"Love".
[LAUGHTER]
A butterfly grows up on the other side of the bullet train
tracks, lulled to sleep each evening
by the intermittent swish of a train sliding by.
As an adolescent butterfly, he is often praised by his coaches
and finds himself on the track and field
team which is where he develops his own special technique
for flying.
His is a no flutter even flapping technique
with a highly developed sense of micro currents.
And soon, he's recognized all the world over
as a high speed champion.
He's going to the butterfly Olympics,
the neighbors say to each other as they hear him speed by.
One day, he takes some time off from practice
to be with his girlfriend and they spend the day playing
in the wake of the passing bullet trains.
One way that the story continues is
that a beautiful bouquet of flowers
lures the girlfriend butterfly inside an open train door
just as the door closes and takes off,
girlfriend trapped inside.
The other way that the story continues
is that the girlfriend, having grown sick of her boyfriend's
arrogant ways, has already decided
that she has had enough of him and that she'd rather
start a new life for herself wherever
the train may take her.
In either case, if she goes inside the train traveling
the bullet train at bullet train speeds.
The boy butterfly chases after the bullet
train with his specially developed high speed flying
technique, as only he could do.
Any other butterfly would have given up before even starting,
but this butterfly has confidence.
And more than that, he has love, his true and undying love
for his one and only sweetheart.
He chases after the train and gives it everything
he's got and then some.
Unfortunately, the train does not stop for a long, long time.
If it is the case that the girlfriend intended
to leave him, we are probably slightly relieved
to know that he will never know the truth
as he continues his chase after the train,
flying faster than any butterfly has ever flown before.
If only the Olympic judges could time him now.
As testament to his true and undying love,
the butterfly flies after the train for as far
as he can for as long as he can.
The definition of this is that by the time he finally stops,
he's on the very brink of butterfly death.
He can no longer fly and fades to the ground, landing
beside a delicate flower which he does not see
through the tears in his eyes.
He shakes his tightly clenched butterfly fists at the sky
before exhaling his very last breath.
On the other side of the train tracks,
a man is being interviewed.
So what are your hobbies?
I like to give blood.
You don't say?
Yes, I've done it 106 times so far.
