Just what do I need to say to make her understand my feelings? -2 I love you too, Riri-san. -3 But yeah, after saying that, nothing changed. I need to be more specific. -4 Aoi… —155 -1 I really love you… Like, I want to screw you! -3 Do you get it? I get it! But I don’t know how I should respond! sfx- Whaaa? -4 I guess being too direct has drawbacks too. —156 -1 It’s Almost Been a Year Since We Started Going Out ###above panel I love you… Ah, she’s saying it yet again today! -2 It’s a pain, but I’m getting used to it. Me too… sfx- Uwaaaaaa -3 Riri’s noisy, as usual. Ahaha… Maybe she had some irritating argument with Aoi again. sfx- Uwaaaaaaa sfx- ThumpaThumpaThumpa -4 Do you think I’m irritating? -5 Well, uh… -6 You’re looking away, so that means… Ah, gimme a break… -7 When you’re irritating, I’ll just do this! sfx- Smack -8 Yeah, I guess words are important… I suppose I gotta get used to it. sfx- Kiss —157 -1 Just Putting it out There ###above panel I wonder if Aoi’s confession is going ok. It’ll be fine. -2 They know how each other feels. All that’s left is to confirm it in words. -3 In words… What? -4 Y’know, I want to kiss you, Reika. -5 You do realize that saying things like that won’t work, right? -7 Oh my, and we’re at school. I got carried away… —158 -1 -1 Just Putting it out There, yet Again ###above panel To tell the truth, your sleeping face is just so adorable, Yuki… that I’ve wanted to kiss it before. But I thought I would be bad to do it when you weren’t awake. -2 Since when?! Tell me that kind of thing sooner! -3 I shouldn’t have held back and just told her what I want! Eh… Um… Well… So tonight…? -4 Slam -5 Reika-sama! sfx- Glomp Hurry up and kiss and screw Yuki-sama already! -6 What’s with you?! It’s just… Aoi is… —159 -1 Don’t you think you might have been a little too direct? -2 But I thought if I didn’t, my feelings wouldn’t go through. I mean, Aoi’s dense, and kinda childish. You do have a point. -3 So if Aoi hears about you two having experience, since she looks up to you both so much… Why do you always go there? -4 It’ll be ok. See? Look behind you. -5 Grump —160 -1 To think we’d ever see Aoi-san be that openly jealous… Well, it’s a step forward. -2 So… What about us taking a step forward? Hm? -3 No… Well… that’d be ok, I guess. -3 It should be fine if we make progress little by little, hm? Nice and slow. The two of us. —161 Afterwards Since the splash page had cherry blossoms, I ended the story with them amongst cherry blossoms. And the theme was yuri. When I think of imagery for love stories between girls, it’s always cherry blossoms. When yuri love blooms under the falling cherry blossoms, it’s so cute! I drew this manga filled with the feelings of those girls. Thank you very much for reading until the end!
