Prince Natsuki is looking for his princess.
Princess Koharu says that she is here. Riding on his white horse,
Natsuki says no, it isn’t her. “Where’s my princess!? Ah, I found her.”
It is Saionji. Calling Aki his princess, Natsuki asks her if she wants
to go on a journey with him. Soon, Natsuki goes to his castle with Aki.
Koharu can only helplessly call for him to wait for her. Then, Koharu
wakes up from her dream by calling out to Natsuki. Natsuki looks down on
her and says that he’s here. It turns out that Koharu has fallen down
from her bed. Natsuki tells her that it is already morning. He tells her
that she really slept in such an unsightly manner and it shows on her
face. Koharu quickly covers her face with the blanket. Climbing back
into the balcony, he teases her of being in such deep sleep with him in a
beautiful dream that she doesn’t want to wake up but they’ll be late.
Koharu mutters that it isn’t a beautiful dream. Lying down on the bed,
Koharu laments that he is really a guy who doesn’t understand one’s
feelings. “Natsuki-chan, you idiot.” And the school bell rings. In the
committee room, Nishina tells the members that they will help in the
preparation for the sports festival. They were asked to do a borrowing
item race type of thing and also purchase things for the
make-up[/cosplay?] assembly. Koharu complains that it seems that they
are being made to do thousands of committee work. Natsuki adds that it
is all miscellaneous work and it seems that they were deceived. Nishina
just tells them that on that day, the students will be doing it so
please. Aki volunteers to go. Nishina thanks her for the help. Just when
Koharu is also about to volunteer, Natsuki says that he’ll also go.
This surprises Koharu. Aki thanks him. Natsuki says that someone has to
carry all those stuff. Nishina says that Natsuki is such a good guy.
Natsuki asks if he isn’t going to. Nishina excuses himself by saying
that he still has work. Just when Natsuki is about to leave with Aki,
Koharu doesn’t like the idea that the two of them will go. She quickly
shouts that she’ll go, too because after all, this is committee work so
during this time, everyone should go.
At a mall, all four committee members are there. Natsuki comments
that it is quite unexpectedly for Koharu to say ‘as a committee member’
and be serious about it. Koharu tells him that he’s being rude for she
is always serious. Looking at a list, Aki asks where they should go
first. While Natsuki is talking with Aki, Koharu nervously thinks that
it is because she felt that right now, she shouldn’t let the two of them
alone and it is because she has seen that scene – Natsuki hugging Aki.
At a store, Natsuki happily tells them that he is cosplaying as a
Phantom [thief] Natsuki. Then, he changes into a butler costume.
Clapping, Koharu says that cosplaying is really interesting and Natsuki
is good at it. Aki says that it seems that they can purchase everything
they need here for the makeup assembly. Posing, Natsuki says that
wearing this really makes him look good. Blushing, Koharu thinks that he
looks really handsome and she is so happy to see many
stances[/appearances] of Natsuki. Koharu teases him by saying that
clothes make the man. Natsuki tells her that she’s quite mean. Then,
Koharu becomes flustered when Aki tells Natsuki that it really suits
him, and he looks really handsome in it. Koharu can only think that she
also thought he is handsome. To the girls’ surprise, Natsuki decides to
play along by saying, “Then.. if [I’m] needed, you can send a sincere
imperial decree, Aki-ojousama.” Aki blushes. Natsuki grins to tell her
that he’s joking then smiles over this. It made Koharu uneasy for why is
Natsuki showing that kind of expression and why is Aki blushing really
red. “In the end, during that time, something has happened between them,
right? Even if I really wanted to ask clearly about it, but our line of
sight hasn’t met. *Koharu seems like a third wheel as Natsuki and Aki
are talking. Natsuki is asking Aki to cosplay but she declines.* I have a
bad premonition.” Later on, Natsuki says that they have finished buying
the clothes so they are now going to buy the props for the borrowing
item race. Koharu suggests that it will be more efficient if they split
into two. Natsuki agrees with her for it isn’t easy for them to go
through all the floors of the mall.
Koharu is happy about this until Natsuki whispers to her if it will
be alright for she isn’t good in dealing with Touya. Koharu realizes
that Natsuki doesn’t plan on going with her but rather, he’ll be going
with Aki. In pain, Koharu doesn’t want that so she quickly turns around
and tells Touya that they are leaving. Natsuki calls out to Koharu but
they already left. Natsuki mutters that it seems that Koharu will be
fine being alone with that guy. Aki has seen Koharu’s pained expression
earlier, and she looks a bit sad-flustered. Koharu doesn’t want to stay
there for she is afraid to keep on watching those two. At the park by
the bench, Touya comments that is like the Sa’en [literally three apes].
Aghast Koharu is going ‘do not want to hear, speak nor see’. [<-
three wise monkey = see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil] Koharu
asks him what is the Sa’en. To her shock, he tells her that it is
monkey. Just when she is going to shout that he’s being rude, Koharu
stops and gloomily says that he can just do as he pleases. Touya
comments that she is so easy to understand. Koharu looks at him and is
surprised that he is gone. She thinks that she really isn’t go at
dealing with him for she totally doesn’t know what he is thinking.
“Compared with being together with Natsuki, it is more relaxed. And this
is the first time I felt this feeling.. without Natsuki around, I
unexpectedly felt that I can sigh in relief.” Then, she is surprised to
see someone offering her some ice cream. It is Touya who also has his
own ice cream. Holding the ice cream, Koharu exclaims if it is for her.
Touya says that her voice is too loud. Thanking him, Koharu thinks that
she really couldn’t understand this guy and by the way, it turns out
that he also eats ice cream. Touya tells her that it is no big deal.
“Actually, there is no deep meaning to it, right? The reason why Sugiura
didn’t choose to go with you. Saionji and I have not come to this store
before so I thought that if we are to separate into two groups, it
ought to be separated this way and [the guys] can also carry things.”
Koharu looks surprised and says is that so. To her surprise, Touya
suddenly gives his ice cream to her. She asks if he ate half of it, or
rather, did he even ate it. Touya says that he has things to do so he is
going ahead. He tells her to give that ice cream to Natsuki before it
melts for she can’t finish it all by herself.
Walking to find the two, Koharu wonders if Touya is actually not a
bad person and in the end, and in the end, if they don’t talk, one
cannot understand the other person. “That’s right. It is the same with
that thing [Natsuki hugging Aki] if I didn’t ask Natsuki and others
clearly about it, I won’t be able to understand. Perhaps, maybe it is
just that the contact lens have been dropped or not preparing
something..” Then, she sees Natsuki and Aki. Just when she is about to
call them, she stops to see Natsuki confronting flustered Aki by patting
her head. As the ice cream melts on her hand, Koharu thinks that the
premonition has come true. In the cafe, Tomo hands over a drink and
comments that Aki looks awful. Taking the drink, Aki apologizes for the
hassle. Natsuki says that while they were shopping, Aki suddenly squat
down and thankfully, their house is nearby. Tomo says that the store
hasn’t opened yet so she can take her time and rest. Aki thanks him.
Koharu asks her if she is alright. Aki says yes and thanks her. Koharu
smiles. Koharu thinks that it turns out that Aki wasn’t feeling well
that is why Natsuki did that. Then, Natsuki gives Aki a mug of honey
milk which is effective for lack of sleep. “Since this morning, you
looked as if you didn’t have any sleep so I’m very worried.” Koharu
looks surprised and Aki blushes. Koharu thinks that since he has noticed
it since this morning, and that means Natsuki has always been paying
attention to Aki. Koharu looks flustered over slightly blushing Natsuki.
Aki is feeling uneasy that she quickly stands up. She apologizes and
claims that she is alright. Then, she loses her balance. Natsuki quickly
catches her. He says that she is obviously not alright for she is still
staggering. “Go to my room and sleep there.” Koharu can only wish that
she quickly wake up from this dream and her premonition is coming true.
Tomo looks somewhat concerned over Koharu. Sitting in front of Natsuki’s
room, Koharn wonders over the reason why she doesn’t want to see those
two together. “Generally, from the start, I have already become aware of
it. *peeks in the room to see Natsuki blushing* It’s because I’m also
in love so I know Nat-chan has fallen in love with Saionji-chan.”
