Chihiro: The happy, embarrassing 3 legged race.  I'm glad I can be with you, Fubuki-chan, like this...

Fubuki: ----hm?  Oh, sorry, did you say something?

Narration: (laugh)

Fubuki: I wasn't listening.  Sorry.  Sorry.

Chihiro: .....
	 Oh, I see.

Narration: Pheromone blocker
	 turned on.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: Alright!  Let's aim for the Goode Child Trophy.  Practice, practice!
	 2-A will win!

Chihiro: .....you go at your own pace don't you, Fubuki-chan.

Girl: ......
Girl: --
	 I can't believe it!  That Fubuki-chan-
Girls: You get that close to Chihiro-kun and still don't feel a thing!
	 Yeah!
	 And you [call yourself] a girl!?
	 I'd be melting.  Goodness--

Fubuki: Well sorry!
	 You guys are over-reacting!

~~~~
Fubuki thinks: That guy should be feared with those pheromones!  How many girls have been fooled by that face?
	 If it wasn't for the sake of winning at the Field Day, who'd [do anything with] that sadist......
Fubuki: .........
Fubuki thinks: Not quite?
Fubuki thinks: Recently Chihiro isn't as repulsive as before, wonder why?

Yamato: te ke te ke
	 Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: Kobayashi-kun.
Fubuki: Huh, what?  The 3 legged race?

Yamato: <nodding>
	 Yeah.  Yeah.

~~~~~~~~
Yamato: Um, I was thinking maybe you were troubled by your partner.  If so, I can trade...
	 <fidgeting>
	 I don't run fast, but if you'd like-

Fubuki: Ko... Kobayashi-kun
	 <hug>

Yamato: Huh!?

Girl: The chairman's at it again.

Fubuki: You were worried about me.
	 You're a nice kid.
	 But I'm ok.
	 Fubuki'll do her best.
Fubuki thinks: <sigh> but like that we can't win--

Narration: <- at heart she's calm.

Yamato: I- I see...

Girl: she's been bold lately.

Fubuki: You're the only one who tells me that kind of thing, Kobayashi-kun...
	 <heart beat>
Fubuki: .....er, not quite.....
Fubuki remembers: "Want me to trade?  For the 3 legged race."

~~~~
Fubuki remembers: --me with you-
Fubuki thinks: bu- bu- bu- but that didn't mean anything in particular to Kengo-kun.
	 --that is, in other words, this...
Fubuki thinks: ...I arbitrarily-
Fubuki: <heart beats>
	 ...yeah.
	 He's a nice guy!
	 <heart beat>
	 No, seriously.
Fubuki thinks: -have a racing pulse.  That's all.

<school chimes>

Fubuki: Hm.
	 <rustle>

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: What's this, a letter?
	 <rustle>

Paper: Ugly

Girls: We're going back to the classroom--
	 Ok--
	 <excitement>
	 What is it Fubuki-chan?
	 You'll be late for class--?
	 <excitement>
Girl: .........
	 <giggle>

Fubuki thinks: How surprising...

Narration: (laugh)

Fubuki thinks: ......but, well-
Fubuki thinks: There's been some mistake.  I'm not that type.

Narration: <- the type that's a target.

<talking>

Fubuki thinks: Oh well, who cares.
Fubuki: <opens lunch>
	 Lunch.

Paper: Fatty

Fubuki: ..................you'll make me lose my appetite!

~~~~
Fubuki thinks: but, after all that...
Fubuki thinks: <gasp>!
	 Again!

Paper: Shorty

Fubuki thinks: What the!?
Fubuki thinks: ...say, something's wrong!

Narration: 167cm.

Fubuki thinks: <gasp>
	 ...no, it's definitely wrong!

Narration: (laugh)

Fubuki thinks: Pranks...?  Even so, this is...

Papers: Wiry hair
	 Baldy
	 Dunce
	 High blood pressure

Fubuki thinks: Come on.
	 ? ? I have no idea
	 who might do this kind of thing.

Paper: I'll curse you.

Fubuki: Is- it- you-!?  Chihiro Kobayashi!!

Narration: (laugh)

Fubuki: You- You-

Chihiro: ?
	 What is it.  Goodness.  I'm trying to read.

Book: There Are There Are
	 Trap Encyclopedia

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: thinks: ......huh?
	 ...it's not him.
	 ...I see.  It is a bit weak for one of the sadist's traps.
	 And it's feminine handwriting.
Fubuki: Then who on earth...?

Girls: <excited screams>
	 <excited scream> Kobayashi-kun, how cute--

Yamato: Huh--?  I should cheer you on like this--?
	 It's too big--

Girls: Like that the chairman'll be able to run for kilometers.
	 <laugh>
	 You said it--
	 Oh yeah--

Fubuki thinks: How- how cute--

Girls: <laugh>
	 Go-- go-- 2-A
Girl: .........

Paper: Little boy lover.

Narration: <- This is true. (laugh)

Fubuki: How frustrating...
	 She got me--...

~~~~
Fubuki thinks: Did I... do something that would make someone hate me? ?
Fubuki: .....Hmm?
Fubuki: Next is the 3 legged race.  How are the Kozue-chan, Higashitani pair doing?

<excitement>

Classmates: Higashitani's crying...
	 He can't stand the open wound.

Higashitani: <sniveling>

Kozue: Leave it to me--
	 Yeah, we're in perfect condition--!!

~~~~~~~~
Classmates: Kozue-chan's really ready to go for it...
	 As expected of 2-A's most athletic event type girl...

Kozue: Ok--
	 Let's go Higashitani!

Higashitani: --

Classmate: We're gambling on the team competition--
	 Since all we've got is cooperation.
	 With the chairman's pair it seems we're going for a 1, 2 win in the 3 legged race.

Fubuki: Wh- whoah-
Fubuki: <pant, pant>

Chihiro: Why are you in a hurry?

Fubuki: N- no!  It's nothing.

Chihiro: Are you tired?  Want a break?

Fubuki: Um, th- then for a little while.

Chihiro: Here.

Fubuki thinks: Som-
	 Somehow-
Fubuki: <thud>
	 <pant, pant>
	 <gasp>
	 I'm shaking--
Fubuki thinks: I- I'm not imagining it.  He's really picked up the pace!
Fubuki: <pant, pant>
Fubuki thinks: I thought about it during practice, but I understand if I compare it to running with Hikage earlier.

Hikage: Ow, ow.
	 I'm scared.

Fubuki: You're too slow!

Hikage: Sorry.

~~~~
Fubuki thinks: ...it's frustrating but that Chihiro
	 --is seriously good at leading!
Fubuki: Darn--

Chihiro: Hm.
Chihiro: <grin>
	 --you were fascinated by my appearance just now, weren't you?

Fubuki: Wasn't!

Chihiro: All lies.
	 <sticks out his tongue>--

Fubuki: What?
	 Idiots also keep saying, 'break, break'! ...er, we are breaking now!
	 Darn it, what are you making me say.

~~~~~~~~
Chihiro: <laugh>

Fubuki: <shriek> Don't laugh!?

Classmates: ......... don't those two get along well?
	 How unexpected.
	 Aren't they?

Girl: --

Chihiro: So, let's practice Lassie.
	 Fetch this.

Fubuki: You're changing the event.
Fubuki: <flinch>
Fubuki thinks: Kengo Kobayashi!

~~~~
Kengo: ...do you mind?
	 I'd like some water.

Fubuki: Huh? ...oh!  Yeah!
	 <gasp>
	 Sorry.
Fubuki: <heart beats>
	 ......

Kengo: Then--
Kengo: ...Chairman, how've things been going since then?

Fubuki: <flinch>
	 --huh!?  Oh, the 3 legged race!?
	 Um, yeah!  That is speaking of the sadist, he really is fast!
	 He's good at leading.

Kengo: ......hmm.

Fubuki: Yeah, yeah!  It's unexpected isn't it?  For this event it seems I match up best with him!
	 <laugh>

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: So you don't have to worry either...
	 Hey?

Kengo: <dripping>
	 .........that kind of thing-
	 <click>
Kengo: --you don't know unless you try!

Fubuki: <sweating>
	 I-

Fubuki: I understand--
	 that!

Narration: <painfully>

Fubuki: <running>

Girl: ......

Narration: The man who's been dumped twice. (laugh)

Kengo: .....

Fubuki thinks: Oh- oh dear.  That Kengo.
Fubuki: <running>...

Sign: -n Room.

Fubuki thinks: Why'd he bring this up again?
Fubuki: <pant>
	 <pant, pant>
	 Please stop.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: My heart won't stop pounding.  I could take it wrong.

<talking>

Fubuki: <door noise>
	 <sigh>
Fubuki thinks: Then afterwards, I'm sure I'm the one who's embarrassed.
Fubuki: .........

Paper: Cheater. [Translator's note: with the meaning of 'on her boyfriend']

Fubuki: --there!

Girl: <flinch>
Girl: !?

Narration: (laugh)

Yamato: Oh, Fubuki-chan!
	 There's a problem!, Um...

Fubuki: <running>

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: Hey you-

Yamato: .........

Hikage: Kobayashi-kun, Kobayashi-kun-
Hikage: What do you mean by "a problem"?
	 Kobayashi-kun?

Classmate: Huh, the chairman's- ?

Yamato: <gasp>!
	 <turn>
	 Yeah, um!

Classmates: Higashitani's been injured!?
	 Huh!?
	 Why!?
Classmates: He said Kozue-chan pulled him along in the 3 legged race......
	 for over 30m...
	 He's at the hospital now....
	 <shudder>
	 Too scary...!
	 What'll we do?  The 3 legged race...

Kozue: <sob>
	 <howl>
	 I'm sorry--
	 Higashitani--
Kozue: <crying>

Hikage: Is there another boy who can run instead?
	 With Kozue-chan-

Boys: <shaking their heads>!!
	 Not a chance!!

Girls: There's not really any guys that can beat her power......
	 Hmm, hmm, hmm-

Girls: <stare>

Kengo: ...............?

Girl: --

Fubuki: Huh?  What's this?

~~~~~~~~
Girl: <running>

Narration: <-A bit chubby.

Fubuki: <heart beats>

Paper: <rustle>
Paper: How dare you be called Lassie!

Fubuki thinks: I see!  That girl [likes] Chihiro......
Fubuki: !
	 A victim of pheromones...

Chihiro: Small, with dark eyes, coarse, long hair, a frown and on top of that trembling?

Narration: (laugh)

Chihiro: What's that-
	 some dog somewhere?
Chihiro: I have no idea.

~~~~
Fubuki: You say you don't know ......really!?  One of your fans!?
	 Not a dog, a girl!

Chihiro: It's not like I'm putting out pheromones on purpose.  It's obviously some girl I don't know.
Chihiro: I don't give all of them my personal attention.  It's a problem if they misunderstand.

Fubuki: <throb>
	 Th...at's true, but...
Fubuki thinks: Chihiro's saying the truth, but... but like that...

Chihiro: So did something happen?

Fubuki: Um, the girl......

<toss>

~~~~~~~~
<splat>

Students: Huh-
	 What was that strange noise...

Girl: <trembling>

Fubuki: .....

Student: To- to that chairman from 2-A...
	 How formidable.....!

Fubuki thinks: "Don't say anything unnecessary!"
	 ...Oh, I see...

Girl: <trembling>

Fubuki thinks: I see.  I'm sorry.  Oh, don't shake so much.
	 It's ok.
Fubuki thinks: .........how cute.  Somehow, just like a girl...

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: I understand.  Your heart beats pile up and up.
	 You couldn't do anything about it yourself.
	 It was hard.

Chihiro: ...............
Chihiro: <glance>

Girl: <flinch>

~~~~
Fubuki: !?
	 -- Uh-oh!!

Girl: <terrified>

Fubuki thinks: <heart beats>
	 Th- that's bad.  That's bad!!
	 <heart beats>
	 I do understand your feelings too, but-!  Ignoring her would be better, but- !
	 But-

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: You mustn't hurt this girl anymore--!

	 Is- is she an animal tamer?  That girl-

Fubuki thinks: I-

Chihiro: <bark, bark>

Fubuki: Not "your hand", "your head", huh?
Fubuki thinks: I understand.
	 Considering I'm not as repulsed as before......
	 It seems I've somehow developed
Fubuki thinks: some sympathy for this guy--......
Fubuki: A-
	 Apologize to this girl.
	 <sigh>
	 <pull>

Chihiro: Huh--?
	 Why?

Fubuki: It's you fault!  Whyever!!
	 <grr>

Chihiro: <glance>
	 .........

~~~~~~~~
Chihiro: Sorry.

Students: We give up.

Label: simply.

Fubuki thinks: Good grief...
	 <laugh>
Fubuki: <smile>
	 My apologies as well.
	 I caused you to misunderstand.

Label: As promised

Girl: <emotional>
Girl: Older sister. [Narration: i.e. she now really likes/respects Fubuki]

Fubuki thinks: --like that
Fubuki thinks: the curtain has closed on this incident--

<school chimes>

Fubuki thinks: ......so I thought.
Fubuki: Huh!?

~~~~
Fubuki: Higashitani's been injured--!?

Classmates: <talking>

Yamato: That's right!  Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: Then what'll we do about Kozue-chan's partner for the 3 legged race!?

Yamato: W- well-
	 <heart beat>

Kozue: That is, it's incredible!  Listen up, isn't he already running in 6 events?
Kozue: So I asked even though I knew it probably wouldn't work.

Fubuki thinks: Huh.

Kozue: --guess!  Kengo-kun accepted!
	 Isn't it incredible!?

~~~~~~~~
Kengo: Chairman, like this we can aim for a 1, 2 finish.

Fubuki thinks: Wh-
