Kiss ha Naisho ni [Keep the Kiss a Secret] by Takeuchi Masami Source: Shoujo Comic Volume 3.4, 2001 Translated: Dianne Dimabuyo (DiDi) Chapter 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: Kiss ha Naisho ni is owned by Takeuchi Masami. This is a fan translation and no money is made off of this. Notes: These translations are *loose* translations. I've translated them so they make sense, not as much as you may understand everything word-for-word. Why? One, it doesn't always make too much sense. Two, I've been told I can be too strict on it sometimes, and I should just translate to vernacular. Mind you, I'm still trying to be as accurate as possible. If you've found a translation that is closer to the dictionary meaning, yet still makes sense, please don't hesitate to inform me. Thanks. : text in bubbles * floating text > sound [] translator's additional notes.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 227 * Takeuchi Masami * Alone with a really cool guy...!? After all, it's just our guess, if that kind of thing happens, ... kind of thing. Even though he's her older brother... * Chapter 2 Alone!? [Note: "Just the two of us!?"] * KEEP THE KISS A SECRET Life with My Boy * The topic is quickly boiling up! Very popular new story!! --- Page 228 [advertisement] --- Page 229 * Dad got remarried * It's been two weeks since I've had a "mother" and an "older brother". Mom: Takeru!

Takeru: I'm not teasing. Ne? Takeru: Hurry up and change. Ayumi: Argh.... Ayumi: Getting really worked up starting in the morning.... * Takeru-kun is cool, and nice, and the idol of the girls in school. * A guy like him falls in love with someone like me somehow * I'm happy. I'm happy, but... Mom: Why is Ayumi-chan sitting so far away from Takeru? --- Page 231 Takeru: That's right. A little closer this way. Ayumi: Ah.. So.. sorry... * Sing I'm getting used to Takeru-kun treating me like a girl, it should be nothing, but [Note: a girl, as opposed to a younger sister. ^^ ] * I'm not really immune to this * St..stop.. my heart. [Note: "Stop beating so hard"] Mom: Mou... What now? They get along so badly. Mom: Maybe we shouldn't go on our honeymoon after all. --- Page 232 Takeru: Honeymoon? Mom: Yeah. This coming weekend, 2 nights and 3 days, in Atami. * Eh. * So for 2 nights and 3 days * I'll be alone with Takeru-kun!? Takeru: That's okay. Just go. Takeru: We'll get along fine while you're gone.

But hasn't it only been a month since we've known each other!? [Note: in reference to Takeru] Noriko: That doesn't matter. Since you live together. Girls: Eh---!? What, what? Who are living together!? Live-ins!? Noriko: Yeah. Ayumi: Noriko!? Noriko: Just talking about Ayumi's friend. Girl1: He---- Ayumi-chan's friend is living with her boyfriend, but they're not doing H? [Note: I'm fairly sure you know what "H" means... ^^; ] Girl1: There's something wrong with that. Off-shot (Ayumi): Bu..but it's only been a month? Off-shot: What are you saying? That's such a waste! If it had been me, I'd do it every night! Ayumi: E.. every night? Girl2: Of course! Girl1: Don't you know? Hayashino from section 5 went skiing with her boyfriend during winter break. They did it 4 times a night. Off-shot: Realy--? Wow--- Off-shot: And then--- His xxx in xxx---- When Hayashino was xxx, they said they were really going at it. * kyahaha.. Going at it like monkeys---- --- Page 234 Girl1: Hey, Kyouno, are you alright? You're really having a nosebleed there. * (Girl2) Should we go to the clinic? Ayumi: I'm.. I'm fine. * xxx and xxx... * I.. I wonder if I have to do that, too... * Argh.. What to do... Ayumi: Kya~~~~~~ * I like Takeru-kun, but * it's pretty scary!! * But on that merciless day Ayumi: Gochisou-sama-- Ayumi: M.. Mom's so great, isn't she? She made us meals to last 2 days and 3 nights.. Takeru: She's really treating us like kids. Takeru: But then, we're not kids, are we? --- Page 235 Ayumi: We.. well, no.. but um... Takeru: That, said, here. Beer. Today's special, so we won't tell Dad. Ayumi: ..Yeah * Ah.. That's what he meant... * Oh, no. I'm feeling so conscious.. * Calm down Calm down Ayumi: Huh? It won't open... Takeru: Here * ...Uwah...! Takeru: There, it's open. I'm gonna watch TV over there. * ...Ah... * My heart's already worn out from just tonight... Ayumi: Ayumi: --- Page 236 * On the other hand * (Takeru) Hmm.. Wonder which one to watch... * Takeru-kun is still the same as usual * I wonder if he's used to these kinds of situations * Takeru-kun is pretty popular [Note: I think she's referring to him being used to situations when he'd be alone with girls since he's so popular.. Therefore, there wouldn't really be an attitude shift] Ayumi: Hm. Thinking like that so suddenly's giving me a bad feeling. Takeru: Ah! Takeru: Ayumi-chan! You mustn't just gulp it down! Ayumi: Eh? Ah, no more. Tkaeru: Ah... Mou.... Your face is really red, are you alright? Ayumi: Give me yours, too. * Hey, now, tiger. [^^;] Takeru: Hey!! Ayumi: Ah.. Sorry! Takeru: Ah.. It's ok. It's alright. --- Page 237 * Ah... Takeru: ...Are you ok? Takeru: Ayumi-chan... * ...Closer and closer * He's getting closer and closer --- Page 238 * ...But * it has to wait, after all...!! Ayumi: Ta... Takeru-kun. You..you're all soaked in beer, you'll catch a cold. Ayumi: You should take a shower right away. Takeru: Ok. I gotcha. Takeru: Wait for me.

Girl2: Ah, Kakei-kun *heart* Ohayo--- *heart* Guy1: O---su, Kakei--- Takeru: Ah.. ohayou. Guy1: You're not with your new sister? [Note: "Ohayou" --> "good morning". "O---su" is just another greeting, maybe like "what's up?" or just "hey"] Takeru: ...Yeah. Takeru: I don't want to see her face today. --- Page 241 Noriko: Stupid. Ayumi: But, but~~~~~ That's because I drank beer~~~~ Noriko: It's not really a but, though, is it? If I was your boyfriend, I'd push you off onto the floor. Girls: What, what!? Continuation of yesterday's story!? * Let us join in!! Noriko: That's right. "Ayumi's friend" Girl2: She fell asleep before they were going to do H!? Girl1: That's awful---! He probably hates her now. * Hate...? Ayumi: It...it's not like that! He's really nice and lovey-dovey Girl1: Not so lovey-dovey. She fell asleep, didn't she--? Girl1: That's not how a guy would look at it. That would really turn them off. Girl2: I'm sure they're gonna talk about breaking up tonight. --- Page 242 Ayumi: It... It's not like that! Ayumi: It's alright!! Girl1: ? Why's Kyouno that mad about it? We're talking about her friend, right? Noriko [thought]: She really can't like, can she? * It's alright. * Because Takeru-kun is nice * I'm sure he's not mad * Even if he's mad, he loves me * If I apologize, I'm sure he'll forgive me * I'm sure... Ayumi: Eh? Takeru-kun went home already? Guy1: Yeah. He said he'd just drop by at the bookstore in front of the station. Ayumi: ...I see. Thanks. Bye. --- Page 243 Guy1: Ah, sis. Sis. Guy1: What did you guys fight about? He said he didn't want to see your face. Guy1: He was really feeling down. You guys should make up quick. * He doesn't want to see my face...? * (Takeru) Ayumi-chan * No way. * Because Takeru-kun loves me... * "He probably hates her now" * "I'm sure they're gonna talk about breaking up tonight." --- Page 244 * Takeru-kun..!! * No * Don't hate me * Don't hate me --- Page 245 * Takeru-kun..!!

The complexities of the word "suki"] Takeru: And this feeling won't break that easily. Takeru: I ran as quickly as I could. More important than anything else, I couldn't even consider your feelings. --- Page 252 Takeru: One way or another, I would have done it.
