From year end to New Year,

we may forget fire precautions as we're so busy.

The Fire Department is starting a fire precaution campaign.

Education on fire precaution is now being done.

Fire cases have been going down for 20 years, a notable record.

This reflects the alertness of our Kyoto citizens.

We need your help to make Kyoto a fire-less city.

How's your wife?

She's fine.

And...

Yoshimasa?

- He's grown. - In kindergarten? - Yes.

There's one more...

above?

Kaori, a girl.

- She's Grade 2. - I see.

I've never met her.

- Really? - Yes.

You said you want to talk?

It's nothing really...

just...

we haven't seen each other for long.

So...

I want to see you.

- Oh. - Yes.

I was surprised when you phoned.

Sorry.

I thought...

you're in trouble.

Something is troubling me, though.

Say it.

Do you...

want to eat something?

- Perhaps... - Today, it's...

- my treat. - Oh!

- Here. - Thanks.

Drink.

You can drink.

Thanks to the 4 years in university.

Here.

- You can, right? - Yes.

Oh!

Now you.

Today...

OK.

Drink.

It's...

about what?

No...

- Boyfriend? - No.

You have one?

They say, "Date in January,

"date the whole year."

Really?

I don't have a boyfriend.

- Liar! Really? - I don't have any.

No man will...

let go a young and charming woman like you.

Be honest.

But...

We're alone,

we drank a lot.

I'm afraid.

Why?

When you're in high school, boys liked you a lot.

You find it funny that I'm 23 and still a virgin?

Well...

What type of man...

do you like?

Nice,

tall,

like when you were young, Teacher.

Now, I'm no good.

Thanks.

- Some more. - I can't... - You can.

Boyfriends... I have a lot.

But no lover.

- No? - No.

Really?

It's true.

But compared to the past,

you got more womanly.

- Really? - Yes.

I didn't recognize you just then.

I have makeup on.

When you're young, have you fallen in love?

Yes, just like the others.

Like the others.

You?

I want to be like the others.

If we go farther...

Drink.

Only hotels here.

Let's go in.

You did this a lot?

I've never done this. Really!

I know it!

"Rest"

This is...

"Green"!

Green.

Lets go in.

- Really? - Yes? - We'll go in?

Go in!

Welcome.

Welcome.

You're early today.

- 2 bottles of beer. - 2 bottles of beer, yes.

The bill, please.

Nothing to do at home but too early to sleep.

Go have fun.

It's still early.

- I have work tomorrow. - Oh.

Your hours are early?

Yes, I have to go out at 7.

Incredible!

- 250 yen please. - Here. - Thanks!

- Goodbye. - Yes.

- Bye. - Bye.

BATHHOUSE

There.

It's small.

Wait here.

Sure.

I'll tidy it up.

You may come in now.

- Give me your bag. - OK?

I come in now.

It's very small here.

Ashtray.

- Here. - Thanks.

Some drinks?

Coffee?

- Only instant. - Yes. - Yes?

Got a match?

A match.

Sorry.

This OK?

Thanks.

May I?

- It's tidy. - What?

- It's tidy. - Because there's nothing.

I'm so happy today.

- Really? - Yes.

You drive very well, Masaru.

- Really? - I'm surprised.

You can't move like this?

Thanks.

Enjoy.

I put in sugar already.

Maybe not enough.

That's OK.

Of the men who came here,

you're the 2nd one, after Dad.

- Really? - Yes.

Nice.

Hot.

Oh yes, no match.

Wait.

Matches from "Ken".

You always go there?

- No. - Really?

I eat at home, mostly.

Oh?

Do you smoke?

Thirsty.

I'm thirsty. Anything to drink?

Beer.

Some beer?

Wait.

Want some cheese?

- You drink? - Yes.

- You sleep in this? - Yes.

Cute.

- Cute? - Yes.

I'll drink with you.

Wait.

Thanks.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Tomorrow?

I'm free.

- Yes? - Yes.

Tomorrow... I have to get up early.

Work.

Leaving?

Travelling far tomorrow.

Tough work.

Then I'll work tomorrow.

- What time is it? - Now?

Wait.

It's...

past 11.

Past 11?

- Stay longer. - I have to leave early tomorrow.

- I have one more beer. - No.

The shirt.

- I should have hung it up. - No.

It's always wrinkly.
