Your Name Is? Part III Page #2

---

But this eye for an eye attitude

will only hurt the both of you.

It won't do Hamaguchi

any good either.

So, I took it upon myself

to mediate

and spoke to Hamaguchi.

Will you put yourself

in my hands?

I want you to come

to Kyushu with me.

You can stay at my house.

Or you can work.

Will you put yourself

under my supervision

and not see Mr. Atomiya

for a while?

Hamaguchi says he will

withdraw his suit then.

And he'll more rationally

consider the future.

Perhaps this is not

a satisfactory arrangement.

But Hamaguchi is

being obstinate.

I urge you to do so

and wait for the right time.

Perhaps Hamaguchi

will change.

Fighting it out in court

not lead to a solution

very easily.

Well, Machiko?

How about it?

Or do you want to keep

fighting in court?

I hear you're with your aunt.

Why don't you discuss it

with her?

Mr. Atomiya.

Machiko went to Kyushu,

without waiting for you

to come back.

She promised not to

see you for some time

in exchange for Hamaguchi

withdrawing the suit.

Machiko couldn't bear

the thought of

yon being dragged into court

because of her.

In any case, come back

to Tokyo soon.

Everyone's waiting.

I asked you to come here

to console you.

But Hokkaido just caused you

more heartache.

I'm really sorry.

No, it was me that caused

you all the trouble.

No problem.

Be well.

And come back to Hokkaido

with Machiko someday.

I'll be praying for that day.

Hokkaido just caused you

more heartache.

Kyushu

Unzen

Mr. Nagahashi is waiting

in the lobby.

Thank you.

Hello.

Mr. Nagahashi wants

to talk to you.

Please make yourself

at home.

- How's it going?

- I'm fine, thank you.

We need to talk.

Shall we take a walk?

I'll speak to the manager.

I received a letter from

Hamaguchi yesterday.

He said he will

give you a divorce.

However,

there's a huge condition.

He'll agree to it

only if you marry

any other man but

Haruki Atomiya.

Surprised?

It looks like Hamaguchi

is not rational concerning you.

He wasn't like that before.

He was earnest...

perhaps too earnest.

So when he went off

the deep end,

he couldn't

come up again.

This is a conundrum.

What will you do?

There's nothing I can do.

Mrs. Hamaguchi.

You're the guest

in room 201.

Don't refer to me like that.

- My name is Soejima.

- I'm sorry.

I'm kidding.

Isn't that man

you were talking to

the lieutenant governor

Mr. Nagahashi?

You know him?

I've met him on business

a couple of times.

What were you two

talking about?

It looked serious.

Am I right?

I sense you are

very unhappy.

Oh, sorry.

I've been thinking that

for some time.

And I've felt for you.

I'll go say hello

to Mr. Nagahashi.

Oh, Mrs. Hamaguchi?

I'd like to get to know you.

- Hiya!

- Are you leaving, Editor?

- What brings you here?

- I was passing by.

Is Mr. Atomiya here?

He has a guest.

How's business?

Good, thanks.

Please keep us in mind.

Thanks.

Atomiya will be jealous.

Don't joke.

Mr. Atomiya and I...

- You're not involved?

- No.

Then I'll be by

to seduce you.

- You don't mind?

- Not at all. I'll be waiting.

And when I do, you'll

give me the cold shoulder.

Oops, I almost forgot.

A present for my wife.

- May I sit down?

- Please.

Katsunori Hamaguchi

It may be

unacceptable to you,

but it's the best I can do.

So think about it

and give me an answer.

Good-bye.

Thanks for waiting.

I thought divorce

was simple these days.

But there are extenuating

circumstances.

I see.

I hear your former wife

was beautiful.

I'm apprehensive.

What's happened?

A mixed-race child was

run over.

What a bother.

I see. He said the same

thing to Machiko.

He's no gentleman.

Maybe you should just

marry me.

But that's not on.

Want to talk at my place?

Yes?

I'm Atomiya.

Oh, Asa.

What? Toshiki?

What?

The driver just left.

He didn't care because

the boy is mixed-race.

He said he'll send

money later,

like Toshiki wasn't human.

I see.

I feel so sorry for Kozue.

Mr. Kaseda.

How is he?

They just finished

operating.

Kozue.

This is awful.

Be strong.

Doctor?

Will he live?

If he gets through tonight.

We'll do all we can.

Thank you.

Doctor? Please.

I don't care if

he becomes disabled.

Please safe his life.

Doctor, please.

Please be quiet.

Why are we so

unfortunate?

We're all good people.

Mr. Atomiya?

You can see Sukiya Bridge

from here.

I wonder how

Machiko's doing.

Aya. I may be going

to Europe soon.

What?

The magazine wants

to send me as a reporter.

You're going to leave

Machiko like this?

When the wind blows...

When the wind blows

memories may change...

Colored by the neon...

Some may cry

but Sukiya Bridge

never changes.

Isn't this awesome?

This is Mt Unzen's

silver frost.

The fog on the

bare trees

freezes during the night.

Look, an ice forest,

and ice woods.

Ice branches...

It's like a dream.

Why is nature

so beautiful?

But, Mrs. Hamaguchi,

the reason humans

see nature as beautiful

is because they are

unhappy.

Aren't you in the

throes of unhappiness?

Mrs. Hamaguchi,

the reason I came

to Unzen

is to ask you to marry me.

Mr. Nagahashi has

told me all about you.

That you're having

a difficult time,

with your divorce

and about this man

Atomiya.

Machiko.

Your husband Hamaguchi

says that if you marry

anyone but Atomiya

he will agree

to divorce you.

That set me thinking.

I have to make you happy.

That's what I thought.

That's because from

the first time I saw you,

I knew you were the woman

I was looking for.

Machiko.

Will you marry me?

Of course, it can be

on paper in the beginning,

to make Hamaguchi

agree to a divorce.

You can do whatever

you like after that.

You can go marry Atomiya

or enter into

a real marriage with me.

Well? Does that

interest you?

The ice branches...

Then that's your

final answer?

Yes.

I see.

That's a problem.

What am I supposed to do?

I often think about this.

It all began because

I was sympathetic

to you and Machiko's plight.

I took Machiko to

look for you

from Sado to Tokyo

and even to Toba.

But we couldn't find you.

And because of that,

Machiko married me.

But I didn't force her.

It was Machiko

who suggested it,

on the beach at Wagu.

I was elated, so happy.

I couldn't believe it.

But you have to believe

your good fortune.

I told myself many times

that Machiko was mine.

And after a year, I was

confident of my happiness.

Then...

YOU appeared.

That was when

I was transferred to Tokyo.

What should I have done?

You and Machiko may think

I'm a despicable man.

But you two don't know

how I've suffered.

You don't know how I suffer

from my love for Machiko.

I was so miserable

caught between

you and Machiko

and Machiko and Mother.

Mr. Atomiya.

If you and Machiko

get together,

it would be a slap in my

face and my suffering.

Don't you think so?

Sometimes humiliation

is worse than death

for a man.

Mr. Hamaguchi.

It's not that I don't

understand how you feel.
