Aunt Natsuhi, who was married to the eldest son and was the de-facto number two in managing this family, sat to my right, ...which meant that she was two steps lower than me in the ranking order.

…伯母さんの胸中を察することは難しかった。
...It was hard to imagine what might be going on inside her heart.

なので俺は、伯母さんに謝るような仕草をしてから着席するのだった。
That's why I made a small apologetic gesture towards her before sitting down.

== Natsuhi ==
「お久しぶりですね、戦人くん。ずいぶん背が伸びましたね。」
"How nice to see you, Battler-kun. You've grown quite tall, haven't you?"

== Battler ==
「え、ぁ、はい！　食ったり食べたり食事したりしてたらいつの間にかこんな身長に。」
"Oh, uh, yep! Six long years of eating well, sampling various cuisines, and deriving sustenance from Mother Earth's bountiful gifts. Hard work, but I pulled through."

== Natsuhi ==
「さすが男の子ね。身長はいくつくらいあるの？」
"Growing just like a boy, I see. How tall are you now?"

== Battler ==
「１８０かな？　つーか伯母さん、そこは、食べてばっかりじゃねぇかーって突っ込んでくださいよ〜ん！」
"I guess about 180 cm? But Aunt Natsuhi, that's where you're supposed to say `Heck, sounds like all you did was eat'!"

== Natsuhi ==
「え？
"Huh?

……あぁ、くす、ごめんなさいね。」
...Oh, giggle, I'm sorry."

== Narrator ==
伯母さんは遅れて笑いに付き合ってくれたが、どこが笑うべきツボか理解できてないようだった。
After a short pause, she did laugh with me, but it seemed she couldn't quite figure out what she was supposed to be laughing at.

この人は夏妃（なつひ）伯母さん。
This woman is Aunt Natsuhi (夏妃).

親兄弟の長男の妻、つまり、うちの親父の兄の奥さんに当たる人だ。
朱志香の母親と言った方がわかりやすいか。
She's the wife of the eldest son of the family, meaning she's my father's older brother's wife.
Is it simpler if I just call her Jessica's mother?

…こう言っちゃ悪いが、嫌いってわけでもないが、特別好きでもない伯母さんだ。
...It feels bad to say it like this, but while I didn't exactly dislike her, I didn't particularly like her either.

あまり子供の輪に入ってこないし、いつも気難しそうな顔をして、親たちと難しい話をしているという印象しかない。
She hardly ever spoke with us kids, and all my memories of her involve her talking to the adults about complicated things, with a scary look on her face.

…実際、あまり言葉を交わしたことがなく、今もどう掴みを取ろうかだいぶ迷ったのだ。
…甲斐なく外してしまったがなー。
...In fact, since we hardly ever exchange words, I spent a long time trying to figure out how I should approach her.
...Though my efforts seem to have ended in failure.

テーブルの上には整然と食器が並べられていたが、まだ食事の配膳は始まっていなかった。
The silverware sat neatly on the table, but the meal itself hadn't been brought in yet.

基本的に、上席者が着席するまでは食事は始まらない。
As a general rule, you couldn't start a meal until the person sitting at the head of the table arrived.

つまり、最上位の祖父さまが来ない限り、いつまでもお昼は始まらない。
前菜すら来ないわけだ。
So, as long as Grandfather didn't come, lunch would be put on hold indefinitely.
Not even the appetizers would arrive.

つまりこの食堂の沈黙は、親たちが空腹を堪えながら祖父さまが来るのはまだかと待つものだったのである。
Simply put, the silence in this room was caused by our parents enduring their hunger while they waited for Grandfather to arrive.

ただ、俺の記憶の中の祖父さまは、こうして会食などがある時には必ず時間通りに現れたものだ。
However, the Grandfather from my memories would always show up on time to meals like this.

…全員が揃ってなお待たせるほど遅刻するなどということはありえない人だったはず。
...He was the kind of person who would never be so late that it kept everyone waiting, especially after the entire group had arrived.

== Battler ==
「遅ぇな、祖父さま。……俺の記憶じゃ、時間に厳格な人だったと思うんだけどな。」
"Grandfather's pretty late. ......As far as I can remember, he was always strict about time."

== Jessica ==
「あー、６年前はそうだったかもなぁ。…最近はそうでもねぇよ。というか、もう自分の世界オンリーって感じで会食にも顔を出さねぇぜ。さすがに今日くらいは足並みを揃えてくれるって思ってたんだけどな。
"Well, that might've been true six years ago, ...but it hasn't been that way lately. In fact, he's off in his own little world so often that he doesn't even show up at family meals. ...Still, I figured he'd at least come down today.

…まー、私ゃ来ない方が気楽で嬉しいけどよー。」
...Then again, I feel a lot more relaxed and happy without him."

== Natsuhi ==
「…朱志香！」
"...Jessica!"

== Narrator ==
母親の夏妃伯母さんに叱られ、朱志香は舌を出しながらそっぽを向く。
When her mother scolded her, Jessica stuck her tongue out and looked away.

……仕方ねぇぜ。
ホストさまがいらっしゃるのを待つとするか。
......No way around it.
Might as well wait until our host arrives.

時計を見ると、もうじき１２時の２０分を指そうとしていた…。
When I glanced at the clock, I saw that it was almost 12:20...
