Episode 8: Plum Gathering in Rainy Day
1. I didn’t know you grew plums for your special plum pickles here in your own garden.
2. By the way, I’m sorry to have asked you do this on your day off.
3. No, don’t worry about it.
In fact, I’ve been looking forward to do this.
Page 129
1. Tama is not having any fun.
2. Don’t you dare say any complaints.
(SFX: uni uni)
- I hate plum pickles.
3. I’ll have you work instead of your rent!
- Boo Boo
4. It’s getting sunny a little.
5. Then, let’s reap them now.
Page 130
1. Yellow ones are for making plum pickles; so, put those in this basket.
2. Ah.
How about this split one?
3. Wit those, Ruka will be making a jam.
4. Heh~
I see.
5. Tama, try shaking the branches.
6. I~ye~su **NOTE: it’s a crooked way of say “yes” because she’s unhappy with helping**
7. Heheh. Nice catch!
8. Nori, you should step back from there.
Page 131
(SFX: pokon : plum hit her head)
1. Ouch.
Blue ones are quite hard.
(SFX: pokon : another plum hit her head again.)
2. Awww.
3. Blue ones will be used for making Ume Liqueur.
4. Say,
(SFX: potori : sound of caterpillar landing on her nose)

(SFX: bahsah bahsah : shaking branches)

6. Tama, save the rest for birds to eat.
Page 132
1. Are you ok?
- I’m sorry for racketing.
2. I didn’t know this well was still usable.
3. Yea…long time ago, there used to be a outbuilding here.
4. This well is a vestige from that time.
Page 133
1. From the front of the plum tree to about here—
2. Back then, toilet, bathroom, and even the kitchen were all at the outbuilding.
3. You probably don’t know such old bathtub as Goemon bathtub.
**NOTE: I believe Goemon is the name of a man who was tortured to death in a boiling pot. Goemon bath is just like that : a metal bathtub on top of fire with water and a person in it getting heated altogether.
Page 134
1. It was when this mansion
2. Used to be more lively.
- Huh?
(SFX: goshi goshi : rubbing eyes with back of hands)

Let’s finish doing this before that.
Page 135

about what you’re saying earlier.
2. Um?
(SFX: ba- ba- ba- : racketing)
3. Was the outbuilding still here…
- what’s that idiot doing there?
4. …..
5. when my dad used to live here?
6. …heh?
Page 136
1. N, No.
I think it was a few decade earlier than that when the outbuilding was here.
2. I see~
at the most it was 20 years ago when my dad was staying here, wasn’t it?
3. Ye,
yea.
4. But, I think he remembers about the plum tree, though.
5. …Did your father
6. say anything about it?
7. Nope.
8. My dad is just crazy about plum pickles.
- He eats a lot too.
Page 137
1. In that case, when this year’s plums become fermented,
2. Why don’t you send him some?
3. Eh…can I?
4. Sure, thanks to you, I was able to collect a lot of plums this year.
5. WA-i
Thank you, Ms. Yako!
6. H, hey
you’re being over joyed!
Page 138
- Don’t lick it, I said.
1. Now that I think about it,
when dad told me about this mansion,
2. didn’t he say there was someone whom he was indebted to?
(SFX: operating pump)
3. …but,
I guess there’s no way Ms. Yako would know such person, would you?
- You must’ve been an infant back then.
(SFX: operating pump)
4. O, of course not
- Hahaha
5. …

5. …….
6. Umm. I wonder why it doesn’t go well.
Page 114
(Ahahahaha : sound of laughing)
1. Mr. Uomasa stayed even 5 minutes long, today.
2. Why are you saying such things as 3 minutes or 5 minutes?
This isn’t some kind of noodle shop where people eat while standing.
(…haa : sound of sighing)
3. I feel like customer is the one who all tensed up.
4. Let’s take a coffee for a break.
5. Eh~. “Another” break?
- It’s ok. It’s ok.
Page 115
1. It’s been a week since Nori came here.
2. Whenever you had free time, you’ve been cleaning here and there of the kitchen.

4. Thanks to that, I ran out of tasks to ask you to do.
Page 116
1. It’s ok to take it easy.
2. Just waiting like this is a part of the job when you work at a café.
3. Understood! I’ll do my best.
- I’m saying not to get tensed up like that.
4. If it’s boring, why don’t you bring a book to read?
5. Oh, no. That’s not what I meant.
6. Really? It’s very idle in here, isn’t it?
(sound of laughing: ahahaha)
7. ……
8. I guess.
Page 117
1. Well, there are more cats coming to this shop than people.
2. Hahaha
(kari kari : sound of scratching window)
3. Excuse me~
4. I know it’s weird for me to say this, but,
if it’s like this all the time, wouldn’t you not need a helper?
5. Because, it’s so boring by myself!
- what did she just say?
Page 118
1. The, the reason why I was hired was?
2. I’ve been wanting someone to talk with for so long~
3. …in other words, my job is to “attend you.”
4. There was another reason, but that’s ok.
5. …..?
6. By the way, Nori.
Who do you think will come this time, a cat or a person?
- I can’t say it’ll be a cat, can I?

7. Well, I think it’s going to be a person.
Page 119
1. Let’s play a bet; I’m for a cat, you for a person. Ok?
2. What happens when won?
3. A cup of coffee for free!
4. Just how many cups have we drunk since morning?
5. Then, penalty game!!

2. Yes, It is idle.
(sound of idling : bo~)
3. Ms. Ruka, about the name of this shop, what does “Ne.u.Ne.u”mean…?
4. “When it cries in such a cute way ‘Ne.u.Ne.u’ I can’t help but to stroke its hair and smile.”
- from the Tales of Genji
Page 121
1. SO, it’s “Meow Meow,” I guess.
2. Oh, it’s the sound of cat’s crying in ancient Japanese language.
3. Originally,
it used to be “let’s sleep, let’s sleep” **NOTE: this would be “Neyou Neyou” in Japanese, resembling “Ne.u.Ne.u” in sound.
according to etymological study, that is.
4. Wait…
We’re still working!
5. There’s nothing to do. How about you take a nap, too?
(pata pata: sound of waving hand up and down)
- Oh, my-
6. If a customer comes it,
- she’s really sleeping.
7. What are we going to do?
Page 122

6. Hi…
I was passing nearby.

Page 124
1. Ms. Ruka, I won.
2. Nya?
3. You are too shy to admit it, aren’t you?
you came here to see how Nori is doing~.
4. Funh (sound of cold laughing)
I just “happened” to pass nearby, that’s all!
- Boo~ Boo~
- But you two look intimate.
5. Oh, well,
(Gui Gui : sound of pushing her on the back)
6. In any case, one cup of coffee is a treat from Ms. Ruka,
so, please take a sit~
7. I never said I was going to treat Yako.
8. But, I can’t drink anymore than this.
9. ?
10. I didn’t say I was going to drink, either.
