Right after the first greeting at the new school, Haruto walks straight to Natsumi’s table and makes a shocking confession. He says, "I've loved you for a long time." Just like that, Natsumi's life transforms from a nightmare into a total dream-like situation where she gets to spend her daily school life with her beloved idol.
