xxxHOLiC 173 translation

Wish me luck on my JET interview tomorrow.

[01]
Kohane: ....

Doumeki: You're making it, right?
Food.

Watanuki: Yes...

Himawari: Right.

I said, "Since Watanuki-kun called us,
We'll certainly be able to eat something delicious."

I've been looking forward to it.
---------------------------------
[02]
Himawari: "I wonder what he's making," I said.

Watanuki: I thought I'd...
Make rice balls.

FX: Squeeze

Kohane: Let's make them

Together.
---------------------------------
[03]
Watanuki: Yeah,

I'll make them
With everyone.
---------------------------------
[04]
Yuuko: So

She just left like that?

Watanuki: ...Yes.

It's because I selfishly

Said some impertinent things.

Yuuko: ...People cannot even feel nothingness inside themselves.
---------------------------------
[05]
Yuuko: Not anger,
Not sadness,

Not even affection.

So if that person had had a response to what you said, Watanuki,

It would not have been irrelevant.
---------------------------------
[06]
Watanuki: But even so,
...It might not have been something she wanted to hear.

Yuuko: But even so,
...You thought you wanted her to hear it, didn't you?

Watanuki: ...Yes.
---------------------------------
[07]
Yuuko: Since, to that person, it was necessary
That she entered this shop,

She was able to meet you, Watanuki.

Watanuki: But this shop is yours, Yuuko-san...

Yuuko: You understand well
What that person has, don't you?

Watanuki: So because of that
You gave the matter of that person to me, Yuuko-san...
---------------------------------
[08]
Yuuko: People, you see,

When they must meet someone,
They meet the person they must meet.

Because everything

Watanuki: ...is inevitable.
---------------------------------
[09]
Yuuko: And
...parting is the same again.

FX: Touch

Yuuko: What?

Watanuki: No, um
Somehow, Yuuko-san, you...
---------------------------------
[10]
Yuuko: Do you like this place, Watanuki?

Watanuki: ...Yes.
---------------------------------
[11]
Yuuko: This place was built for the sake of the day that must come,

FX: Rustle

But...

If it becomes one of the reasons for you to stay,

FX: Emotions

...I'm glad.
---------------------------------
[12]
WatanukI: I've seen...
That kimono...
Before.

Though you've never worn those same clothes, Yuuko-san,
Before, certainly...
That...in a dream...

FX: Rustle

Yuuko: Indeed, the dream will soon end.
                                                  
It's only when I started translating the sound effects that I noticed how quiet this manga is.
