The One-sided Love Diary of the Misplaced Stars – Chapter 14


Page1
--------------
Chihiro: To tell you the truth

She looks like she was crying then.

But I pretended not to notice.

Page2
---------------
Chihiro: Even if you were to come in touch with other people’s pain

Nobody can do anything to save them from it.

No one.

No one.

Hello.

Page3
---------------
Chihiro: I’m really sorry about what happened last time.

I heard from Shiina that you were really upset about it…

Kanade: Come.

Chihiro: Eh? Wait…I have to take off my shoes…

Kanade: Be quiet.

Saku is still sleeping.

Just hurry up and come.

Page4
---------------
Kanade: Get in there!

Chihiro: The bathroom?

? ? ?

Do you plan to beat me to a pulp here…

Page5
---------------
Kanade: Clean it.

Chihiro: Ha?

Kanade: I’m telling you to clean the bathroom.

Don’t make me say it again.

Because of the rainy season, no matter how many times I’ve cleaned it, the mold just keep growing back.

I’m so sick of it already.

So you actually came at a pretty good time. You can make it all clean and sparkly for me.

If you dare to slack off, I will shave off one of your eye-brows.

Chihiro: What…is this?

Kanade: Vinegar. It’s vinegar spray.

Saku made it yesterday.

Page6
-------------------
Kanade: She said it is really effective and that it is environment friendly.

Chihiro: Does it really work?

Ouch.

Kanade: Shut up, idiot.

If Saku says that it works, then it works.

Just zip your mouth and do it,

And your bangs are really irritating.

You should cut it so above the eye-brows.

Chihiro: Look who’s talking…

Kanade: What!?

Chihiro: I’ll tie it up. I’ll tie it up.

Kanade: Do it quickly.

If I catch you slacking off, I’ll drag you around the house.

Page7
----------------
Chihiro: What is with this development…

I shouldn’t have been so naïve and come obediently…

Somehow, I feel like I am getting more and more naïve

Ever since that time

It’s hopeless

Kanade: Hey

Chihiro: I’m not slacking off.

Kanade: Of course you aren’t. You idiot.

Back to what I was trying to say

Page8
----------------
Kanade: Just what are you…really?

Are you from this area?

Chihiro: No.

I came here from Tokyo this spring.

Kanade: Tokyo?

Which part of Tokyo?

Chihiro: XX in Kuroda ward…

Kanade: That’s near my old high school.

Chihiro: Kanada-san, you’re from Tokyo?

Kanade: Kind of. Up until university that is.

Well not that it matters or anything.

Anyway, so you are a stranger after all.

Why did you answer “Yes” to my question last time?

Page9
----------------
Kanade: Are you Sakuya’s boyfriend?

Chihiro: That was…

How do you say it…

My feelings…

were dead so…

Kanade: Dead?

Chihiro: Well…no.

I was just absent-minded then I guess.

Page10
-----------------
Kanade: It’s not like

I was angry at you or anything.

I admit I was a bit pissed off

But after all, I was the one who invited you in?

And I was the one who blabbered about Saku’s family background to you?

So how do you say it?

Page11
------------------
Kanade: “I should go and die”?

Chihiro: Eh?

Well, you don’t have to go that far.

Kanade: Still

I don’t get it. Why did Saku back you up?

Why didn’t she tell me anything

Why does it seem like I am the bad one

If for whatever reason, things turn out for the worst, and the two of you got married,

I don’t need a daughter like her.

(I know this sounds weird but this is what I get from the original Japanese dialogue >_>)

So in the end, I am only number two. I don’t like it.

It’s not amusing at all.

How stupid.

This is so stupid.

Chihiro: So in other words…

Page12
------------------
Chihiro: You are only sulking?

Kanade: Don’t think you can slack off by spouting such nonsense!

Do you want me to drag you so badly!! HUH!?

Chihiro: And then he hides his embarrassment through physical attacks…

He’s so hard to understand...

Kanade: You’re so useless!

Go clean the tableware over there.

Chihiro: Eh…

Kanade: Don’t “Eh” me!

I won’t pry into your personal affairs anymore more than this.

I hate people who pry into other people’s affairs.

Page13
------------------

Kanade: Moreover

She seems to be really enjoying herself now.

If that’s the case, then it’s fine.

That’s all that matters.

 

Page14
------------------
Chihiro: If I were to tell him that I left her to cry

He would really beat me up for sure.

I…

I have nothing to do with her being all happy now.

Kanade: Ha?

You…are really dense huh?

Chihiro: I wonder about that.

Kanade: Like I care.

You’re gonna have to think about it yourself.

I am not that nice of a person.

I’m…

Page15
------------------

Sakuya: Morning Kana-chan.

I’m sorry I slept...in...

Kanade: Yeah.

Chihiro: Morning...

This is spicy.

The insides of my ears are stinging right now…

Page16
------------------
Kanade: You call this spicy? What are you? Idiot?

If you don’t like it, then add some sugar to it.

Chihiro: But if I were to add sugar now, it’d get all crunchy.

Sakuya: Um…

While I was sleeping, did you guys become buddies?

Both: No we didn’t.

Kanade: You sure slept a lot.

Sakuya: Eh? Well that’s because…

Kanade: You were studying until late at night, right?

I could hear you chanting late into the night; it kinda freaks me out actually.

Chihiro: Eh?

Page17
------------------
Chihiro: Don’t tell me you really did what I told you to do?

Uwa…

Sakura: What do you mean “Uwa”!?

Chihiro: No…it’s just that I didn’t expect you to really do it…

Kanade-san, why don’t you teach her?

Kanade: I don’t know the subjects that are not related to the entrance examinations.

You are from the Science division, aren’t you?

You have the eyes of those science geeks who look down on the people from the Arts division.

Chihiro: That’s discrimination.

It’s not fair.

But I am from the Science division indeed.

Kanade: Why do you guys always think so highly of yourselves?

Chihiro: They say it’s because of the difference in skills.

Sakuya: Somehow…

Page18
------------------
Sakuya: It feels like my birthday all over again.

Kanade: Back to the topic…

We’ve talked for quite a bit.

So you don’t have to worry about anything anymore.

It’d only be a waste of time if you were to do so.

Do you get it?

Sakuya: Yes.

Thank god.

Thank god…

Page19
------------------
Sakuya: I’m really sorry

about today.

For making you do all those chores.

If only I hadn’t overslept…

Ah, despite what he says, Kana-chan is…

Chihiro: I know.

I know he is trying to be as considerate as he can.

Page20
------------------
Chihiro: He is doing his best to protect you.

But he’s just really awkward in doing so.

Sakuya: Amazing…

Chihiro-kun, you’re a master!

You’ve mastered how to deal with Kana-chan!

After all, you can act normally with him.

It’s amazing! And within such a short time too.

Chihiro: No…that doesn’t really make me happy…

Sakuya: Thank you.

Page21
------------------
Chihiro: Hey

This is gonna sound really weird…

Sakuya: What is it?

Chihiro: If something were to happen, why don’t you talk about it with Kanade-san?

Sakuya: Eh?

Chihiro: Even if it’s not anything important, it’s ok.

When you are going through a tough time, be sure to give off the signals?

Page22
------------------
Chihiro: It doesn’t have to be with Kanade-san only.

Shiina, you have others like Honjo and Murakami around you.

I’m sorry,

I really said some weird things.

Sakuya: What about you, Chihiro-kun?

Page23
--------------------
Sakuya: Who do you talk to, Chihiro-kun?

Do you give off a signal when you are going through a hard time?

Are you sure you are not holding them all in?

Page24
--------------------
Sakuya: Chihiro-kun, for some reasons…

You seem to hold all your hardships and sadness inside your stomach all by yourself…

Page25
--------------------
Chihiro: There you go again…

Saying such unnecessary things…

That’s why…

“I hate you”

I hate this.

It’s scary.

It’s sliding…foolishly…defenselessly…without any signs of pretense.

It’s going to touch me.

“Who do you talk to, Chihiro-kun?”

“Are you sad?”

“I’ll…”

Page26
--------------------
Chihiro: “pull you”

It’s descending into the place where no one was able to reach.

Shaking me awake.

Drawing ripples around me.

We’re

not talking about myself now.

Sakuya: I’m sorr…

Page27
--------------------
Chihiro: This is no good.

I’m getting more and more naive.

I’m beginning to find it hard to push her away.

Page28
-------------------
Sakuya: I’ll see you tomorrow…

at school!

Page29
-------------------
Chihiro: I’m even regretting it now.

Why did I pretend not to notice anything then.

He has been rejecting others as well as the reality, But Sakuya’s eyes and words has caused Chihiro’s sunken heart to change…
