I"s Manga Translations- Volume 4 Chapter 28: The Balance Is Disrupted Translated by Henry Fong Put together by Jim Zubkavich and the Masakazu Katsura Shrine Page 47 Ichitaka (The kiss didn't even touch my lips, or even my cheek...) Ichitaka (But somehow I knew this was serious, and...) Itsuki You're dumb... Page 48 Itsuki And yet... I'm an even bigger dummy. Ichitaka (It was definitely a change from her usual jokes...) Page 50 Itsuki It's a little bit... awkward... Ichitaka Ye... yeah. (I never imagined endeing up this way with Itsuki...) Page 51 Itsuki Don't stare at me like that. Ichitaka Sorry. Itsuki How long are you gonna stand there? Ichitaka uh Page 52 Itsuki Come on... over here. Ichitaka (My heart feels like it's gonna explode) okay Ichitaka (In a few seconds, it will all become clear to me.) Page 53 Ichitaka (Everytime I think I'm in love with someone, I end up back with Itsuki!) Itsuki Now, give me a real kiss this time. Ichitaka (maybe...) Ichitaka (She's the girl I'll marry in the end.) Ichitaka huh? Page 54 Ichitaka (NOOOOO!! What the hell kinda dream was that?! How could I do that with Itsuki?!) Ichitaka (Is that what I really want?! My desire?! For real?!) Ichitaka (It's all because of that strange kiss last night!) Itsuki BOO! Ichitaka AH! Itsuki I scared you! Ichitaka Tha... that... girl!! Page 55 Ichitaka You're always creeping up out of nowhere! I was just about to go shopping! Itsuki Cool! Let's go! Let's go shopping! Ichitaka (What's with her? How can she just laugh?!) Ichitaka (What was that all about?!) Ichitaka (After that, she left without saying a thing. Because of that, I had a weird feeling) Ichitaka (Then, I had that crazy dream...) Ichitaka I admire you! Nothing seems to affect you! Page 56 Itsuki What the hell's that supposed to mean?! Ichitaka Oh! Ichitaka Well... Ichitaka You know... you're doing quite well for somebody who hasn't had a job in so long. Ichitaka What? Itsuki Is that all? Ichitaka (Don't get so close to me!!) Page 57 Itsuki Next month... I start my new part time job... at a professional craftman's place. Ichitaka For real? You're gonna be his student? Is that okay? Itsuki Not just a student, I'm gonna help get his work done. And get paid too. Ichitaka What? Can you do that? Itsuki So... You think I'm useless, don't you It-chan? Well, I brought something to show you otherwise. Page 58 Itsuki In this movie, there's a shot of something I made! There's time to watch this and shop after, right? Ichitaka When you say "movie", you mean "home movie", right? Itsuki Watch and learn, pal. Itsuki By the way, what are you shopping for? Ichitaka Huh? O-oh. In two days, is the class trip, so... I want... to get... a new bag. Itsuki Really?! That sounds fun, I wish I could go, too... Page 59 Ichitaka (Last night... in the dream....) Ichitaka (Itsuki and I... were on this bed.) Ichitaka (Just like now... if I think about it.) Ichitaka It... Itsuki... Page 60 Itsuki Don't worry so much... Ichitaka huh? Ichitaka (My god... What was I thinking?) Worry? About what? Itsuki About last night. Page 61 Ichitaka you mean... It was all just a joke? Itsuki No. Itsuki But I don't want you to worry about it because I know you like Iori-chan. I don't want anything from you. Ichitaka Why did you say that? Itsuki Because you're acting all weird! I want you to be yourself! Itsuki Huh? There's no picture! Ichitaka That's 'cause the TV's not turned on! Itsuki oh, right! Page 62 Ichitaka (It kinda hurts a bit... Itsuki touched me and...) Ichitaka (She wants me to be myself, but I can't.) Ichitaka (Maybe it would be better to love Itsuki with all my heart. Instead of trying to get something out of my reach.) Page 63 Ichitaka (I'd better deicde soon... I've gotta give up on Iori-chan...) Ichitaka (She's probably mad after I pushed so hard about my birthday...) Iori I'm so sorry. Ichitaka (Iori-chan!!) Ichitaka Crap! Can't let her see me! Drama Leader I was shocked! You kind of left in a hurry... Page 64 Drama Leader You kept looking at your watch while you were there... was there something else you had to do? Ichitaka (What?) Iori W- Well... Ichitaka (She?) Drama Leader Just don't let it happen again, okay? Iori I'm really very sorry. Iori Oh! You're here! Ichitaka H- Hi... Page 65 Ichitaka Did you actually show up yesterday? Iori ah? Iori Ye- yeah... I did. Ichitaka (I- I don't believe it!) Iori But, I was kind of late, by about two hours. Ichitaka (I'm so excited) Ichitaka (sigh... What am I gonna do now?) -end of Chapter 28-
