But when she wants to talk to her friend Nanami Sugio about it, she realizes that she is also in love with Nishizaki. In order not to hurt her, Yusa names her quiet classmate Kaede Haruta as her new friend. And he also plays along because he still owes Yusa something. After Nanami Nishizaki has successfully confessed her love, Kaede is then also the one with whom Yusa can get rid of her lovesickness.
