| On the day Junna was separated by his real family, they were at an excavation site. Junna's father had showed him a dial he found and told him that the dial can grant a person's one strongest desire.

In the present, Senna finds Junna at the park and reveals that when she and Junna were conceived, she died, but existed as a soul. Junna has always felt her presence, so that was why he knew of her existence. Tomo explains that since Junna and Senna's wish was granted, the dial has to take a compensation to create the world, which was the death of his parents and Haruhi living in Junna's dreams. Surprisingly, Haruhi was not supposed to exist in this new world, but because Junna had abandoned her in his dream world, she came searching for him, becoming his childhood friend in this world. Tomo informs Junna that because Haruhi and Senna cannot co-exist in the same plane, the balance between the worlds are starting to collapse, explaining the fog that has emerged in the city.

He is angry that his selfish wish with Senna caused his parents to die and lashes out at her for her indifferent attitude. Unmasking herself in tears, Senna says that she knew the truth from the beginning and had hidden it for so long because she didn't want Junna to be in pain. Junna expresses his desire to be with Senna together, but he wants Haruhi and his parents to be exist as his family as well. He realizes that perhaps the dial can grant his wish and goes to ask it, only to no avail. Meanwhile, Senna walks outside, where she meets Haruhi, and the two sisters walk off together. |||

| Junna recalls that there is something more to than asking the dial one wish and forces himself to remember how it granted his wish before.

He finds Haruhi and Senna in the park and instructs them to wish with him on the dial. In the end, Haruhi stayed as Junna's childhood friend while Senna turned out to be his future little sister. |||
