So much love for this chapter! A lot of Horikashi and a dash of Nozachiyo <3
(Pg. 6)
Kashima: I got the definition, but I still don’t really understand one-sided love. (So sad…)
Nozaki: Why don’t you imagine it as someone you know in real life?
For example…
Nozaki: Who makes you get all fired up as a romance partner
and so on…
Kashima: Hmmm—
Probably Hori-senpai
SFX: doki
Sakura: !!?
So Kashima-kun, about Hori-senpai…!!!
Nozaki: And stuff like who gets you fired up as a rival
Kashima: It’s Hori-senpai
Sakura: Eh…!?

Nozaki: Mother
Kashima: Hori-senpai
Nozaki: your pet
Kashima: Hori-senpai
Sakura: Ehhhhhhh!!?

(Pg. 7)
Nozaki: Ok, then let’s imagine it with Hori-senpai
One day, senpai got a girlfriend
Kashima: Girlfriend!?
Nozaki: Yeah, what will you do?
Kashima: I’ll join them
and the 3 of us will play together!!
Nozaki: No…wrong, wrong…
Yeah! Let’s say he got a fiancee whom he promised his future with
She loves senpai, what will you do?
Kashima: the 3 of us will play!!
Nozaki: Kuh….!!!
Sakura: She was taken!!!? (as in Hori’s ‘fiancee was taken by Kashima)
We can’t do anything about her!!!
(Pg. 8)
Nozaki: If I meet senpai
I feel like I’m going to have a heartbroken expression…(I feel sorry for him…)
Sakura: Why would Nozaki-kun do that
Kashima: Eh—
Lucky, Nozaki—(I want to be able to create a heartbroken expression too—)
Nozaki: Kuh…Isn’t there someone…Someone who won’t be swayed by Kashima…
……..Hm?
Swayed…?
I see!!!
Nozaki: Okay Kashima!!! Imagine this!!!
Hori-senpai and I dating!!!
Ufufufufu <333
Ahahahahha <333
Kashima: Chiyo-chan is becoming sad…!!!
Nozaki: Why Sakura!!! (It shouldn’t be you!!!)
(Pg. 9)
Nozaki: I got it. Don’t go near Hori-senpai for a while
Kashima: Ehhhhhh (WHY!!?)
Nozaki: In your situation, it’s faster for you to get pained by not talking to him for a period of time
Kashima: Ehhhhhhh—
Hori: Yo, Kashima
SFX: hide
Hori: Oy, Kashima
SFX: hide
Person 1: …hey, what happened to Hori-chan? (he hasn’t moved at all for a while now)
Person 2: It looks like he’s silently receiving damage (someone talk to him)
Nozaki: How is it Kashima, is it painful?
Kashima: It’s painful…!!!
I want to play with senpai!!!
I want to tag with senpai!!!
Nozaki: go help your club
Kashima: ughghhghgh…
I want to speak to him even if it’s one sentence—…
Nozaki: Oh
I feel like this is pretty close to the pain of not being able to meet someone
…which means (what’s necessary now is…)
Nozaki: Jealousy!!!
Kashima
To tell the truth, I’m going to have lunch with Hori-senpai today
SFX: lifts
Kahsima: Chiyo-chan looks really jealous!!!
Nozaki: WHY SAKURA AGAIN!!!
(Pg. 11)
Nozaki: At least endure it for 3 more days
Kashima: 3 more days, huh— (so long—)
Person: Kashima-k—un
Person: The princess for today’s practice isn’t here, so you’re the substitute
Kashima: Eh? Really?
SFX: grabs
Hori: Yeah
….so
Hori: Don’t run away, Kashima
SFX: pulls
Kashima: Eh, (senpai!!?)
Hori: If there’s something you want to say, I’ll listen to it (running away for that long)
Kashima: Eh, ah, (um)
Kashima: 3 more days…!!!
Please wait for 3 more days
(Pg. 12)
Kashima: Uwaaaa—
What should I do—!!!
Hori: Sorry (stage dialogue)
I have to go now
Kashima: Chiyo-chan and Nozkai is going to be mad at me—!!!
Kashima: Ahhhhh, but it’s makes me happy to be on the same stage as senpai—!!!
Kashima: No…Please don’t say that kind of cold words (dialogue)
I have waited long enough to drive me crazy just to be able to meet you
Kashima: But they’re definitely going to get mad at me later—!!!
(senpai is going to be mad too——!!!)
Kashima: Aah…I’ll just
Kashima: Like this…
If time could just stop forever…
