Happy Valentines’ Day! And, Erika sweetly gives her
boyfriend a bag of homemade chocolates. Kyouya casually takes it and thanks
her. While Nozomi teases her, Erika reminds Kyouya to eat it for it is a taste
she can guarantee. Kyouya asks if she tasted too much and became fat again.
[<- from last chapter] She tells him no way. Then, Erika is asking Ayumi whom
she’ll give chocolates to. Ayumi says no one except from her father and younger
brothers. Erika asks how about Takeru but Ayumi is puzzled what she is bringing
that up. Nozomi asks Ayumi about his chocolates but she tells him that it isn’t
necessary for doesn’t he get a lot. While they talk about Nozomi using
chocolates as props for his popularity, Kyouya tells them that he’ll be going
to the drug store. They were surprise that he is going to buy an odor
neutralizer spray. Erika asks if he is going raise a pet. He says no. To Erika’s
irritation, Nozomi asks if Kyouya meant Erika’s smell. Erika looks delighted
when Kyouya tells them that a dog will be left at his house for around 10 days.
It belongs to his sister who is going on a trip overseas with his mother for a
week so he has to temporarily take care of it. His sister threatened to destroy
all of his favorite DVDs if he refused to take care of it. Erika starts
becoming envious of him since her father hates animals but Kyouya complains
about it since he finds it quite annoying to take care of animals. Nozomi
teases again that isn’t he used to taking care of animals, after all, he
already has Erika. At the station, Kyouya meets up with his mother and sister
who are looking for Erika. His sister gives him the bag which has the dog and other
stuff. She tells him that the dog is called, ‘Lime’ [<- Ah, that’s the
English translation from Chinese based on the Chinese scans.] Kyouya returns
home and grumbles over how heavy it is, it being noisy, why do he have to, why
not just someone better in taking care of dogs, being irresponsible to go on a
trip.. And, after zipping open the bag, Kyouya looks surprised upon seeing a cute
white dog looking at him. Later on, Erika is a bit worried about the dog rather
than Kyouya so she is going to secretly check out their situation.
