There's just one and only one thing

Director Fukuoka Toshitake

I love you.

Me, too.

I've loved you, too.

Always...

"I've loved you, too"...

...was "I love you, too"...

...so that was fine.

The sound of Suo-san's heart was like that from a quickly beating sewing machine.

I felt it was a good match for mine.

Who is it?

It was Kitamura-san.

Kitamura-san?!

I saw him there just now.

His face...

...was it angry?

Ah... well.

What should we do...

We've done a bad thing.

He would get angry, wouldn't he?

It's his important opening day...

Where are you going?

To the store. To apologize.

Well, Ohara-san isn't the one who should go.

Why?

Well, that's...

Well anyhow, I'll apologize to him.

I'm home.

Welcome back.

You...

What is it?

You're so pretty somehow.

Did something happen?

Nothing happened.

It just appears I put on a little more makeup today than usual.

Ala...?

What's wrong? You're wearing Western clothes...

I run a Western clothing store...

...so it's about time I started wearing them, isn't it?

Still, this is great. Sensei looks good in Western clothes.

Eh?

I've always thought Sensei should be wearing Western clothes to show off this store, too!

Really?

This is great.

You look stylish.

I do?

When I was a child, I learned from others how to sew appappas.

Ever since, I felt I wanted to sew my own clothing.

Ahh!

Ala, did you forget anything?

Wait! Ma'am, please take a look at this!

Kyaa! Pretty, isn't it?

Ehh... Your Mom made this.

Ehh! It's pretty!

Pretty, huh? Incredible!

So pretty!

Wait Sensei, this is really good!

That's right. Put it on the mannequin in the store front.

Eh?

Even so Sensei, didn't you sew this for yourself?

I did intend to, but I thought better of it later.

I can make one again later.

Ehh...

So long; you guys get going.

We're off!

We're off!

Yes! Get going.

Mom, buy a piano.

Buy one.

Buy one.

Buy one.

Buy one.

Yes, yes, yes, yes... Get going already.

Get going.

Be careful.

We're off!

We're off!

Get going. Don't run!

I can't buy one though...

Ever since hearing about Suo-san's feelings...

...my heart was all astir...

I wanted to make one piece of clothing after another.

After that, I was sewing one new dress after the next, night after night.

Senshū Textile Trade Union

Showa 23 (1948) May

Oh...

Ohhh!

Oh! Oh, oh!

Good afternoon.

About what I called for you today.

Yes.

Well, for the time being I've heard about it from both Kitamura-san and Suo-san...

...and so I thought it only fair to hear your side of it...

Do you know about the rumor?

Rumor?

You don't know?

Well...

The rumor is that you and Suo teamed up to take money away from Kitamura.

The Union just couldn't stand for that.

Huh?

Suo was fired by Kitamura.

Fired?!

Is that true?

Yeah.

Moreover, once that rumor started getting around...

...there wasn't any place that would hire Suo any longer.

So then I said, "I'll have you work at my factory"...

...but he said, "I would just cause you trouble"...

So right now that guy is...

He's working as a day laborer.

Ah... Why would such a rumor...

Who could have...?

Was it Kitamura-san?

Kitamura said, "It's the truth," so...

What has that man done...!

Well...

...I felt Kitamura was wrong...

...but I think he feels what he has to say about Suo is the truth.

However, Kitamura being Kitamura...

Somehow, I pity him for having to make such a story...

I think I've done an inexcusable thing.

Huh?

On his important grand opening day, I think he may have seen me and his work partner...

...doing something selfish.

But I'm the one in the wrong.

I'm the only one he should be saying foolish things about...

Such a thing...

There's indeed an answer for what Kitamura has done.

Huh?

He's fallen in love with you.

Huh?!

Ah...

How pitiful.

I then heard what Suo had to say, too.

Yes.

As you know, he's a man with a wife and kids.

Yes.

Well...

...what went on between you and him was just normal playing around...

...and there's nothing I can say between that.

Even so, from what I've seen, he doesn't have an irresponsible quality to him.

But then, well...

...I became boorish when he admitted to it.

"What are you going to do?"

"This is a small world."

"Don't foolishly have such halfway feelings!"

I preached at him a little.

And then the other day he said...

What was it he said?

Well...

Whether it's best to tell you this...

Is it better that I don't hear it?

I'm not sure if it would be good...

...or if it'd be bad.

What should I do...

Which is best?

Well... Even if you ask me that...

Well...

Even so, please tell me.

That guy...

AHH!

Please wait a minute.

Go ahead.

He...

Yes.

He seriously loves you.

Even so...

...there's just no way he could separate from his wife right now.

This... You may not know this...

...but that guy's wife has after-effects from the atomic bombing on Nagasaki.

So he told me...

"I will be shouldering her my entire life..."

"...and I don't think there's anything else I can do but deal with that."

Even so...

How do I put this...

During those times when his burdens become too heavy to bear...

...he'll always be remembering you.

What the...

I'm glad I heard this...

Really?

I'm sorry about this...

...but I feel relieved at having told you.

How cruel...

I said some unnecessary things, didn't I?

No.

Yeah. Still, don't worry about Suo.

I definitely won't let him starve to death.

Yes.

Please take care of him.

I say that, but...

I'm sixty this year.

Ah.

It's absolutely useless for people to stray from their paths. I've lived, thinking that.

Can't they stray even once?

Even so...

...I can't declare that definitively.

Have you ever strayed?

Hmm... Somehow or other...

...after I had remained on it...

Ah, and I thought there was nothing I could do but stray...

...but in the end...

Ah...
