Parfait Tic 10 Fuuko is sitting in her room, she's still upset because of the gloves. Ichi comes up and Fuuko is not very polite to him at the beginning. Then Fuuko plays it cool and acts and says everything is all right and Ichi says if everything is all right, then there's no need for Fuuko to run away. They keep fighting a little and Fuuko asks what's so special about Iori. Ichi says they went through important things together (sorry, son't know how to put this in English). Fuuko gasps and Ichi has a thoughtful look on his face, he says that Iori is actually a very weak person. Upstairs, Daiya is sitting inside the apartment, leaning against the door, he has a strange look on his face. On the next day, the Tennis team has a little party and Daiya notices how down Fuuko still is. He wants to cheer her up, but some girls drag him away. Akio-sempai realizes this and helps Daiya and Fuuko to get time together. They go up to some kind of hill, it's already dark and they have the most beautiful view of the town. Fuuko is taken away and Daiya tells her how much he likes that places and that when he was younger, he always came here, when Fuuko is suddenly breaking down crying. He tells her to cheer up and comforts her. Fuuko thinks even though the night view is so pretty, she can't help but cry that much. On the next day she is still depressed and meets Ichi at the lockers. They joke around about her birthday, but Fuuko still can't talk normally to Ichi. She tells Ichi that she climbed up that hill last night and Ichi wants to know more about that. Fuuko says she was there with Daiya and the view was incredibly beautiful. Ichi stares at her and Fuuko leaves when her friends come up, still acting as if everything's all right. Her two friends give her a tshirt as birthday present and Fuuko is very happy about that. She asks them if they want to go to Karaoke after school, but they apalogize and say they have things to do. Then Fuuko asks Akio-sempai ,but she has a date with a guy. Fuuko goes home pretty depressed and wonders what Ichi is doing. She imagines a pretty stupid love-love birthday with Ichi and gets a nose bleeding ^^; Later she meets with Daiya and they stop in front of a door. When Daiya opens the dorr, Fuuko is really surprised, her friends came to party with her. And where is Ichi, you'll ask… well, 30 minutes before, Daiya asked Ichi to come to the party, but Ichi didn't really make a move. Daiya left the room and Ichi suddenly got a call. When Daiya met up with Fuuko and walked on the streets, he saw Iori in her car, crying and making a call and distracted Fuuko so she couldn't see Iori. He told her that Ichi can't come to the party, 'cause he has to work. While Fuuko is thinking this and enjoying her party, a crying Iori runs to Ichi and hugs him. At night, Fuuko thinks this was great and everything, but the person she wanted to celebrate with the most, was not there. Next we see Ichi sitting at home, looking at the fixed mug (from volume 1, remember, it was the one that Fuuko broke, but Ichi said it was all right, 'cause the mug wasn't important to him anyway) with a thoughtful expression on his face. He hears Fuuko sneezing downstairs and goes on the balcony to look, but she's not there. Daiya comes up and asks Ichi what he was doing before going to work and he asks what Daiya means. Daiya feels like shouting at him, but keeps silent. Ichi says he just went to work. On the next day at school, to friends of Ichi ask him at class something about his work and taking a break (can't really translate that, sorryyyy) and Fuuko overhears it. She says she heard Ichi had to work last night and the boys said that's not true. Ichi doesn't even face Fuuko. She goes to Daiya and asks if Ichi met up with Iori and Daiya doesn't say anything. Fuuko says she can't explain how thankful she is for the party, but being betrayed like this hurts badly. She is really in pain and thinks she's full of hate and hates herself. Fuuko skipps classes and Ichi looks for her. He finds her behind the building witting there, crying and ignoring him. He says he is sorry, covers her with his jacket and leaves. Later Fuuko hears some girls talking about a really cute girl, when Daiya comes up. They see Iori and she is really nice to Fuuko and asks her how her party was. She then asks her if she likes Ichi and Fuuko freaks out. Iori comments on how cute Fuuko is like that and says she'll support her. However, when Ichi comes she runs to him and hugs him and so on (that bitch -_-) and kind of asks him if he is free today. Iori smiles and everything and Daiya is looking at her with a dark expression. He says to Iori she hasn't changed at all. Iori takes it as a joke, but Daiya says he'll take back what he said, he meant Iori still doesn't know when it's time to take a step back. (erm, is this really what he means here. I'm not sure ^^;;;). Fuuko wants to stops Daiya, but before that, Ichi tells Daiya to stop. Fuuko has this expression on her face as if she's about to give up (can't really describe her expression, she's really hurt) and remembers what Ichi said about Iori being a weak person in reality. Daiya and Ichi start to take up a fight, but then Daiya suddenly decides to leave with Fuuko and drags her away. Iori is back to her genki self and asks Ichi to leave with her and he says okay. While Fuuko is leaving with Daiya, she looks back and sees Ichi with his hand on Iori's back, going away together. She thinks her face feels strange, she forgot how it is to smile. On the next day, Fuuko meets Ichi and walks with him. She remembers a conversation with her sister where she told her that she has to make the person she loves understand about her. Fuuko offers Ichi that she's having a really hard time. Then she asks Ichi if Iori is really that special and Ichi says he just can't reject her. Fuuko loves about this (crazily) and leaves, but Ichi stops her. Fuuko refuses to be touched by him and screams she doesn't need help. She runs away. At school everybody knows about the cute girl who came for Daiya and Ichi and everybody wants to know who this girl is. Ichi is looking at Fuuko and she at him, but then she turns away. Later after the Tennis practise, Daiya tells Fuuko that Koto is coming and Fuuko says she wants to see her too. Koto is not too happy to see them. She asks them what's been going on, because she heard that Iori have been coming over to their place a lot lately. Fuuko smiles and Koto screams and says she thinks Fuuko is really strange. Daiya asks Koto if she really knows how Fuuko is feeling right now and Koto answer she just doesn't understand why Fuuko is smiling like that. Fuuko looks a little depressed. *skipping some pages* On their way home Fuuko is starting to act cool again and fakes another smile. Daiya touches her face and says that smiling like this with all her might isn't good. As they are standing around like this, with Daiya's hand on her cheek, Ichi comes around and asks them what they are doing. Fuuko can't believe that ichi just said that and tells him to care about his own things and he's himself has been getting along well with Iori lately too. She screams that Ichi isn't the most important person in this world and afterwards she's really surprised about her reaction. Daiya cheers on her and says it's good to react like that since she's always been calm about it. Now I'm kinda confused about this scene, since I don't really get who is talking, and what they are up to, but it's about Ichi loving Fuuko and staying quiet about that and they get into a huge fight. A neighbour sees them and asks her husband to do something about them, so both boys grab Fuuko's arm and run away with her. As they run, Fuuko pushes Ichi's hand away. When they stop, for the first time Fuuko doesn't fake a smile, she's crying and admits how hard everything is for her. She's running away, leaving the two boys alone. On the next day, Fuuko spends the day with her two friends and they really have fun. They sleep in a room and at night her friends tell her that Daiya called and was concerned about her and they think that's great. Fuuko thinks that the one who is in her heart still is Ichi, she is crying and her friends are holding her hands. On the next day at school Fuuko (with the greatest hairstyle) gathers her courage and tells Ichi she wants to talk to him. She asks Ichi if it would be possible that he doesn't see Iori again. He is staring at her and realizes how serious she is and Fuuko thinks she won't be running away this time. Fuuko accidentally disturbs a guy who is passing by and he starts talking bad. Fuuko wants to defend herself but suddenly Ichi does that for her. He takes her hand and drags her away, this time Fuuko doesn't push his hand away. They continue talking and Ichi asks if she was serious and she says she was. He says he understands and if that's what she wants, he'll do it. Fuuko is surprised and of course happy, Ichi is looking away. Later Fuuko hears some girls talking about Ichi being with a girl and Fuuko runs to him. Of course it's Iori and she asks him if he wants to go somewhere with her but he says he can't. Iori doesn't take this very seriously and continues talking, when Fuuko comes up with a very worried face. Iori says she should come with them. They are in Iori's car and she keeps talking. Ichi suddenly says he can't come with her. Iori says she understands and lets them out. They climb up a hill and Fuuko starts talking but Ichi doesn't react. She grabs his jacket, but stumbles and both fall down the hill. They are lying in the grass and Fuuko realizes it's strange between them. She thinks if she's making the one she loves putting up such a strange expression on his face, than what are the feelings they really have for each other. What is Sanae thinking about Parfait Tic vol 10? This summary is what you get if Sanae doesn't have a dictionary with her ^^; Sorry, I don't really know how to put the last sentence, hope you get what I mean here *coughs* Okay vol 10… Seriously, Daiya is great in this volume. And he is great in the following chapters too. But I can't bring myself to accept him as her boyfriend and I still think Ichi won't be the one, so now I really hope Fuuko will end up without Ichi nor Daiya. Hey it would be something new ;) I already said it, I hate the plot of PT at the moment. Many will think it "I don't know what she's thinking, it's not that depressing right now", but wait for more chapters. Like when Fuuko is crying even more over Ichi and "stopping" their relationship or when Daiya confesses his love to Fuuko and confusing her even more. Yes, this was a spoiler XD.
