Akari, Hinata, and Momo pay Rei a visit on New Year’s Eve when he’s left bedridden from a cold he’s had since Christmas. The Kawamoto sisters forcibly take him to the doctor and then back to their home. Rei gets much better from the porridge and tender loving care, but feels guilty for causing his foster father, Kouda, and the sisters to worry. Rei takes on the New Year with the warmth of the Kawamoto family.
