You didn't get along with your brother and were lonely all by yourself You couldn't relate to anyone normal and, naturally, no one could relate to you either So you went and bought yourself a red sportscar and a long-haired purebred dog named "Alexander"! 025 [Misaki:]hehheh! [Usami:]How did you know... [Misaki:]ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?! [text above Misaki:]This guy really is a living manga character [Misaki:]ah And you're a little warped too aren't you? Your mom took a lover on the side and you witnessed them together which traumatized you for life. You could never be with a woman after that. Instead you turned to your kindly older tutor, awakening your base desires for men, ha ha ha [Usami:].......Did you read all of this in the newspaper or something?... [arrow:]a stereotypical poor-little-rich-boy to the last drop [Misaki:]REALLY?!! [Usami:]...somehow [both:]I get the feeling this won't quite work out 026 [both:]but [misaki:]my brother... [usami:]Takahiro... [both:]for his sake I'll put up with it [sfx:]zuuuuuu...n [Usami:]Well? What are you shooting for? [Misaki:]Matsumoto [Usami:]heh talking in your sleep? 027 [Misaki:]What the hell is with you picking me to pieces bit by bit?! You don't know me or my circumstances, do you?! [sfx:]kii---shi [Usagi:]but I do I've already been given a copy of all your scores [sfx:]bira [Usami:]Your last exam is full of careless misses and stupid mistakes YOU DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND THE QUESTIONS [Misaki:]ARGH [Usami:]Even if you could raise these pathetic scores, where would you study? [Misaki:]Matsumoto University! I have to get into Matsumoto University!! I have to be accepted to Matsumoto for my brother's sake. Do you really think it's hopeless?! [Usami:]? Why bring Takahiro into this now? 028 [Misaki:]ah Don't you already know? 10 years ago our parents died in an accident, my brother raised me all by himself he tried to get into Matsumoto [Takahiro:]I'm going to take care of Misaki I'll raise him myself because I don't want us to have to split up [Misaki:]but he was so busy taking care of me that he gave up. ...That's why I want to get into the same school that my brother was rejected from... so... I don't know if you have any ulterior motives but... 029 [sfx:]gusha [sfx:]bikuu [Usami:]I understand your reason and I'll personall guarantee you a passing grade! The infamous Usami-sensei is going to take you under his wing aren't you lucky?! [Misaki:]...oh OOOHHHHH!! [narration:]Somehow I felt that I could trust this shady guy and we started studying right away to pass to Matsumoto entrance exam sections in both comprehension and writing---- [sfx:]dan haahaaa [Misaki:]HAH!! 030 [Usami:]ahh You got a C this time, well done [Misaki:]hahahaha At this rate my victory is surely at hand! kakaka [Usami:]I don't know about that [small:]maybe if you study [Misaki:]hohohoho I can do anything! [narration:]Which means Usagi-san's teaching method actually is superior to my teachers at school. [small:]though I hate to admit it [Usami:]but Takahiro is going to be really happy too I want to see his smiling face when you tell him you've passed. [Misaki:]...Usagi-san... do you really love my brother that much? [Usami:]Why ask so suddenly? I told you I love him, didn't I? Don't worry yourself over my crush that story I wrote is only a fantasy [Misaki:]b-but my brother is dating someone, isn't he?! 031 [Usami:]I know [Misaki:]..... [Usami:]But as his friend I can have the priviledge of staying beside him always [Misaki:]If you really love someone, isn't it better to chase them and look out for your own best interests? [Usami:]hahaha You're young I am my motivations are purely selfish I just don't want him to hate me 032 [Misaki:]...... [narration:]---lately I've come to understand [text~small:]There's a Riki-san Jr too [narration:]Usagi-san would never want to hurt or upset my brother It's like protecting the most precious precious treasure he has But my brother really doesn't see him as anything more than "a good friend" even so he bears it he's so sincere [Misaki:]idiot [narration:]and my brother's an idiot too [Misaki:]...this way is too painful, isn't it? 033 [Misaki:]oh...... OOOOOOOOOHHH.... a...AWESOME!! [sfx:]purupurupuru [Misaki:]In just this short time, suddenly grades like this!! I really AM a genius...!! [text above:]wonderful...!!

Usagi will never believe this I want to see him as soon as I can He's going to flip out! 034 [Misaki:]ha [sfx:]yoro.... [Misaki:]Wait, did I really just say that? "Usagi will never believe this"? "I want to see him as soon as I can"? When did I start babbling about him? I did think he was with my brother at first but... NO WAY, I, I'm... I'M NOT GAY~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!
