The day of the festival, Hisao manages to tempt Lilly away from her duties at the stall and enjoy the festival along with Hanako.
The day before the festival, Hisao encounters Lilly in town with her sister Akira and learns that Lilly moved into the dorms last year to compensate for Akira's worktime. Lilly notices Hisao's exhaustion and learns about his arrhythmia, making her the second student to know of it - Rin being the first. On the way back they meet a confused Rin wandering in the streets and bring her back to school with them. Later in the week the two meet one another heading into town and Lilly leads Hisao to the convenience store. He and Hanako help Lilly and the rest of Class 3-2 prepare their noodle stall for the upcoming school festival. Hisao also learns of the strained relationship between Lilly and Shizune.
Over the course of the week, Lilly helps Hisao adjust to life at Yamaku and the abnormalities of the students he encounters. The two converse over tea and Lilly takes Hisao to the library, only to leave in a hurry after his first disastrous encounter with Hanako. Hisao first encounters Lilly in the tea room on his second day at Yamaku while trying to find the library.
