    Um, small detail, but i think “the jig’s up” would be the correct idiom
    “the Gig’s up” sounds like the end of a concert or party
    while “the jig’s up” would be appropriate for the revelation of a secret or conspiracy

      Huh. I’ve always seen/heard both equally, but it looks like jig is the original version, so I guess I’ll change it.

      Thanks!

    Now everyone is aware of Haruna’s secret. But somehow the adults still refuse to believe it, all of them just assume Haruna is overwheight! And Haruna and friends doesn’t seem to realise how serious it is and someday Haruna will go into labor and give birth. Except for Mika, but she is as usual more concerned about herself in the first place; e.g. What will her mother thing of HER when she finds out Haruna is pregnant.
    Great job though, you scanlations I am eager to read the next chapters.

      Yeah, I though it was interesting that not a single one of the parents took it seriously.

      I’m hoping to have the next chapter up next week. :)
