00:00I'm Shota. I managed to graduate from high school, but I didn't continue to college, nor work. I was just like a recluse.
00:09During that time...
00:11I'm going to get married again!
00:13What? Oh, really? Didn't know about that.
00:17My mother died when I was a schoolboy. He raised me all on his own, so I had no reason to refuse.
00:23In fact, I was happy to see my father talking like this.
00:27Well, I don't mind, but...
00:29It's a surprise that you found a woman even though I don't work.
00:32Oh, no problem. She also has a child.
00:36Really? A sibling?
00:39A few days later, I met my new mother and her daughter for the first time.
00:43Nice to meet you. I'm Yoko.
00:46Hi, Onii-chan. I'm Sana. I'm in 8th grade right now.
00:51Um... Nice to meet you.
00:54What do you think, Shota? She looks exciting, eh?
00:58Sana was a cheerful girl, but I'm sure she's having a tough time having a new parent at this time.
01:03That made me all the more painful.
01:06We got along with each other, and half a year later, we started a new life as a true family.
01:11I'm gonna eat up your meal!
01:14Go on, I don't mind.
01:16Sana, stop behaving like that.
01:19Hahaha.
01:21My mother, Yoko, was a kind woman.
01:24She talked to me gently, even though I didn't work.
01:27Well, maybe she just can't say it to me.
01:31I felt myself getting slightly brighter day by day.
01:34Shota, go have a shower first.
01:37Okay. I wonder if it's alright if I shower first.
01:40Well, I don't mind.
01:42Huh? No, no, no!
01:44You seem to be surprised, huh?
01:47Why are you undressed?
01:49Stop teasing me like that.
01:51Leave me alone.
01:53Hahaha. It's so funny.
01:56I'm a man after all.
01:58She seems that she doesn't have any virtue yet.
02:01She sometimes teases me like that.
02:03Yoko! Sana's teasing me! Again!
02:07I'm so sorry.
02:09She's still a child.
02:11I'll scold her later.
02:13But I'm glad she's getting along with you.
02:15I couldn't take much care of her because of my work.
02:18I bet she's happy to have a brother.
02:20So I'm actually helping her out.
02:23But the days did not last so long.
02:26Half a year later, Yoko and my father died in an accident during their honeymoon.
02:31Mom! Mom!
02:34Dad, all I saw was their bodies.
02:37We couldn't even see them dying.
02:39After the funeral,
02:41From now on, Sana will be coming to our house.
02:44What?
02:46Shota doesn't work, right?
02:48How are you guys going to live on?
02:50Um...
02:52You can't live on with a bit of inheritance.
02:55Sana has high school and college in the future.
02:58How can I rely on you?
03:00I'm gonna start a part-time job.
03:02And housework too.
03:04You don't have to work if you come with us.
03:06Plus, he was nothing but a stranger half a year ago.
03:09I don't want to make any mistakes.
03:11He's not a person like that!
03:13I didn't have anything to say.
03:16Even I wasn't too sure what to do without my father.
03:19It was too much of a task for me to support Sana all by myself.
03:24Okay then, take care.
03:27Shota!
03:29Since then, Sana left the house.
03:32I was losing my energy with a big house all to myself.
03:35My diet was nothing but junk food.
03:39After three months of loneliness,
03:41Sana suddenly came to my house after entering high school.
03:45Look! My new school uniform!
03:48Nice. It really suits you.
03:50Whoa! This room is littered!
03:53It's clean enough for me.
03:55That's why I didn't want to leave this house.
03:58So, how's life? Everything going well?
04:01I... have something that I want to talk to you about.
04:05What's the matter?
04:07My uncle has a child who is two years older than me,
04:10but he's handicapped, and I'm taking care of him every day.
04:15Really? I never knew about that.
04:18Yeah, I didn't have much chance to meet him in the past, so I didn't know.
04:23I know I have to take care of him, but I'm exhausted.
04:28I'm sorry, Sana. If only I was working.
04:33It was really fun living with you, but we aren't a real family.
04:38Still, I want to live with you.
04:42Sana...
04:43Okay, I'm going to start working.
04:46I'm going to find a job to pick you up.
04:48You aren't the only one who had fun living together.
04:52I started looking for a job.
04:54Finally, I was hired at a small company as a plumber.
04:59Put away that stuff.
05:01Yes, sir.
05:02I was struggling with my job.
05:04Payday is coming in a few days, and I was planning to go to Sana's place that day.
05:09But...
05:11What?
05:12Shota...
05:13They're going to force me to get married!
05:16No way!
05:17I hurried over to our uncle's house.
05:20What do you mean by marriage?
05:22My son is handicapped.
05:24I'm going to take care of her until her college, so why would marrying be a problem?
05:29At least it's a problem for me.
05:31Cut it out.
05:32You're just using her for your own purposes.
05:35She can't have been alive without me.
05:38Then I'm going to take her to college.
05:41Huh?
05:42You're not even working.
05:44I'm working, so I'm her supervisor.
05:47I'm her family and her brother.
05:49She's not alone.
05:51Then go on.
05:52I'm not going to let her in next time she comes to me.
05:55Shota...
05:57That day I took Sana home, Sana was crying and smiling at the same time.
06:02A new life all on our own started.
06:04I decided not to touch our parents' inheritance.
06:07I'm pretty sure Sana was having a hard time with just my earnings.
06:11Now, keep it up!
06:13I can do it!
06:15Still, we went out to eat once a month and celebrated her birthday.
06:19I worked hard.
06:20It's not bad to live with a goal.
06:23Time has passed.
06:24Sana graduated from college and started working, and...
06:28Thanks, Shota.
06:30For everything.
06:31Hey, you still have to walk down the church aisle.
06:34Don't make me cry.
06:37Sana is going to get married today.
06:39Have a great life, Sana.
06:54To be continued...
