it's because I love Shinzi

What should I do? I feel so bad..

How nice if we didn't meet!

I won't let you go anywhere

I am a boring man

without any good traits

You are not in the wrong

it's me who is not good enough for you

if a woman who always have my interests at heart,

to be by my side

Shinzi....

is it true?

it's true

I will remember it

I will never forget it

Teacher

Teacher!

it is a bad swell

if it continues to swell, we'll just hav to cut it up to let the fluid flows out

Shinzi......

Shinzi!

Don't leave me alone

Shinzi.......

I've had a bad dream

My ears....my ears are rotten and they fell off

It's just a dream

Shinzi

Bite me

Bite me, or else....

Something is not right in my head

Harder

It's no good for your body

When the body is healed

Everything will be alright

It can't be healed

What are you saying?

Think about it, if you are in my shoes

I know. I...

know that there is no hope

I understand perfectly well

Going out to take some fresh air

Let's go and see the fireworks by the river?

Not with my face like this!

Can't go out with you together......

You go back first. Don't tell mother

okay

Shinzi!

Shinzi, did you come to see the fireworks?

No, I came to buy medicine for Teacher

How is she now?

Not so good. Still lying in bed.

Let me visit her now

Better not. She'll get angry if she sees a woman

Is it....

Then.... goodbye

Please come this way

Please, take your time

I've been thinking why I wanted to

see you again

Me?

I want to leave home

and?

I've written to my Uncle in Yusan

I am not getting along with my step-mother

I ask if I could stay there

Uncle wrote back and said that I can leave immediately

Yusan huh?

Very far

We won't be able to see each other again

Oh yes we will

I was born in Yusan

I can't remember it now

Do you know why Teacher is so cold

towards me?

It's jealousy because you are beautiful

Is that what she thought?

My.... my feelings

I think I'll send you to Yusan

If you are not around,

who's taking care of Teacher?

It's because you think that Teacher is beautiful

That is why you take care of her

Another reason being there is no other woman

besides her

Another thing is there is no woman that can

put me in so much diffiuclty as she did

Why don't you give me some of your courage

If I have such courage....

I....

I am very weak....

No matter how my stepmother beat me

If I am to cry then I have to admit defeat.

That's why I control myself

I never want to go back to that house

Not even for one day

I am also going to Yusan

If this continues, my relationship with teacher

would not work out

Ah!

Shinzi....ah...

Ah!

Shinzi, what are you doing?
