In this chapter, Mina and her friends discuss their plans to go swimming in the mountains. Mina says that she's not sure if they're really friends just because they did the three-legged race together, but she wants to meet someone. She's glad that they've got some people to hang out with, since she hasn't been wearing a swimsuit in a long time. Mina tells her friend that she doesn't want to act like a friend just because she did the race together. She wants to be friends with someone, not just with herself. She tells Mina to stop acting like friends and to stop giving her the creeps. She says that today she saw a goddess and that she was the most amazing goddess she'd ever seen. She also says that Mina is a terrible swimmer. She works her butt off to lift weights, but is still not strong enough to compete with a hot guy. Mina asks if she can go swimming with her friends, but Mina says she'll have to wait until the end of the school year to do so. Mina wonders if Mina is thinking about her future, and she says that if they stay in this deserted place, Mina will end up "flipping the wrong switch" .
