Regina looks at Mana

They first went to her family's restaurant, where Regina and the others were eating. Regina is surprised by the cooking and compliments it, although Mana's grandfather said that it would be better if he made it. Everyone shares a laugh before Mana and Regina head to her bedroom. Still worried, Regina is calmed by Mana, who promises they would do anything for her and that she shouldn't worry. Then they went to sleep, Mana got shocked at seeing Regina to be in the same bed, but both of them went to sleep.

The Trio arrives

The next day everyone was prepared to go to the beach, with a van. They observe the amazing scenery before arriving, and rush off to play. They play in the water, build sand castles, and drink some tea made by Alice. Everyone was happy and they decide to take a picture together; only for Mana to accidentally ruin it. Her father, Kentaro, assures them its fine though. Then suddenly, the Selfish Trio arrived.
