I thought you wouldn't think that way.

Sorry. It's my fault.

Shut up! I'll leave. Goodbye!

Lily...

Lily!

Tora!

"Everyone.

"I'm sorry to have kept you.

"We bring you... Lily matsuoka's singing show."

The curtain rises slowly.

A spotlight catches her.

Lily's standing alone in a white dress.

She's a nice woman.

She's slim and has big eyes.

A real beaut!

The audience whisper to one another.

"How lovely!"

"She looks great."

"Lily, you're Japan's best!"

She starts singing.

"When I drink sake at a bar...

"All by myself..."

A hush falls over the hall.

Everyone's listening.

They're crying.

Lily's singing a sad song.

She finishes.

Bouquets, tape, confetti...!

And deafening applause.

I'm sure she'd cry.

Those big eyes full of tears.

Even though having guts,

she'd cry.

Actually...

Don't get mad. Promise?

What is it?

Speak up.

You're only making us impatient.

Isn't she?

Then I'll tell you.

I wonder how...

Great it'll be if you married brother.

I'm only joking. I really am.

Forget it. It's just a dream.

All right.

If a woman like me will do.

Gen!

Hello!

Thanks for the trouble.

Thank you.

Come again.

You all right?

It's heavy.

Hello.

Nice day.

Yomogi?

Come next month.

I like the smell.

It used to grow all over the riverbanks.

I picked them on my way home from school.

And you gave me money.

Cherry trees stood along the banks.

It was so beautiful in spring.

We didn't see cherry blossoms this year.

Now, the season is over.

It's already summer.

The mountains are green at hakone.

We can enjoy the sights and the spa.

Why don't you go there?

Sounds nice.

Terrible!

The tax office got me.

You're spoiling the mood.

Look happy. It's a beautiful day.

What's wrong?

I tried to cut some taxes.

But they found out and fined me.

It's your own fault.

Don't be mean.

I wish I could hang myself.

Many cheat millions on their taxes.

Why do they pick on me?

You're here?

Going now?

Where to?

A cabaret.

In broad daylight?

Business. Delivering their posters.

You print things like this?

Business is slow.

Try to get more orders.

Drive carefully.

10,000 yen a day.

Bar hostesses are paid well.

But it's not pleasant work.

They buy their own dresses.

They have to dance until they wear out.

They don't. You're out of date.

What do they do?

Not easy to explain.

Especially in front of ladies.

Didn't you want to hang yourself?

Why the smirk on your face?

I go there only on business.

I'll have to borrow money.

What a day!

I'm back.

Welcome back.

What's this?

"Wanted - hostesses..."

Give me some cookies.

Wait.

Hello, Lily.

It's me, hiroshi of toraya.

It's you!

It's been years!

Is sakura okay?
