Hadashi no Gen

Hadashi no Gen1983



Gen:
Take that! [slaps Seijo] And that! [again] You're just a spoiled brat, even if you are a grownup.

Ryuta:
Now I know why they stuck you out here by yourself.

Gen:
We're leaving!

Ryuta:
Yeah, we quit!

Seijo:
Ryuta, Gen

Gen:
Calling us by our names won't help, it's too late! [sees tears forming in Seijo's eye, calms down] I'm sorry I hit you.

Seijo:
No, no, I'm glad that you did.

Gen:
Come on, you like bieng slapped around?

Ryuta:
Huh, that's kind of weird.

Gen:
You want to slap him this time?

Ryuta:
My pleasure!

Seijo:
That's right, that's right, hit me, I won't mind.

Gen:
Wait a minute! It's not normal to want to be hit!

Seijo:
When you've gone without human contact as long as I have, you're grateful for anything, even a slap. It's funny how people change. My brother and his family used to enjoy my company before the bomb did this to me. Now they've all left me out here to die. My only visitors are the people my brother has paid to look after me, and none of them has ever lasted very long. You were the only ones to treat me as anything more than a freak or a corpse; you treated me like a human being, and for that I am grateful.
