Since spring is coming.

Mom.

You should apologize to Ayako.

Is it him?

Apologise!

Apologise now.

Is this lover of yours so good?

There is no need to cry.

Are you hungry?

Everything alright? Yes?

Look over here.

Isn't your big sis a beauty?

Let's go, let's go!

Oh, I forgot this!

Do you like ice-cream?

Do you eat ice-cream?

You don't want it?

What would you like?

Aren't you hungry?

Your stomach hurts?

Are you okay?

What should I do?

Want to go to the hospital?

Mom?

Uhm?

Come on, what is it?

It hurts.

Come on, come on.

It hurts.

I get it, I get it.

Let's eat, okay?

Have a nice meal!

Oh, everything okay?

Is this getcha?

Open it.

What's your favorite fruit?

Uhm, what was that one...

Strawberry!

You like strawberries?

This is good!

Do you like it?

Is that so, you like strawberries.

How old are you?

Seven?

Is that so.

You are seven and you like strawberries.

What about your name?

Ayako.

Ayako?

What is it?

Is it there? You don't know?

Oh, what beautiful flowers.

Where is your house, Ayako?

There.

Mother might be waiting because...

Please go back.

Mom... you know

drank the pesticide to pass away...

I'm back home.

Oh, ah! I drank too much!

Ayako.

Please...

A glass of water.

Water!

Ouch!

- Aya! - Yes.

Were you awake?

Yes, yes.

Thank you.

Will you shower?

Ah, it felt so good.

That middle-aged man.

Do you know Mr Ishida?

Hamo!

He treated me to Hamo.

Oops, I fell.

Don't enter the house from the back.

Sis! It's dangerous.

- What are you doing... - Sorry.

Are you okay?

What were you doing?

Nothing in particular, I didn't do much.

I might have drank a little too much.

Ouch! Ouch!

What are you doing?

It hurts!

- You drank way too much! - It hurts...

Come on, go have a shower. Do you want another glass of water?

- No. - No?

Watch out, it's dangerous.

- Aren't you showering? - No.

Morning, Excuse me.

Morning, Excuse me.

This morning, the old man died.

Please, be careful where you step.

Is somebody helping you go back home?

Is there anybody helping you?

Be careful going back home, okay?

Be careful.

Onishi-san, next!

Who is this?

My wife.

Your grandmother.

Kioki...

your grandmother.

This one here is your mother.

Your passed away mother.

Everyone is under a chosen stone.

Together they are one family.

Hey, Daiji.

Here you know,

I'd like to make a big oven

as big as your mother's belly.

Your grandmother, you know...

died two days before I came back from the war.

After she passed away,

your mother was crying next to your grandmother...

and was hungry!

Since then...

She did her best to live.

Soon after your mother gave birth to you,

she passed away.

It's not very good to stay together for too long.

100 yen change.

Thank you.

One!

Two!

Three!

Four!

One!

Two!

Three!

Four!

Looks like she got hit, call an ambulance.

Are you okay?

It'll come soon.

I got you one month leave from the office.

I'll be working starting tomorrow.

Let go!

It's okay.

What is it?

What?

What?

Just for today... let's stay together.

Come on.

Ayako!

I got it.

I get it.

I get it!

I'm staying here overnight.

But you do as you like.

I'm here.

Don't make me worry.

Thank you.

Whatcha doin?

Taking a walk.

What's ahead?

Nothing.

'The depth of the mountains'

It would be better to see if any valuables are gone.

- That's OK, I don't really care. - Are you okay?

Let go.

Hey, what are you doing!?

Let go!

- Don't.... - Calm down!

Leave me be.

- Calm down! -What is it?

Enough, stop it.

Enough with this...

Let go.

Enough! Calm down!

What, let me go, stop!

Get off.

Stop it now.

What did you say?

As if that matters!

Why you...

Why did you try to kill yourself?

Don't run away.

Whatcha doin?

Aren't you all wet!
