It's been some time...
I've been so busy these days, I thought my Holic addiction was cured. Until I saw this week's chapter...
Damn it. I really thought I was cured. You should never underestimate an addiction with a Clamp coupling manga, I guess o_O.
Short summary:
The chapter continues were we left of 2(?) weeks ago and Watanuki says that their names really are 'close' and asks Kohane how she writes her name. She tells him it's "小羽", written with the kanji for "small + wings". He compliments on her name, all the time calling her "Kohane-chan". She says it's been a long time since somebody called her that way, then corrects herself and says that it's been a long time since somebody called her by her name at all. They say their goodbyes and a sad-looking Watanuki is left standing in the rain. But not for long! Enter our favourite archer (with an umbrella of course!). "They say morons don't catch colds", he says. "Who are you calling a moron...", Watanuki absentmidedly replies. "But I guess idiots do (catch colds)", Doumeki says giving Watanuki(who is obviously not his usual self when been called an idiot) a look. He then holds the umbrella over Watanuki's head and says "....idiot". Yes I died the death of a fangirl the very instant I saw this page. It's that good. Next scene they're at Doumeki's house. Watanuki's gotten into some dry clothes and is drying his head with a towel. Doumeki comes into the room and offers(more like 'orders'..) Watanuki some ginger tea(if I remeber correctly) to drink. Obviously his grandfather used to make it for him when it was cold outside. Watanuki then proceeds to tell Doumeki about the woman in the tree but Doumeki interupts him to tell him he saw it himself and that he's seeing it right now. It's because "he's still swaying", he tells Watanuki. Watanuki then asks him what his family calls Doumeki.
"Shizuka", Doumeki answers and Watanuki tells him that when his parents were still alive he was being called 'Kimihiro'. He then continues and tells Doumeki that Kohane told him she hasn't been called by her name for a long time although her mother is still alive. We leave a sad Watanuki and a concerned-looking Doumeki, next scene: Kohane returns home. Her mother is furious of course and asks her where she's been. She calms down a little when Kogane tells her she went to where the cherry tree was (the location for the shooting of the show Kogane is supposed to be featured on). "I would have gone with you if you would've told me", she says, "You're not 'with me', mom. You're 'just there'." Kohane replies.
Just when her mother wants to ask her about the umbrella the phone rings. It's the producers of the show
who want to know if Kohane is going to be at the shooting. Her mother says that "of course she's gonna be there" and the producers obviously seem concerned if she will be able to excorcize the ghost etc. and Kohane's mother says that Kohane will do it and that she's keeping all impure things away from her daughter (even her food is the same as the food monks eat to purify their souls....I can't remember...something along those lines.). Then they start talking about money and Kohane's mother yells that "they promised her twice as much (as what they're saying now)". Meanwhile Kohane, who has been listening to all of this is on her way to her room. We see her pass a room full of expensive-looking clothes, shoes and jewelery. When she reaches her room she hugs Watanuki's dripping wet umbrella (she's too is dripping wet from the rain). End of chapter.
Waaaaaaaaah @_@!!! I'm really looking forward to the next chapter!!! I can't tell if the summary is complete because I don't have the magazine with me right now and my memory is kind of blurry for everything after the 104 scene (obviously my brain had switched into dreamy fangirl mode by that time....-_-;;). Anyway, so does that mean Doumeki and Watanuki are going to call each other by their first names at the end of this arc...?!? And where's Yuuko-san??....I'm starting to miss her when she doesn't appear for a few chapters!!! Ahh.....gotta go!!! My job is starting soon....I hope I'll catch the bus in time XO!!!!!!!!!!
