Event Year: 2023

Kyotaro didn’t think his cunning plan for New Year’s all the way through. Anna showed up early, and now his sister is trying to be his wingwoman.

Distance separates Kyotaro and Anna, but their thoughts are of each other. However, their budding relationship faces a threat: Haruya still has his eyes set on Anna.

It’s Japan’s most romantic time of the year, and Kyotaro and Anna are not-on-a-date. Kyotaro is keeping a running tally of all his screw-ups, but Anna is enjoying herself.

Despite all the hints Anna throws at him, and others beginning to notice, Kyotaro refuses to believe that she could actually like him. He is his own worst enemy.
