| Kind-Looking Woman: | Oh, hello. You must be the friend Sakyo told me about. |
| Juza: | I... Uh... |
| Sakyo: | Nope. This isn't him. |
| Real Estate Agent: | Ah! A friend of the family? Would you like to come see the room, as well? |
| Juza: | Uh.. No thanks, I'm-- |
| Kind-Looking Woman: | I'm sorry, but I'll have to decline your offer on this apartment. |
| Real Estate Agent: | I-I'm sorry? |
| Sakyo: | What are you saying, Mother? |
| Juza: | ('Mother'...?) |
| Real Estate Agent: | But ma'am, there aren't that many locations like this at such a great value! |
| Real Estate Agent: | Mr. Furuichi seems happy with it, too. Why not stop by the office to-- |
| Sakyo's Mother: | I'm sorry, but I'm just not in the market to buy a new home. |
| Real Estate Agent: | Uh... Er... |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Now, if you'll excuse me. |
| Sakyo: | Mother... |
| Juza: | ... |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Your name is Hyodo, correct? Would you like to join us for some tea? |
| --- | |
| Juza: | ... |
| Sakyo: | ... |
| Juza: | (...How did I end up here?) |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Are you hungry at all? Go ahead and order whatever you’d like. |
| Juza: | Huh...? |
| Sakyo's Mother: | The menu says the pancakes are their best-seller here. Hm... What do you think? Oh, perhaps you're not a fan a sweets? |
| Juza: | Uh, well, I-- |
| Sakyo: | Please, Mother. He eats likes a horse. Don't offer him food. |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Does he? Well, no matter. Let's just order something. |
| Juza: | ... |
| Sakyo: | Ugh... |
| Juza: | ... |
| Sakyo's Mother: | So, Hyodo. How do you know my Sakyo? |
| Juza: | You can just call me 'Juza', ma'am. Sakyo n' I are in the same theater troupe. This is the play we're puttin' on next. |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Oh, my! |
| Sakyo: | Hey, don't go handing flyers to my mother without my-- |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Honey, you're starring in this one?! Why didn't you tell me? |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Juza, are you a lead, as well? My... So you're in a theater troupe together, you say? |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Sakyo hasn't told me anything about joining a troupe or the fact that he'll be in a play. I had no idea! |
| Juza: | He's gonna be playin' a tough yakuza member this time, an' he really suits the role. He's puttin' his all into it, so you should come watch the performance. |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Is that so? Then I'll definitely be there! |
| Sakyo: | Don't. |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Juza was the one that invited me. I don't think you get to tell me not to go. |
| Sakyo: | ... |
| Sakyo: | Anyway. Why did you turn down that apartment? Did you not like it? |
| Sakyo's Mother: | It was nice. But like I said, I'm not in the market to move right now. |
| Sakyo: | Look, I'd be the one buying it, so-- |
| Sakyo's Mother: | I'm not going to have my son spend so much money on me. Even if the building's a bit old, I'm very content with where I live now. |
| Sakyo: | Won't you at least let me act like a good son? |
| Sakyo's Mother: | If that's what you want to do, then just visit more often. |
| Sakyo's Mother: | You know I'm not the only one who worries about whether you're doing well or eating enough every day. |
| Sakyo: | I'm not a child anymore... |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Besides, that apartment had no spare room. Where were you going to sleep when you come over? |
| Sakyo: | That's hardly a thing to worry abou-- |
| Sakyo's Mother: | You've been ding more than enough for me to be a good son, Sakyo. You're the one who's been wiring money into my account, right? |
| Sakyo's Mother: | You should be spending that money on yourself. |
| SSakyo's Mother: | Did you know, Juza? This boy's always squirreling away his 500 yen coins as if he's stocking up for the winter. You should ask him to buy you some sweets. |
| Juza: | ...! |
| Sakyo: | Don't say it that way, Mother! |
| Sakyo's Mother: | Oh? You don't stockpile your coins anymore? |
| Sakyo: | Ugh. |
| Juza: | (So he does, then...?) |
| --- | |
| Sakyo: | ... |
| Juza: | ... |
| Sakyo: | Sorry you had to see me like that. |
| Juza: | Uh, no. Sorry I followed you. |
| Sakyo: | ...It's fine. |
| Juza: | ... |
| Sakyo: | ... |
| Sakyo: | Looks like it's going to rain. |
| Juza: | I've always wanted to ask, but why'd you join the yakuza? |
| Sakyo: | ... |
| JuzaL | ... |
| Sakyo: | Damn, I was right. |
| Sakyo: | Let's head into that restaurant over there. |
| Juza: | Huh? |
| Sakyo: | I'll spot you a dessert while we shelter from the rain. |
| Sakyo: | You can still eat, right? I've got cash that won't be getting used otherwise. |
| Juza: | ...Thanks. |
| Sakyo: | That day... |
| Sakyo: | It was raining like this, too. |
