Actions speak louder than words.

Tonight is the company's annual New Year's Party and Onodera has to learn how to navigate the crowd of publishers, editors, and authors. Onodera and the rest of the editorial party go to work early to finish up before the party when Onodera gets an unexpected call from his mother about An-chan. Takano, to Onodera, calls An-chan his 'girlfriend' until the end of the party where he thinks he might have learned the truth about Onodera's love.
