Sana hosts a Christmas gathering while Akito struggles to choose a present. He consults his friend and sister, who advise him to offer something sincere rather than material. Consequently, Akito arrives at the event without a gift. Upon seeing him, Sana presents him with a present instead. Later, Akito constructs a snowman that Sana appreciates. Following this, he kisses her, and immediately retreats after their lips part. Sana is left to ponder why she did not flee from the kiss. The narrative focuses on the emotional exchange between the two characters during the holiday celebration and the lingering impact of the moment.
