So Hana to Yume 12/5 Edition came out and so did Skip Beat c149. After the cliffhanger from chapter 148, one can say that 149 was satisfying enough for fans who know of the delicate nature of Ren & Kyoko's relationship. Yes, after 149 chapters, the two have not exactly hit it off yet. We only see Ren suffering in silence -- not really, but he kinda is -- from his feelings towards Kyoko and his mad jealousy towards any of the men who approach her, and Kyoko trying to write off all the fluttering towards Ren as her reacting to his godlike acting abilities. Then at the end of chapter 148, Ren reaches in for a kiss and of course it just ends there.
During c148, Kyoko was plagued by the haunting memories of Sho robbing her of her first kiss back in chapter 146-147 or so. She made a special wine jelly for Ren and did not give him any chocolates for Valentine's Day since he did not really like sweets. When he saw how much consideration and care she went through to make the jelly for him, he was touched and then hover over her in a pretty comprising position. Then in the opening of chapter 149, we see Kyoko relive the bitter memories of past up to the point where Ren is leaning in for a kiss. Of course, knowing how Nakamura-sensei is a tease, he only kisses her cheek (yeah, he comes in on her right side and kisses her left cheek so she is VERY aware of what's going on). All the thoughts of Sho she had from before are completely banished as they are replaced by Ren instead. She freezes up and has a hard time concentrating on acting that day since her mind is full of Ren and her downright confusion. Then of course, the chapter ends and we have to wait until 12/18 for a new chapter =_= *sigh*
Waiting for Skip Beat is such a pain at times T__T, but I just love this series to pieces. I'm all for Ren x Kyoko. I want to see it go somewhere T__T but their "romance" just moves so slow =_=; Oh well...
