The local community organizes a charity auction, and Yukari's flower shop donates several rare blooms. Takumi, who has been photographing the event for weeks, offers to help set up. Yukari is overwhelmed by the responsibilities of managing the event, so Takumi steps in, taking charge of small tasks like arranging flowers for the auction tables and directing guests. Their cooperation allows Yukari to breathe a little easier, and she begins to see a side of Takumi that's responsible and caring. During the auction, Takumi bids on a bouquet of flowers for Yukari, surprising her. She's touched by his thoughtfulness, and for the first time, she wonders if he might have deeper feelings for her.
