A Gift From the Angel
On Valentine's Day, after the two neighbors eat dinner together as usual, Mahiru gives Amane some hot chocolate.

When Mahiru rushes home, still unable to say what's on her mind, Amane notices a small bag with a card at his front door. Inside the bag are chocolates that Mahiru made especially for Amane, who had said that he doesn't like very sweet things. In return, Amane gives Mahiru a special present on White Day.
