We're used to a turbulent everyday life, where strife and conflict never come to an end.

But Airi's different. She's not fond of conflict and just loves sharing peaceful moments over sweets with friends. That gentleness is what makes her special to us.

You could say it's the most precious thing ever, that we all want to protect.

I see.

For me, that kind of "gentleness" feels almost unreal, so it's a little difficult to understand...

But the fact that Kyouyama Kazusa has come to see me as a "friend" nowadays--

--might be thanks to all of you......
