Huh?
I'm telling you to get married.
Why me?
Hina is leaving our house and marrying into another family.
So, you will become the new proprietress and succeed the business with Ken.
FUKUYADOU HONPO
Is it true that Hina is getting married?
And is it true that Arare is going to succeed the business?
Is it true that you're marrying Arare and succeeding the store?
You were supposed to marry Hina, right?
The eldest is getting married, so you're moving to the second...
No matter how you look at it, the proprietress is lacking integrity.
What... What is it?
The delivery to Yamamoto's house. Aren't you going to be late?
KENNIN-JI
Oh, no!
All the best.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
I'm from Fukuyadou. Thank you for your invitation today.
Thank you for taking part in the tea ceremony
and bringing such delicate Japanese sweets.
Thank you very much.
I'm leaving.
I no longer care about this house.
Allow me to taste your tea.
WEEKLY RENTALS
So expensive.
93,000 YEN/MONTH 105,000 YEN/MONTH
You're starting your independent life?
Hinoyama!
Is that how you should be talking to your future brother-in-law?
What future brother-in-law!
Do you know how much trouble you've caused me?
-I'll leave this to you. -Sure.
Trouble?
Actually, when did this whole thing start?
What do you mean?
You've only had relations with my family for half a year, right?
When did you start dating my sister?
Technically speaking, we haven't dated yet.
Not yet?
In other words, it's an engagement made after zero days of dating.
What?
Isn't it trendy now?
Are you serious?
Of course.
What is my sister thinking.
If we're going to talk about causing trouble.
What do you want?
You leaving the house, that'd cause the real problem.
What?
If you were to leave, too, who's going to take over the store?
I'll never take it over.
FUKUYADOU HONPO: KYOTO LOVE STORY
EPISODE 2 FEELINGS THAT DON'T GET ACROSS
Wow! Oh, my God!
I'll take a picture for you.
What is she reading?
-Huh? -Nothing.
Fukuyoshi!
Yes.
Your sister's on the phone, hurry.
Okay.
What? Ran away?
No! I'm leading an independent life.
Got it? Make a memo of what I'm going to say.
Oh, right now? Hold on a sec.
Go ahead.
Shimogyou District, Kuriya Street.
Mail my luggage over there. Bye.
Are you kidding me?
Sorry for calling you out when you're so busy.
No problem. What did you want to talk to me about?
I'll be straightforward.
Please marry me.
I hope you can marry into my family.
I've always liked you, Hina.
But you are the eldest daughter of a store with hundreds of years of history.
I thought my feelings for you would only cause you trouble.
So I suppressed my feelings.
I always thought it would be impossible to take you out of there.
Have you been dating that guy for long?
No.
In that case...
But it's something I've decided on and I can't back out.
You understand that, right?
It's not a matter of the length of time.
In that case, it doesn't matter who asks first, right?
I want you to give serious thought to your happiness.
From the first moment I met you till now,
I've only thought about your happiness.
That's why I never confessed my feelings to you.
Hina!
Let me go.
Please let me go.
When Koma was talking about whether or not to let someone succeed the business,
Souichi said it was better to just close the store.
Dad said that?
He thought it was a waste
for his daughters to go to the extent of succeeding the store.
He couldn't agree to it.
That kind of happiness is difficult to obtain.
Others called him an idiot.
Your lot in life doesn't determine your happiness.
If you feel guilty, don't be.
You should just continue on the path that you believe in.
But what if the path that I believe in turns out to be the wrong one?
You think it's a mistake?
What is right, what is wrong,
nobody can tell for sure.
So, Hina,
just be true to your feelings.
As long as you are honest to yourself, even if it turns out be the wrong path,
you'll still be led to the right path one day.
That's how I feel.
It feels so refreshing!
My living essentials have arrived!
Home delivery.
-What are you doing here? -Isn't it obvious.
The luggage you asked for.
The one I asked to do that was Hana.
That's right, don't make your sister do such things for you.
Sneaking around like that is so disgraceful.
Who said you can open it?
What is this? And this?
Give it back.
Take this. House-warming soba.
Whose fault is it?
What is this?
Today, my sister's fiance came to my office.
The banker?
They dated zero days before getting engaged.
Oh... That's amazing.
It's not the time for admiration!
Why would she marry someone whom she hasn't even dated?
Why's that?
Because you neglected her for two years.
It's my fault?
It's because you went to Paris right after talking about marriage.
She gave up on you.
I had no choice. It was decided way before.
But you didn't even call back once.
-I was busy. -But still...
We were worried about you every single day.
We didn't know if you would call at a certain time
because of the time difference.
Ended up staying up till late at night.
-Till late at night? -Yeah.
Who?
All of us. Every one of us.
So, what you're saying is, you
want me to marry
your sister?
I think you can still make it.
If it goes back to the way it was, then I wouldn't have to succeed the store.
If you say so, I'll think about that.
Remember to lock the door. See ya.
Is yakisoba a house-warming present?
SPICY SAUCE YAKISOBA
How was it?
She said it's my fault that you are marrying out.
Your fault?
Yeah.
She said it's because I neglected you that things turned out this way.
True.
Kidding.
I thought so.
But it gave me a chance to think about many things.
Arare said this
to Mom,
"You have such an easy life.
"Living a life that others planned out for you is so easy."
If that's the case, she should try it out.
I haven't said this but...
Congratulations on your marriage.
Have a happy life.
Thank you.
You want me to marry...
Hana. Come on!
I won't let you run away.
I didn't think I'd get tattled on by my own little sister.
I didn't tattle on you. I got caught when I moved the box for you.
Why did you get caught?
The box was heavy, and Ken happened to pass by.
"This box looks heavy. What is it for?"
So I replied, "Someone needs me to help move it."
Then he said, "Arare sure knows how to use people!"
And I said, "Right, she even made a call to school."
-How big of an idiot are you? -Sorry...
-There's no excuse. -I didn't do it on purpose.
-That's not the point. -Okay...
I've finally started my independent life.
Just as it looked like I was going to live a carefree life,
he came over to pick at my faults.
Eh? Ken said you picked at his faults.
Sorry...
Always looking down on people. Really irritating.
Arare. Do you hate Ken?
I really do!
Why? He's kind and handsome. He's dependable.
He's "hautless."
He's "faultless!"
Are you really a student preparing for exams?
What about this "faultless" Ken do you hate?
Everything.
So, you're not going to marry Ken?
Who would marry him?
What about the store?
I'm not going to succeed it.
Then what about me?
How would I know?
I'll be in trouble. I've never thought about the store at all.
And I haven't decided what I'd want to do in the future.
Suddenly asking me to take over and marry.
-Annoying, huh? -Yeah.
Exactly.
Yummy.
This is a list of tomorrow's orders.
I'm so sorry, Ken.
That things became like this.
You're talking about Hina getting married?
I thought Hina would marry you.
I guess I never understood her.
And Arare left.
I'm afraid this store will have to close down.
The previous owner was also a chef, right?
In order to protect Fukuyadou's business,
it's best to marry someone who knows the store, right?
What does this store mean to those kids?
Every time I finished making sweets,
one of them would always disappear.
Arare would steal the finished product,
put it on a suitable plate,
and carefully study it for a long time.
That kid...
I told her not to go in the kitchen.
She would inspect the newly made sweets for a long time
before putting it in her mouth.
After eating,
if she says "Good"
that means the sweets are well-made.
If she says "Mmm" with her eyebrows furrowed,
it means they're unsatisfactory.
So, I'd always make one extra for the purpose.
To let Arare properly assess it.
Even now, the moment makes me nervous.
When she tastes the sweets,
I'll wonder if I made something that suits her taste.
To the point where even I think it's laughable
the way it makes my heart pound.
This is from my mother.
How considerate, thank you.
Sorry for the other day.
It's all right.
But what I said that day was the truth.
I'm serious.
That's troublesome.
-Hina. -I've already made up my mind.
The first time I've ever made a decision myself.
Please come by the store again sometime.
My mother would be pleased to see you.
I can definitely make you happier.
It's still not too late.
Hina.
So boring.
Dull.
It's done.
Can I eat it?
Not yet.
There you go.
How is it?
Good!
Is it? "Good," huh?
Delivery.
I don't need it.
You're so obstinate!
This was popular at the store in Paris.
Wait, not like that.
This is it.
How is it?
Quiet.
Good!
What do you mean "Good"? Putting on airs.
What?
Then I'll let the proprietress try it too.
-You haven't shown it to my mother yet? -Nope.
Hey.
Yes?
What is it?
You could serve some tea to your guest.
How ill-mannered.
Well, excuse me!
Once you drink the tea, go home right away!
All right, all right.
Arare.
What?
Come back.
I understand your feelings the most.
So...
Come back.
Ken...
Why are you like this?
What do you mean?
You couldn't marry my sister.
And plans for you to succeed the store fell through.
And then...
Now you're told to marry me.
How can you accept that so quickly?
This is your life.
Others are arbitrarily making decisions for you.
Why are you fine with it?
Well, because...
I was never interested in marrying Hina.
Huh?
I've...
liked you, that's why.
Huh?
What did he just say?
NEXT EPISODE
Is it succeeding the store or marrying Ken that's causing you to hesitate?
Isn't it hard? Living like that.
You said you liked me.
You said so.
THIS DRAMA IS A FICTION.
ANY RESEMBLANCE TO ACTUAL PEOPLE IS PURELY COINCIDENTAL. THANK YOU!
