S1E9 My Answer

On Saturday, Kai and Ichika rendezvous at the station, where she plans to share her answer to his invitation to go out. As fate would have it, Ryo walks by and learns that Ichika's recent unease stems from Kai's proposal. At the same time, Arie asks Ryo to join her for dinner, hoping to express her feelings. During their meal, she raises a concern about the potential challenges Ryo and Ichika might face due to their age difference, and softly places her hand on his as she speaks.
