Good for Nothing Page #5

---

sometimes I get a little sad.

Why do you take such an interest in me?

Why indeed...

Probably because

you're a good for nothing.

Hey, could you give me a hand?

What are you doing? Idiot!

You thought that would make me happy?

What are you laughing about?

I just remembered that you're a wolf.

A wolf?

An irresponsible wolf.

Who only knows how to bark and howl.

I knew that one day you would bite me.

You're leaving?

Remember you start

your job tomorrow, okay?

Makino, if you don't mind,

I'd like to invite you over today.

That's too bad. I'll be busy.

Really?

- You have something to celebrate?

- Why?

That's usually the case

whenever you invite me.

If so, shouldn't you go home early?

For Toshio.

Are you afraid for him?

I'm not afraid.

At his age, everyone acts like a rebel.

He doesn't care what I say.

That's no reason

to just leave him alone.

Actually, don't you

think he feels abandoned?

Maybe.

But I don't think he would

do anything that goes too far.

Maybe that's a presumption on my part.

I think you're taking this

a bit too lightly.

However, at no time in history have men

been able to do whatever they want.

Same for Toshio.

When he understands that, he'll return.

Like the return of the prodigal son.

Still working?

I'll be waiting outside.

That job looks pretty boring.

When I saw you,

I felt a little sorry for you.

But it's better than

lying around all day.

It helps to say that.

Don't you worry about me.

Worry?

I have no intention to do so.

That's good.

I prefer to be left alone.

I see. You don't want a

woman involved in your business.

- You're back?

- I just left this morning.

The beach was deserted.

My dad's your boss now, huh?

- That's nice for you.

- It's also nice to be working.

Certainly, but it's too soon for

me to live the life of a salaryman.

Jun, let's split.

You're going?

Do you want to go?

I don't want to be tied to anyone.

She just watched you leave.

Is that okay?

- I don't care.

- Don't care?

Figures. Now where do we go?

Anywhere. As long as it's exciting.

Oh, there you are.

When I called,

they told me you had left.

I had a feeling you'd come back.

I have to talk to you.

Coming from you, I expect the worst.

It's not what you think.

I'm tired of these stupid games.

Just relax.

I'm sick of it all.

The desire to watch

the sea's horizon everyday.

That's all I understand.

All that remains is suicide then.

Yeah, if I had a gun.

I have a gun.

Wanna buy it?

You've always wanted one, right?

For real?

My friend here...

would be happy to sell it.

I'll show you over there.

See? It's good. Buy it.

- Is it loaded?

- No.

It's no good if it's not loaded.

This isn't a toy.

I don't think you can handle it.

If you're really interested,

I have bullets too.

I'll buy it. How much?

Here's your share.

Don't do anything stupid with it.

No nonsense.

This gun has a criminal record.

Shoot yourself in the

head if you want, that's all.

Jun, can you do it?

Your first-rate acting

will be much stronger now.

You were right.

I'm just a good for nothing...

But don't cry when you hear of my death.

I don't want you to cry...

I love you... I love you.

I did something stupid...

And now...

Enough of this stupid nonsense!

That's how you end your romantic scene?

Jun, are you in love?

I see. You slept with her.

You're wrong.

How awkward!

You're the only one still working.

- Too much to do.

- You want me to help?

- No.

- I'll help.

Afterwards, you wanna go see a movie?

There's a great Western out.

Let's go!

I'll be waiting outside.

That's the boss' secretary.

How do you know her?

I could go for a movie.

Really? You want to?

Good! Let's finish quickly.

You wanna go out?

It looks like the prodigal son's friend

has found work here?

- You look bothered.

- I won't let you...

Don't get upset.

I say this because I'm happy.

You and I are very much alike.

We flirt to relieve boredom.

- You'll go out with me some day.

- Not on your life.

I thought you'd never come.

Aren't you ashamed?

Always following Toshio around.

I told you to leave me alone.

Out of the question!

Thanks for waiting.

Let's go.

Wait. I have something to tell you.

- Go on ahead.

- You'll meet me soon?

You're really impossible.

I'm a rascal. You should know.

I know. I know that too well.

But I beg you.

No affairs with the office girls.

You won't do that.

You won't, right?

I'm quitting tomorrow.

Why don't you want to listen?

Come in!

You're hard to find.

Why didn't you come to work?

I told you I quit.

What for?

Stop already.

I don't have to give you my reasons.

That's so like you.

But even so,

when I see you, I forget everything.

Well that's your problem.

When I came here looking for you,

I had plenty of things to say to you.

But then I thought

it would serve no purpose.

Me too, I wanted to

tell you something the other day.

Weren't you in the process of

telling me about your past?

What past?

For me, it was just a bit of fun...

Nothing but a bit of fun.

And I thought you were bored.

- So I comforted you, that's all.

- Don't say that.

Listen to me. I don't want

any misunderstanding between us.

Did you think

we were made for each other?

Not at all. I don't understand

why you don't see that.

Why are you telling me this?

I have no intention of

boring you with what happened.

- It was my idea from the start.

- Then what's the problem?

That's not what I wanted to tell you.

You think you're a good for nothing,

but actually you're just weak.

You cheat yourself,

thinking you're clever.

Is that how you want to live your life?

It's not just me.

Everyone is a cheater.

I had thought that

maybe you were different.

But you're a coward!

- Spare me your whining.

- I'm not whining!

You are!

And I don't like you following me!

- I don't follow you!

- Then why are you here?

Akiyama rightly said

that you were reduced to...

chasing after a young man.

You're going?

Then go,

after hearing what I have to say!

Ikuko locked herself

in her room without eating.

Think she's okay?

Must be the heat.

It's too hot this summer.

Still, she didn't want to talk to me...

Think something happened at work?

A case of hysteria, it'll pass.

Oh, "hysteria" might work...

Good evening.

You know some strange places.

- Who brought you here?

- What does it matter?

Mizuwari please. And you?

I'll have the same.

It's whiskey. Do you drink?

Why wouldn't I drink?

- Something happened to you.

- It's nothing.

Today, it was you who asked me out.

Something must have happened.

Yes. My only excuse

is that I was bored.

If that bothers you, you can leave.

Bother me?

It's an honor.

But I don't get it.

The tricky broad has suddenly changed.

It's surprising.

A little.

I'm an ordinary woman.

Sometimes I want a man.

What? Don't look at me like that!

I like you.

Let's toast to our united boredom.

What a surprise to see you here.

How so?

I just came to witness your debauchery.
