Chiyo is my new protoge
as lovely as her big sister,

:49:13
And with eyes the colour of rain.
:49:18
the baron is a very special man to me, my “Danina,”
someday if you are fortunate, you will have a patron too.

:49:29
Don't kneel, you aren't a servant girl anymore.
:49:40
Step into the light.
:49:52
I see water in you.
Does that displease you?

:49:54
Water is powerful.
It can wash away earth, put out fire, and even destroy iron.

:49:57
But you have not drawn on those strengths have you?
About your kimono....

:50:04
You may apologise if you wish.
:50:10
Why that is a perfect bow, for a pig farmer...
:50:14
Don't drop your head, fingertips together, elbows in,
no weight on the hands.

:50:23
As for the kimono, I’m no fool Chiyo.
:50:27
Hatsumomo cannot tolerate competition
she is jealous of you....

:50:31
Not me I'm afraid, someone closer to home.
:50:42
Rise. Not like a horse.
:50:50
Slide your foot forward.
:50:53
That's it. Now walk.
You are a magnificent Geisha.

:50:59
Tell me Chiyo, does Mrs. Nita ever speak of the future?
