A rumor?

About Sensei and...

...Suo-san?

Coffee Shop

Taiko

I was told that...

...Sensei and Suo-san had teamed together to deceive Kitamura-san...

...and that Suo-san had been banished from the Union and so Sensei took him in.

Ah.

I'd have to be a complete fool to believe such a thing.

There's no reason for Sensei and Suo-san...

...to trick Kitamura-san for money.

I'm always around both of you.

I guess.

Still...

...it's certain that Suo-san did come to work for us all of a sudden.

You didn't listen to anything I or Masa-chan had to say about it...

...and you decided it all on your own.

Sensei.

I really like Ohara Western Clothing store.

I respect you.

Masa-chan and all the other girls at the store do, too.

I think we're really proud of the store.

Please don't bring something disgusting into it!

Disgusting...

Suo-san...

...is a good man.

It may not be possible not to fall in love him.

But...

...that's something that shouldn't be done, right?

I wouldn't want Sensei to shamelessly take in...

...another woman's husband.

Please!

Ahh...

Sensei, please!

Well...

This is it.

You're right.

This is where he works.

Ahh...

That's great for him.

He can work here.

This was true, but well...

...it was part of the price I was willing to pay.

Oi, Ito-chan.

I need to talk to you for a bit.

Forgive me, some other time.

No! Come here, Ito-chan!

Should I quit?

Eh?

Should I...

...quit from this store?

Please stay by my side.

With just that...

I...

...can put up with whatever anyone...

...has to say to me.

So I said.

It can't be...

It can't be, it can't be.

Masaru's Younger Brother Kawamoto Wataru - True

It is.

It seems my punishment still has a long ways to go yet.

Onee-san.

Can you face my brother squarely?

It's not only Masaru-kun.

Zen-chan, too.

He was a man...

...who hated such perversions.

That a daughter of his...

Moreover...

...the Ito-chan that he trusted the most...

...would keep another person's husband...

He must be crying from the other side!

To both Masaru-san...

...and my Dad...

...I feel truly sorry.

But...

But what?

What is it?

Both of them...

...are already dead.

No, no, Ito-chan.

Their being dead has nothing to do with it!

That's a different matter, isn't it!

Wa... wait!

Say, Itoko.

Yes.

This store...

...was your dream ever since you were a child, right?

That's right.

It really came true for you.

You opened it using your own power when you were just nineteen...

...and protected it with only a woman's hands...

...after Masaru-kun's death.

Why would you...

...disgrace the very store sign you had put up yourself?

I understand full well...

...what it is you're trying to say.

If you understand, then you should do it.

But...

I...

I don't feel that I have disgraced the sign.

Your feeling is wrong.

Everyone around you feels that you have!

This is Onee-san's conceit!

I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

Have you thought about...

...what Suo-san's wife must be feeling?

I know.

And I...

...feel truly sorry for that, as well.

Sensei.

It's not only the sign that you're disgracing!

All of us are pointed at whenever we walk through the shopping district!

We came here because we trusted Sensei...

...and this store up until today!

Please explain this to us properly!

That's right.

With what all of you have told me today...

...I feel the full weight of the sin I am committing.

The trouble I've caused you...

...the pain I've brought to you...

...I feel I would like to put a stop to that.

But I will decline.

Suo-san...

...will continue...

...working at my store just as he has been.

I think there will be townspeople as well as customers...

...who will use this as a reason to lose trust in us and go away.

However...

...while...

...this might make me a really boring person...

...I intend...

...to go forward with confidence...

...that whatever happens...

...this store will work to make Western clothes.

I will protect this store.

I will meet the expectations of our customers.

I will protect the earnings of my employees.

This might be a self-serving way of putting it...

...but I will also protect...

...Suo-san as well as the lives of my family.

I can't ask you to please forgive me.

I won't mind if you don't forgive me.

However...

I am truly sorry.

Still, Itoko.

That's fine for you.

But I feel so sorry...

...for the children.

Make no mistake...

...first off the children will be told by their friends.

If you start thinking about how the children will be hurt by this...

...wouldn't that cause you...

...to do an about-face and consider fixing this?

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

You guys...

Wha... what is this?

Sir...

Oba-chan.

Whatever our Mom has done, it must be okay.

Our Mom would definitely never do a bad thing.

So please...

...forgive our Mom. Please!

Please!

Please!

Please!
