Paper Planes Page #5

She was a piano teacher.

What happened?

Uh, a car accident.

Oh. That sucks.

Yeah. Badly.

So your dad didn't come

because of work?

Well, my...my dad hasn't done

a lot of work since the accident.

Yeah, well...well, he hasn't

really done a lot of anything.

At all.

Thank you.

That's amazing.

I should have just let it be.

I sh...

I shouldn't have

said anything to Jason.

That guy's a bully.

You did the right thing.

Yeah, but is it...

is it worth losing for?

Winning and losing

doesn't matter.

- Come on.

- It doesn't.

It's about making something beautiful,

and surprising.

Like your book.

Look, I know

what you're saying,

but you still want to win, right?

If you have to ask me,

then you haven't been listening

and don't know me at all.

Sorry?

You're going?

What?

What happened?

Dear Mother,

it's been so long

Since I had to say goodbye

They say time flies

but I must say

Sometimes it just crawled by

I still think about you

every day

I hope that comes

as no surprise

How I would love

to see you now

What I wouldn't give

But life did not bend

to my wishes

And so I had to

learn to live...

Hey.

It's Dylan, right?

Yeah. Yeah.

Think you're gonna

win tomorrow?

I don't know.

But I really, really want to.

Yeah? Why is that?

Well... You know,

everyone loves a winner. Right?

And if...if I go home a winner,

maybe my dad...

..might want to

hang out with me.

Well, you know what?

He's family, mate. And sometimes...

Sometimes they take a little while

to come good.

But, uh,

if you stick with them,

they will, eventually.

Well, I hope you're right.

Thanks, Mr. Jones.

Dear Mother,

I know I'm not the only one

Who had someone taken away

too young

Still, that doesn't make it

feel alright

To not have had you then

and still not have you now

I still think about you

every day

I hope that comes

as no surprise...

Hi, Dad.

How's everything going?

Hopefully good. Um...

Tokyo's great.

Well, in fact, it's amazing.

Uh, today, I learnt

all about making paper

in the ancient gardens.

That was pretty cool.

Well, the finals

start tomorrow.

Pretty nervous.

Been working on my planes.

Um... Yeah, everything's great.

Uh... Oh. I sprained my wrist,

which is...bit of a bummer.

But it's feeling better

thanks to the help of acupuncture,

which was pretty good,

but, um...

Yep. I've been having

the most amazing time.

It's really fun. Hopefully,

we come back here some day.

And...

I wanted...I wanted

to say to you that I'm...

..I'm going

to stick with you...

..for as...

for as long as it takes.

Yeah.

Hope you got that. Um...

Yeah. Well, I'll...

see you soon.

Wish me luck.

Um... Love you, Dad. 'Bye.
