どこにつずく道なのか?

i was sick of mugging so i watched a movie.

_____

5 teens were good friends. among them was a gangster. these 5 people was chatting at a jetty one night and saw this boat which was rented for entertainment purposes (businessmen and hostesses drinking and and dancing and making a hell lot of noise).

these 5 people decided to themselves that they will never be this kind of adults when they grow up. adults who are jaded by their riches. adults who make a fool of themselves. the gangster said: "I will NEV-ER board on that boat. (俺、この船を絶~対乗らねぇ.)" being the gangster he was, he managed to get a crane (or something smaller), pulled up a statue nearby, and sank the boat. the people in it escape from the disaster pathetically. he and his 4 friends hi-fived in celebration.

3 years passed. these 5 people graduated from high school, got their own jobs. the gangster quit his gang, got married (to an ex-gangstress XD) and had a kid. he now works in an electrical appliances shop.

one day he was informed that he was to entertain some big shot customer. he asked where.

"Chu, you know where."

he understood it, and went. to the boat which he said he'll NEV-ER board.

he then went inside, trying hard not to drink, not to tie his tie around his forehead and dance. but he couldn't stay like that. his colleagues made him drink. made him dance. made him do whatever that he didn't want to do 3 years ago.

he was about to finish that bottle of beer. he took an accidental peek out of the window. his friends happened to be at the jetty. they all saw.

he knew. he knew that he broke his promise. he was full of anger.

he went home reeking of alcohol and cigarette smoke. he saw his wife. he hugged her. cried. he became that kind of adult afterall.

that was only one scene of the movie but it hit me so much.

i always board the train, the bus, walked around in malls, and see people as ugly as can be. and i tell myself that 'i'm not gonna *insert behavior here* like he/she did when i grow up'

but seriously, who really knows? 3 years later i may be the one captured in a video posted on Youtube being laughed at for arguing with someone for a seat in the train.

scary.
