Sakurai Natsu Enami Kyōko

Is something the matter?

Ah, where's the Sakurai Natsu who was in here?

Sakurai-san?

Ah, she was discharged from the hospital.

Discharged?

Yes. The day before yesterday.

Thank goodness.

I thought you had died, geez!

Even so...

Just where is she?

Right now?!

Is she living alone?

She said she didn't have any relatives, so...

Hmm...

Just how many weak, elderly and alone people...

...do they discharge...

...I wonder?

Ah, that is a worry, isn't it?

I've heard that loneliness can kill an elderly person, can't it?

Death from loneliness?

Mako-chan, look, watch when you say such things around Sensei...

Wai... Sensei?!

Where are you going?

To the hospital.

Eh?

I'll find out what Natsu's address is.

You mustn't, Sensei!

We told you that you have an interview coming in now!

That's right!

But, if I don't find out and she dies from loneliness...

Such a thing wouldn't happen right away.

Look, I will contact the hospital.

Yes, yes, Kō-chan'll do that, right!

Let's do as Kō-chan says.

Excuse me.

Ah, yes!

Good afternoon.

They're here. They're from "Modern-day Woman."

Come in and welcome!

Well... Welcome and thank you for coming out of your way like this!

You must be hot, aren't you? Sorry about that.

I couldn't see Natsu's face...

...but maybe Natsu herself...

Mother who raised the 3 sisters Fashion Designer, Ohara Itoko-san

...had been seeing my face.

What is it?

Ah, that's good.

Yes, once more!

Thank you so very much.

Thank you as well.

Take care. Thank you.

Did you find out Natsu's address?

Ah, about that... I'm sorry!

They told me they couldn't tell me that.

Huh? Why?!

Ah...

"We can't give out personal information," they said.

What the... Why?!

I'm sorry.

It was because...

...you asked them in that tiny whisper of a voice, wasn't it?!

Well, it has nothing to do with his tiny voice.

They just don't easily give out personal information to other people these days.

No matter how often he might have asked, it'd be the same.

Well... I thought this would work.

I just had to ask you.

This is a walk in the park.

Itoko-sensei can ask me for anything.

Good bye... Director!

Take care.

Be careful!

Um, excuse me.

Huh?

About the phone number for Sakurai Natsu-san.

I guess we can't tell you.

Eh?

Why not?

That's obvious!

Eh?

A hospital can't just go around leaking a patient's personal information!

Still, I'm an old friend of that girl...

...so I just want to know since I'm worried about her health.

Whatever the reason might be, we have to refuse it!

What's that?! It's okay to tell me!

Stingy!

Please say whatever you wish!

No means no!

Scary...

What is this about "personal information?"

It's not like Natsu's address...

...is something complicated.

I don't understand at all why this world...

...gets in such a fuss over small things.

And what's up with those socks?

What on earth is this girl trying to say with such clothes?

Ah, I don't get it at all.

Ohara-san!

Yes.

Hey, you.

Girls shouldn't let...

...their stomachs get cold like that.

Even so...

Heisei 13 (2001) September 15th

...it was time again...

...for the Festival at my place!

Sōrya sōrya sōrya sōrya sōrya!

Whatever kind of troubles the world would bring...

...the Festival hadn't changed since the old days.

This is great!

Still, the faces of my guests had changed quite a lot.

The number of local people had decreased...

...while the number from far away had increased.

Aside from eating with my daughters each year...

...it seemed the only guests I got these days...

...were celebrated ones...

...but I really couldn't remember them very well anyhow...

Ma'am!

Still, I could drink and eat my fill.

I enjoyed myself.

Do you have enough beer?

Ah, thanks, thanks. Thank you for inviting us.

Thank you very much.

Yes, here you go!

Oh, Satoko-chan!

Ah, President Hashida! We haven't talked in awhile.

It has been a long time!

Since I saw as pretty a girl as you!

Ah... We'll talk again later.

"Later," that's... It's been so long since we last met, wait...

Sensei!

Some rare guys have come in!

Sensei!

Ala, is that Mamoru?!

We haven't talked in a long time!

Weren't you promoted? Where are you now?

In our Tokyo headquarters.

Eh?!

You've come far, huh?

Yuzuru and Einosuke and Mamoru...

...had all become full-fledged men.

I'm doing a fashion show at a hospital this time around.

A hospital fashion show?

Yeah.

Great-grandma!

Ah...

Hey, hey, you mustn't!

You mustn't grab Grandma so tight.

Don't do that. Just gently.

Forgive me.

Grandma's body hurts when you hug her too tightly...

...so forgive me, forgive me.

Yes, you're smart, here.

Ala, the danjiri.

The danjiri's coming. Here, take a look.

You're smart, you're smart.

Don't fall.

Even so...

Yeah?

To coach them on how to walk properly...

...I thought I could have them practice beforehand.

Eh, will the patients be okay?

Well...

Whatever the patients can do...

...I'll make sure they do it.

That's right.

Scary!

Do you know any people who can teach a model how to walk?

Ah... I have a few. Want me to introduce you to them?

Yeah... Please do!

You still in Tokyo?

Yeah.

As ever, helping out around my Mom's company.

Ever gonna transfer to Osaka?

Probably...

...not.

Well...

Guess there's definately no way I could move to Tokyo, either.

Papa!

Oh!

Look...

You'll come again next year, right?

Yeah.

Well then, see ya next year.

Yeah!

Okay, let's go!

Mama!

Huh?

Grandma's calling for you.

She has a favor to ask.

A favor to ask?

Sorry for keeping you waiting, Sensei.

Look, let's go.

Wait, Kō-chan.

Put this in, just in case.

Please.

Just on the off-chance. Right!

Well then, shall we go?

Here's an eraser. I'll put it here.

Yes! Thank you very much.

Self-introduction Comments

Please write with as much detail as possible.

Self-introduction Comments

My most attractive feature?

Eh?! What would that be, I wonder?

Just write, "I have a nice body."

Eh?! I can't write that!

It's okay. Nothing wrong with that...

Eh?!

Have a seat here.

Right here...

...I'm going to make a floating drape.

Eh!

Nice, isn't it?

What should I do here?

What do you think?
