Title: 2 people in a dream. [This is
before Yamaken came to the school->] In the classroom,
Yano[/Shitayanagi] gave Haru a notebook which contains the notes that he
missed while he was absent. Haru is touched by that for Yano is
unexpectedly nice to him. Taking the notebook, Haru thanks him and says
that he’ll treasure it forever. “Oh ya, I also brought a souvenir back.”
Yano asks if it is a NASA autograph. Haru says that it is nori [/laver
or seaweed sheets used for sushi or can be eaten by itself]. Yano is
quite speechless while holding a pack of nori. At the door, Asako tells
Haru that this nori is delicious. Haru notices that Shizuku passes by
and uses the notebook to cover her face so that Haru won’t see her. Haru
goes to the door to look at her and she quickly walks away. It turns
out that Shizuku is eating nori, too. =P At the art room, Asako is
making an outrageous pose as Shizuku tries to draw her. Asako asks her
if she doesn’t want to reconcile with Haru, and is she ‘doing nothing
but smile’. Somewhat irritated Shizuku says that she knows, she knows
but knowing is one thing but she just seeing Haru’s face, her legs would
start to tremble. Asako exclaims that it is alright for if she is
really hated, and even if it is possible that until graduation, he also
won’t look at her but she, no matter when, will make this her own issue,
and she is already prepared to grumble. [<- I think that she means
if Haru snubs Shizuku, Asako will bug Haru yet still be with Shizuku]
This made Shizuku aghast and depressed. While copying a ridiculous pose
by a male classmate, Sasayan tells Shizuku that it is alright for he
thinks that Haru definitely also wants to reconcile with her. Shizuku
blushes a bit over this and Asako pouts [<- probably because Sasayan
is more comforting than her]. While walking at the hallway, feeling
light Shizuku thinks that since Sasayan said that, it is most probably
true. She decides to quickly find Haru. By the window, a couple of girls
are telling Haru to move to the right a bit and quickly save it. Haru
is on the branch of a tree trying to reach out to the cat. Haru tells
them that if he moves forward, he will fall down. While the cat is
meow-ing, Haru notices Shizuku quickly running away at the hallway.
This made Haru become aghast for it seems that Shizuku is really
angry for she really doesn’t want to even look at him. “Ya, this is
something inevitable. *flashback of Haru saying that they all go to
hell* In the end, I have said that kind of mean words. *jumps down the
tree after saving the cat* I’m already prepared to be scolded. And be
healed. *lies down on the ground while touching the cat’s paw. Nagoya
the chicken looks displeased* Even if I’m used to people avoiding me but
I totally can’t just ignore it. If this keeps up, it will be hard to
break up this current situation.” Some students including Sasayan pass
by and wonder what Haru is doing. Still lying on the ground, Haru tells
the chicken and the cat to stop fighting over him. =P Haru sits up and
thinks, okay, be healed [by her]. Delinquent looking Haru goes to her
classroom and says, “Shizuku, come here for a while. *looks at the side*
..I’ve got something to tell you.” Everyone looks surprised. After
recovering from her surprise, Shizuku slams her book on the table and
thinks that it is good that Haru came first. In a serious pose, Shizuku
says okay. The other students are whispering if it is a fight and this
is quite strange. Forming a fist, Shizuku looks at Asako and thinks that
she’ll do her best. Teary-eyed Asako forms a fist back at her. Sasayan
and others continue to eat Nori [from Haru]. Later on, Haru and Shizuku
are sitting behind the school building. They are all quiet and Shizuku
wonders where to start [saying].. “Even if I’m very happy that Haru came
first to see me. Right now, what is he thinking..” Shizuku looks at
Haru who hide his head in the hood with the strings pulled. ^^;; Puzzled
Shizuku looks away and becomes aghast. Haru then pulls down his hood.
He thinks that if she hates seeing his face, then it would be better to
hide it but then, doing that is difficult. “..besides, it has already
been such a long time I haven’t seen her. Is it my imagination? She’s so
cute.” Shizuku is thinking that it seems for a second there, she saw
him wearing something. While she is thinking of wanting to go back[/he
is back to normal], Haru wonders what’s up with his brain for he feels
like wanting to touch her and it must be the power of Shizuku’s style.
The two shake their head and think no, now isn’t the time to do that.
Haru says, “About that, I’m sorry, Shizuku.” Shizuku looks at him and
blushes. She says, “..ya, I also want to apologize to you.” Haru looks
at her. Then, the two [cutely] turns around to face each other ^^ Haru
smiles and says that it is really great that she isn’t angry. Shizuku
says ya, and she thought that he hated her. They look at each other
then, moves back to their original places.
Haru asks her what the reason for her anger is. “I’m sorry that I
didn’t properly listen to what you’re saying at that time.” Shizuku says
about that, it is nothing and it isn’t important. “I’m sorry. Actually,
you didn’t do anything wrong. It is my own problem.” Haru looks at her
and says, “Let me tell you, for me, your problem is also my problem. I
think that way because I’m quite afraid that this same thing will happen
again. No matter what reason is, it is okay. I hope that you’ll tell
me. I want to know your feelings.” As the wind blows the leaves, Shizuku
looks surprised and speechless. The school bell rings. Haru calls out
her name and Shizuku looks nervous. Just when she is about to say
something, Shizuku quickly stands up and exclaims that the school bell
has already rang. She apologizes to him for she has to go to class. As
Shizuku leaves, nervous Haru mutters if she is going to class now. He
looks up the sky and lies down on the ground. He wonders if the way he
asked is wrong. In class, while trying to read, Shizuku thinks, “My..my
feelings. Why why. Can I say it like this ‘Haru and I aren’t the same,
I’m jealous of you’? Is it really okay for me to say that again? Won’t
he hate me? This thing called feelings, how should it be conveyed?” And,
it is the school dismissal. The students are looking at Yamaken who is
waiting by the gate. Iyo comes out and asks her brother if he came to
look for her. Yamaken tells her to quickly go home. “Listen well. Go
straight home today. Just quickly go without looking back.” Iyo
complains what’s up with that for he always ignores her. As the other
students are muttering about Yamaken, Yamaken gets irritated that they
are all looking at him and it isn’t like, he likes standing there. A
girl asks him why he is at their school. Yamaken just smiles and says
that he is waiting for someone. Then, Shizuku passes by and greets him.
She asks him what he is doing there and it is too eye-catching for him
to be there while wearing his school uniform. She tells him to stand
farther away if he wants to surprise someone. Yamaken tells her that he
specially came to see her. “If I didn’t do this, I won’t be able to see
you.” After climbing over the fence, Haru is shock for Shizuku
unexpectedly nicely went away with Yamaken. Just when he is about to
charge at them, Haru stops and thinks, “If I chased after them, what can
I do?” He looks at the side to see shock Asako and Sasayan &
friends looking at his direction.
At the coffee shop, Asako is muttering what Yamaken and Shizuku are
talking about. They are hiding behind the bushes while the two [S&Y]
are buying their drinks inside. She scolds Haru for dilly-dallying that
the two had already gone in the store. Thinking that he wants to go
home, Haru timidly apologizes. Sasayan laughs and exclaims that it is
like playing a spy game. Haru asks Sasayan why he is also there. Sasayan
says that [club] is on a exam break and he is very worried over all
sorts of things. Haru exclaims that Sasayan is fooling him for he
[Sasayan] faintly knows since he [Sasayan] is emitting the same aura as
Yuuzan. Sasayan denies it and claims that half of it is goodwill. Asako
exclaims that they are coming out. Yamaken and Shizuku sit at a table
outside the coffee store [al fresco style]. While Shizuku is happy [but
not showing it] over Starrucks coffee, she is ranting something about a
guide book published is the same as the one during 05, is because it is
the same editor. Yamaken thinks that even if he got her to go out but
she is talking of such a limited topic, and she gradually is talking of
things that interest her. “Besides that, from just now, I saw something
hiding at that side. [<- Asako and Haru’s hair can be seen above the
bushes.] It is already enough. *drinks coffee* For didn’t I already do
this, and it is already at this step.” Shizuku spits out her drink when
Yamaken asks her what happened afterwards between her and Haru. Shizuku
nervously looks at him and tells him that she thinks that they generally
should have already reconciled. Yamaken looks a bit sad. He says,
“About that, you also definitely think that I’m more compatible for you.
Always repeating this unknown significant[/insignificant] thing, for
you guys to be like this, this isn’t called love. *Shizuku looks
surprised* I came to tell you to please try going steady with me once.”
By the bushes, Asako whines about totally not hearing what those two are
saying. Asako scolds Haru for being always silent from the start. “Is
it really okay that you didn’t go and stop them!?” While Sasayan is
drinking his juice, Haru didn’t reply and just look up. Yamaken looks
tense and Shizuku seems to be thinking. Blurbs: It seems that there will
be a popularity poll being held here [http://tk-touhyou.com] for

postcard of character voted + autograph. Also, it seems that the next
chapter will have more pages.
Sasayan’s side story: Sasayan has a lot of friends. He likes
going to school but hates exams. The things that he think about..very
common things. During first year, from the school building, Sasayan and
others look at Asako as she heads to school. Yano says that Asako is so
cute and he’s lucky to have her as his classmate. Sasayan admits that
she is indeed cute. Their friends say that Asako had dumped a lot of
guys, too many to count, and it appears that she hates guys. Sasayan
thinks that he likes the open-minded[/easygoing] type more. Then, they
say that it is Haru..and who’s the person always with him..ah yes,
Mizutani. In class, Asako drops her eraser on the floor. Sasayan picks
it up and tells her, ‘here, your eraser’. Asako snubs him. Sasayan
nervously wonders why he was snubbed and what he should say in times
like this. He angrily thinks that this is terrible. And not at all
because of karma, he unexpectedly become ‘friends’ with this kind of
girl. [During school festival?], Sasayan calls Asako on the phone to
help him out a bit in buying things for the others are not dependable.
Later on, Sasayan and Asako were walking together. Sasayan is pulling
his bicycle along with the lumber on it. They walk silently. Sasayan
thinks that he isn’t an expert in dealing with this kind of person.
Aside from Haru and Shizuku, Asako won’t smile towards anyone else. He
also thinks that if he can become good friends with her, he will thank
heavens for it and he totally doesn’t know what she is thinking. Asako
tells him that for her to be friends with Haru and Shizuku, her everyday
has become astonishing satisfying. Because it’s quite rare, to have
very good relationship with those two that she also wants to be friendly
in associating with others. Sasayan looks surprised. He says then, how
about they also become friends. Asako asks if it is okay. Thinking that
she is normal, Sasayan says ya. Asako happily says that’s great for
actually, she specially worried over what if he likes her. Sasayan’s
smile freezes. Holding up her arms, Asako exclaims that there is a
possibility of there being a guy who will first start out as a friend
and then, would ‘attack’ later on. “Ah, I also asking you, Sasayan-kun
to give up on that kind of thinking.” Sasayan says, “Ah, I think I
possibly won’t [do that].” Narration: “At one side, I have said some
things, and possibly at that time, I couldn’t help but like her.
(generally) About the rest of the story, I’ll tell you about it again
next time.”
