Love for an Idiot (痴人の愛)

Jyoji.

You don't play volley ball?

I've never been good at sports.

You're not good at drinking, slot machines...

or playing mah-jong either.

Yea, I hate gambling.

You're a very serious man.

How can you release all your pressure from work...

if you don't cut loose.

You can't get rid of your work pressures.

You're already 31 years old.

At least get married or something.

You tell me, what do you think?

I don't know what other people think,

but marriage is for a lifetime.

I need to consider it.

I don't know what to tell you.

What do you think?

Actually I have a little pet at home.

A bet?

A pet? That's good.

What? A dog or a cat?

A chicken?

It's a cat.

What kind of cat?

What kind of cat? A Persian? A mountain cat?

A very lovely mixed breed.

It is so beautiful, I can't describe it in words.

Jyoji.

Just get off work?

You want a lift?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Jyoji.

You don't look well.

You need to take it easy.

I can get you some time off.

Thanks, that's okay.

If your face continues to look...

so pale and worn...

it won't help your position at the job.

Excuse me.

I'm home.

Hey, I'm home!

It's me!

Where are you?

You're hiding somewhere again.

Here?

Can't be there!

Must be hiding here!

Ah ha! I got you!

Got you!

Okay! Finally got you!

You're back.

How do you like the way...

this swim suit feels?

So beautiful.

Let's take some pictures.

CHI JIN NO AI

The first time I saw Naomi was at...

a coffee shop.

She was known to be a grumpy and rude waitress,

but even so, she was a smart girl.

She was just wasting her time in that coffee shop.

She had a special name...

and was very educated.

She was a very nice girl,

the kind you would like to marry.

She worked in a bar at night,

and spent her days in a hotel.

Fortunately, I had an arrangement with her family.

They lived in a small cottage.

I saw a photograph of her near the house.

It looked to be near the sea.

It was sunny.

Naomi looked like she liked it very much.

Even though I said she would be a nice girl to marry,

I still would not marry her.

She's more like a daughter to me.

She sees me as an old man with too much passion.

Of course, we sleep in separate beds.

Naomi learned to swim.

She looks so beautiful when she swims.

Just like a little frog.

She always has a lot of energy,

jumping around like a kitten.

Her body,

breasts,

waist, feet,

her entire body is so smooth.

Tender packaging for all her charms.

What a beautiful body!

You are such a bright girl.

You're disgusting!

Not good!

But you need to study English harder.

Become even smarter.

I would rather be your wife,

than to become smarter.

Marry me.

It is too soon.

I will marry you when you become a more beautiful...

and smarter adult.

If we get married,

I will study harder.

Please marry me!

Hurry up!

It's tough for me too.

You should be more patient.

I hate having to wait.

Marry me now.

Naomi.

Okay, Naomi.

Really?

Sure.

Honey.

You!

What are you looking at?

Things are getting good now.

Stop it!

I wanna see!

You are so bad!

Hello.

Jyoji.

I need to ask a favor of you today.

What would that be?

Don't be so formal. Come inside.

Please. Please.

Sorry it's so dirty in here,

but we are all just like family.

So what brings you here?

Actually...

I want to have Naomi... officially.

You do? We agreed on just one year.

Last night, for the first time, we did what a husband and wife should do.

I just wanted to inform you properly.

So you're saying you had not had sex with her until last night?

Please...

Mr. Jyoji didn't do...

"that thing" with Naomi for the entire year.

No wonder you did so well in college.

You can go now.

Call me if you need more.

Okay.

You're great.

My savings are about 76,000 yen.

That is equal to the earnings of three people in the countryside.

It's not really all that much money,

but if I gave it all...

No need to worry about that.

She has always been spoiled.

It is up to you how you want to treat her.

I am not the sort of mother who cannot live without her daughter.

I don't have any complaints.

It's hot in here, mother.

Ah Naomi, you are looking very pretty these days.

Hello.

Excuse me.

I've been looking for you everywhere.

Where have you been?

You stopped working?

Now I am a bar girl and just drink with the customers.

I start tomorrow.

Being a bar girl is more decent.

And you can still do the old work once in a while.

Just let some men look at my body for 7000 yen.

Naomi, you could do that too.

It's a decent living.

I---

hate that...

dirty family.

I've tried hard to break ties with them.

I am lucky,

thanks to you.

It is me who is lucky.

To have you as my wife.

Will your mother...

approve our marriage?

No problem.

Don't worry about that.

Darling...

don't abandon me.

I promise to be a good wife for you.

I live for you.

If that is want you want, I will try.

Study harder. Become a better woman.

I will.

I will try to study English. And piano.

I won't let you down.

Naomi.

My mother in the country forgave me...

and helped me to get Naomi's name registered.

Of course we sleep together.

We have a big bed now.

But I told her...

the wedding would not be for another two or three years.

We shared the happy world of a couple.

That is hard for a single person to understand.

Her body is more and more beautiful.

More like a woman's.
