FFS after the wait we have a good and wholesome chapter...and then that ending.
And it’s the second time that I read something similar, today...wtf, I can’t have nice things.
@SparkShadow We are caught up with the raws. Next chapter will be out in 2-3 months, and will presumably be the last (though that's speculation on my part).
Schuyguy (the translator for this) made a great point that their separation was likely a result of Nika moving in with her father, with the timeskip scene at the end being Kurumi and Nika moving in together.
Yeah, she very likely had to move and is reminiscing about things now while moving back (her things are all boxed up again) in order to be with Kurumi again.
Oh, come on! We couldn't have just one measly chapter of happy?!
My mistrust of this manga is actually why I read this first, before Hana ni Arashi which I confidently expect will be an antidote.
