Taiga: LUCY!!! / That’s great~~!! / I thought you vanished without a word!!!
Lucy: ah, It hurts, it hurts—! / a… but I’m kind of happy..
Aika: Mandrake?
Naomi: that reminds me.. that guy used to talk to empty spaces…

 

2

Naomi: The mandrake… is floating

Aika: Taiga-kun seems to be saying something to it… / taiga and that root… I think he said ‘Lucy’…. When he’s mumbling to himself he often mentions this name

Naomi: I’ve heard this name too

Aika: want to ask about it?

Naomi: Yes, but it looks like a secret…We didn’t know of it before, so he wouldn’t tell us now / but I really want to know / yeah…

<- what the two of them see

 

3

Taiga: ah, right, you’re back but it’s magic Lockdown day / because normal people will be coming, so you have to hide in the gardening club’s greenhouse the whole day

Voice: Taiga-kun!!

Lucy: a, not good! / sorry Taiga, I forgot to hide myself!!

Taiga: What, why didn’t you say so!!!

Naomi: Taiga… We saw that!! / Talking just now..

Taiga: what are the both of you doing here..

Naomi: is Lucy isn’t it?

Taiga: No~~~~ not good

 

4

Taiga: uh, that… this is…

Naomi: we won’t tell anybody, tell us

TaigaThinking: This is bad, if this thing about Lucy is exposed, then—

Taiga; no no, you guys must have got it wrong? It’s not that

Taigathinking: Hey!! Lucy, reveal yourself!!

Lucy: huh? The usual way I look?

Taigathinking: we’ve been seen, there’s no other way!! / I have to find a way to bluff myself out of this.

Taiga: ahaha, look! it’s a puppet. / I was practicing in secret—

Aika: so…. So cute!!

Naomi: what is this!!!

 

5

Naomi: was this the mandrake root just now?

Taiga; ah…?

Aika: you’re kidding, so it was like that? How awesome

Lucy: taiga… I was seen as a root, nobody saw me in human form

Taiga: What did you say!! / ah, I’m joking, I’m joking, this is—

Aika: since it’s come to this, there’s no use hiding!!

Naomi: hey, you’re Lucy aren’t you?

Aika: Let us see it again!!

Lucy: that’s right, I’m Lucy

 

6

BGW: NO~~~!! Exposed after all!!

Aika: It can talk too, I’m Hiiragi Aika

Lucy: ah, I know

Naomi: I’m Mizuki Naomi, I’ve seen mandrakes in human form before, but this is the first time I’ve seen one so complete—

Aika: Really~~~ how sly, Taiga was hiding this sort of thing—

Taiga: … ah.. that was because the school doesn’t allow us to bring in organisms..

Naomi: ah?! But wait! / this appearance.. why naked? / you.. have been hanging around taiga like that?

Lucy: Yes…

 

7

Naomi: Ah~~~~ you’re lying~~~!! Hanging out naked like that, don’t you feel disgusted?

Taiga: A!

Aika: yes.. a little..

Taiga: Stu-stupid, what are you talking about— This isn’t any different from a doll / I didn’t think so much about it?

Aika: doll… So you have this sort of hobby, Taiga-kun? No… pervert.

Taiga: It’s not like that!! Hey, you say something

Naomi: That’s more suspicious..

Aika: I feel disappointed… / oh!! Yesterday the sewing club made some doll clothes. Let’s borrow some clothes for her.

Naomi: ok, let’s go let’s go

Lucy: ah~~ but I have to hide in the greenhouse the whole day today!!

 

8

Naomi: hey!! You can’t come in

Taiga: what are you up to? Lucy’s my..

Naomi: My… what? This is female territory.

Aika: a girl is going to change clothes, so please be considerate, Taiga-kun!

Taiga: hey, wait a minute! / ah~~~ this is bad~~~ Lucy’s existence has been completely exposed— / my secret’s in danger / In that case, I’ve got to get help from Daddy Hiiragi or the principal—

 

10

Aika: Ya~~ that’s great~~~!!!

Naomi: Try this next—! Our school uniform!!! / thinking back, since that trip to the cave, you appeared. I didn’t notice at all.

Aika: daddy should know about this… It’ll be nice if he told me— 

 

11

Lucy: um, there are a lot of reasons…If everybody knows, I’ll be in danger / the only ones who know are taiga, Hiiragi-sensei and the principal, the 3 of them.

Naomi: ho~~~ So we’re your first female friends? / though there’s the principal.

Lucy: Female friends..? / really!? / I’m so happy~~!! You’re willing to be friends with me?!

Naomi: we would also like to get to know Lucy better!! Please take care of us!!

Aika: We won’t tell anyone about Lucy, so Lucy can tell us anything, there’s no need to hide.

Lucy: Anything?

 

12

Principal: okok, lucy has been found out.

Taiga: Yes, it’s a big problem!!

Principal: then how about

Taiga: Now is not the time to dawdle, erase the memories of the both of them…

Principal: Memories? Why?

Taiga: what why, what will we do if my secret’s exposed?

Principal: Taiga-kun, surely you know Lucy better than I do. / do you think that child will say anything unfavorable to you?

 

13

Naomi: hu… do you really like taiga—- If you’re so concerned, that guy definitely won’t say anything about Lucy to anyone.

Aika: He didn’t even tell us, right?

Naomi: How unexpected, if we’d known about this, we’ll definitely let Lucy wear clothes.

Aika: a— / but I fell a bit disgusted—does Taiga-kun really have such a weird hobby?

Lucy: Taiga isn’t a weird guy like that

Naomi: Don’t you know?— You can’t tell what guys are thinking about. Maybe he has dirty thoughts about you—

Lucy: there’s no such thing!!

Naomi: That guy didn’t take advantage of you? Like make you buy drinks for him, things like that. / if he makes you do stuff like that, you must tell us.

BGW: Definitely have something like that before.

 

14

Lucy: I don’t want this anymore! / I don’t care if we’re friends

Naomi: huh!? What’s wrong?

Aika: Did we make you angry?

Lucy: I’m not going to be friends with people who speak badly of taiga! / Taiga has always valued me!! He even cried for me / He’s the most important person to me!! / good-bye.

Aika: ah!! wait, Lucy!!

 

15

Taiga: hm~~~ / I know very well what the principal said. / but that girl, over time—even if she didn’t mean it, she’ll say it by accident. / …ah, ouch! What? / u, Hey~~~!! What are you doing? / HEY!!!

Lucy: Che— I’m so pissed at the two of them / they keep telling me bad things about taiga~~~

Taiga: I.. they said that about me / I feel a little depressed

Voice: Taiga-kun!!!

Lucy: ah, crap…

 

16

Aika: Lucy didn’t come here? / It seems we made her angry.

Taiga: she’s— ….

Lucy: no, don’t say it

Aika: seems like the joke got out of hand

Naomi: I didn’t mean to speak badly of taiga, I was just kidding and didn’t expect her to take it for real.

Aika: If we hurt her feelings, we’d like to apologise.

Naomi: Maybe she won’t forgive us anymore…we really wanted to be friends.

Taiga: … Lucy, come out. / Alright, come out

Lucy: !! hey—!!

Lucy!!

 

17

Aika: sorry, we didn’t mean it. We didn’t consider Lucy’s feelings, we’re sorry.

Naomi: This— because I exaggerated the more I talked. / we know that this guy is not so perverted.

Aika: you don’t want to befriend us anymore?

Lucy: ah… this

Taiga: Lucy, there’s no need to get angry over me / these two will value you too. / it’s a rare opportunity to make friends isn’t it?

BGW: Most important is not to say too much

Lucy: … then I forgive you both

 

18

Aika: that’s great, then let’s start again

Naomi: Pleased to meet you!!! / let’s get along well from now on

Lucy: However, no talking bad about taiga!! / when a guy is thought badly of by the girl he likes…

Taiga: AH~~~!! / I’ve told you not to talk rubbish, say any more and I’ll blend you!!

BGW: Danger level UP?!

Naomi: No sudden outburst, Lucy’ll be frightened!! / guys are so annoying, right? / the girls will help you!

BGW: Although this matter is solved, Taiga doesn’t feel too good about it.
