This was another cute installment in this series đź’–

The ski trip our main cast went on had me absolutely cackling! Poor Aoki and Hashimoto could not get a hang of skiing and were absolutely being torn to shreds by the instructor đź’€ My poor babies! 

I was happy though that this ski trip made it so Aoki put all his cards on the table in terms of how he feels about Ida. And this leads to Aoki and Ida’s first date…which was so cute! Aoki’s whole freak out at having chosen a movie where the dog dies was super endearing! Especially considering he chose the movie because the main dog was the same breed as Ida’s dog. What a sweetheart 💖

Akkun and Hashimoto were going through it though in this volume! Hashimoto finally got the courage to confess her feelings…only for Akkun to be absolutely oblivious 🤦🏻‍♀️ someone needs to share a brain cell with him! He’s a good noodle at heart, but he sure DOESN’T have a way with words. 

Anyway! I’m glad to continue on with this series ✨
