Hina attends the literature club's camp as a guardian. At this point, Hina hears from Kiritani-sensei that Hagiwara-san's divorce is finalized. I thought that another strange complication would arise, but it seems that Hina is gradually becoming attracted to Natsuo. However, since she had said that she couldn't be in that kind of relationship, she is unable to move forward. However, one day, she witnesses Natsuo and Rui kissing at home.

In fact, their relationship was a secret from everyone. Well, that makes sense. They're stepbrothers, after all.

Prior to this, Rui had confessed to Hina that he liked Natsuo. Given that, who would have thought they would end up in this kind of relationship... There's a bit of a fuss with Rui, who likes Natsuo, but in the end they return to being close brothers.

To be honest, I'm a little put off by Natsuo's continued romance with his older sister and younger sister under the same roof, but I'm curious about the future of Hina and Natsuo's relationship. Rui has finally brought up the idea of breaking up. I'm curious to see how he responds, but if they do break up, perhaps Hina and Yori will get back together? This is a work that will leave me very curious to see what happens next!
