The Ticking Sound of Love



The one hundred and seventh chapter of To Love-Ru.

Plot
Summer is here and the school kids are wearing their summer uniforms. Lala says that the day is beautiful, but Rito said that it's been autumn and they are still wearing the summer uniform. Lala told him that she had talked to her sisters through transmission, and her sisters were pleased as she did not do for long period. While Rito and Lala are talking and walking to school, Yui watches them from afar, seemingly wondering it out of jealousy.

When she hears Haruna, Risa, and Mio talk about love, as Haruna's sister, Akiho was confessed by two boys, but Akiho rejected them. She also wonders why students always talk about relationships and love.

When leaving school, she meets Yami, who quotes a romantic book, a quote that makes Yui blush and think about Rito. Yami replies that the literature of the Earth is interesting. And Yami asks Yui had ever fallen in love, Yui replied that she was not interested in that and replied Yami why asked about that. Yami answers that love is an important feeling and she is interested to know what it felt like, at that moment the Principal appeared and as always Yami hit him.

She soon runs into Rito, where she learns that his dad is a mangaka, and she is relieved that Lala is not with Rito (which she questions why she feels that way). While walking together with Rito, she does not understand why she is relieved by which Lala is not here. And then, Laka has gone to watch Magical Kyouko.

It starts to rain and Rito takes Yui somewhere dry (which turns out to be the playground inside of an enclosed monkeybar-like circle). After Rito gives her his handkerchief, Yui realizes that she is in love with Rito. Rito hears the principal coming and pins Yui down in a lewd position to keep her out of sight of the principal, but Yui thinks that he is trying to kiss (or possibly have sex with) her. After Rito tells her why he pinned her down, Yui, disappointed, hits him and calls him an idiot and storms off.

Rito ends the chapter by saying that he does not understand Yui. Meanwhile, Momo and Nana finally make it to Earth.
