Previously we saw Ol-san and a few of her friends partying on New Year’s Eve, but she leaves halfway into the evening. On her way to the convenience store, she sniffed her overcoat to find out if it reeked of alcohol, but fortunately, it didn’t. So she was reassured that everything would be fine as the smell didn’t stick and she hadn’t had any alcohol.

She enters the store and buys some stuff. While checking out, Shirasaki and Ol-san make some small talk. She thinks that Shirasaki possesses a pleasant atmosphere and mature demeanor, which may be because he has a little sister to take care of. After the billing, Shirasaki shyly greets her new year and asks her to treat him well, and Ol-san responds likewise.

Later when she arrives home, she gets a call from her father asking her whether she is coming back home for the new year’s holidays. But she apologized and asked if her mother hadn’t said anything to him. At first, he was confused but then wondered whether she had gotten a boyfriend or something while panicking.

She suddenly pictures Shirasaki in her mind but quickly denies it, telling him that she is going to spend time with her cat “Takuan.” But her father quickly caught on telling her that he totally got it sarcastically while laughing and ended the call. Overcome with embarrassment, Ol-san pulled Takuan and buried her head into the pillow.
