Yukari Don't say that!! 5 Sora But we can never eat that the two of us... Yukari Yes, now that you mention it... Maybe I prepared a little too much... 6 Yukari But I won't return home until we have finished everything! Sora Then I'll have to take my time to eat!

Bon appetit!! 3 Masahiko Hey, the alcohol!!! Shion Give it to me, Masahic...hiko!! 4 Masahiko No way, you drank enough!! Shion Please, just a drop!! 5 Shion Then I'll serve myself!!

Then why do you only drink without saying anything while I'm here!?... 5 Masahiko You don't stop drinking!! Christmas is a reason for you to drink, not? It's not true that you hate Christmas, is it!? 7 Shion Aah, you really believed me!? Page 118 1 Masahiko Shion... Shion Can you believe what situation I was in; no parents at home and normally you wouldn't have returned yet!! I intended to drink all night with the assistants. 2 Shion But you had to return!? The village idiot!! 3 Masahiko Gh... Shion Ah ah ah ah ah 4 Masahiko You really like making fun of me!!! 5 Shion Aaah How could you believe that I could tell my misery to an pervert...! 7 Masahiko And then to think I came back because I worried about her..! Otherwise at this moment, Yoko and I would be alone and .... Page 119 1 Masahiko Speaking of being alone... At the moment, Shion and I are home alone.. 3 Masahiko Hey, those are not clothes to sleep in Page 120 1 Masahiko Fool!! What are you thinking about!? Besides, Shion is maybe a boy!!! 2 Masahiko Hey, you'll catch a cold, go and sleep in your room!! I must have drunk too much too... 3 Shion Masahikoooo, take me with you!! 6 Shion Your heart beats quickly!! 9 Shion Why does your heart beat so quickly when you're close to someone you believe to be a boy!? Masahiko I thought you were asleep...!? Page 121 1 Masahiko It is because I drank too much... Shion Teehee 2 Shion Let's go for a walk! 6 Yoko Home again... 7 Yoko sigh 8 Yoko ....... Page 122 2 Yoko ....... 4 Shion Wow!! It's beautiful!!! 5 Shion It is so beautiful at this hour, there are so many stars!! Masahiko ..... 6 Masahiko What is she saying? It is freezing. Must be the alcohol that keeps her warm! 7 Masahiko Here Shion Thanks, it is not a White Christmas and with this beautiful weather, you could easily believe it wasn't Christmas at all... Page 123 1 Masahiko You're joking or what? With a temperature as cold as this, the snow would turn us into icicles. So nice and hot Shion Aah, no romance at all!! 2 Masahiko My coffee is the only thing that can warm me 4 Shion I know a more romantic way to warm me...! 5 Masahiko Uh... Hah... Page 124 1 Shion It was in the first year at high school that I fell in love for the first time... 2 Masahiko .....? 3 Shion That was late, wasn't it?... Masahiko Uh yes.... but it was a boy at least...? Shion Of course!! 4 Masahiko ...Is that really obvious...? 5 Shion That boy was a new assistant of papa... Masahiko Aaah... 6 Masahiko Why does she tell me this...!? She must really be drunk...! 7 Shion I still remember today, the first day I met him at home... 9 Shion Yeah!! Page 125 1 Shion Who is it? 2 Mitsuhiro Is this the residence of Sora Harukaze? 4 Shion The moment I saw him, my heart started to beat really fast.. I never had felt anything like it... 5 Sora I'm Sora Harukaze... My really name is Wakanae. Please to meet you! Mitsuhiro Hello, I am Mitsuhiro Nakamura, thank you for seeing me!! 7 Shion I thought it was lightning...!! Page 126 1 Shion From that day, I used whatever pretext to go to the office... 2 Mitsuhiro Thank you Shion 4 Mitsuhiro I have something stuck on my nose? 5 Shion No, nothing! Mitsuhiro ? 6 Shion during his time off, Mitsuhiro helped me with my homework... He was part of a band and knew how to play the guitar... 7 Shion Everyday, my feelings for him grew stronger... Page 127 1 Masahiko ...... 2 Shion In his eyes I was only a kid but ... I was looking for a way to show my feelings... 3 Shion I decided therefore to offer him a Christmas present 4 Shion And to tell him about my feelings when we were alone... Masahiko ...... 5 Masahiko It was under that tree... 6 Shion Yes, it was under that tree that I waited for him to come to the party that we gave... 7 Shion I knew that he passed through this park everyday to come to the house... Page 128 7 Shion Damn, it's not him... 9 Mitsuhiro Shion!? Page 129 1 Mitsuhiro What are you doing here standing in this cold weather? Shion Excuse me...? 3 Mitsuhiro Ah, that's true, you don't know... It's me! 7 Shion Mi... Mitsuhiro-san? Page 130 1 Mitsuhiro Yes, as from today, I am a woman 2 Mitsuhiro Like the other assistants. 3 Mitsuhiro You can call me Hiromi Page 131 1 Shion I knew that the people who came to the house changed because of the strange environment... Either they run away, or they accept it. 2 Shion I knew it and hoped anyway. I was not clever enough then... 3 Masahiko ...... 4 Shion It is really ridiculous, no, I've been stupid!! Page 132 1 Masahiko Now I understand... It is true that you hate Christmas... Shion ...... 2 Shion Hey... What are you crying for, dofus? You really are strange. All my friends who I told this story have laughed!! 3 Masahiko I'm sorry for being an imbecile!! Page 133 1 Masahiko Hey, hoo, Shion!? 2 Shion I'm all dizzy... He he, I surely drank too much... 7 Narration I didn't see her face, but I was sure that Shion cried I though that it wasn't like her... It must surely have been because of the alcohol... But... Page 134 1 Narration That night, Shion was a girl It was the first time she showed herself to me as a 16 years old girl... 2 Masahiko Hey, you're okay? Shion Sure! 4 Masahiko Say... 6 Masahiko Do you still feel anything for Hiromi...? Shion ...... 7 Shion No, I'm not the type to insist... Only... Page 135 1 Masahiko Only...? Shion ...... 2 Shion Because of that situation, maybe I became a little distrustful of boys... 3 Shion That is to say... All the boys who have come to the house have ended up by becoming women! Masahiko ...... Shion Even if I fall in love and I take him home.. I'm not sure that after getting to know my family... He too changes.... 4 Masahiko That... That could be! 5 Masahiko ? 6 Shion It's been over six months since you arrived at the house! Masahiko Hm? 7 Shion At the moment that you came to live with us... I told myself... They it wouldn't take six months before you would become a woman too!! Page 136 1 Masahiko I don't want to become a transvestite...! Shion You have been dressing up as a woman a lot, but you kept your male character! Masahiko Uh... Well... 2 Shion You haven't turned into a girl and you haven't ran away either...! You still like girls and you declare loudly that you are a boy!! 4 Shion If you continue to like girls... And if you continue to acknowledge that you're a boy... 5 Shion Maybe my distrust to men will go away... 6 Shion It is maybe you who can change me! Page 137 3 Shion Would you like... To change me...? Page 138 Page 139 1 Masahiko Shion... 4 Masahiko Hey... don't fall asleep here!! Get up, you're not pretending again!? 5 Yoko Giba? 7 Masahiko ....... Narration Yo... Yoko!?
