And, it is 2:30am of Christmas day. Shouta is recalling everything that has happened – Sawako crying and later on, kissing him. Because of that, Shouta couldn’t sleep. His phone rings and he thinks that it is Sawako. He sits up and answers it. It is a guy’s voice so Shouta hangs up. The phone rings again and he answers. It is Kent who tells Shouta that he’s mean for suddenly hanging up on him. Shouta unconsciously hanged up again. Kent calls again to say that he’s really mean but Shouta apologizes to him. Kent says that Shouta is really persistent [/do his way regardless of what others say]. Shouta tells him that no one calls someone in the middle of the night at 230am. Letting it slide since Kent is the type who wants to pour out his thoughts to someone, Shouta asks him what’s up. Kent happily informs him that he is now going steady with Ayane. Shouta recalls what had happened earlier and now, he realized what’s going on. Kent asks if he didn’t hear it from Sawako. He says no. Kent laments over his gift, red roses bouquet, which he thinks suits Ayane but it is ruined after being stepped on. Soon, Kent kept on talking about his nervous feelings, about the gift and what happened with Mogi, that Shouta thinks that Kent will talk for a long time. Shouta threatens to hang up on him. Then, they somewhat talk about jealousy[?] that Kent asks if he is meddlesome. Shouta says yes. He then tells Kent to do a lot of fun stuff and cherish Ayane. Kent says yes. Kent starts saying to ask about Shouta then claims that he isn’t worried about them. He talks about Shouta coming to consult him and he said that there’s totally no problem with Shouta and Sawako. Shouta tells him that he didn’t consult him. And Kent kept on talking to poor sleepy Shouta until 430am about Ayane. =P At 730am, Sawako wakes up and is happy to see her gloves given by Shouta because it proves that everything wasn’t a dream. She exchanges gifts with her parents. And, her father tearfully has to go to work but they’ll start the party when he gets back home. The door bell rings and Sawako’s friends come to visit. They go to Sawako’s room to chat over what happened yesterday. Sitting on the table, Sawako says that she wants to hear what happened between the two. There is a long silence that Chizuru screams that she can’t bear with that. It turns out that they are waiting for Chizuru to start first. Chizuru evades it by telling Sawako to start first. Sawako says that even if she cried, is uneasy and in pain, but the uneasiness is already gone. Ayane asks if they talked. Sawako says yes and perhaps for the first time, it feels that they are ‘seriously going steady’. Her friends are happy for her. To their surprise, Chizuru starts crying out loud for she didn’t know there was uneasiness because she thought things are going smoothly between Sawako and Shouta. Then, she remembers that something seems to be bothering Shouta. She starts to ask if Shouta has been two-timing so Sawako immediately corrects her by saying that he wasn’t. Chizuru says that it seems that she was mistaken. She asks if Ayane knows about it. Ayane says yes, though it is a coincidence.
