SIGN    Episode 10     The Lonely Ice     and Small Flame [02:13] Letana     The few years I had after     leaving the orphanage [02:16] Letana     were more than enough to learn     just how cold the outside world was.

[04:46] (Flashback) Letana     I'm so sorry, Pesha, [04:48] (Flashback) Letana     that I can't let you eat     all this wonderful food. [04:53] (Flashback) Letana     But someday...

You're already six months behind! [05:28] (Flashback) Letana     I'm so sorry... I'm having a     really hard time finding work. [05:33] (Flashback) Landlady     Things are hard for me, too. [05:35] (Flashback) Landlady     I'm no monster, so I hate to say this... [05:38] (Flashback) Landlady     But if this continues, I'm going     to have to ask you to leave.

[07:11] Letana     If I were to just disappear... [07:22] Letana     If I just disappeared... [07:28] Letana     I wonder if Pesha would also be able     to go to that orphanage and be happy... [07:34] Letana     I wish I could go back to those days. [07:37] Letana     To that warm... happy place. [07:42] Letana     I can't bear these cold winter nights anymore.

[09:09] Letana     I wonder if Pesha hates me now. [09:13] Letana     I need to tell her... [09:26] Letana     that even so, I'm wishing for her happiness. [09:32] Letana     Come to think of it... I've never     properly told her how I felt. [09:45] (Flashback) Vagrant     You had the nerve to buy     cake? You rich bitch. [09:57] Letana     The world... took everything away from me... [10:02] Letana     But that's fine. [10:06] Letana     Even if I go to hell... [10:15] Letana     Pesha. [10:17] Letana     May you and so many children like you [10:21] Letana     never know about this world     that's so filled with pain.

[13:12] Shy     The kindness you showed her...     continues to live in Spirit's heart! [13:18] Pepesha     That's when I remembered a small     flame from a candle I'd seen once. [13:26] Pepesha     The flame stood no chance     against the cold that day, [13:30] Pepesha     so it was tiny and flickering... [13:34] Pepesha     But even so, it was more than enough     to let me dream about tomorrow. [13:38] Pepesha     That's how strong and warm it was. [13:41] Shy     Your dark, frozen heart... [13:46] Shy     I'm... [13:47] Shy     going to light it back up! [13:53] Shy     Shy.

[17:33] Tzveta     I don't care if no one cares about me! [17:35] Tzveta     I'll endure any pain for     the sake of the children! [17:44] Shy     Pepesha-san! [17:47] Shy     The reason Pepesha-san is here right now... [17:49] Shy     is because of the love... [17:52] Shy     she clearly inherited from you! [17:56] Shy     The kind of love that, given     even the smallest opportunity, [18:00] Shy     she shares with others! [18:04] Shy     Her kind heart that allows     her to care for others! [18:07] Shy     She inherited that from you! [18:12] Shy     It's because she admired you so much [18:15] Shy     that she became a world-saving hero! [18:17] Tzveta     That can't be. [18:20] Tzveta     I couldn't do anything for Pesha. [18:25] Tzveta     That's why I'm here right now... [18:28] Tzveta     So that no more failures     like myself are born!

Tell her how you really feel. [19:38] Tzveta     I won't let you get in the way! [19:46] Tzveta     This is all for my ideals! [19:50] Pepesha     Watching Teru-chan reminds me of my old self. [19:55] Tzveta     For the children! [20:02] Pepesha     That's why I could never leave her alone, [20:04] Pepesha     and always intended to give     her the push that she needed. [20:08] Pepesha     But... But you're actually... [20:34] Pepesha     I couldn't build up the courage. [20:37] Pepesha     I was too scared of hurting you, Mama. [20:40] Pepesha     Scared you might end up hating me. [20:43] Pepesha     But back then... [20:46] Pepesha     I should've told you how I really felt. [20:52] Pepesha     Say, Mama...
