The End of Summer quotes

  • Akiko: Then what?

    Noriko, second daughter: He ate everything that they put in front of him. Then he loosened his belt! He ate so much.

    Akiko: He must have been famished.

    Noriko, second daughter: I suppose. After the dinner at the hotel, we were walking through Nakanoshima.

    Akiko: You two were alone?

    Noriko, second daughter: Yes, everyone insisted.

    Akiko: I see. What happened.

    Noriko, second daughter: He asked me if I disliked Western cuisine. So, I said, "What about you?" And after all that food, he said he isn't too fond of it! Such a peculiar man!

  • Akiko: What happened next?

    Noriko, second daughter: He saw that nobody was around, so he grabbed my hand and squeezed it.

    Akiko: And what did you do?

    Noriko, second daughter: I squeezed it back.

    Akiko: And then?

    Noriko, second daughter: He said that my hand was cold and wouldn't let go. His hand was warm. But when we were near other people, he would try to let go in a hurry. So I wouldn't let go of his hand on purpose.

    Akiko: And then?
