Uki asks Iriya how come he started
to call her as ‘Makoto’ [<- use first name = they are closer]. Makoto
remembers that Iriya has been calling her that since yesterday. Iriya says that
it is because it is a cute name so he wanted to call it, that’s all. Makoto
says that it feels like he really dotes[/spoil] her. Iriya says that he want to
give her a whole 16 year worth of doting. Makoto is puzzled why he would do
that but then, she really wants to record his voice saying, ‘Makoto’. During
clean-up time, Yusa complains of being hungry that Iriya asks if he is already
finished cleaning his classroom. Yusa says that he saw Iriya from the window
but he’s helping so don’t worry. Uki suggests that they hang out somewhere on
the way home. Glancing at Iriya, Makoto is shy about asking Iriya for she might
be thought of as some pervert but then, since he said that he’ll dote on her
and luckily, she’s his girlfriend. Holding her cellphone tight, Makoto stares
at Iriya who notices her. He goes to her and asks what it is. Holding her
cellphone, Makoto says that she wants to record him saying, ‘Makoto’. This
surprises Iriya that he asks, his voice, record, now? Thinking that it is too
far-fetched, Makoto explains that it is only for pleasure and she won’t use it
for any other thing. She is going to set it as her morning alarm clock and she
won’t use it for any bad thing. Makoto is aghast that for her to say bad thing,
it seems like she is going to use it for something bad. “I’m so stupid. In the
end, I should have not said that..” Iriya asks for her phone and asks if it is
okay whatever he would say on it. Makoto asks if it is okay. After figuring out
how to record, Iriya says on the phone, “If you don’t get up, I’m going to eat
you up, MAKOTO♡” Makoto freaks out over that. She thinks that if she
hears that early in the morning, her heart might stop. She nervously tells him
to say something ordinary like ‘quickly wake up’. Iriya laughs and says okay,
something ordinary. Iriya start to say, “Makoto, wake” Furious Yusa grabs the
cellphone and throws it away before Iriya can finish what he’s saying. It fell
into the water fountain. While Makoto picks it up, Uki angrily shouts what he
is doing. Yusa says that his hand slipped. Iriya angrily says, ‘hey’ in a low
tone with three stars degree of anger. Iriya grabs Yusa’s collar and says, why
you.. Makoto tells him not to be angry for actually, she is planning to change
her cellphone for she has extra money from work so it is alright.
Iriya tells her to wait until New Year to buy it because the
electronic store above the train station would have a discount sale on New
Year. Makoto says is that so. Iriya says that they can also go to hatsumode
[first shrine visit] together. Delighted Makoto says okay. Yusa is aghast over
how things turned out. He screams and calls himself an idiot. Uki sighs and
says that there’s nothing can be done with Yusa. Nanami comments that it seems
that she is nice to him today because usually, she would at least punch him.
Uki says that it is because yesterday, he.. After a pause, she says that some
things happened. Nanami is puzzled over this. So, after a lot of things
happened, this year has ended. It is now, New Year. Makoto meets up with Iriya.
While riding on the train, they felt that it has been a long time since they’ve
seen each other because she has no cellphone so they couldn’t send text. Bunny
says that obviously it is already enough to call each other. Then, they
exchange, ‘yoroshiku’ [I’ll be in your care] this year. At the shrine, Iriya is
surprised over how many times Makoto is clapping as she tosses in the offering.
Makoto is thinking that she must properly thank God. They got fortunes
[omikuji]. Makoto got ‘middle blessing’ while Iriya got ‘blessing’. Iriya says
that before they buy the cellphone, how about going someplace first like to
drink tea or something. Makoto says okay, for she wants to drink something hot
and steaming. While walking and Iriya is saying that there are many people
there, Makoto sees a couple women wearing beautiful kimonos. She wants to wear
one next year but then how does one wear a kimono. Looking at the women, Makoto
plans to research on it when she goes home. Then, she suddenly bumps into
someone. She turns to apologize but the guy has dropped his camera on the floor
and the lens was broken. Freaking out, Makoto apologizes again. Picking up the
camera, the guy, Shouki, says that it is alright, he is also not paying
attention so don’t mind it. Makoto insists that she’ll pay for it. She is
freaking out though since it looks very expensive. Shouki tells her that
there’s really no need to for he actually wanted to throw it away. They are
surprised that he suddenly fainted. Iriya quickly catches him and asks if he is
alright. Shouki apologizes and says that he hasn’t eaten for three days. He
looks at Makoto and calls her, Rika. Makoto thinks for him to call her Rika and
Rika told her that her boyfriend is a photographer, could it be that he’s...
Shouki faints while saying that he’s very hungry. Iriya and Makoto look
surprised at each other.
Comment: It is
really nice how Makoto intentionally thanks her sister for her help with Iriya.
What Iriya told her seems to have broken her ‘inferiority complex’ with her
sister. ^^ It is really nice of him that he plans to make up for the
‘doting/spoiling’ that Makoto missed out from her parents all those years. And
what he recorded on the cellphone..the first one. That is a good one that it
makes me wonder how experienced is Iriya with girls. I guess it helped that
Iriya had a lot of girlfriends before and given his past, he has a tendency to
please them..well, he knows how to do it. =P Yusa is still jealous as usual
though it seems that something happened between him and Uki..not necessarily
romantic though. New Year is going well..until someone literally faints on
them. I wonder if Shouki was dumped by Rika that he is depressed enough to not
eat and no longer want to become a photographer. ^^; Unless, it is work-related
= he got fired. Rika ought to be surprised if they brought him to Makoto’s
house. Actually, I don’t think they can carry around an unconscious guy =P So,
they’ll probably treat him to some food and hear his sob story. If his problem is
Rika-related, I think the two might help him and Rika out as a return thanks
for what she did for them. Scans by all★wink汉化组

For those who have helped you, take time to give them
thanks. ~ Our Daily Bread
Thank you for the summary. Iriya made me laugh so hard what he said (the first one) on Makato's recording phone. I can't wait for a next chapter to see what happens :) <3 Tika
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading, Tika ^-^
DeleteYa, that was pretty good ^^
Iriya is getting bolder showing his affections for Makoto xD Although it makes me wonder too how experienced he is with girls >.< I like that Iriya is spoiling Makoto, it just shows how much he cares for her. I really adore Makoto's character. She's a really kind person and really adorable when it comes to Iriya ^^ I wonder what happened to Shouki...for him to collapse like that..I guess it's time to focus a little bit about Rika's life?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the summary kat! :)
Indeed. Yup ^^
DeleteIt seems that it will focus a bit on Rika.
