"Naho got into a fight with Kakeru on New Year's Eve, and never managed to apologize to him before he passed away. At least, that's what the letter from the future says. However, Naho now believes that she's capable of dealing with whatever may come up, and faces New Year's Eve head-on."

Plot Summary[]
Ten years later, Naho and her friends discuss what would have happened if Kakeru was still alive. Suwa feels the most regret because he knew how both Naho and Kakeru felt about each other. Back ten years ago, a shrine visit is planned for New Year's Eve later during the month. As Naho and Kakeru run off to get taiyaki together, Takako confronts Suwa for declining the shrine visit. Suwa does not want to confess his feelings to Naho, recalling that the future will remain the same regardless of his decisions. On New Year's Eve, Suwa stays home while the others visit the shrine. While getting beverages from the vending machine, Kakeru asks Naho if he can go home to check on his sick grandmother. Naho assures Kakeru that his grandmother is fine, but this erupts into a fight since Kakeru does not want his grandmother to end up like his mother. Kakeru takes his leave thereafter. Having been scolded by Takako, Hagita and Azusa, Suwa meets up with Naho to console her without confessing his feelings to her. As the clock strikes midnight, Kakeru smashes his cellphone on the ground when Naho tries to contact him.
