Whisper of the Heart Page #14

You work so hard in the library.

1257

01:
24:31,160 -- 01:24:33,628

Whatever you're doing,

I know it's important to you.

1258

01:
24:33,760 -- 01:24:36,479

And I truly respect that.

1259

01:
24:36,560 -- 01:24:40,678

Honey, why don't we let Shizuku

do what she thinks is best?

1260

01:
24:40,760 -- 01:24:43,115

Not everyone needs

to follow the same path.

1261

01:
24:43,240 -- 01:24:44,275

[Mom] Hmm.

1262

01:
24:44,400 -- 01:24:48,757

Well, I have to admit I've often dreamed

about straying from the path myself.

1263

01:
24:50,400 -- 01:24:54,632

All right, Shizuku, go ahead

and do what your heart tells you.

1264

01:
24:54,720 -- 01:24:58,713

But it's never easy when you do

things differently from everyone else.

1265

01:
24:58,800 -- 01:25:03,510

If things don't go well,

you'll only have yourself to blame.

1266

01:
25:03,600 -- 01:25:06,637

And I want you to eat meals with us,

no matter how busy you get.

1267

01:
25:06,720 -- 01:25:09,029

That's right.

We like to see you once in a while.

1268

01:
25:09,160 -- 01:25:11,720

- OK.

- Tell your sister we're finished.

1269

01:
25:14,560 -- 01:25:16,471

I'll make us some tea.

1270

01:
25:19,040 -- 01:25:21,395

[Shiho] Hey, Shizuku.

1271

01:
25:21,520 -- 01:25:23,238

Dad let you have your own way,

1272

01:
25:23,360 -- 01:25:26,113

but he wants you to study

and get into a good high school.

1273

01:
25:26,200 -- 01:25:28,998

I know that.

It was written all over his face.

1274

01:
25:29,080 -- 01:25:32,789

By the way,

I'm gonna be moving out next Sunday.

1275

01:
25:32,920 -- 01:25:34,751

You'll have the room to yourself.

1276

01:
25:34,880 -- 01:25:37,075

You're moving out? I didn't know that.

1277

01:
25:37,160 -- 01:25:39,628

[Shiho] Yep.

You're gonna be on your own now.

1278

01:
25:47,000 -- 01:25:49,275

[Panting]

1279

01:
25:49,400 -- 01:25:54,110

[Baron] Hurry! Faster! Faster!

1280

01:
25:54,200 -- 01:25:56,998

Only one stone is genuine.

1281

01:
25:57,080 -- 01:25:59,150

Which one? Which one is real?

1282

01:
25:59,280 -- 01:26:01,032

[Baron] You are on your own now.

1283

01:
26:01,120 -- 01:26:04,112

You must make the choice yourself.

1284

01:
26:04,240 -- 01:26:05,468

Hurry!

1285

01:
26:07,120 -- 01:26:08,394

[Gasping]

1286

01:
26:21,600 -- 01:26:23,636

[Shizuku screaming]

1287

01:
26:54,880 -- 01:26:56,108

[Blowing]

1288

01:
27:16,520 -- 01:27:18,670

[Snoring]

1289

01:
27:23,320 -- 01:27:25,675

[Creaking]

1290

01:
27:38,160 -- 01:27:40,993

Louise, you've come back to me.

1291

01:
27:41,080 -- 01:27:45,153

I'm sorry I've grown old.

I didn't know you'd return.

1292

01:
27:49,560 -- 01:27:51,039

[Thump]

1293

01:
27:55,240 -- 01:27:58,437

[Sighing]

1294

01:
27:59,640 -- 01:28:01,790

[Creaking]

1295

01:
28:09,080 -- 01:28:12,072

Shizuku. Please, come on in.

1296

01:
28:12,200 -- 01:28:15,715

I was just taking a nap.

1297

01:
28:15,800 -- 01:28:18,075

Did I wake you? I'm sorry.

1298

01:
28:18,200 -- 01:28:21,237

I hate to bother you, Mr. Nishi,

but my story's finished.

1299

01:
28:22,880 -- 01:28:25,155

Ooh, wonderful.

1300

01:
28:25,240 -- 01:28:27,549

Oh, you should be very proud.

1301

01:
28:28,680 -- 01:28:32,195

Well, here it is. You're the first one

to read it, just as promised.

1302

01:
28:32,320 -- 01:28:34,072

Well, this is a good-sized novel.

1303

01:
28:34,160 -- 01:28:37,516

iWhisper of the Heart/i

by Shizuku Tsukishima.

1304

01:
28:37,600 -- 01:28:40,273

I know it's a bit long,

but could you read it right away?

1305

01:
28:40,360 -- 01:28:42,316

I'll just wait here, if you don't mind.

1306

01:
28:42,400 -- 01:28:45,153

I could, but you've

put so much into this.

1307

01:
28:45,280 -- 01:28:47,589

Shouldn't I take my time

and read it carefully?

1308

01:
28:47,680 -- 01:28:50,274

I'd rather you read it now,

'cause I'm kind of nervous.

1309

01:
28:50,400 -- 01:28:52,994

You don't have to read it all,

just a few pages.

1310

01:
28:53,080 -- 01:28:56,436

And then...

then if it's boring you can quit.

1311

01:
28:56,520 -- 01:28:59,080

I understand. I'll read it right away.

1312

01:
28:59,200 -- 01:29:02,431

Have a seat by the fire.

It's getting cold.

1313

01:
29:07,000 -- 01:29:10,197

There. Now no one will disturb us.

1314

01:
29:13,760 -- 01:29:16,991

Uh, would it be OK with you

if I wait downstairs?

1315

01:
29:17,080 -- 01:29:18,638

- Hmm?

- I won't get cold.

1316

01:
29:18,720 -- 01:29:20,153

I'd rather not watch you read.

1317

01:
29:21,960 -- 01:29:25,430

Hmm. That'll be fine. Go ahead.

1318

01:
30:17,280 -- 01:30:20,113

[Jets roaring]

1319

01:
30:28,240 -- 01:30:30,310

[Door opening]

1320

01:
30:35,240 -- 01:30:37,117

So, there you are.

1321

01:
30:37,240 -- 01:30:39,629

I finished your book, Shizuku.

1322

01:
30:41,280 -- 01:30:44,078

Thank you, dear.

It was really wonderful.

1323

01:
30:44,160 -- 01:30:45,673

No, it's not! It's a mess.

1324

01:
30:45,800 -- 01:30:47,631

The storyline goes all over the place.

1325

01:
30:47,760 -- 01:30:49,876

All the characters' dialogue

sounds corny.

1326

01:
30:49,960 -- 01:30:52,952

You have to tell me the truth.

I know it's a complete disaster.

1327

01:
30:53,040 -- 01:30:57,079

No. It's just a bit rough, dear,

like Seiji's violin.

1328

01:
30:57,200 -- 01:30:59,350

What I read was raw and heartfelt.

1329

01:
31:01,560 -- 01:31:03,835

You should be very proud

for all your hard work.

1330

01:
31:03,960 -- 01:31:07,236

You've dug inside your soul

and found some real gems.

1331

01:
31:07,360 -- 01:31:11,114

Next you'll need to polish it,

which will also take a lot of work.

1332

01:
31:12,720 -- 01:31:16,679

There's no need to be upset.

Just have a little patience.

1333

01:
31:16,800 -- 01:31:19,360

[Sobbing]

1334

01:
31:40,360 -- 01:31:43,557

Now let's go inside. It's cold out here.

1335

01:
31:43,640 -- 01:31:45,278

OK. [sniffling]

1336

01:
31:45,360 -- 01:31:48,591

I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't be crying.

1337

01:
31:48,720 -- 01:31:51,280

I wanted so badly to do a good job,

1338

01:
31:51,400 -- 01:31:54,949

but there's so much that I don't know

about writing. [sobbing]

1339

01:
31:55,040 -- 01:31:59,318

And Seiji, he's so much

more accomplished than I am.

1340

01:
31:59,440 -- 01:32:01,795

[Sniffling] I can never catch up.

1341

01:
32:01,880 -- 01:32:03,996

I can never be good enough.

1342

01:
32:04,120 -- 01:32:05,997

[Crying]

1343

01:
32:06,120 -- 01:32:09,078

I see. You must be very fond of Seiji.

1344

01:
32:13,120 -- 01:32:14,997

[Shizuku slurping]

1345

01:
32:22,320 -- 01:32:24,276

[Sniffling]

1346

01:
32:25,360 -- 01:32:27,271

[Blowing]

1347

01:
32:28,440 -- 01:32:30,271

How do you like your noodles, hmm?

1348

01:
32:30,360 -- 01:32:32,874

[Sniffling] I like them a lot.

1349

01:
32:34,360 -- 01:32:36,999

When Seiji finished making

his very first violin,

1350

01:
32:37,080 -- 01:32:39,514

he was far more upset

than you are today.
