The chapter starts with Takahiro at Café Alpha, chatting with Alpha over a cup of coffee. The conversation turns from small talk into the story of how Takahiro met the Osprey while searching for clams in Higata. As he was stretching, there was a large splash in front of him, and upon investigation of the scene, he saw the Osprey perched upon a rock near the shore holding a fish. After the Osprey flashed a fang-filled grin Takahiro took off running home, and curled up under his covers awake for the remainder of the night. Alpha is surprised at first, but tells Takahiro what she knows of the Osprey (much of which had been passed down to her from Owner).  
The chapter starts with Alpha asleep in her bed. Once her alarm rings, she begins her wakeup routine by stretching, drinking some water, and then rinsing her mouth with mouthwash. As she passes her attic stairs, she thinks it might be a good way to greet the day by going up to open the attic shutters. As she tries to do so however, she finds that the attic shutters are stuck shut, and she accidentally breaks one of the doors off as she kicks it open.  


The two notice it begin to rain lightly, and Takahiro rushes home on his bike - only to be caught out in a downpour. Taking refuge in a storage shed along the side of the road, Takahiro finds himself cold and alone - until he is comforted in the warm embrace of the Osprey. As he is cradled in her arms, he falls asleep.  
As Alpha repairs her shutters, she hears Ojisan's tractor approaching her café with a trailer full of watermelon. Ojisan explains that he is thankful for her supervision of Takahiro, and offers her watermelon in exchange. Alpha, who loves watermelon, excitedly rushes down, and sticks out her hands to receive one before Ojisan exclaims that the entire trailer is for her. Alpha and Ojisan talk about how bountiful the harvest was this year, and about how Ojisan has been spending the entire day trying to give watermelon away to anyone who might want some.  


Takahiro then awakes in the morning in the arms of someone new - Alpha, who had found him with dry clothes in the storage shed. Takahiro recounts what had happened that night to Alpha, who discovers a long hair belonging to the Osprey on Takahiro's head. The chapter ends with the two recollecting the experience, and Alpha telling Takahiro to thank the Osprey next time he sees her (should that ever happen before he becomes an adult).
Alpha ends up with 12 watermelon as Ojisan drives off with his trailer still full. Unsure of what to do with them, she brings them into the café, and tries to pretty them up for customers by putting bows on them. Just as she finishes, two customers enter and giggle at the watermelons. As Alpha serves them, she tries to get them to take a melon, but the customers point out their truck already full of watermelons just outside the café. To end the chapter, Ojisan is seen sitting in front of his gas station, with a shelf full of watermelons. Sitting at a table, Alpha glances over at her own bow-tied watermelons, and chuckles at herself.

Summary

Rumbling Stripes (Japanese: しましまのごろごろ) is the third chapter of the first volume of Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou. In the Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou Manga Scanlations version of the chapter, it is titled "Rumblings of Thunder." Notably, volume 1, chapter 3 is the first chapter in which customers that might not already know Alpha Hatsuseno visit the café. In this chapter, readers learn that Ojisan grows watermelons, and that Alpha can't handle animal protein (even including animal byproducts such as milk and eggs).

Plot

The chapter starts with Alpha asleep in her bed. Once her alarm rings, she begins her wakeup routine by stretching, drinking some water, and then rinsing her mouth with mouthwash. As she passes her attic stairs, she thinks it might be a good way to greet the day by going up to open the attic shutters. As she tries to do so however, she finds that the attic shutters are stuck shut, and she accidentally breaks one of the doors off as she kicks it open.

As Alpha repairs her shutters, she hears Ojisan's tractor approaching her café with a trailer full of watermelon. Ojisan explains that he is thankful for her supervision of Takahiro, and offers her watermelon in exchange. Alpha, who loves watermelon, excitedly rushes down, and sticks out her hands to receive one before Ojisan exclaims that the entire trailer is for her. Alpha and Ojisan talk about how bountiful the harvest was this year, and about how Ojisan has been spending the entire day trying to give watermelon away to anyone who might want some.

Alpha ends up with 12 watermelon as Ojisan drives off with his trailer still full. Unsure of what to do with them, she brings them into the café, and tries to pretty them up for customers by putting bows on them. Just as she finishes, two customers enter and giggle at the watermelons. As Alpha serves them, she tries to get them to take a melon, but the customers point out their truck already full of watermelons just outside the café. To end the chapter, Ojisan is seen sitting in front of his gas station, with a shelf full of watermelons. Sitting at a table, Alpha glances over at her own bow-tied watermelons, and chuckles at herself.
