The chapter begins during the preparations for Sho’s first solo art exhibition, a milestone he’s worked hard to achieve. Hana, however, is tense, her mind drifting back to Takumi’s words: “I wish you’d find someone who doesn’t disappoint you.” Her anxiety peaks when Sho accidentally reveals the exhibit’s theme—a mural painted from Hana’s childhood stories. It’s both touching and terrifying, a mirror to her fears of being too much to handle.
