Plot[]
The students of Eitoku Academy are talking about Tsukasa Domyoji leaving the school. They take this opportunity to speak to Akira Mimasaka and Sojiro Nishikado, which annoys them. Fleeing, the two wonder what has happened in New York and hope that Tsukasa will return soon. Meanwhile, Tsukushi Makino wants to thank Thomas. She and Rui Hanazawa bring him and his friends to a restaurant. The latter group eats voraciously while chatting. Tsukushi does not mention what happened with Tsukasa.
After dinner is over, Rui reaches for the bill only to realize that his wallet is gone. Thomas and his friends make a quick getaway, leaving Rui and Tsukushi on their own. The restaurant's manager ask them to clean the floor by morning to pay back the debt. In her element, Tsukushi immediately gets to cleaning. Rui begins talking and reveals that his relationship with Shizuka Todo ended in Canada. He confesses that Tsukushi changed him and when she began dating Tsukasa a "hole open[ed] up somewhere."
It is morning by the time Tsukushi and Rui have finished cleaning. The manager gave them a two dollar tip, which Rui remarks as being the "first money [he has] earned." He then tells Tsukushi to wait there for a second. She feels her heart still beating from Rui's confession earlier, making her feel uneasy. Rui shortly returns with a flower, the only thing he could find for two dollars. Tsukushi tears up and thinks of Tsukasa, remarking to herself "I'm the kind of girl who'll cry over something like this."
