This chapter is OMG~ *inhale*exhale*

The cover. So cute! Kazusa and Banri's arm as pillow for Rei. So sweet!

Narration, Rei's thoughts: "I like Banri, however he seems to like Yukari. It's like a difficult question during test which i can't solve.

Rei knocked herself on to a pole as she was deep in thoughts about Banri and Yukari while walking. They are going to bring Yukari around the area as she just moved in.

It was Yukari whom requested Rei to bring her around as there are many places she would like to visit. She is concern if Rei is too tired as she had extra curriculum activities in the morning even though it's the Summer vacation. (I'm not a fan of her innocent and concern look =P)

Rei's thoughts: "I can't tell Yukari that i like Banri and he seems to like her. I can't let such a kind and gentle girl like her worry."

Rei and Kazusa walked behind while Banri and Yukari walked in front. Banri noticed that Rei was looking at Banri and Yukari and asked if she's alright. She thanked Kazusa for coming. While Kazusa said: "For such trivial matters, anytime." Banri tookd a peeped behind at Kazusa and Rei.

Rei: "I'm alright today as it's a request from a friend, i will gambatte and enjoy." They went to a Yukata rental shop and both Rei and Yukari came out in Yukata. Banri: "Isn't it great! Going out in Summer is about going out with girls."

Banri: "Isn't this great? You look good in Japanese traditional clothes."
Rei blushed after hearing Banri's words and she thought to herself: "Baka Banri, I'm sure you didn't. One word from you and i can fly to cloud nice while an action from you can bring me down."

and they went around visiting places.

Yukari: "Seems like the three of you are always together since a long time ago."
Rei: "Yup, we are childhood friends, we are like family."
As they are strolling down the pavement, Yukari heard over heard two passer by's conversation. One of the guys asked if the black hair (referring to Yukari) girl is good? The other guy replied saying that he preferred the taller and fairer girl (referring to Rei) instead. While the friend replied saying that Rei is being guarded by two guys so it's impossible. Yukari saw both Banri and Kazusa looking gently at Rei.

Rei: "Banri is like a disobedient son? While Kazusa is someone whom i always depend on. They are like real brothers to me."
Kazusa: "You are like a disobedient young sister whom i need to take care of."
Banri: "Really?" and he placed his arms on Rei.

Rei blushed and thinks that Banri is too near her and tried to shove him away.
Banri: "Why? Isn't it the norm?" Banri asked Rei where is their next destination while Rei is trying to get away from Banri thinking that her heart is not able to handle it soon. Kazusa stepped forward and grabbed Banri's hand.

Kazusa: "Let go of her, Banri. Didn't she said it's hot and all?"
Banri: "and all.. Alright. Alright. The brother is scary when he gets angry."
Rei thinks that her heart almost stopped beating. She quickly apologizes to Banri however

he took Yukari's hand and walked off. (what is he doing?!?!) He apologizes to Yukari when he realized he was holding on to her hand. Yukari said it's alright and they exchanged gentle smile. (I think i dislike Yuakri more and more) Rei stood behind and saw everything and tears are forming.

Kazusa placed a bottle of cool drink on Rei's forehead to help Rei cool down and told her it's alright not to look at unnecessary things. Rei thinks that is impossible. Since she realized that she likes Banri, things have changed and she can't be with Banri like before.

Rei's thoughts: "Don't go away Banri. Look here. There are things i want to tell you yet i can't. What is my answer?" and she said to herself: "run."

She picked up her Yukata and ran! Yukari was shocked while Banri and Kazusa seems like they are used to it already. Banri told Yukari not to worry as Rei tends to act this way when she is stress or over whelmed.

Kazusa: "You seems to know pretty well."
Banri: "You know where she ran to yea?"

and he went off to take his bike planning to send Yukari home. As he walked away, Banri said: "You too know her pretty well right? Find her quickly and make me give up."

Yukari: "Will Rei be alright?"
Kazusa: "We know where she ran to. It's been the same all these while. There's no need to worry about her as we know her very well."
Yukari: "As a brother? You like Rei, don't you? Are you contented with just being a brother forever? I know that the three of you have a strong relationship however Rei is unaware of your feelings."
Kazuza: "What are you trying to do?"

Kazusa annoyed: "What do you know about us? Since when are you Rei's close friend? This isn't something you..." Banri stopped Kazusa, he ran in front of Yukari as if protecting her and asked: "What do you think you are saying?"
Kazusa: "I merely said what comes to my mind, unlike you." Banri stunnted by Kazusa's words. Kazusa: "If the both of you aren't coming, i'm leaving."

Banri: "I'm sorry, you were shocked, aren't you? When it comes to Rei, he..."
Yukari: "Nope, i'm was insensitive."
Banri: "He's the one being hurt."
Yukari: "Yah... one should know, usually." they looked at Kazusa's back as he walked away.
Banri: "You still like him even if it's like this?"
Yukari: "ah... no...."
Banri holding Yukari's hand: "Can you give up on Kazusa?" (what is he doing?!?!)

Yukari looking at Banri who's still holding on to her hand: " Banri ?" (omg~ i hope he's not going to confess or anything.)

Kazusa found Rei, he touches her hair and asked if she had calmed down and if she'd found the answer. Rei asked if she was exposed, her feeling? Kazusa told her nevermind about that. Rei: "Ne, Kazusa. I will be clearer and happy if i get the answer however...

... i'm afraid as well. That is why i've decided not to let Banri know of my feelings. I want to return to just being childhood friends." Rei's thought: "I know Banri will choose Yukari, I don't expect any reward if i confess. I do not want such an important place (together with Banri and Kazusa) to change neither do i want to lose it...

As you both are important to me. I want to hurt neither of you."

Kazusa grabbed her hand and said: "It's to late." Pushing her down and... (breathe everyone! *inhale*exhale*)

and Kazusa kissed Rei!

***
OMG! *inhale*exhale* What's going to happen to them? It's getting messy! Obviously Banri likes Rei but why is he holding Yukari's hand and telling her to give up on Kazusa? Is he confessing to her? I hope he's not, i hope he's only asking Yukari to give up on Kazusa as he knows Kazusa likes Rei. What about himself then? Can't he tell that Rei likes him? Isn't it obvious? And Kazusa! omg! what will happen between him and Rei? I'm sure Rei can't act normal like before with him after the kiss. Yukari... is she nice or fake nice?

Can't wait for the next chapter already. Cliffhanger ending! Argh!
