Nearly three years have passed since Runa and Ryuto celebrated Ryuto’s birthday under the cherry blossoms. Unfortunately, his current life leaves much to be desired. After almost two years at Houo University, Ryuto has even fewer friends than he had in high school, and he’s not satisfied with his part-time job as a cram school tutor either. But the real problem lies elsewhere... Runa has landed herself a full-time job at a chain clothing store. As if that didn’t keep her busy enough, she has her father’s new children to look after at home. With all these responsibilities, the two almost never get to see each other anymore, which is a source of stress for both of them. What does the future hold for Ryuto and Runa? And how are things working out for their old friends?
