true tears

While at home, Shinichiro Nakagami laments how he cannot express his feelings for Hiromi Yuasa.

After insisting Shinichiro should believe her about giving her away her tears, Noe tells him of her mission to retrieve them.

When Shinichiro goes to school, he finds red seeds in pink envelopes which Noe has placed in his locker, desk, and around the classroom.

While walking back to Shinichiro's house, Hiromi tells him about her crush on Noe's brother, which hurts Shinichiro.

Shinichiro looks for Noe during school, but after she suggests they eat lunch together or go home together, he becomes defensive and lies, telling her that he has dance practice after school and that she should eat with her friends instead of him.

Aiko tries to tell Shinichiro her feelings but is interrupted when Miyokichi arrives.
