Ama quotes from Shuffle!

Ama

Oh, is that Rin on the phone? It is? Hi Rin! Congratulations! I heard the good news.

Asa

Mother!

Rin

Ama?

Asa

Well, talk to you later Rin, by now.

Rin

Hey, wait a minute, Asa. Hello. Hello? Man, does everybody in town think we're getting married?

Kaede

[answering phone] Hi there, is that you Rin?

Rin

It's me. Asa's mom invited me to stay here and have dinner with them tonight so I don't really need you to make anything for me. [to Ama] If I ate all that, I'll explode.

Ama

A boy your age should be able to eat twice this much. I expect you to clean your plate.

Asa

She'll make you do it too.

Ama

Tell me young man, do you love my daughter? Well?

Rin

That's a good question, I don't really have an answer yet.

Ama

Come on, you're a boy, she's a girl, how hard can it be?

Ama

Am I worried? Any mother would be scared to death right now, Rin. She's frightened and in so much pain. Of course I'm worried about her.

Rin

Ama.

Ama

If I could take her place, I would in a heart beat. If doing it would make her better, believe me, I'd do it and not care for one second about myself. I'd gladly give Asa my life. I've always tried to be there for her, like any mother would. But I'm not the one who can help her. I'm sorry, but Rin, Asa doesn't need help from me. The person she needs is you.

Rin

What?

Ama

You're the only one that can save her.

Rin

I tried, but Asa won't listen.

Ama

Asa's stubborn, but please don't give up. She'll come around, just keep trying. The two of you share a special bond of love, that's why she'll listen.

Rin

You all keep saying that. It's not true, I can't do any more for her than you can.

Ama

You're wrong about that. I think part of you knows that even now, Asa is more important to you than anyone else in the world and you'll find a way to save her because you have to.

Rin

If I can, I will.

Ama

Rin, save Asa. I know you can. I love her so much, bring her back.
