Finally, chapter 28 of  キミのとなりで青春中。 Sorry to keep you waiting if you've been following this series.


It's April, Keita and Miu are year 3 this year and all of them are still in the same class. Gutsuchi chan is freaking out that she's an examiee this year.

Miu gets back her results from the test before the spring vacation and she gets all Es. Even though she thinks that it's bad but she soon comforts herself thinking that it's still early (that her results will improve over time). 

Miu over heard Keita's conversation with his teacher regarding his choice of university. Keita's teacher encourages him to choose a better universities like K uni or W uni as his results is much better than the acceptance score for the university of his current choice.

In class, Miu hears her classmates talking about school and she recalls the conversation Keita had with his teacher. She wonders if Keita is going to aim for those top universities which she is surely unable to get it. It worries her that she will be in a different university as Keita. She wants to discuss with Gutsuchi chan however, she needs to rush for Bio lessons. (Miu isn't taking Bio lessons was they have different majors in Yr 3)

Miu is taking Geography instead and she is feeling lonely as the only student from her class isn't someone she is close to. Then, a guy enters the classroom...

and he sits beside her! Miu freaked out a little as she thinks that he looks kind of scary.  Miu rushes back to her classroom once the lesson ended however someone called out to her.

It's the guy who sat beside Miu! Apparently Miu left her notebook behind, he returns it to her and introduces himself as Serizawa Kouki, a transfer student from class 7. Miu thinks that he isn't as scary as he seems to be.

During lunch, Miu's classmates are talking about cramp school again. Miu asks Keita if he's planning on going to any cramp school. Keita reply saying that he has no plans as he will end up sleeping during cramp school and he rather look up more assessment books. Miu says that she shouldn't attend cramp school as well then. Keita asks her why is it so. 

Keita says that it's her own problem and it has nothing to do with him. She should make decisions based on her own intentions. Miu runs away hearing that from Keita. Keita looks troubled. 

Miu running away and thinks that what Keita told her was right and she is in no position to rebut and that is why she chooses to run away. She squats down on the rooftop, crying and she heard someone asking her what happened. It's Serizawa. 

He asks Miu to tell him her troubles so that she can feel better and he can make a new friend. On the other hand, Keita is staring at a slip of paper which says: Choice of University. He hasn't made any choices and he's feeling troubled over it.

Miu is telling Serizawa her troubles and what Keita told her. Serizawa thinks that Keita is mean to say those words to her when she's feeling vex and worried. Miu says that Keita is her childhood friend (she did not tell him that Keita is her boyfriend. She thinks that it's embarrassing) and what he said was true too.

Miu thinks that she feeling better and relief after talking to Serizawa. She thanks him and Serizawa seems to look a little affected seeing Miu's smile. Miu let Serizawa have her lunchbox instead as she has lost her appetite after crying and he's having bread for lunch. Serizawa asks if it's Miu's mother who made her lunchbox and Miu tells him that she made it herself. She bid him goodbye and left the rooftop.

Serizawa looks at the lunchbox and wonders if there is still a girl who makes her own lunchbox now. Back in the classroom, Keita came to Miu's class to go home together. 

 He apologized for those harsh words he said during lunch. Miu wants to know which university is Keita aiming for however, she is still unable to bring herself to ask. Serizawa saw Miu and Keita when they are on their way home. He seems a little affected to see Miu with a guy.

The girl beside him calls Keita's name and he asks if she knows Keita. She tells him that Keita is the most popular guy in school and he's going out with his childhood friend who is is a dull looking girl. She says that she in unable to understand why.

Serikawa says he dislike such refreshing feel. (he's referring to Miu i suppose.)

***
Finally, the beginning of a seemingly longer arc? However, we know that this new guy, Serikawa is going to stir up some troubles between Keita and Miu.
