We Walked Slowly Both Kyotaro and Anna arrive to their meeting on Christmas Eve early, and he realises Anna dressed up while he looks like a stalker. Anna takes him for pancakes, causing him to feel he is on a first date. Kyotaro is embarrassed when he realises he can’t afford anything except coffee and feels increasingly embarrassed to look Anna in the face. While clothes shopping Anna asks him to pick outfits for her, flustering him when he hears her undressing behind the curtain. Kana appears shopping and Anna, realising Kyotaro doesn’t want Kana to see them, pulls him into the changing room with her. Due to their proximity, Anna is able to make Kyotaro promise to introduce her to his sister soon. Kyotaro is shocked to see her bra under her unzipped dress, which she decides to buy. Kyotaro is able to tell her he is having fun, so she reveals a scarf she bought him. To not be separated on the busy train, Kyotaro grabs Anna's hand and they just keep holding hands for the entire journey plus their walk home, unsure of when to let go until then. Kyotaro is surprised Anna hopes to see him again before New Year’s Eve and he starts to wonder if she's aware that he likes her.
