O-SODE-SAN
Good morning, grandmother!
OBAA-SAN (with a strange wistfulness in her tone)
Good morning, O-Sode-San. Good morning, O-Katsu-San. May the bright day bring you a bright heart.
O-KATSU-SAN
And you, Obaa-San.
O-SODE-SAN
How is the weeping willow tree, grandmother?
OBAA-SAN
It is there—close to me.
