Following their trip to the beach, Kentaro has developed a crush on the older Ikuko and studies with her and Godai during their tutoring session. His quiet and shy behavior surprises Godai, until Kyoko later tells him that he has a crush, as most young boys develop crushes on older girls. Godai knows that that fact holds true not just for young boys! When Kyoko offers to cook dinner for Godai and Ikoku, he's overjoyed...but only until he finds out it's her late husband's favorite dish. However, Kyoko seems to have become closer to Godai; he held her hand after she accidentally cut herself, without protest.
