"There's something I've been hiding from you, Kawahara-san..." Manami tells her boyfriend, Kawahara Yoji ( Ayumu Nakajima). Although she had pretended to Yoji that she had never thought of marrying anyone, she reveals that she had actually made a promise to marry a senior colleague at the publishing company where she used to work.
Aimi was dumped by her fiance. She couldn't give up, so she waited for him, sent him lots of presents, and called him crying. But one day, Aimi was reported to the police. Although it didn't become public, she was forced to resign from her company, and she lost both her fiance and her job. She even jumped into the ocean in winter.
