Hotaru no Hikari (2007) s01e05 Episode Script

1
[Late for date ---- call from him ---- "I used to like you" ---- "Goodbye" ]
Goodbye.
Actually, I couldn't meet her.
She didn't bother to show up?
There was a message saying she had sudden business.
What the hell.
It's partly my fault, calling her out so suddenly.
Actually, it's that.
Um, you know, don't keep thinking about it.
I like you best - when you're smiling, honey.
Anyway, thanks for the call. See you.
Ok.
What on earth is this?
What does this imply?
Uh I wanna tell somebody
This messed up feeling, I need someone to listen!
I don't want to listen. No doubt it's about something horribly dumb.
You were back?
You were back too.
You're early.
You're early too.
Weren't you meeting up with your wife?
Weren't you having a date with Teshima?
Yes, I was having a date.
Then it must have been very exciting.
Very.
Good for you.
Very.
Good for you.
Very.
That was sick!
Can't tell
[Cheers to your first date. Congratulations.]
I really can't tell manager.
But I need to talk to somebody!
Somebody please listen to me!
Blog!
That's it!
I'll write them in my blog!
I don't HAVE a blog!!
Forum
I'll write them in a forum!
Let me explain, the story of my love!
Date, date, date
Oh, thanks for the other day. The beer.
Not at all.
Beer, beer, beer
It's way too stupid!!
I'll stop it.
I'll just stop thinking about it!
Pretend it didn't happen!
Tomorrow's garbage is the inflammable stuff.
Kaonashi-onna?
[note: Kaonashi = lit: no face. Comes from a weird character with the same name in Miyazaki Hayao's anime, "Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi"]
You're in charge of the garbage this week, so I'll leave it to you.
Are you in your right mind?
Something happened with Teshima, right?
What's Teshima?
The - the guy you fell in love with.
Fall in love? Me?
I prefer lazing at home than being in love.
How could I ever fall in love??
Impossible. I could boil tea on my tummy.
[note: It just means it's so funny she could laugh.]
This woman is going to pretend it all didn't happen?
So you're giving Teshima up?
It's Teshima-san is just a co-worker. I have no feelings for him.
Oh right.
I keep telling her to squash these cans
Gah! Mixed flammable stuff too!
-Amemiya.
-Yes.
-Teshima.
-Yes.
The meeting this morning has been changed to the 15th floor meeting room.
Yes.
Excuse me.
All alone with Teshima-san
Just the two of us?!
Manager?
Manager?
Manager!
A long, long time ago.
A memory from many summers ago.
I held a tiny firefly
in my childish hands.
Looking as if it's almost about to disappear,
such a tiny fragile glow.

What on earth were you thinking? Locking me in the meeting room!
Is that supposed to be the act of a boss?
Oh, you were locked in?
Faking innocence? You're the only person who would do that!
So? How did you get out?
A guy from sales department thought it was weird that it was locked.
He got you out, did he? Good for you.
It is NOT good!
Though it was just a few minutes
Huh?
Just a few minutes?
So Teshima, he
He didn't notice me.
But for me, it was superbly distubing!
Why?
Why?!
Because I was alone with the guy I like!
The guy you like?
Teshima-san, of course!
So you still like him.
You said you didn't care about him.
That you didn't care a single bit from the beginning.
Go go, go go
You were supposed to attend a wedding ceremony today, right?
The daughter of Kakei Building company's.
Come on, hurry and prepare! You're gonna be late.
Dokkoi-Shotarou.
It's great, this feeling I just spread my arms and all the necessities are within reach.
Amemiya.
You're still here?
I got a call from Yamada.
I told her to call your cell phone.
Huh?
Oh, thanks.
Hello?
Hotaru? I'm sorry, but could you attend today's wedding ceremony in my place?
Er me?
I just called Manager Takano, and he said "Amemiya should be free."
- finished talking yet?
-I'm sorry, but please. I'll show up for the party after the ceremony.
So.
I have plans.
This is the wedding ceremony of an important customer.
I have imporatant things to do.
Lying down and lazing around doesn't have to be today.
It has to be today!
I feel like I HAVE to laze around today!
-After seeing death in the meeting room
-You're still talking about that?
It was living hell.
You exaggerate.
It was just a few minutes, wasn't it?
You wouldn't understand!
I failed my date and
I thought so.
And I can't face Teshima-san properly!
I can't even have a normal conversation with him.
That's the kind of damage my heart has sustained!
I feel I'm so hopeless, and irritating,
but I still have to go to work.
So I desperately told myself to pretend nothing happened
But then, what? I get locked in the meeting room with him!
I don't know what your intentions were, but I can no longer do anything!
It just makes my heart ache!
BecauseI still like him.
Yes. It's like you say.
I still
Amemiya.
like Teshima-san!
Amemiya.
Manager
Go change.
We're going.
Thank you for waiting.
The entrance of the bride and groom.
Ugh looks so hard to walk. Wear jerseys, I say.
Congratulations.
What congratulations
I can't even congratulate others' happiness
-Hey hey, have you heard?
It's her THIRD time.
What?
The bride. So young, and divorced twice already!
She failed mariage twice?!
- Sh! Not so loud!
I'm sorry.
Good! Lucky me, I fell out of love before divorcing.
What a close shave
not to have married yet!
Fell out of love?
That's it I fell out of love!
That's why I'm so mean today!
The baddie is the love failure!
Their honeymoon is Paris.
How enviable
My honeymoon shall be the Caribbeans.
You pirate?
But you need a partner before that.
Too true.
I'm going steady with Tadokoro-kun. Didn't you know?
I had no idea is it going well?
Recently, he' so in love with me!
You're imagining things. Deluded. Complacence!
Huh?
Nothing.
It's not me it's the love failure inside me that makes me say things.
Oh, isn't manager's speech coming next?
I would like to give my deepest gratitude for including me in this wonderful occasion.
-Gretagarco once said
- Never heard.
"Of all the things I have seen so far, the most beautiful sight has been an old couple walking arm in arm."
Also for me, the sight of husband and wife who spent many years together is the object of my admiration.
Poor him he has to live separately.
Nietzsche also said
Quoting again?
Life as husband and wife is like a long conversation.
Without words, there will be no understanding.
Emotion will not be understood till spoken.
I sincerely wish that the two of you will build a warm family with ever-lasting conversation.
Lastly, I would like to congratulate you again on your marriage.
Congratulations.
Thank you very much.
I wish you happiness.
Oh, Hotaru.
I'm so sorry.
Not at all.
Oh, Makoto-kun.
You were called too?
Er, yes. I was asked to attend, even if it's just a bit.
We want to look good you see, and you're a new designer returned from London.
You want to greet some people?
Yes.
Sachiko!
God, he even followed me here?
There's people I work with here. So please leave.
I'm not finished talking.
But I am.
Come on, let's go outside.
Stop it, stop it!
Sachiko, let's go
Stop it!
Two seconds!
Please, I'm asking you to leave!
Can't we talk about this just one more time?
It's like a soap opera
It's like a soap opera
Why do we always have to do this? I just need to talk to you.
We need to stop them.
Right. Stop them!
-Please stop. She wants you to stop
- Please stop!
Shh! Stop, stop.
Be quiet!
What shall we see next?
Movie again?
Then batting center.
Or go balling.
It's a rare day off. Can't we just laze around?
I feel that's a waste of time.
And if I don't do anything, I
Keep thinking about Teshima?
You asked me to accompany you because you wanted to forget about him, right?
-That's not
-I'm not much of a help for a change of mood, am I?
It's not like that.
Don't be too hard on yourself.
You don't have to lie to yourself in front of me.
You just need to face your own feelings all you want.
You like him, don't you?
You like Teshima, don't you?
So, fight on, Yuuka.
You'll definately be fine.
The day you'll get Teshima is so near.
It's coming! Look, look!
Don't give up.
Sorry for the unsightly scene.
Not at all.
It's just a slight misunderstanding, you know.
Love is difficult.
Yes.
But that's also why love is fun, because it's difficult.
Do you think so?
Difficult love is just painful, isn't it?
Oh my! You're more amateurish than I thought!
A person I really respect once told me to love like reading a book.
Oh.
Yes. For me, love that goes too well doesn't count as love in the first place.
Well, see you!
Goodbye!
Hello? Where are you now?
Love like reading a book what does that mean?
Doesn't make sense, does it?
It doesn't, does it?
Oh, then, I'll say goodbye here too.
Yes.
Good night.
That was good. That was good!
I could have a normal conversation with him!
Viva! Normal conversation!
Pair rice bowls, huh?
So this was the gift by the newlyweds today?
Do you remember what it was for my wedding?
Bear shaped wood carvings.
We carved our names here and here on the bear, and they hated us
-Hey.
What was it that you were hiding from me?
What were the gifts when you married?
Wine glass.
Ah, that was it. That was fashionable.
You're hiding something, right?
You wanted to tell me, that's why you called, right?
Mm.
You. Get to the point.
Good news? Bad news?
How could it be good news?
It's about your wife.
If it's bad news, there's no need to listen.
Just keep it inside your heart.
Hey.
Hey! Wait up.
You're divorcing anyway.
You can just listen.
I hate it when you accuse yourse
I'm not divorcing.
I'm thinking of re-starting with her.
You're saying that again
I'm restarting.
This is my conclusion.
You're stupid.
You're really stupid.
You think women will move out with nowhere to go?
What do you mean?
Of course she planned everything out beforehand.
She's not that kind of
She's living with our junior from university.
I don't know when the relationship started, but
your wife has long since started on a different road from yours.
Can you still say you have no intentions of divorcing?
Can you still say you want to redo things with her?
You think women are fantasic.
Women are much stronger, slyer, and have more nerve than us!
Welcome home.
You were late.
Were you waiting for me?
There's something I want you to hear.
Actually, I with Teshima-san, I.
could have a normal conversation!
Oh.
He said "It doesn't make sense"
and I said, "It doesn't, does it?"
I don't understand either.
I could talk normally!
Who would have thought that it would take such a short time to get normal again!
I really needed to tell somebody!
I don't understand the "falling out of love" thing.
He said he liked you, didn't he?
How come you know?
Your memo-pad inside the nonflammable garbage!
So it's like and like. Why is it not going well?
Well, um, that
Er
Should I put it, a kind of misunderstanding, maybe?
All love relationships are difficult, you know.
Forget it.
Manager!
There's more?
I've just had a genius idea.
Rather than a failing love relationship, a nice friendly relationship is better!
Huh?
From now on, I'll stop worrying about love that won't succeed, and fight to become Teshima-san's friend!
Oh.
Yes!
Viva friendship!
Hmph, please say it too!
C'mon, Viva-friendship!
Okay okay, viva-friendship.
Viva-friendship!
Yes!
Wait a sec, manager!
There's still more?
Sure.
Starting tomorrow, I'll talk and talk to Teshima-san. Right?
It's hot today, isn't it?
Yes.
Is it going to be hot tomorrow?
What about the day after? And the day after?
Amemiya.
Yes?
Sorry to bother, but I'll place the materials in the 15th floor meeting room.
Yes!
Excuse me.
Again?!
Is something the matter?
Um? No, um
This part was kind of dirty.
Manager!
Hello?
Why do you have to do the same thing?
Your fault for falling into the same trap.
Please don't do this.
Ouch!
Sorry. You okay?
Key
Yeah. It was locked. They're quite cautious.
Teshima-kun.
Yes.
Is this okay?
I'm sorry to bother you.
I photo-copied for everybody. By the way, I heard
Tokyo Design Award premium pair ticket
you went with Yuuka-chan, right?
"Thank you so much for the tickets!" she told me.
Whatit was your birthday that day?
Yes.
I met him coincidentally, when I was walking alone.
Do you know what the Japanese population is?
126 million.
So it can't be coincidence
Because I was thinking of him, maybe god favored me.
What?
It really wasn't intentional.
I was surprised too. I'd thought he was with you.
Yuuka-san.
I figured out the date for the bar in Ebisu.
Thank you.
I don't know what made you stand him up, but if you don't hold on to him firmly, maybe next time won't be just coincidence.
Yuuka-san
Something the matter?
You're here
I'm back.
What's the matter? You haven't even changed.
What?
What, what?
What's the matter? Is the bath broken?
Huh? Wait!
What the hell are you doing?!
You! Enjoy the sufferings of a locked person!
What are you saying? Open.
Open up!
Open up. How old do you think you are?
Which mouth says that?
This mouth!
You!
Shit!
- Open
- Like I would!
Hey. Don't go. At least open this before you Hey!
Hello?
Minako?
I made a mistake on the color assigned by the customers!
What?
We're just contacting the interior company
No good. Can't get in touch. Manager doesn't take my calls either.
The customers will inspect tomorrow morning!
Calm down. It's the site where you were in charge, right?
Yes. Yes. I understand.
She left?
No kidding!
Are you okay?
He doesn't take the call.
We can't get in touch with the manager.
What?
OiAmemiya
Yes. Oh, I'm going over to the site now.
What do you plan to do?
Paint over it.
It'll be fine. It'll be running repairs, but I'll do something about till morning.
Okay. I'll send people over then.
Please do that.
Teshima-san.
Amemiya-san.
I'll help. Please tell me what to do.
Yes. Then please do the lower part.
Yes.
Ah, it's here.
- Here?
I'll start over here.
You were locked in for just 3 minutes, by contrast
HOW MANY HOURS DO YOU NEED TO LEAVE ME ALONE?!?!
I'm sorry! I totally forgot!
You totally forgot and what were you doing?
Handling accidents at work!
That can't be helped?
Yes!
What the hell!
I'm sorry!
I'm sorry for not taking your calls.
Unavoidable circumstances.
I'll take care of the rest.
Okay. Thanks for everything.
You too. You can sleep too.
I'll take care of these too.
For example
Huh?
For example, to people who have always put energy into love,
how shall I put it, maybe there's something like the god of love.
God of love?
He supports you. Like, making you meet somebody coincidentally.
Oh.
But,
to me, who's thought low of love, the god of love doesn't come.
Oh. There's nobody here.
While I was working with Teshima-san, I was wondering about that.
Oh.
After we finished our work, we clapped our hands together, like this.
I did that with him too, like this, normally.
Cause we're friends.
Oh.
I'm more fit to have a good friendship than a bad love relationship.
Oh.
It's better like that.
Oh.
We will definately finish by the appointed date.
I apologize again for what happened.
Yes.
Excuse me.
Hello?
I finally got through to you.
I'm sorry.
No. I've been busy too.
I was intending to have a talk with you again, but I don't seem to be able to.
If you want, I can sign the divorce documents.
Is it okay?
Yes.
Thank you.
That's all. Bye.
Excuse me.
That bastard
Hello?
Devil.
If you have time to call back, open this quickly!
You're locked in again?
If you have time to make excuses
Wait. Think calmly for 3 minutes.
I did.
Please open.
This is your chance. Isn't this a great opportunity for you?
Huh?
This is your last chance to be in a bad love relationship, rather than an easy frienship.
Listen.
Becaue it is against my ethic that a boss talk private things with a junior, I never told you before
but I regret living apart with my wife.
No, to be precise, I regret believing that a grown up man should silently accept his wife's decision.
I really wanted to tell her,
I don't wanna do that.
I don't wanna live apart.
I wanna be with you.
I love you.
I don't wanna lose you.
I wanted to say all these.
But, I couldn't.
If one lets out all these feelings but isn't accepted, it will remain in the heart as a horrible wound.
But you are still young. Even if it's a horrible experience, don't you think it's better than nothing?
I don't know how long you've been absent from love, but you felt in love since a long time, didn't you?
You fell in love with somebody, right?
Treasure that feeling.
Treasure yourself for being able to love somebody.
Manager
Feelings cannot be understood till spoken.
Hello?
I forgot to say the most important thing.
This time, I really did not do anything.
Then, who?
The god of love that you mentioned, I suppose.
Manager
So, I have no responsibilities whatsoever.
Continue being locked up for 2 hours, 3 hours. Like me last night.
Excuse me. What's the matter?
Did something happen?
Please listen as you are.
First of all, I'm sorry for standing you up for the date.
When you asked me, I was very, very happy.
When you said goodbye. It was very, very painful.
Amemiya-san.
Secondly, I moved to the interior group, and when I was finally starting to feel comfortable, I met you.
Looking back, the buried me
By buried, I mean, not buried in garbage in untidy rooms and stuff, but
my heart which was buried.
I mean, in the busy everyday life, I was buried under everybody.
Yes, that kind of me, you discovered me out.
Just like Sleeping Beauty awaking with the kiss of a prince.
I don't mean to say that I am a princess.
I don't have that honor.
Um what I want to say is.
I about you
about you
God, the god of love, give me power!
I like you!
Excuse me.
You okay? Ah, you were here!
I didn't know if anybody was in, so I locked it by mistake.
Locked?
YOU'RE the god of love?!
Teshima-kun.
Yes.
This is the corrected version. Good enough?
Thank you so much.
Then I'll leave the rest to you.
Excuse me.
Amemiya-san.
Yes.
I'll call.
Yes.
I see.
Well, for you, what a great achievement.
Yes.
This sweat is the proof
Sweat?
Sweat from my eyes, they don't stop!
Manager!
Manager! Manager!!
Here, here.
Don't rub your nose on my clothes.
Yes
Good for you.
I can finally graduate himono-onna.
Starting today, I'm an admirable girl.
Goodbye, my himono days.
Amemiya.
Yes.
I've always been thinking.
I, about you
Yes.
you
I cannot accept this part!
This, and this. The line on this table too.
I measured, and cannot accept that my space was 18mms shorter.
Sorry.
What graduate himono-onna?
What admirable girl.
What goodbye himono days.
Just saying I like you to the guy you like, do you think that's sufficient to stop being a himono-onna?
What?!
Sure I can.
My life from now onwards, will be fresh and full of energy, and I'm gonna be an excellent woman!
Haha. I could boil tea on my tummy.
Huh?! You said it. You definately have to do that.
You too. If you ever graduate being a himono-onna, you can get out of here.
Huh?
Okay to live by yourself in a fashionable apartment.
Okay to live with Teshima.
Huh?
Though the arrival of such a day is less possible than my boiling tea on my tummy.
It's not.
It's not impossible!
I'll work hard!
I'll graduate being a himono-onna, and will leave this house for sure!
Phone call!
Phone Phone!
[Teshima Makoto]
Hello?
I'll definately not let slip that you're living with me.
He does not realise your himono-ness.
-Sexy Daisakusen! (Project sexy)
Please work hard so it won't just be a short summer-love.
This is a punishment for not being in love for long.
-Manager!
Shall we go back?
This is my first, important love.
