Episode Description:
On the day of the sports festival, Koyuki sees Minato talking to Momoka and tries to not overthink their interactions. Koyuki bonds with her friends while also observing Momoka ingratiate herself to them. She continues to feel flustered around Minato, which Yota notices. After Momoka requests she take a picture of her and Minato together, Koyuki unconsciously grows jealous of Momoka's advances. Koyuki and Minato hesitate on taking photos with each other, so Yota arranges it. Koyuki discloses to Yota on her burgeoning feelings for Minato, allowing them to connect on their difficulty approaching their crushes and desire to not jeopardize their friendships. Minato later invites Koyuki and Tsukiko to the cheer squad's wrap party, which the girls accept. Meanwhile, Miki and Yota conduct cleanup duty for the sports festival. Yota immediately shields Miki from a falling box and Miki sees Yota acting bashful. Although she initially assumes Yota is joking, Miki gradually realizes that he harbors genuine feelings for her. Miki runs away in shock and fears her friendship with Yota was one-sided.
