Why Did You Buy a Planetarium?
Question:
If you live alone and don't have a partner, would you have a couple of mugs at home?
The answer is definitely no.
And now, Miharu sees a pair of mugs at her sister's house.
"As expected..."
Miharu collapses weakly to the ground, her eyes losing focus.
All evidence indicates that the man named Kamikawa Ren earlier was her sister's boyfriend, and he already lives with her.
At this point, even though she wants to deceive herself, there's nothing she can do.
No wonder her sister is reluctant to give up her career as a teacher and practice figure skating together.
Her sister is a genius; as long as she's willing to return to skating, there wouldn't be any problems even though she's older now.
But her sister never stopped her job as a teacher, clearly because of that man.
The forbidden love between teacher and student is the real reason preventing her sister from returning to the right path.
"Miharu, what's wrong with you?"
Mafuyu notices something strange about her sister.
"Nothing."
After waving her hand, Miharu stands up and makes a decision.
Meaning, whatever happens, she must let her sister return to the right path and practice figure skating again.
To achieve this goal, first, she must end the forbidden love between the man named Ren and her sister.
The way to cut it off is very simple; she just needs to make Ren fall in love with herself, forget her sister, and at the same time make her sister realize that Ren is a half-hearted man.
This way, her disappointed sister will return to playing skating.
As for herself?
It doesn't matter, as long as she can bring her sister back to the right path, no matter how much price she has to pay.
Because it's summer vacation and there's still plenty of time, just defeat that man altogether.
With this thought in mind, Miharu devises a plan in her heart.

During the day, Asumi goes to Ren's house.
"By the way, the name Miharu seems somewhat familiar."
Asumi, who is cooking in the kitchen, suddenly remembers something and says to Ren, who is sitting at the dining table waiting to eat.
"I don't feel like it."
"Kouhai-kun, try searching her name on the internet. I remember someone mentioning it."
"Sure."
Ren opens the search engine and enters the name Kirisu Miharu.
Soon, many pages appear.
"Kirisu Miharu, an active amateur skater, studying at Tokyo Women's University..."
After glancing at Asumi, who is still busy, he reads out the information he found.
"I wonder why it sounds so familiar. Turns out she's a skater."
Asumi brings out the prepared dish; it seems like she suddenly realizes something.
"Is she famous?"
Ren doesn't pay too much attention to this aspect.
In other words, he never really cared about anything that didn't concern him.
"I'm not sure, but I've seen her on TV and heard customers and others talking about her." Asumi shakes her head slightly, "Anyway, Miharu-san is very pretty."
"Oh."
Ren doesn't care much about this.
"By the way, did you know that Kirisu-sensei was also a skater before?" Asumi casually asks.
"Did Sensei do it before?"
Ren looks very surprised, and even his calm tone fluctuates.
This is the first time he has heard this news.
"You didn't even know about this?"
Asumi looks very surprised because he didn't know about this.
"Yeah. It's the first time I've heard of it."
"Kirisu-sensei was very famous back then, but I don't know why she suddenly left her career." Asumi briefly introduces, "I don't know much about these things, and I just listen to what others say."
"So that's it."
"On the other hand, you don't really understand Kirisu-sensei?" Asumi says very confusedly, "I have doubts about the relationship between you and Kirisu-sensei."
"There's nothing to doubt. She and I have always had a teacher-student relationship."
"Change your dialogue; I've heard this sentence several times." She sighs.
"..."
······
The time soon came in the afternoon.
Ren comes to Angel Cafe early and waits for Kaguya's arrival.
"Long time no see, Kamikawa-kun."
Shortly after, Kaguya appears in front of him in casual clothes.
"It's been a while since I've seen you."
After Ren finishes his reply, he looks at the time.
It's already 1:50 in the afternoon, not yet the promised 2 o'clock.
"What would you like to drink?"
After the waitress arrives, he hands the menu to Kaguya and asks gently.
"Just a cup of coffee."
Kaguya orders it casually.
"Me too."
His purpose in coming here this time is not to drink, but to discuss business with Kaguya, so it doesn't matter what he drinks.
After the waitress leaves, Kaguya asks with a thin smile on her face, "I'm curious if Kamikawa-kun needs my help?"
"I want to buy a planetarium."
Seeing her get straight to the point, Ren expresses his thoughts without hesitation.
"A planetarium?"
Kaguya repeats unconsciously, and his answer is slightly beyond her expectations.
"What kind of planetarium are you talking about? Is it the type you can enter and visit, or just a model you can buy?"
"One that you can enter and visit."
Giving a model as a gift is truly insincere.
"..."
Kaguya is silent in a rare moment.
After gathering her thoughts, she continues, "Buying a planetarium requires a lot of money. Do you have that much money?"
She's just a high school student now, even though her family spoils hee, they couldn't give her that much money.
"Yes." Ren is not worried about money at all, "It's just that I found some planetariums, but they refused to sell them to me."
"So that's it."
Kaguya feels poor for the first time.
Even though she is the eldest daughter of the Shinomiya family, it's impossible for her to spend enough money to buy a planetarium.
Even though she has a black card in her hand, she will be scolded if she spends money recklessly.
"In that case, Kamikawa-kun, what is your purpose in buying a planetarium? Is it an investment?" Kaguya asks curiously, "Of course, if you don't want to tell me, that's fine. I'm just asking casually."
"To give it."
Ren naturally asks.
Kaguya: "Huh?"
