oshaberi ga hajimaru おしゃべりが始まる On Rainy Days, a Bath Wow, really? Hm? I texted you about it after dinner yesterday.
Huh? Really? I didn't see that text.
Run-chan.
Your socks.
I forgot to put on one of them! This is so embarrassing I might as well go barefoot then.
R-R-R-R-Run-chan W-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh Where are your panties? How on Earth did I not notice that! How on Earth Don't squat! You'll be exposed in front! It was because I was sleepy Is that the only reason? Don't worry! Am I the only one who does this? Everyone forgets things sometimes! Usually not their panties, though.
Tooru just now Just now You thought, "Usually not panties," right? Run-chan! Don't run- Not again You sure have it rough, Tooru.
Sorry about that, Tooru.
I'm just not a morning person I get so sleepy that I space out.
Is that the issue here? She's wearing them now.
O-Of course she is! I I was just thinking, what if Ah, oh yeah, Run.
What? Can I copy your class notes from yesterday afternoon? That's right, you left early yesterday.
Sure thing.
Here.
Thanks! You're a lifesaver.
What language is this? Oh, come on, it's Japanese! I had a fit of sleepiness during class.
So it's not just mornings then.
Is it hard to read? N-No, not at all! Thank you! If there's any part you can't read, just say so.
Here.
Thanks! Hey, Yuuko-chan.
Can you let me see that afterwards? Sure.
When you're done copying, give it to Run.
All right then.
Right then.
Hey.
Hm? Nagi, are you nearsighted? What's your acuity? These glasses are just for show.
Really? Why do you wear fake glasses? If I don't wear these I end up seeing things I don't have to see.
You mean don't tell me Oh! Just now, right behind you, Yuuko No, I'm kidding.
I told you, I'm joking.
It's too much fun to tease you.
I'm just nearsighted.
Seriously, stop it! I'm bad with scary stories! You scared me too! Nagi-chan, you're a good actor! You should join the drama club! I'm in it.
note: people who never go to club meetings I'm a phantom member, though.
Not at all! "I received two or three letters from you this summer.
If I remember rightly, it was in your second letter that you asked me to help you find a suitable post.
" I need to go to the bathroom Consider the sense of human ego and conflict that can be inferred from "Sensei"'s letter An existence who clearly portrays 1 of the flaws of a self-centered world view The "Sensei" of the following chapter The "I" of this passage Um, sensei Uhh umm Oh no! I'm too embarrassed to say I have to go to the bathroom! My my head hurts Yuuko, that's your stomach! Um, I mean, that is Sensei, excuse me! I need to use the bathroom, so can I bring Yuuko to the nurse's office, and go along the way? Very well, you may go.
Let's go, Yuuko-chan! Right.
S-Sorry about that, Run.
You saved me back there.
It's okay.
I needed to go, too.
Oh, to the bathroom, too? No, to the nurse's office.
Run! Run, what's wrong? Does it hurt anywhere? I'm not sure what's wrong, but I don't feel so great Maybe I caught something- I'm gonna be sick.
Should we go to the bathroom? But wait, uh, to the nurse's office? No, to the bathroom? To the to to to That's right! Tooru! Yuuko-chan! That's not what I Nurse's Office Run! Hey! Run! Pull yourself together! Yuuko.
Tooru! Run suddenly lost consciousness! The nurse isn't here today, either.
What do we do? Calm down! Why don't you call another teacher or something Both of you, be quiet.
There's nothing to worry about.
She was just sleep-deprived.
It's raining.
No umbrella.
Me neither.
It was sunny this morning.
But it's just showering.
If we run, we can make it.
Wait here, Tooru.
Watch me! Aoigaoka High School Aoigaoka High School I discovered recently, that I'm a rain woman.
You don't have to risk your life! Hurry up and get back here! I got all wet! Don't be so reckless.
Who's that? He's staring at us.
With Run-chan in the state she's in now Run-chan.
Let's go inside.
Sure.
Wonderful.
Thank goodness.
At this school Please turn in your overnight camp permission forms to your class monitor or Yamada.
What a pain Run-chan, if you don't dry off quickly Okay, it's done! Tooru, put this on! Trash Bag Ta-dah! Now you don't need an umbrella! At our age, isn't this a bit awkward? I mean, if we were elementary schoolers Yeah, I guess it is.
People might think we're a couple since we match.
Then, one of us should No, that's not what I meant.
What is that? Then I'll take mine off.
I'm already wet anyway.
No, I'll do it.
Let's go home.
Nagi-chan, Yuuko-chan! Don't come after us! Good grief.
I was wondering what you were doing.
Run! You're soaked! My place isn't far.
Want to dry your clothes there? Can I? Thanks! But it's still Wow Wonder if there's a rain woman on campus.
Now what do we do? It's raining harder, but if we run, it'll be fine! If we all get wet, we won't be scared! Well, if it's just to Nagi's house What a drag.
I don't want to get wet, so I'll call a taxi.
Such an un-high-schooler-like utterance! Maybe it'll stop if we wait? Doesn't look like it.
I'm telling you, I'll call a taxi- Here I go! Nagi-chan, your house is this way, right? Hey, stop! Wait, me too! I said wait up! Come on, come on! Hang on! Don't leave me behind! You'd think rainy days would make them depressed, but they're having so much fun.
Ah, to be young! K's Poems In the rain, your smile was simply so radiant, that I No matter how strong the rain nor how dark the clouds nor how sharp They could not hide your radiant sunlight.
Indeed, even if they It's coming to me! m 962 104 l 1098 104 1098 342 962 342 Kitou -sensei Hobby: Poetry It's all coming to me! Poetry Reality I'm home.
Pardon the intrusion! Go ahead, come in.
Let's hurry up and get in the bath.
Hm? Aniki's home already.
Nagi, you have an older brother? Onii-chan! I've got friends over! So don't use the bathroom, 'kay? Nagi-chan, do you call your older brother "aniki," or "onii-chan"? I call him "aniki"! Well then, only two people can enter the bath at once.
Let's split into two groups.
Ready, set, and shoot.
Well, I'll go first with Run then.
Enjoy! Why don't we get changed, then? There we go.
That's right! Come to think of it, I've never spoken with Tooru alone before! What should I do? This awkward silence is kinda Kinda Y-Yes? Want to watch something? There are plenty of DVDs.
Th-There sure are.
"Scary but True Urban Legends" "Scary but True Urban Legends," or silence.
Which do you prefer? The ultimate decision! Just leave your clothes there.
Okay! Here, right? Let's hop right in, then.
Whoa, who are you? Huh? It's me, Run.
Well yeah, I know that.
But man, just letting your bangs down sure changes how you look.
Who are you? Your reaction I have no words.
Ah, it feels so nice! Makes you feel refreshed, doesn't it? But we'd better finish up quickly.
You're right.
We've got to switch with Tooru and Yuuko-chan.
Those two are alone in my room right now.
Will they be all right? They'll be fine! They get along so well! Well Even so Oh no! Oh no! I can't keep this up! That's right! If I close my eyes, I won't be scared.
I'm the one who wants to scream.
Sorry for the wait! Go ahead and use the bath- huh? Oy, Yuuko? The bath is free.
Yuuko-chan! Yuuko-chan? Yuuko-chan! Yuuko-chan?! Yuuko-chan! Oh no, Yuuko-chan has! What the heck happened? Whew.
That was really scary.
We finally get to take a bath! Right, Tooru? Shall we get in? Say, Tooru, do you ever get scared while washing your hair, because you can't see? You see, when I was a kid, I was really bad with shampoo Shampoo's getting in my eye! What are you doing, Tooru? Where's the shower head? My eyes My eyes Yuuko! You're being too loud! Please, stop it! Gosh.
I thought my heart would stop.
My mind is going hazy.
Run.
Look at that.
I can see an oasis.
Nagi? Run? W-What happened to you two? Yuuko How was the temperature of the bath? Never mind that! More importantly, shut off the heater already.
We figured we'd dry out our clothes Delicious! Ah, I'm alive again! Gosh, don't worry us like that! They're pretty much dry.
I wonder if the rain will stop soon? Not yet, it looks like.
It sure is coming down.
Rainy days really get to your hair.
Mine sort of goes all limp.
Mine gets all spread out and won't stay down.
I guess we have different hair types.
Yuuko-chan, let me touch your hair! Sure, go ahead.
Yuuko-chan, your hair is so pretty! Hm? You don't have any split ends! Wanna play? Aw, that's not true.
Hey, isn't this outfit cute- Don't move! This is the delicate part! All right.
There we go! W-What? Don't move! I lost! You're still playing? I'm going to beat Nagi's high score.
That's quite the temperament you've got.
Yuuko, your hands are kinda pretty.
T-They aren't really How do you take care of them? I don't do anything in particular.
Well then, in that case Ba-ba-bum! It feels nice, b-but it's kinda embarrassing.
T-Tooru? Ah, wait- Don't move! Don't move! Gosh! What am I supposed to do then? I've got no plans after school.
Looks like it's still going.
Since it's raining outside, It sure is coming down.
But you know, I really like the sound of rain.
let's meet up at my place.
Really? You never were one to show your true feelings.
I sorta know what you mean.
Right? Come on, Nagi-chan, close your eyes and listen, too! But today I'm sure you'll understand.
What? No, I'll be I just want to see your smile.
You don't have to hide over there.
Here now, come a bit closer.
You're my friend, too.
From here on out, no matter how many seasons pass us by, stay close by my side forever.
I want to be with you.
I want to laugh with you.
Well, it's certainly not bad.
But it sorta sounds like something's grilling.
It's making me kind of hungry.
Run-chan.
That was me.
Again? See you.
Be careful on your way home.
Will do! Thanks for lending us umbrellas, too! See you tomorrow, then! Thanks for letting us stop by! See you! Hey, that umbrella's pretty cute! It sure is.
