As Kaori and Kosei spend more time together, Kosei realizes that he is in love with Kaori although she is interested in Ryota. It is revealed that Kaori is anemic and needs to undergo routine testing when she faints on stage in the middle of a performance and is hospitalized. She had invited Kosei to play with her on stage at a gala but she is unable to attend due to her health issues. Kosei continues to play at the gala with another friend, which motivates Kaori to undergo a risky surgery so that she can get better and perform with Kosei once again. While Kaori undergoes the surgery, Kosei is playing at the finals of the Eastern Japan Piano Competition, where he suddenly sees Kaori’s spirit and understands that she has died while undergoing the surgery. At Kaori’s funeral, her parents give Kosei a letter written by Kaori in which she states that she was aware that was going to die and that resulted in her enjoying her life so that she would not carry any regrets with her to heaven. She also reveals that she is in love with Kosei since she was 5 years old and saw him play at a concert.
