WataTen ch38

p313
>I'm gonna work hard for Yori-chan's sake!!

p314
>In order to become popular.

>I'm no good at mat exercises...
>You always get dizzy pretty quickly, Yori-chan.
>Wah! Amazing!
>!

>Hinata-chan did a backflip!
>So cool!
>Hey, show me one more time!
>Alright.

>Hup!
>Amazing!

>I'm gonna do a backflip too!
>Eh!?

p315
>The predicted future

>Kano!
>If I do one of those, I'll be swimming in popularity!
>If Yori-chan does a backflip...

>Hah!!

>She'll die!!

p316
>Light and darkness

>Y-Yori-chan, that's dangerous. You should give up.
>Don't worry. I'm not gonna do it right now. I'll be sure to practise first.

>I'll get some sneak practise in over the weekend and show it off during PE on Monday!
>Keep this a secret from everyone! It won't be as cool if they know I practised first!

>Is she gonna be okay practising...?

>I-It's no good... If I don't do something, Yori-chan will be in danger...
>I'm gonna do it!

p317
>Optimum safeness

>Hinata-chan, you got a moment?
>Kanon?

>Please!
>Teach me how to do a backflip in secret!

>I don't really get it
>but sure, why not.
>Thank you, Hinata-chan. [I assume the author/editor put "Kanon-chan" here by mistake]

>Preferably, I'd like a safe method that anyone can learn without getting hurt.
>Also I need to learn it within three days.
>That's a huge order.

p318
>Something's missing

>Kano, let's go home.
>Sorry, Yori-chan.
>I've got errands today.

>The next day.
>Kano~
>I've got errands today, too.

>...Hrm...
>What's with her having errands two days in a row?
>I mean, I'll be fine even without Kano, but...

>...
>This is boring...

p319
>Look of determination

>Kano, what have you been doing after school these past few days?
>Eh!?
>Erm...
>I-It's a secret~

>The heck? Just tell me.
>Hmm...
>Still a secret~

>...Whatever. Just don't forget about your plans with me this weekend!
>Y-Yeah...

>Yori-chan, I'll do my best!
>Eh? Sure...?

p320
>Affair

>Kano went off somewhere after school again.
>Just what is she up to...?

>It's an affair!
>!?

>Lately Hinata-chan's been saying she has something secret she's doing and won't go home with me either!
>I'm sure they're hanging out together!
>It's an affair!

>Stupid Hinata-chaaaan~...
>Uwaaah
>What's wrong with Noah-chan?
>She's been a bit emotionally unstable as of late.

p321
>Bridge

>Apparently there's been rumors of those two going to the gymnasium after school.
>The gym? What are they doing?

>I don't know, so we're gonna take a look!
>You're coming too, right, Koyori-chan!?
>Eh? Ah... sure.

>Gymnasian
>With more vigor!
>It's Kano and Hinata-chan's voices...
>L-Like this...?

>No, like this!
>!?

p322
>A deep mystery

>What are they doing!?
>It's a bridge.
>I can see that!

>Why are they forming a bridge!?
>What kind of play is this!?
>Who knows?
>...!

>But it doesn't feel like they're just playing.
>When what do you call that?

>And then like this!
>Hrm~
>Seriously, what are they doing...?

p323
>Loves gossip

>Wait, huh? Where did Koyori-chan go?
>Over there.
>Eh?

>Kano!
>What secrets have you been keeping from me!?

>Y-Yori-chan!?
>Awawa, it's a catfight!
>Look, Hana-chan! It's a catfight!

>What now!? Should I step in too!? Or should I just keep watching?
>Why are you excited about this?

p324
>Wanted to say it at least once

>You're wrong, Yori-chan.
>About what?

>It's a soap opera, Hana-chan! A soap opera!
>Shut up, Noah.
>And weren't you the one complaining about an affair or something?

>That's right! It's an affair!
>So I really should show myself and get in on this catfight!
>I'm staying out of this.

>Shall I say "you thieving cat"!?
>Stop it.

p325
>The predicted future 2

>Eh?
>Backflip practise?
>Why are you two doing that?

>Kanon asked me to.
>Erm...
>...Yori-chan said she wanted to do it, so it's practise for a practise...

>Koyori-chan the clutz wants to do a backflip?
>That's right.

>You'll die, y'know?
>Why?

p326
>That much of a clutz

>That's why I figured I should practise for the practise so Yori-chan could do it safely.
>So that's why you were practising with Hinata.
>Sorry for borrowing Hinata-chan from you.

>What's why you guys?
>I'm not that much of a clutz.
>Eh?

>Just you watch.
>I'll do that thing that Kano was practising just now.
>It's slippery, so I'll take my socks off first...
>That's dangerous. Maybe you should stop...

>Huh? It's not coming off...
Ah!?
>I told you~

p327
>Make-or-break

>Maybe if would be best to give up after all?
>I agree.

>...

>Yeah, you're right.
>I'll give up on the practise.
>Thank goodness.

>I'm the type who's really strong during the real thing!
>Just you watch!
>!?

p328
>Kanon is upset

>You can't, Yori-chan!
>!?

>Wh-Why did you just yell like that?
>It's really dangerous so you can't just do it with vigor alone!
>You'll hurt yourself if you don't practise properly!

>...

>Fine.
>Thank goodness.

p329
>So were you practising with Hinata-chan yesterday as well?
>Yeah. I still can't do it yet.

>It's really dangerous so I'd prefer it if you just gave up on the idea...
>...

>Okay. I'll give up.

>Eh? Really?
>Really!

>I mean, if I'm in danger, that means you're in danger too, right, Kano!?
>Honestly...

p330
>Besides, it's boring after school without you.

>Yori-chan...

>Let's play again tomorrow!
>Sure!

>Next time, let's play a whole bunch to make up for all the time we couldn't play together!
>Sure!
