They go to the arcade, were Raido wins a special edition plushie after Eru failed to get it. She tells Raido to hand over the food and plushie to Aharen himself. However, as he arrives, he declares it was all Eru's idea, and Aharen hugs her sister, thanking her for her help. While bathing with Ren, Eru discusses Aharen's closeness to Raido, and they debate if they are dating. The next day, Raido comes across Ren, and helps him shop at the supermarket. He guides Ren after he lost his wallet, as Ren asks him if Aharen is his girlfriend. Aharen and Nui then arrive with the wallet, and after Raido calls Aharen by her first name, she becomes embarrassed.
