After hearing Hongyo's answer she can't seem to get it out of her head. Whenever she is caught up in her thoughts she ends up over cooking, which actually puts her in Kiritani's good graces and she hates cooking as gets Terada to cook for her. Unable to get the past out of her head, she immediately refuses Hongyo's request to sleep beside each other for only 3 more times. Her explanation is interrupted when Hase comes back home from work, where she shocks Terada by asking her to marry him or at least date him with the thought of marriage. His reasoning for wanting to marry her doesn't make her really inclined though she never gives him a straight answer. She does learn though that Hongyo is suppose to write a new novel but he hasn't been able to write anything new since his impotency. Along with Terada becoming his fan after reading his 3 novels in one night, she agrees to sleep in his bed for 3 more times. This doesn't go very well when she lets things get a little to intimate the next morning.
