Don't turn round!

OK:

You're still there?

I'm... I'm still here

Jay!

Pervert

Jay?

Yeah

Do you think, if we die

Out here in the mountains

When people find us

They'll say we died for love?

You're silly!

I said 'if"

We're not going to die

But your Mom and Dad

Must be really worried about you

Who knows...

Maybe they haven't even noticed I'm gone

That's not possible

One time, last year

They had a huge fight

And I wanted to come see Grandpa

I went to the train station

And sat there for ages

Finally, I went home

But when I got back

They were just in their rooms

With no idea I'd been gone

When I was 9

My dad had an accident in his factory

And lost his fingers

He stayed home every day, drinking

gambling

He started to hit my mom

He would grab her by the hair

and keep on slapping her

One day

My dad was drunk

He wanted me to drink with him

I refused

So he took all my awards

And ripped them all up

I couldn't help it, I started to cry

Then he started to hit me

He said I looked down on him

I didn't look down on him

I just wanted a normal dad

Why did I have to get a dad like this?

When my mom found out

We ran away from home

And moved far away

But not long after, Dad found us

So we kept on moving

And moving

And moving

You're actually lucky

Get up

Come on

Why?

Come here

Dance with me

I...

I'll teach you

Same this side

Kick, clap!

What dance is this?

I don't know

My mom learnt it from an old movie

OK:

Watch me first

Three steps forward

Turn!

Same this side

Kick...Clap...

Kick...Clap...

Three steps forward

Then like this

Good morning

Morning

Sleep well?

Yeah

Today we should follow the tracks

They should lead to the road

OK:

Jay

Yeah?

Thank you

Huh, here again...

Ladies first

You first!

No, you first!

You first!

I insist, you first

Let's go!

Almost there

You can tell by smelling the leaves

Trust me

Look!

Wait for me outside

Is that OK?

Sure

Jay

Come in

OK:

This is Grandpa's workbench

He made all of these

I painted these when I was little

This is my little desk

Here it is

When I was little

I came with Grandpa to look at the stars

Why won't the mist go away?

Give it time

I really hope...

You can see the stars

Mei

For this short time

I've been so happy

I never knew I could be so happy

Knowing you

Now I know

I can be lucky, too

When I get home

I have to move again

My dad, he...

Mei

Mei!

Your Grandpa's phone is cut off

I brought a cell phone

In my backpack

Sorry

I didn't mean to not tell you

It's just

If we used the cell phone

Our journey would have come to an end

Let's go home

Jay

Stay with me, OK?

Jay!

Jay!

Jay

Jay

Dad!

Mon!

Grandpa
