Kazuhiko has a coffee with a clearly depressed Chika.
She may be fine with them dating, but seeing them out in the wild is another issue.
This eventually backfires, as expected, as Chika collapses and ends up in Nurse Konukis tender care.

Kazuhiko, Koto, and Shin sit by her bed, concerned.
Konuki then takes Chika home and asks Kazuhiko to stay beside her.
Theyre there to support their friends, ChikaandKazuhiko, and double-check the festival exhibit is a big success.

Me essentially being an Anti-Grinch, I was very moved by all the camaraderie and fellowship on display.
These are all such good kids!
She speaks from the heart about how much she understands why Chika worked herself to the bone.

While she should be commended for tending to Chika, Konukireallyshould be reprimanded or fired.
