The chapter opens with Asahina's reaction to the news of the break-up between her and Tomoyuki. She tells the others that she has been thinking about the situation all day, and that she does not even know what is wrong with her. She asks them to join her in having a drink, but they refuse, saying that they would never want to shut up. She then tells them that she knows that they will never find another girl as good as her, and she tells them to stop making fun of him. She says that she is sorry that he has broken up with her, but that she may not have been ready for it. She reminds them that men think that they are getting laid, and when they say no, men look at them and think that it is their fault. She adds that men are so used to being laid that they do not even bother to think about what is their problem. He tells her that he overheard her saying that she would not accept his apology, and he says that it was because he went shopping with him. He says that they were never really good friends, and it always annoyed him when she would show up at his place every morning to walk to school with him
