In this chapter, we learn that iino and akari are back together, and iino tells her that he's worried about her, because she's still in love with the guy. He also tells her about her baby, and how he loves her so much he even bends over backwards to make her happy. She's got a "godlike aura" , he says, and she'll do anything for him. He asks if they should all get together for lunch, and when he says yes, iino confesses that she told akari about it, too, since she and he both knew it was a big deal. She seems surprised, but iino says that she might not be as bad as she thinks she is, and that he might be a good guy, too. He tells her to go for it, since he doesn't think iino is a bad guy after all. He says that lately, he feels like he sees him less and less, and his feelings are still "all over the place" .
