Page 3 Title 8th. day - Memento's of mother Page 4 4 Masahiko All right!! 6 Aunt Yukari What are you doing, Masahiko-san? Masahiko I'm just washing it a little... Page 5 1 Aunt Yukari Why don't you put it here so I'll wash it. Masahiko Because I like to do this myself... 2 Aunt Yukari Suspicious, isn't it, that you want to wash that mug yourself. Is it that important? Could it be a present from an old sweetheart, I wonder? Masahiko Ah, that's not it. 4 Masahiko Don't laugh, please. Aunt Yukari I won't laugh. Masahiko Really!! 5 Masahiko This was my Xmas present of my mother when I was 5-years old. Aunt Yukari From my sister? Masahiko Yeah... The first and the last... so. 6 Masahiko This is my only memento of my mother. Aunt Yukari .... Page 6 1 Masahiko Well laugh!! You must think by now that I have a mother complex. Aunt Yukari Not at all. Your mother will surely be proud that it is that important to you that you have kept it for over 10 years. (On the other hand when our Shion gets to hear this...) 2 Masahiko .... 3 Aunt Yukari But... 4 Aunt Yukari I think that you have more memento's of your mother. 5 Masahiko Hah? Aunt Yukari Well, goodnight. 6 Masahiko ....? 8 Masahiko Goodnight... Page 7 1 Shion I'm home. 2 Shion That hysterical old bat. 3 Shion Giving homework. 4 Shion When I get home, there's nobody here? Really!! 6 Shion What is this filthy old mug? Why don't mama throw this old thing away. Page 8 4 Masahiko Not!! 5 Masahiko Not!? 6 Masahiko Not!? 7 Aunt Yukari What's going on, Masahiko-san? Masahiko I can't find it anywhere!! Page 9 1 Aunt Yukari Can't find what? Masahiko Do you know where my mug is!? 2 Aunt Yukari I see, the mug you washed yourself... 3 Masahiko I washed it separately the evening! Have you not seen it!! Aunt Yukari Calm down Masahiko-san, you must have misplaced it. Masahiko That can't be!! 4 Shion You're noisy, what are you yelling about!! Aunt Yukari Ah, Shion. 5 Aunt Yukari Do you know where Masahiko's mug is? 6 Shion Mug? 7 Shion I accidentally that old mug... WAH!! Masahiko Do you know!? Page 10 1 Shion I threw it away (the handle came off) 3 Masahiko Not, not!! Shion Frightening. 4 Shion Wasn't there a dog on it? Masahiko I'm not looking for a bone!! 6 Shion He looks like he is dying. Aunt Yukari Isn't it. Masahiko Just the handle... Page 11 1 Uncle Sora What's the uproar about? Shion (He died) Aunt Yukari Dear... 2 Uncle Sora You threw that filthy mug away? So that's what it was... 4 Uncle Sora I thought I found something to wash my brushes in. 5 Uncle Sora But...? (Was that so horrible...?) Shion (I knew it, he died) Page 12 1 Uncle Sora Great! It is repaired, everything is fine. Shion What a relieve. Aunt Yukari I'm so happy, I could imaging how you felt for a short time, Masahiko-san. 3 Shion It was really bad, but now it is repaired. Uncle Sora I didn't know it was so important. 4 Masahiko A weak point... 6 Shion It was just repaired, it won't break!! 7 Shion Have some trust in Japanese technology!! See how strong it is!! Masahiko Wah, stop it... Page 13 1 Masahiko I understand, I understand, you don't have to handle it that violently. Aunt Yukari Shion! 4 Aunt Yukari I think you can use it as before. Masahiko Really... Page 14 3 Masahiko Mama. 4 Masahiko Say Mama Buy that mug. 5 Masahiko My mug is made of plastic. Mother It is too soon, if you drop this it'll break. 6 Mother When you drink your cocoa, I think you'll drop it this time too. Masahiko I won't drop it, it's my absolute wish mama!! Page 15 1 Mother Well if you won't drop your mug anymore till Xmas. 2 Masahiko You'll buy it as a Xmas present. Really promise me, mama!! 3 Mother It's a promise. Masahiko Yes! Pinky-promise. 4 Masahiko Thank you mama!! Father Now you're not a baby anymore, it's important. 5 Masahiko Yes!! I will absolutely not break it, forever!! 6 Masahiko When I'm a grade-school student, when I'm married, when I'm dead, forever. Page 17 1 Shion Really. This mothercomplex!! 2 Shion I just said something or other. It's only a mug. Now he locked himself in his room. That guy is already 18-years old, a university student. This cannot be true. What a brat, this guy. 4 Uncle Sora Shion... 5 Uncle Sora What's Masahiko-kun doing in his room? Shion Making a jigsaw puzzle out of that old thing! 6 Masahiko (this should go here...) Page 18 5 Shion It won't mount to anything! He should rather throw it away and feel relieved. Page 19 1 Shion Really, when I hear that brat... 2 Uncle Sora Shion, act properly!! 3 Aunt Yukari Dear... 5 Aunt Yukari Shion... Both Masahiko-san and similarly you are quite hurt, I understand that. 6 Aunt Yukari However, to offend somebody on purpose, you cannot do. 7 Aunt Yukari You know yourself what is good. You decide for yourself, you're plenty grown up to feel being a mother. Page 20 1 Shion Thanks for dinner! 2 Shion Thanks to that guy I'm irritated. I'm going for a walk. 4 Uncle Sora I'm disappointed... She was such an obedient girl before... Aunt Yukari She's still in puberty. Page 21 1 Masahiko Shit!! 8 Aunt Yukari As I thought, you are hungry? Page 22 1 Masahiko Well... 2 Aunt Yukari I'll prepare some food now. 3 Aunt Yukari There you go. Masahiko Bon appetite... 6 Masahiko I'm sorry. Today... 8 Masahiko I'm not angry at anybody, eventually it had to break... Only... Page 23 1 Masahiko I'm just sad... My one and only memento fell in very small pieces. 3 Aunt Yukari The way you hold your chopsticks is good. 4 Masahiko These? Aunt Yukari Shion was terrible. 5 Aunt Yukari When she was small she had a terrible hold. We had to work on how she held them. (she held them like this) 6 Masahiko Strange... I remember that I was thought naturally. Aunt Yukari Yes, your mother was very good at teaching. Page 24 1 Masahiko Never got angry... Naturally... 5 Masahiko Huh? 9 Mother With the tips. Page 25 1 Mother I eat them all slowly. Masahiko How sly, mama!! 7 Masahiko No, no!! Mother Don't stab, hold them like this. Page 26 1 Mother Very good, very good, you're beating mama. Masahiko Of course, I'll eat them all!! 3 Aunt Yukari She really could teach... Whether to way to hold chopstick, manners or etiquette!! 4 Aunt Yukari I wonder of these are also memento's of you mother. Page 27 3 Aunt Yukari Memento's are not just things. 6 Aunt Yukari Use your chopsticks, the food'll get cold! Masahiko Yeah... Page 29 3 Shion [SFX: smile] 5 narration Today was the first day of few memento's. I have a hunch that they will be many. All... warm memento's... 6 Masahiko The sequel is The next day I had three mugs.
