I’m floating on my back on the ocean, slowly drifting along.
I’m not sure what it is, but I feel like I’ve spent more time lying down than standing today.
… What does it mean to be vertical?(E/N: The translator said it means what it means… ‘standing’ just dont try to understand it.)
The time was three o’clock in the afternoon.
After lunch at the beach house, we played a little beach volleyball and then went back into the ocean because it was too hot.
But this time it was not in the shallows, but out to sea.
In the morning, Cheena was too scared to go, but I guess she’s getting used to the ocean.
It felt so good to bathe her back in the cool ocean water under the hot sun.
A little further away, I could see my classmates having a great time.
Some were riding on the banana boat, some were falling off, some were caught in the floatation rings and feeling the waves, and others were having fun in different ways.
And there was Soji floating near me again.
No, I pretended to be drifting and casually approached him.
In the sea, I am invincible.
Now, now is the time for revenge. …
“Yori!”
“Kagami, Shimizu! Hi!”
“Kagami? … Oh, there you are.”
… caught.
How are you so lucky? Do you automatically emit pheromones when you’re in danger? Bees?
(T/N: Time for some science. In biology, pheromones is a chemical substance that is usually produced by an animal and serves especially as a stimulus to other individuals of the same species for one or more behavioral responses. [Source: Merriam-Webster Dictionary])
Iori is saying that when he is about to pounce on Soji for what he did earlier, stripping his rash guard, the girls are like his knight in shining armor stopping Iori from doing anything. Soji is a lucky guy. Lol)
I don’t think I’ve ever been able to compete with him.
I’m so angry.
When I looked towards the direction of the call, I saw Cheena holding a floating duck and Akimoto, a strong swimmer, approaching me.
They must have taken advantage of the opportunity to get away from the group.
The class group did not seem to have noticed, and they were still making noise.
“I’m here because Cheena wants to play with Kagami-kun. Jeez, the both of you! You’ve come all this way, but you shouldn’t be separated.”
“After what happened, how can we play together?”
“I’m sorry.”
Akimoto clasped her hands together and apologized.
As I was standing (swimming) talking with Akimoto like that, Cheena spoke to me just as the conversation was breaking up.
“That’s great, Yori! The ocean! It’s so wide and deep!”
She was very excited.
At first she was a little scared of being away from land, but now she seemed to be enjoying it very much.
That said, it doesn’t look big, but I understand.
Cheena buries her face in the duck as she talks happily.
Her cheeks relax as if she’s savoring the feel of the water as she rubs her cheek against the yellow duck with a skin made of plastic.
… She’s so cute.
Why don’t you go ahead and sing “Kuroneko Pancake”?
(T/N: Kuroneko Pancake is a song taken from the RPG Fate/Grand Order and sung by Abbygail. It is about making a black cat into a pancake. Chills)
Regardless, I’m glad she’s having fun.
I couldn’t help but break into a smile.
I was worried about what would happen before I came, but my fears were unfounded.
“You’re such a kid. Don’t get too excited and get stung by a jellyfish, okay?”
“Jellyfish? What happens if I get stung?”
“It hurts like h**l and the worst that can happen is you drown.”
When Cheena heard this, she felt scared.
“What can you do about the jellyfish if you’re not careful?”
Then Soji came up to us on his back and joined the conversation.
This guy is a deft swimmer …
I’m not sure how he knew we were talking about jellyfish.
“I heard that there are sunscreens that protect you against jellyfish, but you don’t see them in Japan.”
“What’s he saying?”
“He said he was scared of jellyfish and wanted to go home. Oh, how Soji like.”
We continued our conversation for a while.
The sun beating down on us, the cold water, the friendly conversation.
Not bad. Next year, it might be good to come here with a small group.
I was just thinking about that when I heard the sound…
“больно (Bol’no)!”
Suddenly, Cheena shouted, more loudly than she had ever shouted before.
“It hurts,” … she said.
Seriously … a jellyfish?
Akimoto was surprised to hear Cheena’s scream.
The rest of the class and the surrounding swimmers around me must have heard, because they all turned their attention to me at once.
“W-what, what is it!?”
“Are you drowning?”
Suddenly, the area began to buzz.
It was probably due to Andon jellyfish gushing out from the basin of the sea.
(T/N: Time for another Science. The Andon jellyfish is a poisonous jellyfish with an umbrella about 3 centimeters in diameter and tentacles about 15 centimeters long. The umbrella is colorless and transparent, and the tentacles are milky white. Andon jellyfish are sometimes called “electric jellyfish,” and their tentacles have strong stinging venom.
