Becoming a farmer's wife. I never imagined that before...
:47:27
Yet the fact it's possible for me to live in such a manner was enough
to give a strange impression.
:47:35
``If you don't mind...'' Just like in some movie I'd seen before. How
wonderful it would be if I could speak with such an open heart.
:47:45
But I couldn't.
:47:48
My vague belief that I love the country, and my playing at work in the
fields made me have a guilty conscience all at once.
:47:58
I was ashamed of myself, always saying ``what a nice place'' without
knowing hard winters or the reality of farming.
:48:09
I wasn't prepared for anything. And everyone knew this from the
start.
:48:18
I felt too awkward to stay.
:48:29
I'm not gonna shake hands with you.
:48:35
Hey, hey, the shirt Abe-kun's wearing today--
:48:39
What, what?
:48:39
It's the exact same one Tanaka-kun wore when he was in the fourth
grade.
:48:42
Wha....?
:48:42
Keep it secret.
:48:45
You know what? When its Abe-kun's [Abe's] turn to feed the ducks, he
takes the bread crumbs home for food.
:48:51
Say what? Have you seen Abe-kun's palms? Incredible!
:48:55
I'm sure glad my seat's not near him.
:48:58
I feel sorry for you, Taeko-chan [Taeko].
