At school, Yuta notices that there are some sensational rumors circulating about Saki due to her striking appearance. When he tries to talk to her about it, it quickly becomes clear that there is much more to the story than the rumors suggest.

Saki adjusts to her new job over summer vacation. Taichi and Akiko notice that Yuta and Saki keep calling each other by their family names. Saki senses a change in how she feels about Yuta and wonders if she should describe it honestly in her diary.

When Yuta is killing time in the library, Maaya confronts him and asks if he has feelings for Saki. After the parent-teacher meetings, Saki attends the open campus event at a prestigious women's college and is confronted by a particularly nosy professor.
