Sign: Infirmary
Aoi: It's the first time I see it, this one.
Aoi: Bread with Red Beans paste and chestnut cream fillings, Poyo.
Maho: You like it?
Aoi: Just its name attracts me.

Page 145
Satsuki: Hello!
Maho: Oh, Satsuki-sensei. Hello!
Aoi: Hello Poyo.
Satsuki: Can I have lunch with you?
Maho: Of course! You don't mind, Aoi?
Aoi: Poyo.
Satsuki: Phew!
Satsuki: It's so sad to eat my lunch alone.

Page 146
Satsuki: Sorry for the lack of room.
Satsuki: I have a big butt!
Maho: Ha Ha! Oh no, you're quite slim.
Satsuki: I hope you'll accept to be my friend too, Aoi.
Maho: When you get her to talk, Aoi is a really funny girl.
Aoi: Nonsense, poyo.
Satsuki: I also notice that you only eat stuffed breads.
Aoi: I decided to eat every bread from the konbini in order, Poyo.
Satsuki: Is that so!
Satsuki: Which ones are your favorites?

Page 147
Aoi: From the brand Katou, my recommendation is the "Sweet potato Danish Bread", The "Cheese & Taco flavored Danish Bread" and the "Cream and Sticky Rice Bread".
Aoi: From Daini Pan, I really enjoyed the "Thick Red Beans paste bread", the "Kobe Red Beans Paste Bread" and the "Peach Jam Bread."
Aoi: From Fujiyama Bread, I recommend the "Muscovado Sugar Bun", the "Caramel Soft Bread" and the "Strawberry Cream Daifuku."
Aoi: From Zakiyama Bread, I liked the "Red Beans paste filled White Bread", the "Three Colors Bread"...
Satsuki: O...ok, thanks!
Satsuki: I'm going to start with these ones!
Maho: If you didn't stop her, she could have gone on for at least 30 minutes!
Aoi: Poyo.
Satsuki: You're a really fascinating girl.

Page 148
Satsuki: Say, Aoi...
Satsuki: Don't force yourself to answer, but...
Satsuki: What is the real reason you don't attend class with your fellow students?
Satsuki: I'm not blaming you, I just really want to know.
Aoi: Because I hear everyone's voices, poyo.
Satsuki: Voices?
Aoi: I don't know how to describe it, poyo.
Aoi: But these really are voices, poyo.
Aoi: Anyway, the content of the classes is much too basic.
Aoi: Moreover, I can't help it but point...
Aoi: All the mistakes the teachers make, and they all hate me for it, poyo.

Page 149
Aoi: Finally, it's tiring to see how stupid my classmates are.
Aoi: Poyo.
Satsuki: Is that so...
Satsuki: You're a very intelligent and sensitive person.
Aoi: No, it's just that the others are rubbish.
Aoi: Except Maho, of course....
Aoi: Because Maho is an angel, poyo.
Maho: An angel?! Ha ha, thanks!
Maho: It's really rare Aoi badmouths people that way.
Maho: I can tell you're a psychologist, Sensei!
Satsuki: Wouldn't it be because I can't stop badmouthing people myself?
Satsuki: Heh, heh!

Page 150
Satsuki: Tell me, Aoi...
Satsuki: Were you ever afraid of something in your life?
Aoi: Several times...
Aoi: But right now, I'm scared of Higashiyama-sensei...
Aoi: Poyo.
Maho: But why are you saying this, Aoi?
Maho: You said the same thing the first time you met him.
Maho: Even though he's so nice...
Aoi: Poyoyo!

Page 151
Satsuki: ...
Sign: Infirmary
Maho: Then, until next time, sensei.
Maho: And see you later, Aoi.

Page 152
Yukio: Yo!
Yukio: Miss Poyo!
Aoi: Poyo.
Yukio: Is the psychologist in?
Aoi: Poyo.
Satsuki: Come in.

Page 153
Satsuki: Uh?
Satsuki: I was told Satou is absent, so today's appointment is cancelled.
Yukio: Because I'm not Satou, but Kawahara.
Yukio: Yukio Kawahara, from Year 2 class 3.
Yukio: Is it possible to come in without appointment?
Satsuki: it's all right, but just don't tell the others, ok?
Satsuki: Just fill in this form.
Yukio: Thanks!

Page 154
Satsuki: So, Yukio it is.
Satsuki: Such a nice name!
Yukio: You think?
Yukio: I'm rather disgusted by how simple-minded my parents are.
T/N: Yukio actually means "snow boy"
Satsuki: I see, you're born on a snow day, so your parents named you like this.
Satsuki: If it's being simple-minded, what about my parents?
Yukio: Satsuki...
Yukio: Ah! You're born in May?!
Satsuki: Yep, Ha ha!
T/N: Satsuki can also be read as gogatsu, the "month of May."
Yukio: I want to go straight to the point, Sensei.
Satsuki: By all means.
Yukio: There's a girl I like...
Yukio: But she's sticking so close to one of her female friend, that I came to suspect she's a lesbian.
Yukio: They are even often holding hands!
Yukio: In your opinion, would it be better if I give up?

Page 155
Satsuki: Above all, ask this question to yourself.
Satsuki: Do you feel like you can give up?
Yukio: Hmm...
Yukio: I surely could if I couldn't see her anymore overnight...
Yukio: But I see her every day...
Satsuki: Wouldn't it be...
Satsuki: Maho?
Yukio: Hu?!
Yukio: How did you guess?!
Satsuki: Well, you see her every day, which means you are in the same class.
Satsuki: And a girl in Year 2, Class 3 who holds the hand of another girl, I can only think of Maho.
Yukio: Wow! Goodness, you're more a detective than a psychologist!
Satsuki: Oh no, anyone would come to this conclusion.

Page 156
Yukio: To give you a picture, I succeeded to force myself to work like a madman for several years, just to enter the same high school than Maho, even though I'm, at the root, a total moron!
Yukio: I really need to know how to react if I learn one day she's actually a lesbian!
Satsuki: If you really love her, you must be able to love her as she is...
Satsuki: Which means being able to accept her homosexuality.
Satsuki: In any case, you must absolutely not try to make her your girlfriend forcefully.
Satsuki: Just try to be a presence, always at her side.
Satsuki: Then, someday, little by little, maybe she will open up to you.
Satsuki: First, be around her, just naturally.
Satsuki: Ok?

Page 157
Yukio: Well, I don't understand everything, but it will do!
Yukio: So, I should just be around, just like before!
Yukio: Thank you very much, Sensei!
Yukio: By the way, Miss Poyo...
Yukio: Still washing your hands?
Aoi: Poyo.
Satsuki: See you next time!
November 1st, 2013
Girl: Uh? Where the heck is the red paint?
Boy: Second year class 2 took it away.
Girl: Can someone help me to stick this poster up?
Boy: I need someone from the Basket Club!

Page 158
Yukio: Shit, I messed up.
Yukio: Gimme the white-out, Miss Poyo.
Aoi: Poyo.
Maho: Again?
Higashi: So?
Higashi: How is it going?
Yukio: We really lack manpower.
Yukio: And to top it all, they say my writing is unreadable!
Aoi: Yes, you're messy, poyo.
Maho: And you don't even write straight.

Page 159
Higashi: I got us permission to stay here until 8pm, but still, don't forget to notify your parents.
Higashi: Ah, and here are some snacks.
Higashi: Some good old Taiyaki!
Yukio: Yay!
T/N: Japanese cake made of Red beans paste, in the shape of a fish.
Yukio: What? no, I'm not messing around!
Yukio: I remind you I'm in the Ruins Research Club!
Yukio: Not fins, ruins, with a "R"!
Maho: Sensei...
Maho: Is putting the timeline here okay with you?
Higashi: No... It's better to put it on top, so people can read the dates and look at the map at the same time.
Maho: Ah yes...
Maho: Ah.

Page 160
Maho: Your tie is crooked, sensei.
Maho: You want me to set it right?
Higashi: Shoot...
Higashi: Yes, please.

November 12th, 2013
Sign: Infirmary, Consultation room.
Satsuki: Did you have fun at the cultural festival?
Maho: Yes, a lot!
Maho: It was really exciting to create the panels, all together.
Maho: And it was a chance to get acquainted with students from other classes.
Maho: Unfortunately for Aoi...
Maho: She couldn't attend because there were too much people.
Satsuki: Too bad.
Satsuki: With how cheerful you are, you must have a lot of friends.
Satsuki: So, it's surprising that Aoi is your best friend...
Maho: Erm...

Page 162
Maho: Because Aoi is the only one to accept me as I am...
Maho: Without being afraid of me.
Satsuki: Afraid of you?
Satsuki: What do you mean?
Maho: ...
Maho: It's something I never told anyone...
Satsuki: What would that be?
Maho: This here...

Page 163
Maho: One day, when I was in 6th grade, in middle school...
Maho: As Aoi and I were walking back from school on our usual path...
Maho: I suddenly got attacked by a huge dog.
Maho: I still remember the moment it strongly bit my right ankle.

Page 164
Maho: But all the memories of what happened afterward just vanished...
Maho: When I came back to my senses...
Maho: The huge dog was lying next to us, dead.
Maho: I killed it, even though it was bigger than me...

Page 165
Maho: Even the adults who came to our rescue were amazed...
Satsuki: So, for a moment, you stopped being yourself...
Maho: That's it...
Maho: I...
Maho: I'm afraid of myself...
Satsuki: You were attacked and felt a strong panic...
Satsuki: To protect yourself from this shock, your mind wiped out the memories of what happened.
Satsuki: It's a self protection mechanism of the brain, completely normal and well known, you see.
Maho: Really?
Maho: I didn't know.

Page 166
Maho: Aoi...
Maho: What's wrong?!

Page 167
Satsuki: What's the matter?
Maho: It looks like Aoi is in pain!
Maho: But wait...
Maho: isn't it pains to the ears?
Aoi: It's coming...
Aoi: Poyo.

Page 168
Satsuki: An earthquake!
Maho: Kyaaa!

Page 169
Satsuki: It was a rather strong one...
Satsuki: Are you all right, Maho!?
Satsuki: No injury?!
Maho: Haa Haa Haa

Page 170
Maho: Haa Haa Haa

Page 171
Satsuki: What's happening to you, Maho?
Maho: Haa Haa
Satsuki: Maho?
Aoi: It's not...
Aoi: Maho anymore...
Aoi: Poyo.

Page 172
Aoi: But Kaori, Poyo...
Satsuki: Kaori?
