1351

01:
32:39,600 -- 01:32:43,149

It took four batches of noodles

to calm him down. [chuckling]

1352

01:
32:45,960 -- 01:32:48,030

Ah. Thank you, dear.

1353

01:
32:49,320 -- 01:32:52,232

Now tell me, how far did we get

into the Baron's story?

1354

01:
32:52,320 -- 01:32:55,710

You were a student in Germany

when you found the Baron in a caf.

1355

01:
32:55,840 -- 01:32:57,512

Ah, that's right.

1356

01:
32:58,880 -- 01:33:03,078

I was captivated by his expression.

It was so sad and mysterious.

1357

01:
33:03,200 -- 01:33:06,397

So I begged the owner of the caf

to let me buy the Baron.

1358

01:
33:06,520 -- 01:33:09,671

[Nishi] But he refused to sell it to me.

1359

01:
33:09,800 -- 01:33:14,032

He said the Baron had a female companion

who was away for repairs.

1360

01:
33:14,160 -- 01:33:16,230

The two of them made

such a beautiful couple

1361

01:
33:16,360 -- 01:33:18,555

he didn't think it was right

to separate them.

1362

01:
33:18,680 -- 01:33:23,310

I told him that as soon as the Baroness

was repaired, I'd buy them both.

1363

01:
33:23,400 -- 01:33:26,790

The Baroness, her name

was Louise, isn't that right?

1364

01:
33:26,880 -- 01:33:29,872

No one knows this,

but Louise was the name

1365

01:
33:30,000 -- 01:33:32,389

of a woman I went to school with.

1366

01:
33:32,480 -- 01:33:34,391

She and I became very close,

1367

01:
33:34,520 -- 01:33:38,308

and every day we'd meet at the caf

to see if the Baroness had returned.

1368

01:
33:39,120 -- 01:33:42,430

Louise pleaded with the caf owner

to sell me the Baron.

1369

01:
33:42,560 -- 01:33:45,279

She promised to buy the Baroness

and hold onto her

1370

01:
33:45,360 -- 01:33:47,874

until the two statues could be reunited.

1371

01:
33:48,000 -- 01:33:50,560

Finally the caf owner agreed,

1372

01:
33:50,680 -- 01:33:52,910

and I left for Japan with the Baron.

1373

01:
33:53,040 -- 01:33:57,238

I promised Louise that I would return

to Germany as soon as possible,

1374

01:
33:57,320 -- 01:34:01,472

and I vowed that when the Baron

and Baroness were reunited,

1375

01:
34:01,600 -- 01:34:03,113

so would we be.

1376

01:
34:06,040 -- 01:34:08,634

But the war began

soon after my departure

1377

01:
34:08,720 -- 01:34:12,679

and I wasn't able to return to Germany

until many years later.

1378

01:
34:14,840 -- 01:34:17,593

I visited our caf and I searched

all over Germany

1379

01:
34:17,680 -- 01:34:19,557

but I could find no trace of her.

1380

01:
34:21,320 -- 01:34:24,835

I never saw Louise

or the Baroness again.

1381

01:
34:26,520 -- 01:34:30,069

I'm sorry. So that's why you never

want to talk about the Baron.

1382

01:
34:30,160 -- 01:34:33,152

But you've done something

wonderful for me, Shizuku.

1383

01:
34:33,240 -- 01:34:37,233

What was only a memory for me has

gained new life thanks to your story.

1384

01:
34:37,360 -- 01:34:39,191

Oh, that reminds me.

1385

01:
34:46,640 -- 01:34:48,870

Now hold out your hands.

1386

01:
34:54,640 -- 01:34:55,755

But I...

1387

01:
34:55,840 -- 01:34:58,559

That geode suits you better than me.

1388

01:
34:58,680 -- 01:35:00,079

I want you to have it.

1389

01:
35:01,280 -- 01:35:04,272

Promise me you'll polish

your story well.

1390

01:
35:04,360 -- 01:35:07,158

I will. [sniffling]

1391

01:
35:19,920 -- 01:35:21,638

Thanks for everything, Mr. Nishi.

1392

01:
35:21,760 -- 01:35:23,193

My pleasure.

1393

01:
35:25,800 -- 01:35:27,392

See you later.

1394

01:
35:35,360 -- 01:35:37,237

[Door opening]

1395

01:
35:37,320 -- 01:35:39,595

- [Shizuku] Anyone home?

- I'm in here.

1396

01:
35:42,240 -- 01:35:43,912

Is Dad around?

1397

01:
35:44,040 -- 01:35:45,268

He's in the bathtub.

1398

01:
35:45,400 -- 01:35:47,470

Do you know what time it is,

young lady?

1399

01:
35:47,560 -- 01:35:49,437

I'd like to make a formal announcement.

1400

01:
35:49,520 -- 01:35:51,750

I've decided that I want

to attend high school.

1401

01:
35:51,880 -- 01:35:53,950

- I'll start studying tomorrow.

- Really?

1402

01:
35:54,080 -- 01:35:56,719

Does that mean you've already

finished your project?

1403

01:
35:56,800 -- 01:35:58,358

For the time being.

1404

01:
35:59,600 -- 01:36:01,909

Do you want dinner? I made curry.

1405

01:
36:02,000 -- 01:36:03,877

[Shizuku] No, thanks.

1406

01:
36:04,000 -- 01:36:06,434

[Sighing] For the time being, huh?

1407

01:
36:06,560 -- 01:36:08,437

[Chuckling]

1408

01:
36:13,280 -- 01:36:15,589

[Sighing]

1409

01:
36:15,680 -- 01:36:18,319

[Dad] Shizuku, the bathroom's free

if you want it.

1410

01:
36:24,280 -- 01:36:27,829

[Deep breathing]

1411

01:
36:37,040 -- 01:36:39,554

Look at her, my little warrior.

1412

01:
36:42,000 -- 01:36:43,513

Let's see.

1413

01:
36:49,880 -- 01:36:51,518

[Dad] Sweet dreams.

1414

01:
36:52,320 -- 01:36:53,878

[Closing door]

1415

01:
37:07,280 -- 01:37:08,872

Huh?

1416

01:
37:28,480 -- 01:37:30,038

[Sighing]

1417

01:
37:30,760 -- 01:37:32,159

[Shuddering]

1418

01:
37:43,720 -- 01:37:44,948

Seiji?

1419

01:
37:52,120 -- 01:37:53,997

Yeah. Just a second.

1420

01:
37:54,840 -- 01:37:57,400

[Rattling]

1421

01:
38:08,160 -- 01:38:10,549

I can't believe this.

You were actually awake.

1422

01:
38:10,680 -- 01:38:12,079

This isn't a dream, is it?

1423

01:
38:12,200 -- 01:38:15,510

No. I came back from Italy

a day early. Get on.

1424

01:
38:15,600 -- 01:38:17,352

Oh, wait a minute.

1425

01:
38:17,440 -- 01:38:19,158

You'll be cold like that.

1426

01:
38:21,480 -- 01:38:23,391

OK, hop on.

1427

01:
38:23,520 -- 01:38:27,308

- You'll be cold. I'll get a jacket.

- There's not enough time. Let's go.

1428

01:
38:29,240 -- 01:38:31,117

All right, hold on tight now.

1429

01:
38:36,360 -- 01:38:38,635

[Seiji] I wanted to see you

as soon as I got home,

1430

01:
38:38,720 -- 01:38:42,030

so I stood outside your window

hoping you'd look outside and see me.

1431

01:
38:42,160 -- 01:38:45,197

Suddenly you were standing there.

I couldn't believe my eyes.

1432

01:
38:45,320 -- 01:38:47,356

We must be meant

for each other, Shizuku.

1433

01:
38:47,440 -- 01:38:49,396

I still can't believe I'm not dreaming.

1434

01:
38:49,480 -- 01:38:51,630

Who cares? This is a great dream.

1435

01:
38:51,760 -- 01:38:53,239

[Horn beeping]

1436

01:
38:56,560 -- 01:38:58,312

How did things go in Italy?

1437

01:
38:58,400 -- 01:39:01,039

[Seiji] My master said

I'm not great yet, but I could be.

1438

01:
39:01,160 -- 01:39:03,151

I've decided to finish

high school first,

1439

01:
39:03,280 -- 01:39:04,679

then I'll go back to Cremona.

1440

01:
39:13,040 -- 01:39:15,270

- Should I get off?

- No. Stay on.

1441

01:
39:15,360 -- 01:39:19,512

I decided I was going

to ride up this steep hill

1442

01:
39:19,640 -- 01:39:21,392

carrying you with me. [panting]

1443

01:
39:21,520 -- 01:39:23,033

Who said you could decide that?

1444

01:
39:23,160 -- 01:39:25,151

[Panting]

1445

01:
39:25,280 -- 01:39:27,555
