Laugh at My Pain Page #2

---

Sorry, I didn't send

anybody any this year.

I just wanted to send you one.

How's Mirume?

Haven't see him at all.

He's been cooped up at home.

He hasn't heard from Yuri.

Apparently she's not in Tokyo.

I don't care.

Mirume's so weak.

You're strong.

No, everybody's weak. So...

"There's no point," right?

Right.

See you, then.

"Live from Suzumoto Engei

Theater:
New Marionette"

Oh, my.

What are you doing here?

These rice crackers are good.

Have some, Mirume. Eat.

Why are you hurt?

If you want to see

her, just go see her.

I saw.

Saw what?

Yuri.

Mirume?

Hello.

Those artists who

are displaying...

Yes?

May we talk to them?

Oh sure.

Listen, my parents came

over yesterday to my place.

They were in a

rock-paper-scissors match.

Your parents were?

And they won 100,000 yen.

What? I don't get it.

They won a meal ticket.

You played a game

together and they won cash?

No, no.

I don't...

Um, excuse us.

We're Sayuri's students.

Do you know where she is?

Sayuri?

We can't contact her.

Oh, you mean Yuri. She came back

from Tokyo and said she was traveling.

Where was it? Um... somewhere in

India... That guy with fuzzy hair...

What was his name? I forget.

Have you tried calling her?

Yes, but I can't reach her.

Oh! Sai Baba!

Sai Baba?

Yeah, Sai Baba. That

reincarnated guru from Tibet.

You're thinking

of the Dalai Lama.

Here.

I lied about seeing Yuri.

You're spilling it.

Oh, Mii.

Good girl. Is it good?

Is he all right?

There's a hotel up ahead.

See, over there. There.

See it?

Yes, thank you.

Mirume.

Need help?

Yes, please. Thank you.

Okay, up you go.

One, two...

Are we going?

Yes, we're going.

You're going. Take care.

Thank you.

Yes, come again.

Thank you.

Sure. Oh, sorry. Are you okay?

I can walk.

No you can't.

Thanks a lot.

Take care.

Oh, no.

My body's moving by itself.

How romantic.

Yuri.

Hello?

Hello?

Yuri?

Ow am I? Where are you?

How are you. Mirume?

How am I? Where are you?

I'm sorry. Things have happened.

And I don't feel like explaining.

You don't feel like it?

I'm in India.

India? Alone?

No. With Mr. Inokuma. Things

happened. And I wanted to be alone.

But if you're with Mr.

Inokuma. Then you're not alone.

What? I can't hear you.

Bad connection...

Are there rocket firecrackers?

Huh?

Rocket-type firecrackers.

I've got the firecrackers.

No, I mean the rockets.

Rockets? Yes, I guess so.

It's written on

the package, right?

You're right.

Which ones are they?

Wow.

Let's have a war. A war.

A war?

With firecrackers.

No, it's dangerous.

You saw the balloon, right?

Yeah, I was still here.

When we inflated it and it

stood up, it was... how big?

How many meters was it?

Meters?

It was pretty big.

Yeah. Up to there, maybe?

Around there?

It was pretty big.

Above the second floor.

We put too much air inside and a gust

blew, so we all pulled on the ropes.

And they got

tangled on branches.

That's dangerous.

And the top rope fell off.

The top?

The top got stuck up there.

Where?

Up there.

Huh?

What?

I was afraid I might

not see you again.

What? Is that why?

Yeah.

Are you stupid?

No, I'm not.

What, are you shy?

I'm not shy.

Why are you shy?

I'm not shy. I

can't believe this.

So up there... Look, I won't

do it anymore. I swear I won't.

Don't do it.

I really won't do it.

I'll get angry.

Yes, I apologize.

What, are you shy?

I'm not shy. Why would I be...

What? Are you okay?

I can't believe

this. You shocked me.

Sheesh.

Let's hold hands.

Whoa.

"Just because you can't see each

other doesn't mean it's over. "
