way home from shopping prompting him to think about what he was doing today he Explains that he was on his way to buy a new game when he spotted someone giving out tissues he also wanted one but as expected the person didn't give him any he then tried various methods to get the tissues before finally deciding that the most efficient way was simply to ask she comments that he went through a lot and inquires what gain he bought as that was the reason he went out he is dumbfounded because he was so happy after getting

the tissues that he went straight home She notices that the pain that is supposed to be on his face is instead directed at the tissues she asks if he can look her way and points her camera at him he asks what she is doing and she replies that she was just checking if her camera would recognize his face but it didn't he notices that he has destroyed the tissues and she apologizes explaining that her hands moved before she could tell him to cheer up he asks if she could at least appear to feel bad For

him she wonders how much closer he needs to be for the camera to recognize him and he doesn't believe it will work he tells her that it didn't work at the range she tried so he doubts any closer distance would help she tells him that if that's what he thinks she will wager that the camera will recognize him she instructs him to face the camera and he asks if she is going going to capture both of them she replies that she needs to confirm to him that it works it's Still not working so she asks

if he could move a little closer she gets too close and finally the camera recognizes him and she wins she contemplates what she should make him do and he is stunned to realize he has to do something she asks if she can have his line ID so she can send him the picture they just took he is confused and she smiles asking if he was expecting something else she then asks if he wants to hang hang out somewhere with her and he is confused She reveals that if he is with her he might get some

tissues and now he understands what she meant they exchange IDs and he asks what she is going to make him do she laughs saying that was the reaction she was expecting from him and she spares him this time he is surprised that she is holding back and he notices that it's going to rain she mumbles that he has already given her more than enough of what she wanted today he asks if she said something and She replies that she didn't at school shirish she wonders why he gets sleepy after lunch break and thinks about what

things Cubo will do to him if he dozes off he looks at her and notices that she is also asleep he doesn't see her sleep in class often so he lets her nap and she wakes up but still looks a little bit out of it she greets him and before he can say anything she falls asleep again causing him to sigh Shiri is dead tired from the longdistance running Whenever he runs with a large crowd his partner often loses sight of him forcing him to shout to regain their attention trying to head for the goal

while constantly seeking attention is exhausting especially since he isn't in a sports club this takes a toll on both his body and soul but he has no choice as he would otherwise go unnoticed standing in the corridor kubu approaches him asking if the boys are done he tries to back away from her surprising her he Quickly explains that he's just too sweaty she smiles and steps closer holding his shirt and sniffing him declaring that it doesn't bother her this makes him freak out feeling weird she clarifies that she just meant it doesn't bother her Shiri

turns his face away thinking how her ability to get so close is insanely bad for his heart suddenly Cubo weighs at him and walks away asking him to stay put as she will be back as she leaves he looks out the Window noticing how she still smells nice and has her hair in a ponytail which makes her look like a totally different person he thinks she's really beautiful and contrasts himself imagining he would still look like a m character no matter what style he tries suddenly someone Taps him on the back making him jump It's

Cubo holding out a packet of wipes saying if he uses them it will solve his problem as he wipes himself down he thinks she is really Nice but notices her staring at him he asks her not to stare too much but she explains she thinks they now smell the same she comes closer and blushes stating that they now have a matching scent then she heads off to change leaving him staring at the wipes Kubo turns back and laughs at him with a blush on her face making him wiggle strangely in the changing room she continues

to blush prompting her classmates to ask why she tells them It's nothing specific when one of her friends asks for a wipe Kubo hesitates eventually saying she won't give her one today which angers her friend since Cubo always shares her friend's reaction leads them to believe the wipes are the reason for cubo's happiness and she doesn't deny it on her way she notices Shu shei outside a bookstore and wonders what he is doing he is trying to to get the door to notice him in open he thinks that it's not working today and notices The

push button which must be embarrassing for him he presses the button but it doesn't open so he sees a couple entering and waits for them to enter so he can get in but he fails she witnesses that he is not giving up and helps him open the door which startles him and he falls back she greets him and he asks how long she has been watching him she inquires if this always happens and he replies that it doesn't because he never has to open the doors at other Stores she tells him to go inside and

asks what he is going to buy he picks up a book and replies that he has been looking forward to the release of the volume today she comments that he must like that manga a lot and thinks it's nice they go to the shelf and she sees that the first volume is not available and gets sad she looks at him and says that she should just borrow it from him she gazes at him with brooming eyes and he reassures her saying it's fine they Go outside and she reminds him to bring the volume with him

tomorrow to school he replies that he is going this way and she responds that her house is also in that direction and questions if he is close by he replies that his home is around 5 minutes away she suggests they go and grab the volume from his house and he is stunned and takes a step back she smiles and reveals that she is only coming over to get the book and he trembles he gives her three volumes and Tells her to ask him if she wants to read the other volumes she thanks him and says

she wasn't expecting his house to be so close to hers she confirms they have school tomorrow and he replies that she is right she asks what time he leaves for school and he replies at 7:30 she comments that it's a bit earlier than her and it's no wonder they don't see each other on their way to school she thanks him for the books and says she will see him at school tomorrow she Leaves thinking of departing earlier tomorrow for school he stands on the pavement when a passing car splashes mud all over his shirt walking

through the crowd he feels deeply ashamed of his appearance but finds solace in his usual invisibility this time he's glad for his ability to go unnoticed suddenly he feels a pinch on his back and hears his name being called it's Cubo she pinches his face laughing noting the disaster of his muddy State she advises him to run Home and take a shower he looks away agreeing with her and thinks that having kugo witness this mess isn't his day Cubo then walks him his house and says goodbye however when she notices he can't open the door

she asks what's wrong he awkwardly explains that the door is locked shocked hubo asks why he doesn't have a key Shere she admits he was just going out to buy some juice and didn't think to bring it he takes out his phone intending to contact his mom But gets no response seeing his predicament Kubo takes him to her home she goes to her room to find some clothes deciding on a sports suit since he has seen it before she hands it to him and when he comes out wearing it she compliments him saying he looks

good she then tells him to be careful on his way back as Sher she walks down the street he feels a wave of embarrassment wash over him he thinks that anyone would feel self-conscious after going through Such an ordeal Shiri thinks he has less presence than the average person for example the teacher often forgets to collect his paper as he sits at his desk a Boy comes over asking if he is present today because the teacher is calling him but doesn't notice him even when shuishi tries to make himself seen he feels invisible he deals

with this every day suddenly he feels a pat on his shoulder and turns around to see Cubo she tells him the teacher is calling him out of All the people Cubo is the one who always notices him she then asks what he did to which he replies that he did nothing and will be right back when he returns Kubo asks why the teacher called him he explains that the Sensei forgot to give in his notebook Kubo looks at him with her sparkling eyes asking him to hang out someday she realizes he has an empty schedule

and is free every day so she asks if he is free on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. in 2 weeks he agrees but then Realizes it's Christmas that day on Saturday shishi arrives at the subway station half an hour early feeling nervous he knows a lot of people don't notice him and avoiding them is a lot of work he sits on a bench thinking to take a rest suddenly a couple approaches the bench and without noticing him sits on it causing him to suffocate he stands up cursing Christmas and goes back to the station looking at

his phone with 10 minutes left he sees Cubo she smiles and Asks if she needs to apologize for being late shiray she refuses saying he just got there noticing his cold hands hubo asks to see them she touches them feeling they are freezing so he must have been waiting a long time this time he can't lie and tells her he has been waiting for 20 minutes hubo then takes out a bag saying she should have come earlier instead of picking out a present he takes it confused and asks what it is she replies that it's

happen in the Kingdom he could have just bought it at a convenience store and it has nothing to do with the swimsuit model on the cover he won't feel ashamed if people know he is buying it he spots the book but the place is crowded the people around him don't notice him so he waits they just need to move a bit and he can get it easily when they leave he finally grabs it but sees he didn't put it back properly he realizes it's an adult Magazine hurries to put it back and rationalizes that no

one knows him so there's no problem with him seeing it he opens it to take a pie and thinks that the lady on the cover looks like Kubo a worker approaches him and tells him it's too early for him to see these kinds of things he quickly hides it and she informs him it's too late now he explains that someone else put it there and he wanted to put it back and that he is only there to get a copy of young Jump he insists he isn't lying and even if he had an ulterior motive

to look inside he isn't lying she understands and knows that he only wanted to put it back but that Curiosity got the best of him he admits she is right she teases him on purpose and he realizes that she talked to him the only one who could spot him like this is kubosan he sees her name tag and cannot believe it she gives him the book and he leaves akina's cooworker asks if her sister is a first Year at her keah high and she confirms it the girl gives her a student ID to return to

her sister akina goes home and greets Cubo handing her the ID she recognizes that it belongs to Shiri akina confirms that she knows him and mentions that he was looking at an adult magazine Cubo is stunned while Aina leaves the room at his home Shiri thinks that he never got a chance to look inside the magazine Shiri is sitting at his desk feeling dejected about his lack Of presence he knows people often need five tries to noticed him instead of the usual two and Cubo is the only person who can spot him immediately suddenly a

girl approaches Cubo asking for shi's whereabouts pleading for Cubo to help her find him as she needs to speak with him urgently Kubo apologizes saying she hasn't seen him today Shiri sitting quietly at his desk is shocked he was certain Cubo had already noticed him as he could feel her Gaze on him just then She walks over to him gently touching his hair and commenting that it looks messy offering to fix it for him embarrassed he stands up and walks outside insisting he'll take care of it himself Kubo feels her cheeks flush as she realizes

she's never seen him in such a disheveled State before as shishi and Cubo walk down the the stairs she suddenly asks him about his height which surprises him he tells her that he's 163 cm tall she then shares that she is 160 Cm as he continues down the stairs she stops and points out that with the stair difference the gap between them is now 15 cm which she calls the ideal difference between couples shayi a bit puzzled mentions that the guy is usually the taller one in a couple Kubo Pats his head and reassures him

that it's okay the other way around too her closeness making him nervous as he wonders how she can get so comfortable around him she then asks if he wants to be taller and He agrees she suddenly jumps down the stairs playfully saying that height doesn't matter to her Shiri looks at her in confusion which only deepens when she blushes and mentions that her height makes it easy to kiss seeing his awkwardness she averts her gaze saying it was just a joke at night sherish she gets ready for bed he checks his phone and notices a

decline in New Year's postcard deliveries this makes sense to him given the Popularity of messaging apps like line and it doesn't concern him much since he usually only receives postcards from relatives putting his phone down he prepares to sleep but just as he covers his face to drift off his phone rings the notification reveals a message from cubos San asking what he's up to she then asks if he wants to talk on the phone mentioning that she's feeling sleepy but also wants to send New Year messages she suggests that a call might Help her stay

awake sh she is taken aback by her request he's never spoken to a girl on the phone before especially not a call like this after some hesitation he decides to call her but in his nervousness he accidentally hits the video call Button which freaks him out Cubo answers the video call blushing since she didn't expect him to make a video call he observes her surroundings silently as she appears in her pajamas in her room CUO apologizes for her Unexpected request worried she might have Disturbed him but he assures her he's fine she then asks about

his winter homework and he awkwardly replies that it's mostly done she admits she also has some left to do they look at each other in silence hubo blushing she notes that it's already midnight and suggests they should call it a night as sherei prepares to end the call she teasingly asks if he wants to continue talking a bit longer which surprises him however She quickly dismisses it as a joke ano he tells her he's going to hang up but she suddenly shouts his name and wishes him a happy New Year she thanks him for calling

her as she's about to hang up he calls her name startling her slightly he doesn't say much just mentioning that he'll talk to her later which makes her blush they end the call and as Cuba goes to bed she's reading and thinking about his words remembering that he said soon shishi notices his mismatched socks and Realizes he must have been really sleepy that morning however no one noticed during Jun class in the second period so it didn't bother him much he then glances at Cubo who is happily chatting with her friends and he finds finds

it hard to imagine her making silly mistakes like his as kugo senses someone watching her she turns to him and asks what's going on he quickly looks away pretending he doesn't know what she's talking about she then points out that She noticed him staring at her throughout the break feeling embarrassed he assures her that nothing is wrong though he can't shake the feeling that something about her seems different today just as he is about to figure it out the school day ends as CUO prepares to leave their teacher asks her to change the prints on

the bulletin board before she goes she asks sherish she for help as she tries to attach the print at the top of the board but can't reach it She asks for his assistance though not much taller he thinks he might manage if he stretches a little suddenly he remembers his mismatched socks and steps back claiming he can't reach it either and will look for a chair instead he knows Cubo would tease him if she saw them as he tries to leave Cubo catches up to him bends down and pulls up his pant leg slightly revealing

the mismatched socks she then takes the chair to attach the print herself sherei Puzzled by her odd behavior all day finally figures out the reason he blurts out that it's her tights which makes her blush sitting down on the chair she asks if he notice them she explains that she didn't have any clean socks and her tights were the only option since socks take a surprisingly long time to dry blushing she then accuses him of looking at her legs and calls him lewd shiray stunned tries to explain that he wasn't staring at her legs legs

but was trying To figure out what seemed different about her all day hubo smiles and references the entire day making Shiri more anxious as he attempts to explain further she tells him to focus on finishing the work first while Cubo changes the poster he struggles to find a way to clear up the misunderstanding Valentine's Day is a time when girls give chocolates to boys and confess their feelings making it seem like an event for girls however it's actually a Festival for boys with chocolate serving as their ticket to partake in anticipation of receiving chocolates boys

start acting nicer to girls a week in advance as Sher she arrives in class he quickly realizes that the reason for the boy's restlessness today is because it's Valentine's Day but for him it's nothing special in elementary school teachers used to give chocolates to students but he was often overlooked and never received any settling at his bench He is stunned to find a chocolate in his desk which freaks him out he thinks about how he usually deals with pranks and assumes someone might have left it by mistake he tries to announce this to the class

but as usual no one pays attention to him shocked he wonders why there's a chocolate in his desk and who it might be from the only person who comes to mind is Cubo but he dismisses the thought as he's banging his head on the desk in frustration hubo approaches Noticing his rening forehead she asks if he's okay and he stands up realizing he can't ask her directly about the chocolate summoning his courage he calls her name but instead of of asking about the chocolate he awkwardly inquires about the weather hubo sensing his unease mentions that

today is Valentine's Day and asks if he's ever received chocolate before when he replies no she blushes feeling a bit guilty for her reaction hubo then points To his desk indicating the chocolate inside when he asks if she knows anything about it she nods and smiles encouraging him to eat it because the person who made it put a lot of effort into it he looks at the chocolate wanting to eat it but unsure if it's really meant for him she assures him that it's for him and walks away after saying goodbye as he looks out

the window still confused about who made the chocolate Kubo stands outside the door Smiling to herself she decides not to reveal the secret walking down the corridor and leading him in bewilderment one day ago when Cuba returned from the store her sister noticed the bags in her hands and asked what they were for Kubo explained that she was going to make Valentine's Day chocolates her sister smiled admitting that she had completely forgot en about the upcoming holiday then surprised she asked why Cubo was making chocolates herself noting that She usually just bought chocolate and cookies

from the store and wrapped them up she even reminded Cubo of the time she burned pancakes to a crisp and couldn't tell the difference between cabbage and lettuce embarrassed hubo told her sister to be quiet and began working on her chocolates after a while hubo called her sister over announcing that she was finished but when Aina saw the dark unappetizing material on the plate she asked what it was Kubo insisted that it tasted good to her but her sister said it didn't look good enough to give to someone she suggested Cubo just buy chocolates from

the store but Cubo refused determined to try again her sister noticing the determination in kubo's eyes asked if she wanted to give the chocolates to blushing Cubo lied saying she was going to give them to her friends her sister blushed too teasing her that she knew Cubo was lying akina then offered to help saying she would Make some sweets too Kubo initially refuse wanting to do it herself but her sister smirked and said she was making them for herself anyway as they worked together her sister taught Cubo some tricks and in the end they both

succeeded in making beautiful cookies her sister tried cubo's cookies noting that they tasted better even though they had made the same recipe she speculated that the difference might be due to all the love Cubo had put into her bash and Assured her that the recipient would be thrilled she pointed out that while most of them looked a bit funny the one in the middle looked really nice after packing her batch Hugo went to her sister and thanked her for the help akina teased her again about who she made the nice cookie for making Cubo blush

once more in class both Cubo and Shiri are hiding under the rostrom he wonders why they're there when Cubo asks him about the teacher he responds saying That it seems like the teacher is still roaming outside Cubo then asks if he's still puzzled about why they're hiding laughing she reminds him that they got caught running in the hallway he blames her for it and she looks at him questioningly he explains that she started running first but cugo counters saying she saw him running and decided to chase after him it was then that the teacher saw

them yelled and started running after them forcing them to hide Under the rostrom he thinks about all the running they did and starts to feel exhausted Cubo feeling hot takes off her card again which makes Shiri freak out a bit though he's not sure why as she notices his discomfort and sees him sweating she moves closer much closer making him even more uncomfortable smiling she declares that she's found his weak spot which is near his ear she Whispers softly making him feel ticklish amused by his reaction she asks if she Should stop she then gently

holds his ears teasingly saying that he seems to like it suddenly she Peaks out from under the rostrom and announces that the teacher is gone but then to shiri's surprise she Ducks back in saying she wants to hide with him a little longer and asking if he's okay with that Kubo is at a cafe with her friends one of them notices her blushing face and comments on how she's becoming cuter every day almost like she's glittering Another friend nudges her playfully asking if she's found someone she likes this startles Cubo and her friend points out
