Here are the raws and the summary of chapter 29.
Remember to only share the link to this post on other websites and not the link to the google drive.
Also, I would just like to inform about the fact that neither English nor Japanese is my first language, so there will probably be dialogue from the manga that I've misunderstood. That is also why I write the summary as a story and not line-by-line dialogue.
Kagiura is sitting on the bus, thinking back on that day, trying to figure out what happened when a basketball junior calls out to him and asks to borrow his smartphone to watch the game, since he has a subscription.
Kagiura is thinking about how he could feel that Hirano didn't like it when he touched his lower back. But he's a little confused about when Hirano hugged him instead and said, "I'm glad/I'm relieved." Hirano is desperately trying to figure out if that means Hirano likes him or not. He's trying to reason that if he didn't like the hug, he wouldn't have said "I'm glad/I'm relieved," so that means Hirano liked the hug as well, right? A junior is watching Kagiura from the front of the bus when he gets called by a senior.
Hirano runs into Ichinose and greets him while they stand outside the dorm. Ichinose talks about how he wishes it will be sunny on the upcoming sports festival. They start walking together without saying anything, so Hirano is wondering if the mood is awkward or if he's just overthinking it, when Ichinose asks Hirano for a moment of his time.
Ichinose apologizes about the incident in the laundry room and how bad the timing was. Hirano says it's fine. He goes on to ask if Hirano and Kagiura are in that kind of relationship, which makes Hirano confused about what Ichinose means, so he goes on to explain that he meant dating. Hirano thinks back to when Kagiura said that he wasn't asking Hirano out or anything.
Hirano says that it's "still not that."
Ichinose looks a little surprised while wondering over the fact that Hirano said: still/yet, but smiles while telling Hirano that he's glad that it looks like it's going to become the case soon. They look confused at each other.
Seems like Hirano gives Ichinose some background info, and Ichinose finally realizes that Kagiura has confessed to Hirano.
Hirano is looking really flustered, and Ichinose is apologizing about making Hirano explain the whole thing, and that he's not very good at talking about that kind of thing. Hirano thinks to himself that this whole thing is so awkward.
Ichinose comments that it looks like fun, and that's the best part.
He laughs while commenting on the fact that it seems like Hirano is having more fun now than when they were roommates.
Hirano hesitates before telling Ichinose that there's something that he can't really ask anyone for advice about.
Ichinose asks what it is, and to ask away.
Hirano asks Ichinose if there has ever been someone he wanted to kiss and try various different things.
(Ichinose is so confused 😂)
The only thing in Ichinose's head is "NANI?!"
Hirano explains that he doesn't mind touching Kagiura, but that he sometimes doesn't like being touched. At least the way he was getting touched, and that it made him think that he couldn't accept everything about Kagiura, however...
Hirano thinks about how relieved he was when they got to stay as roommates, and says that he really wants to give Kagiura an answer.
Hirano starts to wonder about if he can see Kagiura as a romantic partner because he wants to give him an answer. He's thinking that there's such a big difference between them that it might be impossible. That line that Kagiura might not be able to cross and the feelings they have might not be the same. Maybe the feeling Hirano has isn't romantic feelings. Ichinose tells him that he is the kind of person who wants to kiss the person he likes. Hirano looks a little down, but says that makes sense. Ichinose smiles and says that doesn't have to be what love is all about, right?
Hirano gets flustered and says that he guesses so. Ichinose opens his umbrella and says that he's glad that these special feelings aren't one-sided.
Hirano thinks back to hugging Kagiura: "I can tell that you care about me."
Hirano agrees with Ichinose. Ichinose looks up and says the sun is out.
(Miyano in the right corner though 😂)
Kagiura tells Hirano that he looked cool while being the cheer captain.
Hirano looks tired, but says thank you to Kagiura. Kagiura comments about how it's cool in the shadow, and Hirano starts to say that Sasa(ki)... someone he knows told him about that place. Kagiura still picked up on the name Hirano was trying not to say. When Hirano won't reply, Kagiura says that it's fine, he doesn't really care. Hirano points out that it sure doesn't look like he doesn't care. Hirano asks about what's going on outside and Kagiura says he just saw Niibashi trying to tie the balls together with a string. Hirano laughs and that's clever. Hirano fanning himself while he is saying that it takes him back, since he did the same his first year.
(Where are you looking Kagi-kun? 🫣)
Kagiura asks Hirano if the uniform is the one from junior high. Hirano says that he had to borrow the uniform because the one from junior high was too small.
Kagiura asks how much Hirano has grown since entering high school, and Hirano says he grew 10 cm, but that he stopped growing now. Kagiura says he's still growing, and Hirano says that if he wants a fight, he'll fight him.
Hirano looks at Kagiura and thinks about how the sky suits him.
Kagiura asks what's up and gives back the jacket. Hirano looks around before asking Kagiura if he wants to kiss him. Kagiura looks flustered and asks if he means right here and now? Hirano won't look up while saying that he's asking a serious question.
Kagiura looks a little nervous but says that he wants to kiss him because he likes Hirano.
Hirano looks uncomfortable while saying, "I see."
Kagiura kind of interrupts Hirano to tell him that it's not the only reason that he wants to date him. That he wants to be with him more than anyone else; that is his kind of "like."
Kagiura looks quite flustered but tells Hirano he wants to have his 10 seconds while talking. Hirano says that someone might see them doing that where they're sitting. Hirano thinks about how he doesn't want another situation like with Ichinose in the laundry room.
Kagiura mumbles to himself that Hirano has become aware of him when suddenly a junior comes around the corner yelling Kagiura's name and asking what he's going to compete in. The junior calls Hirano the roommate senpai and tells Hirano his cheering was cool. The junior says that he's from the basketball team and wants them to exchange contact info. Hirano doesn't have his phone with him, and Kagiura tells the junior that Hirano is in the Disciplinary committee, which makes the junior scared that Hirano is going to confiscate his phone.
A classmate of Hirano shows up and asks if he has seen Sasaki; he can't find him, and that Sasaki's race is coming up. Hirano says that Sasaki is probably in the shadow cooling off somewhere.
Hirano tells Kagiura to give him the junior's contact info later. Kagiura is not happy but says okay. The junior says he'll send him a reminder, but Kagiura says he'll do it. The junior is adamant that Kagiura will just say he forgot to do it.
Hirano pats Kagiura's head while saying "10," walks off while saying "see you."
The junior is telling Kagiura that he has sent the reminder while Kagiura sits there speechless. When he finally gets his senses back, all he is wondering is what's going on?!
Hirano is running along while thinking about what Kagiura said about wanting to be with him and that is his kind of "like."
Hirano wonders if he feels the same way.
Just want to point out the fact that Hirano is now on his way to talk to Sasaki that just confessed to Miyano. 🩷
