## Summary

Kaori takes Yuuya to go shopping, and Yuuya remarks how so many fancy shops exist near Ousei, to which Kaori tells him that some of the shops here get interviewed as well. Kaori tells Yuuya that she felt like showing him around the area by the school, considering it repaying how he helped her before. He nervously says he couldn't possibly take up any more of her time, so Kaori asks if she can just talk to him. He ultimately accepts, hoping that as long as Kaori is happy, he should be fine being seen with her.

The pair see a crêpe shop and Kaori takes his hand to go in, all the while several people notice the two, with several other girls blushing at seeing Yuuya's beauty and several others recognizing him from his poses with Miu. Yuuya, however, starts to wonder if he doesn't belong in the area at all if he's being stared at so much, and then one girl approaches him asking for a handshake (with several others wanting one too). Yuuya tries to claim that they're mistaking him for someone else, only to notice he's still holding Kaori's hand. He nervously retracts his hand and apologizes, to which an equally blushing Kaori apologizes too. The scene causes the bystanders to remark how cute the two appear, but in Yuuya's mind, he's thinking back to when he was still fat and touched some girl's hands, which disgusted them. Though he feared Kaori would act the same, she tells him it was her first time holding another guy's hand, perplexing him that she wasn't angry. This causes him to remark how kind Kaori truly is.

The two get some crêpes and remark how delicious they are. Kaori offers Yuuya a bite of her own, which makes him think of it as an "indirect kiss." Though a little nervous, he ends up doing so and tells her how good it is. Kaori, however, soon realizes what she has just done, and both of them collapse in embarrassment, both apologizing to each other for showing their embarrassing sides. It ultimately culminates with Yuuya, without thinking, asking Kaori if she would like to try his crêpe in return. Though somewhat surprised, Kaori willingly does so, and tells him that it is just as delicious as his.

Near the end of the day, Yuuya sincerely thanks Kaori for showing him around, and she admits she was flustered the entire time, so she doesn't think she was a very good guide. Yuuya refutes that belief, saying she knows a lot of different shops, but Kaori confesses this was her very first time walking around after school so casually with someone, as usually people act reserved around her because of her background, but Yuuya was a first for her. Yuuya acknowledges that she may have things going on he couldn't possibly understand himself. Yuuya tells her that this was the first time he's ever hung out with a girl and it was fun for him, but Kaori asks if he really hasn't hung out with other friends or a girlfriend before her. Yuuya quickly assures her that he doesn't have a girlfriend, which makes Kaori relieved.

Just as Kaori was about to ask if they could hang out again in the future, Yuuya notices a cart of boxes falling over and he goes to help the person. The man thanks Yuuya as he realizes he was his boss from his previous part-time job. Immediately Yuuya apologizes for the trouble he caused him in the past, but the man doesn't recognize Yuuya due to his transformation. He still thanks him and parts ways, but his inability to tell him apart from his old self causes Yuuya to ask Kaori how she knew it was him when they met again. Kaori answers that though his appearance changed, he still has the kind eyes he had on that day. This makes Yuuya realize that Kaori is the type of person who can look beneath the surface of a person and that she was able to accept the version of him that he himself hated.

Unfortunately, the touching moment between the two is ruined by the arrival of Youta, who claims he was here by chance. He expresses his vitriol towards Yuuya for being picked to attend Ousei and Kaori for her decision to reject him as Yuuya once again asks what he wants. Youta notices that there are bodyguards nearby and says he doesn't really have any business with them and leaves. Unknown to the two, this was all part of Youta and Sora's revenge scheme; Sora was watching her brother from afar and points out the two to the Red Ogres, who were with her, where she tells them to hurt them.

The next day, Kaede approaches Yuuya with a magazine and asks if he's the one posing with Miu in the pictures. Yuuya confirms and everyone gushes out how good he was in the magazine. Yuuya thinks he was too stiff, but the others disagree, saying he looked like a professional. Kaede starts blushing and tells Yuuya that he looks a little too close to Miu for her comfort, to the point that she wonders if they are dating. Yuuya quickly tells her that he isn't, which relieves her. Shingo shows Yuuya that he's also trending on social media, which he didn't know due to not having any electronics, causing him to realize that this was the reason he was being stared at. He starts thinking he's being roasted, but Ryou tells him it isn't, and he's very happy when a friend of his is this outstanding. Ryou's words surprise Yuuya but accepts his three new friends.

Yuuya then sees that several other students are crowded by the windows, and when he looks outside, he becomes horrified to see the Red Ogre gang parked outside.
