Janu contemplates bothering Mori at the common room, but ultimately decides to skip the confrontation. He encounters Nokana, who is there for an urgent meeting with Mori following their strained history after the Okinawa trip. Janu warns Nokana that Mori may no longer be interested in a friendship, but Nokana insists on speaking with her.
The scene shifts to the library, where Nokana and Mori have a tense, emotional confrontation. Nokana apologizes for her past avoidance and confesses that Mori’s previous romantic feelings for her caused fear and confusion, as she only ever viewed Mori as a sister. Mori, hurt and feeling neglected, retorts by criticizing Nokana’s recent behavior, specifically her growing closeness to Janu. The conflict escalates when Nokana admits to kissing Janu, leading Mori to declare that their friendship is effectively over, as she cannot support a relationship between her best friend and the man she despises. Before parting ways, Mori demands that Nokana promise to tell her if Janu ever wrongs or hurts her. The event concludes with a philosophical narration about the shifting "triangular" dynamics between Janu, Mori, and Nokana, before Janu returns home, ending the day.
