Summary
During a night-time trip to a convenience store, Arisa meets a man and finds herself falling for him. Chance later reunites the two, and the stranger, who gives his name as Kureno, treats her to lunch. Both had dwelled on the other in the days between, having been struck the instant they first met. A future together stays closed to them, however, because Kureno belongs to the Sohma family and has pledged to remain at Akito's side always.
