Clover Chapter 2

Chapter 2 "Bitter Girl"

"Clover" by Hiyori Otsu is a series of one-shots scanlated and released by Lililicious. It focuses to four sisters with different story. The second chapter is about Tachibana Midori (the 3rd of the four sisters). Midori works in a bakery where she meets Sugiura. She invited Sugiura to work there because her co-worker suddenly quits. During Christmas, Sugiura asked Midori to have a pretend relationship since both of them are single and Midori accepted it. They started going out and as time passes by, Midori started to like Sugiura that made her think if she has those sort of leanings. One day, Sugiura comes over to Midori's home where Uzuki (the youngest sister) and Fuuka (the 2nd of the four sisters) were introduced. Midori finally discovers that she's in love with Sugiura. The next morning, a guy gave his contact number to Midori and asked Midori to contact him if she's interested. After that, Sugiura said,

"That's it for our pretend-dating. That was quicker than I expected."

Then Midori replied,

".....Yeah..."

"G-geez, I sure am popular, huh?"

After their shift, Sugiura kisses Midori and says her goodbye to her. Midori felt depressed and regrets that she agreed to have a pretend relationship with Sugiura. Suddenly, she realizes that she should stop sulking and tell Sugiura her true feelings. She was surprised when she saw Sugiura crying and told her that Sugiura was in love with her.

After that, Midori comes over to Sugiura's home where she finds out that Sugiura really came from a rich family. She also discovers that Sugiura hates sweets and it's because of her that's why Suguira comes to the bakery everyday.

*squeal* This is really my favorite among the four chapters of Clover. It's very funny and romantic too. I'm really happy that Midori and Sugiura ended up together for real.

Clover Chapter 1

Chapter 1 "Next to Her"...

"Clover" by Hiyori Otsu is a series of one-shots scanlated and released by Lililicious. It focuses to four sisters with different story. This first chapter is about the youngest of them, Tachibana Uzuki (she's already 16 years old here). She accidentally met Sakurai Shiho in the train while she's attempting to climb in the luggage rack. Her underwear was seen by Shiho that embarassed her. At school, she was surprised when Shiho transferred and became her seatmate in their class. Uzuki was very nervous that her secret (about the train incident) will be revealed that makes Shiho wants to tease her (sort of...). Uzuki shows Shiho around the school then she found out that Shiho broke some rules in the her first day in school. Uzuki decided to lend Fuuka's (the 2nd of the four sisters) uniform to her so they went to Uzuki's home together where Midori (the 3rd of the four sisters) was introduced. The next day, Shiho broke some rules again wherein Uzuki was scolded too. During lunch break, Uzuki was depressed because she's not getting along with her classmates anymore then she got pissed off of what Shiho said to her. Back to her home, Ichige (the eldest sister) and Midori notice Uzuki going straight to her room. Midori went to Uzuki's room telling her that Shiho came and returned the uniform of Fuuka. The next morning, students talk about Uzuki being called in the staff room and the reason is because she used the nail polish that Shiho has given to her. Later, Shiho asked Uzuki what she's really doing when they first met. Uzuki told her the reason that made Shiho burst out laughing. Finally, they ride the train and tried the thing that Uzuki was attempting to do when they first met.

I can't say that there's love between Shiho and Uzuki but I like the idea about breaking the rules. It's not really fun to be the obedient one always (it's sophocating). Sometimes, we need to try to break some rules to enjoy...hahaha...
