episode 7: I...

Renji and Chihiro continue working on the novel at his school's library and they manage to get to around 70% complete. Afterwards, the two take a walk on the beach and Chihiro suddenly asks Renji if he wants to kiss her. This seemingly simple act throws Renji off balance and says that their relationship is not like that, which causes Chihiro to run away in tears. Their relationship seems to be developing in the process, but Renji is bothered by something. Renji breaks down, hoping she will not write down what had just happened in her diary.

The story shifts to a flashback of when Miyako was waiting for Hirono to show up for their date. Miyako continues to send him voice messages on his cell phone, first being angry for him not showing up, but later becoming increasingly desperate with each call as Miyako does not want Hirono to ignore her. The story shifts back to the present in Hirono's room, with Hirono and Kei together. Kei hurt his leg and Hiro decides to stay with her.

After Hiro leaves his room to get food, Kei discovers Miyako's messages -- before Hiro discovers Miyako's messages himself. He promptly deletes them, as she vowed to "erase her from his memories".
