Thank you so much for getting him to write. [Original work by Maki Maruhondo: Mood Indigo]
It would have been better
if only Kido would
finish what he had started. Bloody Kido.
Excuse me.
What do you mean?
Didn't he tell you?
I promised him that
I would transfer him to another one of our publishing houses.
if he got the publishing rights to Mr. Gamouda's manuscript.
I'll leave it with you.
Thank you.

Kijima.
You are despicable.
Hey, Kijima.
Hear me out!
No, I won't.
I was going to tell you,
but there was never a good time.
I'm angry with you for two reasons.
The first is because you kept quiet.
You didn't tell me that you had reconciled with your girlfriend.
When did that happen?
At what point did that happen?
You're such a jerk!
How dare you make me say these things!
I feel like I want to die.
- Hey, Kijima. I- - Don't touch me!
What's the other reason?
The other reason is
because you have no pride in your work
and you introduced me to it, despite your lack of pride.
How can you marry someone who belittles your work?
To add insult to injury, you use Mr. Gamouda's manuscript
as a bargaining chip to change jobs.
You used me to get that job.
Are you telling me that everything we did was for your marriage!?
You're the worst.
Then again, you've always been like that.
You always worried about what everyone thought,
so you never did anything you wanted.
You never had the courage of your convictions, in fact, you have no conviction!
You're spineless.
What? Are you angry?
You have no conviction, but you have plenty of pride. Huh?
I can't be like you.
What?
Don't you dare think that everybody can live the way you do!
Acting as if society doesn't matter, your future doesn't matter!
Saying and doing whatever the hell you like!
You can't even read between the lines!
You bastard!
Bastard!
Bastard...
And yet to have the ability to look past that...
Bastard...
...to be passionate and have the strength to not fear being alone...
I wanted to be like you.
I hate myself
when I'm with you.
Is that so?
We have that in common. I also find that
people like you make me sick.
Collect your things and get out of my house.
[Mood Indigo]
[Episode 5: A chain of betrayal and sorrow.]
March was a cold and wet month.
The cold that comes with spring is biting.
They say that it gets warmer in spring each time that it rains,
but Mr. Gamouda's condition
got worse with each passing day.
Mr. Gamouda.
Sir.
Oh.
I'm sorry. You must have been sleeping.
- It's okay. - Please lie comfortably.
I haven't given you my manuscript yet. I'm sorry.
It's fine.
I should be able to finish it soon,
but I really can't concentrate.
Please tell me when you're satisfied with it. We can even publish it as an unfinished work.
Ah, that was the contract, wasn't it.
You have a strong sales drive.
I must apologize.
I heard that you were quitting
Tosui after this job.
What?
Rio told me about it.
Well, actually...
I'm sorry.
It is what it is. That's your job.
It's normal to want to move towards better conditions.
Don't worry about it.
Thank you.
It's just...
You and Rio have been friends since university, right?
I would like you to
keep on supporting him
regardless of your job.
Mr. Gamouda...
You know, I worry about that boy.
He definitely
writes good books,
but he needs to
learn to let go a bit,
become a bit more selfish,
or else he'll destroy himself.
What do you mean?
That's why
I'm asking you
to take care of him.
I will. I'll do my best.
Thank you.
It's my pleasure.
I thought I had no regrets.
Mr. Gamouda...
It's all your fault, Kido.
You and your
half-baked idea
ended up like this.
Take responsibility for it! Okay?
I will. I'll take care of him,
so please don't worry.
I'm begging you.
I'm begging you...
I'm begging you.
I'm so tired,
but he must be even more tired.
I managed to get you such a good deal.
I understand,
but I want to stay here.
- Even so!- - Boss!
You know, I like the books we publish.
Please.
I see.
I thought so,
our company isn't such a bad place to work after all.
I think that being able to publish stuff like this
proves that we live in a peaceful world.
What an idiot!
I suppose I'd better go and talk to them on behalf of this idiot.
I'm sure there will be plenty of people who want to work there.
Boss...
Let's do this.
There are no second chances! You're going to have to work your ass off!
Thank you very much!
All is well now.
Kijima.
Is he okay?
He's been in a coma for two days.
Why didn't you contact me straight away?
Shut up.
Shouldn't you get some sleep? You look terrible.
Leave me alone.
Don't be so stubborn. Rest awhile.
No.
It's fine. Try and get some sleep over there.
What am I going to do if something happens while I'm resting?
It's okay.
I'll wake you up if anything happens.
Let me take a turn.
If anything happens, please call a nurse.
I will.
Did I wake you?
Were you able to get some sleep?
Yeah, a little bit.
I wanted to apologize.
I'm sorry about everything.
I wasn't honest with you.
You don't have to apologize.
I'm the one who gave myself those stupid expectations.
I know that you have your own reasons.
Kijima.
Kido,
thanks for coming.
To be honest,
I didn't think I could bear this alone.
I have so many things
that I wanted to talk to him about.
Ah.
A long time ago, I...
envisioned the
ideal father.
That person was someone like him.
Someone who loved the world I loved
and understood me.
I told him that
and he laughed his head off.
He said that I wouldn't have been a writer
if I had a father like him.
Yeah, that's true.
I'm not sure
which would have been better.
Yeah.
You know,
he had started
to get confused
a while ago.
I could see
that he was losing
the words that
came from that brilliant mind.
I could see
that he was never going to be the same again.
It was heart-breaking.
But I suppose
he doesn't
need things like that
anymore.
His manuscript is complete.
I'm looking after it.
I think that it will be hectic for a while,
so will you come and collect it when it quietens down?
I will.
Mr. Gamouda died quietly in his sleep
early in the morning.

♫ On that day, in the pouring rain, ♫
♫ I didn't even think to bring an umbrella ♫
♫ While holding onto my mistakes, ♫
♫ I walked anywhere ♫
♫ Words are useless ♫
♫ I don't see kindness in your eyes ♫
♫ It's all my fault, but when I'm loved ♫
♫ Even though I'm not perfect ♫
♫ You said you would take care of me ♫
♫ You being here ♫
♫ makes me happy ♫
[This drama is a work of fiction.]
There is a genre for mourning, isn't there?
Don't...
You are special to me.
I want to support him.
Fuck!
Take care of yourself.
