Operation: A Friend's Friend is Also a Friend Translation Chapter 11

Chapter 11: I Wanted To Help Out

	Kirara: Where could Hana-san and Clea be......?
	(Transition)
	Saaaaaa－－－－－(Pouring rain)
	Hana: The rain doesn't seem it'll stop.
	Clea: Yeah......
	Hana: To think that we're stuck in a heavy rain, not to mention we're already lost......Though at least there's this tree hollow for us to stay inside......
	Clea: I'm sorry......It was me who got ourselves lost......
	Hana: No, it wasn't your faul......
	(Flash of lightning)
	Clea: Waaah, lightning!?
	Hana: Hieeeh!? I thought we're just gonna wait here until the rain lets up......
	Hana: I hope the lightning won't strike us, I hope the lightning won't strike us.......
	Clea: Y-Yeah.
	(Transition)
	Saaaaaa－－－－－(Pouring rain continues)
	Hana: This is quite the persistent rain.
	Clea: Yeah......
	Hana: But I'm glad you're here with me, Clea-chan. I'd feel helpless if I'm all alone here.
	Clea: Hana-san......
	Clea: Hana-san, I'm sorry.
	Hana: Eh? Like I said, it's not......
	Clea: No, it's not just about that......
	Hana: Eh?
	Clea: I intended to help you out to make more friends, but I wasn't helpful in the slightest......
	Hana: Eh, but why? Wasn't it all thanks to you that I was able to become friends with Cork-san and Polka-san?
	Clea: No. It was your own efforts that made you friends, Hana-san. In the end, I wasn't able to help you out on anything.......
	Hana: Clea-chan.......
	Clea: Not to mention I got us lost, even though I said I'd guide you just earlier today......
	Clea: If it's Cork-chan or Polka you're with now, even in these moments you can still rely on them, but with me......
	Hana: That's not true!
	Clea: Hana-san......
	Hana: I caught a cold myself right after coming over to this world......
	Hana: But back then, it was you and Kirara-san who brought me flowers while visiting me, wasn't it?
	Hana: At that time, I was really, really happy.
	Clea: ............
	Hana: And even after that, it is you who is always by my side, and introduces new friends to me,
	Hana: who started my life here later than everyone else. I'm really grateful for that.
	Clea: ............
	Hana: That's why I've been thinking of giving you flowers as a present, so that I can convey those feelings to you, Clea-chan......
	Clea: Eh, flowers?
	Hana: Yes. Actually, I thought I'd keep this a secret as I pick the flowers, so I could surprise you by the time I hand them over to you.
	Hana: Though even when I wanted to search for those flowers, I still ended up asking for your help, just like now.
	Clea: ............
	Hana: Clea-chan has been helping me out all the time, haven't you.
	Clea: Not......at all, but.......
	Clea: ......if you rely on me that much, I guess I've got to try even harder, don't I.
	Clea: Hana-san, I'm getting out of this hollow for a little while!
	Hana: Eh, eh? Clea-chan?

HanareteCle! (離れてくれ！)
Wait that doesn't fit the scenario, oof.
