Hibi Chouchou [Chapter 48]

While Suiren looks at the necklace, Kawasumi notices her melonpan and drink. He walks toward it and asks if she hasn’t finished eating lunch. He gives her the melonpan. While he sits beside her, Suiren starts to eat her melonpan. She glances at him as he somewhat dozes off. She takes the box and takes out the necklace. Kawasumi sees her trying to put it on in vain. She blushes upon noticing that he’s looking at her. He offers to do it for her. After he says that it’s done, he notices that he’s way too close to her. This made him blush and back away. He stands up and wants to apologize but then, isn’t it strange for him to apologize, and it won’t be very strange. Since Suiren isn’t reacting, he bends down to her and ends up apologizing. Suiren shakes her head. Kawasumi sits in front of her and tells her that it is really okay for her to hit him. They face each other and Suiren just pulls his shirt and goes near to him. Suiren[?/Kawasumi] thinks that she feels very strange as if they are simply not themselves, as if there’s a change? Kawasumi holds up his hand and holds her head to him. Soon, it is spring break. Suiren is lovingly staring at the necklace box. Aya is so bored that she should have looked for work. While munching on a rice cracker, Aya notices moping Yuri that she asks her why she’s so gloomy for wasn’t she singing about ‘winter break’ non-stop during the last long vacation break. Yuri mutters that she passed. Aya says, ya. Yuri says that she totally doesn’t want to change section for she always wanted to be first year. Aya says that is perplexing. Yuri starts muttering that they have five sections and the possibility for them to be together in one section is one-fifth. While saying yes, Aya thinks that actually, the odds are much lower. Suiren starts to become uneasy over this possibility. Wanting to cheer them up, Aya asks if the fortune [omikuji] they got is related to this and she got ‘great blessing’. Yuri says that she got ‘middle blessing’, how about Suiren. They are aghast for it is ‘small blessing’. Aya now tells them that it has nothing to do with the fortune. Yuri nervously says that’s right, and even if they are separated, they can still eat together at the roof. She tearfully says but in the end, she wants to be together with the two of them.
Aya comforts her and wipes her tears. Suiren thinks that it is good if they are classmates and what is Kawasumi doing during the times she doesn’t see..could he be thinking of her occasionally. Outside, Kawasumi asks Ryosuke if he isn’t going home. Ryosuke says ya and he won’t go home together with him during spring break. Just when Kawasumi is puzzled, Mina calls out to Ryosuke. He apologizes to her that practice ended up a bit late and Mina tells him that it is totally okay. The two are lovey-dovey, and then Ryosuke notices that Kawasumi is gone. Kawasumi arrives home. Atohira, together with Ichi, welcomes him home. Atohira asks if he isn’t going on a date today, and does he want to eat ramen together with them. Kawasumi declines. Kawasumi glances at Ichi then at the telephone. He picks it up and recalls how he held Suiren’s head. Blushing, he puts the phone down. It is spring and another school year ahead of them. They have release the forms as to which section they are in. Yuri exclaims what her section is. Aya says, 2-C. Yuri glomps her and shouts that they are classmates. Her smile freezes upon seeing Suiren’s expression..Suiren is in 2-D. In front of 2-D, Suiren bawls out to Suiren that she doesn’t want this, this is too mean. Aya nervously tells Suiren to go ahead. Suiren quietly goes in her classroom. Later on, it turns out that Ryosuke is also in 2-C. Back in 2-D, the guys are happy that they are in the same section as Suiren. Suiren is startled when someone taps her back. It is a black haired girl who introduces herself as Sotomura Meguna. She says that she always wanted to try talking with Suiren. Meguna tells her ‘yoroshiku’ [/please to meet you] and can she call her Suiren-chan. [<- first name means they are close] Suiren just nods. Back in 2-C, Ryosuke asks which section is Suiren in. Yuri tearfully tells him section D. This surprises Ryosuke. In 2-D, Meguna is asking Suiren what foundation [cosmetics] she is using. Then, there is some bustling noise at the side. Suiren looks to the side to see Kawasumi entering the classroom.
Comment: And, they are classmates this time around. ^^ That opens the possibility of more chances to be together especially during group activities. In a way, like what Aya mentioned, the fortunes predicted the chances for them to be in the same classroom. As for the first part, as usual, they’re so sweet and cute. There is a bit of progress but not quite as evident during the spring break. Well, it seems that Ryosuke is going steady with Mina. The potential problem would be the new girl, Meguna. Will she be a love rival or a friend who wants a lot of attention? Maybe she’ll teach Suiren about make-up to make her irresistible for Kawasumi? =P Scans by allwink

  11. Thanks, Kat for your summaries. This manga is so cute. I was feeling refreshed reading it after reading so many heart breaking/frustrating ones about girls and guys trying to come between the hero/heroine. I'm hoping this one will stay sweet and kind, just to give my heart a break from drama lol. I hope they kiss eventually. It'll be a blushing, shocking event since hugging causes them so much embarrassment :).
