?

No. Let's make one more stop.

I have to go home.

But it's still early.

Let's go in.

Oh, come on.

I like you. Come on...

I'm scared...

I like you a lot.

Oh, no!

Don't you like me?

- I like you. - Then prove it.

Come on, please.

Let's go home.

Go home?

Oh, all right. I'm going home alone.

You mad?

Sure, I am.

Will you see me again?

No, stupid!

I'll never see you again.

What's wrong?

It hurts

I had polio a long time ago.

Ouch!

My right shoulder's twisted.

And I have a bad leg.

So girls never like me and I was lonely.

Really?

How pitiful.

I don't need your pity.

Have you been places like that a lot?

Of course not

I thought you like me.

So I wanted to go for the first time.

Really?

In that case...

Then let's go there.

Is it really OK?

I love you...

Is this the first time for you?

Do you still feel lonely?

Let's go...

Donate to the Salvation Army!

Jesus will bless you!

May I have one more?

Thank you.

Look here.

One is for you.

I don't want it...

Take it.

If you do, something good will happen.

I'll take the train home.

So long, then.

When will I see you again?

I'll call you.

Please don't forget.

Shoei Spinning Mill

Have you heard from Yoshioka?

It's been more than 10 days.

He's always out when I call.

Strange.

You have his address so go see him.

3.9 kg

Excuse me. Hello?

What do you want?

I came to see Yoshioka

You a friend of his?

Yes. Is he here?

As soon as he got a job,

he up and left.

He didn't give any notice.

Sorry...

Where did he go?

I'd like to know that.

Kids these days are really rude.

Sorry.

We will consider that carefully.

How about one more?

Your car's here.

Goodbye.

Leaving so soon?

Please come again.

Where's the car?

Thanks.

Thank you. Come again.

See you later.

Yoshioka...

I want to talk to you.

Who are you?

Yoshiko.

Mitsu's friend.

Come here, Mitsu.

What is it?

He's outside.

It's been a long time...

I've worried about you.

I work late every night.

But I just started, so I can't complain.

It's rough for you.

I've worried about you, too.

I'm sorry.

Why doesn't anybody answer your phone.

Our company went bankrupt.

So we took jobs here.

Why not go home?

It's better if I don't...

Why?

My dad remarried..

His wife has three kids

I didn't want to be a burden on them.

So I came to Tokyo.

You're from Okinawa?
