Transcript of Annie Asking Dr. Nanji Why He Rises Early and Keeps Her Things

Annie: You sense me being very close to you.

Dr. Nanji: Especially when I go to sleep.

Annie: Ah, when you are with me most of the time. But you still get up early.

Dr. Nanji: I, I must get up early because…

Annie: Why so early?

Dr. Nanji: Because I am not able to sleep like normal people, eight hours. You see, when you get my age, ah, the total number of sleep hours is half.

Annie: Well, I don’t know. You have to get up, I suppose, but, eh…I sometimes think, you know, why is he so early?

Dr. Nanji: You see if I don’t, don’t sleep then I might just as well get up…

Annie: You know you don’t, eh, how you say, um, my things in the wardrobe.

Dr. Nanji: Oh, yes.

Annie: You still keep.

Dr. Nanji: Yes, I have them.

Annie: Why? Why…

Dr. Nanji: Yes, I have them.

Annie: …for so long?

Dr. Nanji: And they’re just the same.

Annie: I know but, eh…

Dr. Nanji: They’re just the same.

Annie: I…sometimes I wonder why you keep them so long.

Dr. Nanji: Well…

Annie: I know why, of course. But, eh, it seems a pity. Someone could make use them, eh? But you won’t give them away, huh?

Dr. Nanji: Yes.
