She starts to tell him what’s popular, if his girlfriend likes cute types, and how about earrings if she has ear piercing. She asks him what kind of person is his girlfriend, is she cute, beautiful? Blushing Kawasumi nods. This made the saleslady squeal over that. Later on, Ryossuke joins up with Kawasumi and sees him holding a small bag. Ryousuke asks if he’s finished shopping. Kawasumi says yes. Ryousuke asks when he is going to give it to her. He says, March 3rd. Ryousuke asks if they don’t have club activity on that week. Kawasumi calls out to Ryousuke. And, it’s morning. Suiren wakes up and goes out her room to be greeted by her mother a happy birthday. Suiren is now 16 years old. Suiren tells her mother that today, Aya and the others would come for a birthday party. Her mother didn’t reply. Then, she goes to the table where Suiren is and asks if Kawasumi is also coming. Suiren timidly says that he has club activity. Her mother says is that so. She quickly returns to the kitchen. While her mother is carrying the laundry, Suiren tells her mother that she is currently going steady with Kawasumi. This made her mother blush and look delighted. She says, okay but first, temporarily keep this a secret from papa. Suiren nods then starts to eat her breakfast. Her mother looks quite happy. At school, Yuri happily greets Suiren and Aya. Yuri happily glomps Suiren who smiles back at her friends. They study. During a class break, excited Yuri is twirling around the curtain which somewhat puzzles Suiren and Aya. Soon, they are having lunch on the rooftop. Suiren stops eating her melonpan and looks out from the roof to see Kawasumi and Ryousuke jogging below. After Suiren joins her friends again, Yuri asks what Kawasumi is doing and it cannot be helped since he has club activity. She suddenly stands up and pulls Aya that they go buy some strawberry roll for Suiren.
