第八集
Testuro lost his
new job because he refused to work overtime.
He went to the
labour centre to find a job,
however, nearly
all the financial related job needs working overtime,
while Tetsuro prefers
to spend more time with Rin-chan.
He had already
promised her and he would not like to let her down.
So Tetsuro went
out everyday to find a job.
Rin-chan was worried
about her father as he looked sad and not genki.
Kanako called Rin.
Actually Rin hesitated to see her mother,
she would not want
to upset her father.
But Kanako went
to meet Rin on the way she back home.
Rin was happy to
see her mother again.
In the night Rin
asked Tetsuro to prepare the dinner for her,
but Tetsuro said
he was tired and would not.
Rin was disappointed
as Tetsuro had agreed to prepare dinner for her,
but he didn't,
besides, Kanako asked Rin, "what do you usually have for dinner?
ready made dinner
box? That's what I expect your father will buy, he will not prepare
dinner."
Kanako called Tetsuro
and told him that she would like to take back Rin,
she also told him
that she had already met Rin.
Tetsuro was angry
because Kanako left Rin to him
and told him that
she did not love her,
but now she came
back and want to get Rin back.
"That was just
my exercuse to leave you and try a new life."
Tetsuro was angry
with Rin that she did not tell him that she met her mother.
But then Yura told
Tetsuro that Rin was worried about him,
and actually Rin
would like the three of them, father, mother and Rin, live together again.
Yuro told Tetsuro
to explain to Rin. "But she is just a kid, she does not understand."
"But I think still
you should try."
So Tetsuro went
to Rin's room, he told Rin, "I am going to tell you what's going on these
days,
but I am not sure
if you understand or not, if so, give me a V hand to indicate."
"Let's start about
my work. I lost the job so I have to find another one,
to earn money for
the family. So I have to go out every day and have no time to prepare
dinner."
V
"Your mother and
I have already separated."
V
"so we cannot live
together again."
Rin held her little
hand hard and did not show the 'V',
Rin was just 7
years old, how can she understand why her parents cannot live together
again?
Poor Rin-chan........
The next day, the
form master called Tetsuro to school, because Rin threw a classmate's new
bag
(made by her mother)
onto the floor, she was jealous.
Tetsuro knew that
Rin really needs a mother.
For Rin's sake,
Tetsuro made a decision,
he asked Kanako
back home.
"Could you please
come back and we live together with Rin again?"
But, is this a
good choice, Tetsuro?
