Its been two weeks since the festival, and things are going great … for Nicole and Sekiya.
Their conversation is polite but comes in fits and starts.
Then the unthinkable happens: Nicole comes to school with eyes raw from crying all night.
All of his concerns could have been discussedwithNicole.
Shes reasonable, other than loving only one person ever!
So what does Nicole do?
She runs to Runas house to give her a hug they both need.
He certainly doesnt deserve her, but that doesnt matter.
She doesnt want her and Ryuuto to break up because of her.
He doesnt know how happy that makes her as she walks away in tears.
Surely he must agree that things arent working.
This is a first for her, but it doesnt make her happy.
She thanks him for dating her, as it made her so happy.
And Ryuuto, like a real man … starts tocry.He cries his manly little eyes out.
He doesnt want to break up.
Not here, not now, notever!
Seeing him cry, Runa starts crying too.
Runa admits she was wrong, and the breakup is off.
The episode title wastechnicallyaccurate, but they were only broken up for about a minute!
It was a minute too long, honestly.
No Truck-kunincident for Ryuuto!
Ryuuto blows off cram school (good man) and spends the rest of the day hand-in-hand with Runa.
Ryuuto assures Runa that she doesnt have to worry about slowing down her feelings.
To this, she wryly tells him to buckle up!
Ryuuto tells her that Maria doesnt hate her at all.
Maria even transferred to make her happy.
The next day at school, the teacher presents Maria with an English award.
The class applauds, but Runa stands up and makes sure everybody knows that theyre twin sisters.
So while poor Nicole got hosed, things end well for Maria, Runa, and Ryuuto.
Well see how far they go now that Runas taken her foot off the brakes.
