During her last summer vacation of high school, Ayano had traveled alone from Tokyo to Kyoto to search for her best friend, Mirai, who had disappeared. Before summer vacation, the shy Mirai had been confessed to by Katsuragawa, a classmate and the most popular boy in school. Although they started dating, Mirai consulted Ayano about everything related to their relationship.

Ayano suspected that she might be the reason Mirai had run away from home.
