I need to hear it at full volume,

with my body.

- They're still back there?

- Yes.

I wish you would see them less often.

Your buddies aren't worth much.

It doesn't even bother me to say it.

You're the only one who gets it.

When you go to college next year,

you won't have any problem

finding ways to keep yourself busy.

I understand.

Is that all you wanted to say?

No.

You need money?

No, not really.

It seems that you were part of

an ambush outside the bank.

We did it for laughs.

But Makino was scared.

She said that you drive like wolves.

- Wolves...

- She thought you were thugs.

How can I even respond to that?

From now on, if you need money,

talk to me first.

- Okay?

- Yes.

That's all. You can go.

- Was he mad?

- My dad never gets mad.

I guess. He's an understanding father.

And you're a son who

isn't big enough to fight.

The nerve of saying that we're wolves...

- Who? Your father?

- The secretary.

That tricky broad?

I swear I'll make her

swallow her pride soon.

I'm home.

What's wrong?

What happened?

Nothing.

Still in a bad mood?

That's not it.

Then what is it? Tell me.

What can you do?

- It doesn't concern you.

- Oh really?

We live together.

If you're grumpy all the time,

I can't bear it.

- It's the bills.

- The bills?

Hisako's still at it.

She bought a refrigerator on credit.

Washing machine,

vacuum cleaner, television...

Even the pots and pans were on credit.

It takes up most of my income.

She's clueless about being thrifty.

It's not like we can afford the luxury...

But, Dear!

It's not like I need luxury.

All our neighbors

already have a refrigerator.

So what?

You just want to impress them?

That nonsense is the reason I have to

sweat all day at the office?

You're being unfair!

I just hoped that

when you come home tired,

I'd be able to serve you a cold beer.

It's already starting to get hot.

That's why I wanted it so much.

You still don't understand.

That's just being wasteful.

You need to think ahead.

You don't know how

I have to suffer every day.

- You only think of yourself.

- Idiot!

How harsh.

You're a bit of a tyrant today.

You don't know

how it feels to be poorly paid.

I know, but remember

that I also work every day.

That's no reason to

take it out on Hisako.

And Hisako,

you love my brother don't you?

Why all the arguments?

He's too selfish.

I'll return the refrigerator tomorrow.

Good riddance.

You don't need to return it.

I can pay for part of it.

Come on, let's eat. I'm starving.

Not eating?

It seems that the life

of a salaryman is pretty good.

As soon as you get home,

you do a crossword puzzle,

or you argue.

You'll become like this too.

I absolutely will not.
