As the two go through each of the ten steps, Shirotani’s attraction to his counselor grows. Shirotani begins opening his heart to Kurose, until the counselor suddenly tells him that their sessions are over.

What will Shirotani do when he finds out the secret Kurose has been hiding from him this whole time?
