Kou and Futaba's date falls through, and she gets more nervous about Kou's mysterious friend moving to town. The boy Futaba knocked over and had an awkward encounter with tires once again to show her he likes her, while she remains oblivious to the meaning behind his words. Kou gets jealous when he sees them together but keeps pushing her away. (very teenaged behavior)

I am also, not so nervous but I don't like that a love square is coming into play after the love triangle was just resolved.
