"Let's have some time alone and get to know ourselves better." Asu suggested after being informed about the study abroad plan from Kazuki.

'I parted off from you and turned around;

Love is an emotion- one that is unexplainable and inexpressible but affected our minds uncontrollably and changed our lives constantly. Happiness is a redemption- one that is exchangeable after suffocating from hundreds of sorrows and experiencing thousands of pains.

New Year's Eve was the liveliest day in Japan. The street was swarmed by crowds of people. Groups of families, friends, and lovers filled every corner of the town- and one of the hundred groups was the arrogant grey-haired man and the outspoken brunette- and their mutual friends.
