Miyoshi has been struggling in silence about her feelings for Risa for multiple months now, and it is finally out in the open. She initially wanted to keep it private between her and Sudo, but since she decided to open up to Risa, there is still hope.

Risa hadn’t talked to her for many days after, but she finally expressed her feelings before the operation. Miyoshi will likely turn back on her decision to remove her feelings since it is a part of her, and Sudo will also agree.

3. Recap of Episode 8

Risa struggles to get out of bed on her day off, eventually going through her morning routine and dressing up for her day out. She goes to a café and eats a bunch of cake before buying materials for baking. She returns home and begins making a Valentine’s Day cake for Sudo.

The following day, she gives out chocolates to everyone and hands Hikaru a special cake just for him. He immediately starts eating it and expresses his gratitude. However, Risa feels that he still doesn’t like the cake and feels down about it.

White day comes next, and Hikaru makes a return gift cheesecake with perfect measurements and timing. He gives it to Risa, who is shocked by its deliciousness. A few days later, Miyoshi comes to the clinic for a consultation with Hikaru.

She asks him to permanently remove her ability to feel romance since it burdens her mental health. He says her request is very serious and needs a questionnaire and preparation time before he can perform surgeries. Risa overhears the consultation and plans a group dinner with Mari.

Although the two try to help her, she constantly avoids the question and doesn’t want to discuss it. Eventually, she confesses her love for Risa, and the conversation immediately gets uncomfortable. Risa has feelings for Hikaru, which is why she got the consultation.

Although she comes in for multiple revisits, Risa takes some time from Miyoshi without talking to her. Sudo has already deduced the entire situation and confronts Risa, encouraging her to speak to her before it’s too late. Before Miyoshi steps into the operating room, Risa grabs her hand.
