Fly On (ほつれる)

Good morning.

It's cold enough for the winter duvet, isn't it?

You're right, I'll get it out.

Thanks.

FLY ON

Thanks.

- Let's grind it facing the mountains. - For great coffee!

This one?

Yeah.

Having a chef cook for us made it more like a hotel than a campsite.

I wouldn't expect any less.

I can't believe there's air conditioning.

You can't call that a tent.

I've never been to a place like this before.

I haven't been anywhere for a month.

But I could get used to camping.

That's because we're glamping, not camping.

Here.

What's this?

For our hands without the wedding ring.

Does it fit okay? I hope so.

Yeah, it's perfect.

Apparently, our right and left hands aren't necessarily the same size.

It's a perfect fit.

Hold your hand out.

I'm not used to taking photos with my left hand.

Help me.

It's blurred.

It's fine, post it.

No, let's take another one.

Careful.

Make sure it's not blurred.

That'll do.

How can I top this for your birthday?

Shall I take them back?

Don't get your hopes up.

It doesn't have to be special.

You can recycle a present you gave Fuminori.

I just remembered,

he once gave me and his wife exactly the same present.

- How horrible! - Right?

You just said I should do it!

- Shall we go? - Yeah.

Are you okay?

Yeah, fine.

Your phone's ringing.

Is it Yoriko?

No, one of my authors.

Probably asking about his manuscript's corrections.

Shouldn't you answer?

That would be far too Japanese of me.

I'm still on holiday.

Really? I'm impressed.

I'm hungry.

Already?

When do we get back? We should grab some lunch.

What if somebody sees us?

It'll be fine.

Okay, then, let's have lunch.

Thank you for travelling with us today, we have reached the terminus.

No news?

He was picking up Hiromu from his ex, so he probably has his hands full.

Oh, yeah, that ex of his.

She always seems to be busy.

Good thing you don't mind taking care of their son.

It's not like I can refuse.

She's a single mother, it can't be easy.

If I were a single mother...

hypothetically, of course,

I'd want the dad and his family to help out.

When Fuminori isn't available, his mum takes over.

I wouldn't put up with it for long,

if I were you.

I suppose so.

From next week he'll have him on Thursdays.

We should meet then.

- He'll be with Hiromu? - Yeah.

Thursdays?

Sure.

I can arrange my work around that.

Yoriko's working too.

Talk of the devil.

I'll leave you to it, then.

I'm going to get a taxi.

See you Thursday.

Thursday, same place as usual?

Hello.

Oh, right, okay.

Yeah, okay.

No, it's fine, really.

I mean, it's not your fault.

Oh, your mum's there as well?

Yeah, I should be back by then.

You need to talk to me? What about?

Just a sec.

Sorry.

I've got to go.

Yeah, we'll talk later.

Okay, yeah.

Emergency services.

Hello, I need an ambulance.

What's your emergency?

- A man's been run over by a car. - Can you give me the address?

The address...

- Are you okay? - Yes, I'm just...

Hello?

Are you getting any other emergency calls?

Any other calls about a car accident? Right now?

Sorry?

Have you eaten?

No, I haven't.

I cooked some extra in case. You want some?

No, I'm okay.

I lost track of time in a café.

With Eri?

No, she left before me.

Can I throw this away?

Yeah, sorry, that was Hiromu's.

Are there any left?

I'm not sure.

I should go and buy some more.

You know I said we need to talk?

Can we do it after I've eaten? I bought some wine.

Can it wait? I'm sorry.

Hello.

Hello?

Hello.

- Did you get the message? - What message?

About Kimura.

He died. It was a notification about his funeral.

Is that so?

He went camping alone and was on his way home.

I see.

He went camping alone?

Right.

Are you okay?

Yeah, of course. Thanks for letting me know.

Had you seen him recently?

No, not recently, no.

What about our shopping outing?

Up to you, Eri. Maybe after the funeral?

Okay, we'll decide when we're there.

- Yeah, let's do that. - Right.

- Yeah. - And check your messages.

Can we talk now?

Yeah. Why not?

I was thinking of buying a house,

and putting this place up for rent.

Really?

A new idea of yours?

Not new, no.

My company's having a brand renewal.

I could get a company discount.

I'll leave that up to you.

You'll still need to see the house.

Well, let me know when you've scheduled a visit.

Do you want to go away somewhere?

What?

I thought you might like a break.

How do you mean?

We don't have to stay the night.

Maybe even somewhere we've been before.

Do I look that fed up?

No, that's not it.

It's something I want to do.

We can't live with this weight for ever.

I can't, anyway.

You know I'm right.

We're both responsible for this tension between us.

It doesn't help with making a baby.

In fact, it makes it impossible.

- What do you think? - About what?

About the tension, having a baby.

I'm not happy with it either.

You know that now is our last chance.

I'm well aware that I'm the cause of it all.

But I think my mum would look at us differently

if we had a child.

She won't have a key to the house.

Where would she look after Hiromu?

I have a few ideas.

For example?

Instead of us looking after him,

I thought her side of the family could step in more often.

Okay.

Where do you want to go for a break?

I'll sort something out, if you don't have any ideas.

Throw them in the back.

How was it?

Can't you tell?

Why didn't you come?

It's complicated.

Scared of the family?

No, that's not it at all.

I don't know.

I haven't come to terms with his death.

It would be disrespectful.

That's because...

you didn't see him.

It was...
