9

In the morning, Yamada and Kyotaro get ready for the day. Yamada decides between finding a good nickname for Kyotaro or if she should just call him by his first name. Later on, Yamada heads for a photoshoot in Hiroshima. Kyotaro spends his day at a cherry blossom viewing party with his friends. The teenagers discuss an idol scandal while at the park. Back at home, Kyotaro takes a look at Yamada's social media. He realizes that she wears the presents he gave her, and some of her pictures hint at their relationship. He knows that this could threaten her career, since she has never officially announced that they are dating. In particular, he notices that one very devoted fan has picked up on Yamada's indiscretions. During a video call with Yamada, Kyotaro advises her to be careful. Suddenly, someone startles Yamada from behind, and the call cuts out. Without any responses from her for a day, Kyotaro is left feeling anxious. Due to his anxiety about the situation, he heads to Yamada's home. Yamada's father lets him in, and they have tea together. Yamada calls home and informs her dad that she dropped her phone in water after being startled by her mom. Realizing that she has a message for Kyotaro, Yamada's dad calls her back. Yamada clears up the misunderstanding Kyotaro had. Kyotaro and Yamada both tell Yamada's father and mother simultaneously that they have a romantic interest in each other. Both parents respond positively to the news. The day after, Kyotaro is checking Yamada's social media. He sees the obsessive fan is posting that they met Yamada. In a hurry, he heads over and has ramen with Yamada and her friend. To his surprise, Kyotaro realizes that the obsessive fan is actually Yamada's friend, Niko. Understanding this, he determines that there is no danger to Yamada and stops worrying. On the train ride home, Yamada and Kyotaro discuss having appropriate distance in public and agree to be careful with pictures posted online. (Source: Wikipedia)
