Kawasumi tells her that there is club activity, went to the
riverside to fish, and he also went camping. Suiren thinks that is really nice.
She imagines the two of them fishing in a happy and relaxed way. She also wants
to go but it is inevitable since currently, they are in cool-off stage. Kawasumi
tells her that during summer period, he is working in the morning. She asks him
about it. He tells her that he is delivering newspapers. Suiren thinks that is
amazing. Suiren thinks that when they arrive at the shrine, it is already
totally dark and she can gradually hear the ballad sound [of the insects],
added with the sounds of the people and the vendor stalls. She is feeling a bit
restless. Standing in front of a masks booth, Kawasumi asks her if she wants to
buy one. Suiren shakes her head. Kawasumi turns away and says that he didn’t
think that they can still go here together again. Looking at his back figure,
Suiren thinks that today, she wants to hear what Kawasumi is thinking in his
heart. “As he spend the summer vacation, what did he think of? What he feels
for me.. did it change?”
Then, Ryosuke, together with Mina, calls out to the couple.
Kawasumi asks Ryosuke about his younger brother. Ryosuke says that Shunsuke [guesswork
from 俊介]
went with his friend. Ryousuke asks if there is [barbecue] cuttlefish at that
side. Then, he exclaims if it is okay for Suiren not to wear a mask. Suiren
nods. Kawasumi tells him that it is very strange if she wears a mask while
wearing a yukata. Ryosuke worriedly says that those guys from school will also
come and could it be that they don’t want them to think that they’ve broken up.
Looking around, Ryosuke says that it is for real, but it is better to wear it on.
Mina tells him that he’s worrying too much. Ryosuke denies it. Kawasumi assures
him that it is alright. Ryosuke says okay, then, they also enjoy themselves as
much as possible. After the two left, Kawasumi mutters that is right, and this
rarely happens [/rare for them to come here]. He asks Suiren what she wants to
play, how about that catching goldfish type of thing. Blushing Suiren looks at
him and says, then..
At a shooting gallery, the stall owner greets them and
compliments Suiren’s beauty. As Suiren struggles in using the gun, Kawasumi
tells her to pull that. Suiren is nervous and doesn’t know how to do it so
Kawasumi asks her to let him do it. She blushes as Kawasumi looks cool in
pulling the gun to get it ready for shooting. He asks her what she likes. She
tells him that it is the one above. He asks if it is the star. She says yes. He
gets ready to shoot it and it was a hit. Kawasumi happily says that he got it.
He gives the star doll to her. She happily holds it and did a little happy
dance. Getting the gun ready again, he asks her if she wants to try. She shoots
and misses two times. She is shock that Kawasumi is suppressing his laughter.
She asks him about going to the other side. Kawasumi smiles as he follows her.
Soon, he watches her fish a balloon with a hook. She manages to get one. She
happily shows it to Kawasumi. And, she does her happy dance again. To her
shock, Kawasumi comments that she is quite strange. She asks in what way. She
wonders if suddenly dancing is an example of it. He says no, he should say
that, didn’t he say before, he really likes the her, being like that.
Aghast Suiren asks like what? He sweatdrops and says that
rather than saying distance.. [<- not sure if he is saying ‘distance’ or ‘cooling
off’] But, he drops the topic and starts to walk ahead. Suiren wonders if it is
the same feeling as before. Kawasumi suddenly turns around and holds her hand.
Narration: “The same place. The same ballad. The same vendor’s stalls. And, us
who isn’t the same as last year’s. Let’s talk, okay..” Suiren stops walking and
says that she wants to sit. He asks if her foot hurts. Just then, the others
are gossiping if that is Suiren there, and are they still going steady. Suiren
holds Kawasumi’s hand tighter and tells him that it is alright. To her and
everyone else’ surprise, Kawasumi carries her ala princess carry. This made
Suiren blush and call out his name. Walking while carrying her, Kawasumi says
that he’ll go to a place where they can sit. He asks her if her foot is okay.
She didn’t answer and thinks that everyone is looking. She’s quite embarrassed
but she’s together with Kawasumi so she doesn’t mind it. At some other place,
Kawasumi says that they cannot see the fireworks from there. She holds his hand
and says that she always wants to ask him. “How did you spend the time when we
didn’t see each other?”
While the fireworks are lighting up the night sky, Kawasumi
says that even if saying it is quite humbling. “I’m very lonely.” Suiren looks
surprised for he would unexpectedly say it that way. As Kawasumi sits beside
her, Suiren admits that she is also very lonely and she really wants to see
him. He asks why, when obviously, she can call him then he’ll go see her.
Suiren says is that so. He says yes, anyway, it is summer vacation now. She
says, ya. He tells her, “I have no appointments. Sundays are okay. Normal times[/days]
are okay. Late nights are also okay. If you call me, I’ll quickly come.” This
made Suiren blush. Kawasumi says that in the end, it is no good if one doesn’t
say it out. Suiren agrees with him. She tells him that through
conversation..,colliding opinions, it seems as if she can overcome..[and] protect
him closely[/tightly].. Kawasumi seems to be suppressing a laugh. Thinking that
it is no good if she doesn’t do this, Suiren says that she already knows about
that and it feels very awesome. Kawasumi agrees with her. He asks her what
about the fireworks. She says that she wants to see it. He tells her that they’ll
go. She says ya..then mutters princess carry. He asks huh but she says that it
is nothing. As the fireworks continue to light up the sky, Suiren wonders, if
in short, it is like returning to square one..?
Comment: Well, I
guess the cooling off stage did help as they realize that they terribly miss
each other. And, it seems that Kawasumi is now willing to give her his time
though I’m not sure if it is only during summer break. ^^; Oh well, at least,
it is one progressive step. He is also more considerate to her like asking
about her feet if it hurts and taking the initiative to hold hand. It is also
another progress that they do not mind too much what others think since Suiren
no longer wears a mask and Kawasumi will carry her in front of the fanboys and
others. And of course, it is great that they realize the value of communication
and saying what they’re thinking/feeling rather than it is up to the other to
guess the situation. Of course, in their case, Kawasumi thought everything was
okay when actually, it wasn’t for Suiren. It isn’t quite there yet since Suiren
took back about the princess carry, but I guess, they’ll go about that slowly
and steadily. It is nice to see them being cute together again in their own
lovely-dovey way. Back to square one, maybe but who knows..in this part, are we
going to get that elusive kiss or not? =P Scans by all★wink汉化组

i love these two so much.... so cute >_<
ReplyDeleteis it just me, or did Kawasumi become matured? He grew tall too. I always thought that she was too good for him and he wasn't treating her right. I hope that these next chapters will show development of their relationship. Thanks for the summary, Kat!
ReplyDeleteYou mean how he looks? Yup, and also, Suiren. She is sometimes drawn to be a bit more mature. Hehe, a glimpse of what they would look like when they are older?
DeleteHopefully ^^
Thanks for reading ^-^
I think that too. He became matured. And Suiren too
DeleteYup.
DeleteThey become matured >.<~ I hope they will have a lip kiss in next chapter :">
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Kat-chan ^^~ Waiting for the next chap is too long for me T.T
Hopefully ^^
DeleteYou're welcome, Dương Thùy Dung ^-^

Yay!! Somehow I get the feel that they looked much more like a couple in this chapter. Kawasumi did so well, I'm so proud <3
ReplyDeleteThere wasn't a kiss but I'm very happy with this chapter. (I'm still hoping for a kiss soon though).
Thank you very much for the summary!!
Yup, Michelle ^^
DeleteYa, hopefully soon...
Thanks for reading ^-^
Thanks for the summary and I must say that this chapter made me fall inlove with this manga again LOL I could "feel" that cute and innocent touch this manga had at the beggining.
ReplyDeleteI mean, Suiren and her lovely happy dance IT'S SOOOO CUTE!!! *__* and how she finally opened about what she wants and she's acting more like herself around Kawasumi was great. Kawasumi is also trying to act more like himself with her... I finally see how they complete each other. She's delicate and he's manly :D and the mangaka shows those aspects of their personality in a very sweet way.
Thanks again n_n
Thanks for reading ^-^ Yup, that was present in this chapter.
DeleteIndeed ^^
