Haruka possesses strong confidence in her piano skills, a talent nurtured by her music-loving grandmother who raised her from childhood. Despite this solid foundation, she finds herself unable to perform during class settings. When her classmates respond with slanderous remarks, Haruka retreats into herself, visibly shrinking under the pressure. This negative interaction causes her mental state to deteriorate rapidly, leading to increasing depression. Witnessing her decline, Masato decides to intervene and take action to address the situation and support Haruka through her distress.
