Chihiro: Listen, Haku. I don’t remember it, but my mom told me. Once, when I was little, I fell into a river. She said they’d drained it and built things on top. But I’ve just remembered. The river was called, its’s name was the Kohaku River. Your real name is Kohaku.
Haku: Chihiro, thank you. My real name is Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi.
Chihiro: Nigihayami?
Haku: Nigihayami Kohaku Nushi.
Chihiro: What a name. Sounds like a god.
Haku: I remember too, how you fell into me as a child. You had dropped your shoe.
Chihiro: Yes, you carried me to shallow water, Kohaku. I’m so grateful!(via teapartyintherabbithole)
