During winter break, Mairu went to Fukuoka where she met with her parents and grandmother after a long time. Then, she spent Christmas and Christmas Eve alone since her brother went on a date without telling her. On New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, her brother would order her to make New Year’s foods for him. On the first day of the year, everything is the same, with only Tenyuu sending her a New Year greeting email. She greets him back. Ever since that day [when they sleep together in one bed], there was not much contact between them because right now, even if she sees him, she doesn’t have the confidence that she can look at him like she usually did. She wonders why she cried on that day when she learned that Tenyuu already has someone he likes, and does that mean that she.. She pukes the chocolate[?] she’s drinking and thinks that it is impossible for it wasn’t easy for her to have a friend so ‘liking’/loving a friend is impossible. Then, there is this long haired girl complaining over her live-in partner[?] who is like a Chihuahua – annoying but, makes her feel satisfied since he’s quite nice to her. Meanwhile, at the studio, Tenyuu is lost in thought that Maehara, his boss, reprimands him for not repairing the cosmetics and skipping work before. Tenyuu protests that he has something to do but Maehara tells him to quit lying for he just doesn’t want to see Toriya Sasa. Tenyuu admits it. Maehara smacks him for running from work because of the past. Tenyuu apologizes. Maehara informs him he’s not allowed to run away since the next job will be with Sasa. After a pause, Tenyuu says okay. Then, a woman calls out to Maehara. In the car, Maehara is worried about Tenyuu since he became like that ever since he saw Sasa’s name on the schedule board. He wonders what Sasa did to Tenyuu. Even if he seems mature at work, he is still a 17 years old. He wonders what thing can help prop him up on that day so that the work would go smoothly. Then, he realizes something. He calls up Mairu and asks if she is free on the day after tomorrow to do some errands during the photo shoot. Mairu is nervous for she’ll see Tenyuu. Maehara says that lately, Tenyuu isn’t in a good mood and he hopes that with a friend on the set, he would be in high spirits. Realizing that she didn’t know this [/he was depressed], Mairu agrees to go for it can help Tenyuu out because they are friends. Mairu arrives and goes to the set. She feels uneasy upon seeing the dazzling models so she quickly hides in a storage room. She felt quite comfortable there but then, she must go to work. Someone calls out if there’s someone there. Realizing the someone is inside, Mairu apologizes for just coming in because the world outside the room is quite dazzling, but she’ll quickly go out. The guy laughs and agrees that this place is comparatively peaceful. Mairu is shock for the guy is beautiful and looks very handsome. She asks him if he’s a model. The guy laughs and asks how can that be, but then, he’s quite happy that she said that, thanks.
