Yurika develops romantic feelings for Kakeru and organizes a tea party to socialize with him. Unable to invite him directly due to shyness, she asks Choco to bring her friends. Yurika is disappointed when Choco arrives not with Kakeru, but with several children she befriended in episode 14. This unexpected attendance disrupts Yurika's plans to spend time alone with Kakeru, leaving her dismayed by the presence of the group rather than her intended guest. The event highlights Yurika's awkward attempt to connect with Kakeru through indirect means and the resulting misunderstanding regarding the party's attendees.
