Plot[]
A client is speaking on the phone with Kon. The client has started dating with Kon's help and is now thanking her for all the support she provided. Kokon is delighted by this, as she takes pride in her work.
Kokon then heads to the Love Agency to get her pay. There, the president once again asks her not to behave as if she works for a shady company. They then talk about her pay; despite being paid at market rate and more than what most high schoolers are earning, Kokon is not satisfied as she plans to do everything on her own, and she needs the money. The president asks her about her full support contracts, such as the one with Mari. Kokon admits that the assignment is pretty tough and that she needs to come up with some kind of plan.
She then asks about Pon, whom she assumes will be cleaning the office that day; the president reminds her that it's also a weekday and that he should be at school. Kokon is relieved and decides to stay around to finish some paperwork. The president then asks why she doesn't get along with him. Kokon explains that he started a fight with her the moment he joined the agency, saying that he would surpass her as the #1 in the agency. Since then, she has always dismissed him as a fraud with little experience in love. The president questions why she thinks he is inexperienced in love and tells her that experience in love can come in many forms, such as those who can dive deep into conversations.
At that moment, Kengo arrives and he greets Kokon in his usual provocative manner, annoying her. She explained that she was in the office to collect her pay and report on her success. Kengo said he was also in the office to report success. Kengo says he is also in the office to report success. Unable to tolerate his presence, Kokon storms out, telling the president to install an air purifier. After a quick sniff, the president asks Kengo if the perfume he puts on is the one Kokon likes, right? The president then questions why he is constantly provoking Kokon when he likes her.
Kengo explains that he went to the same middle school as Kokon, but someone popular like her would not remember someone like him. So rather than being treated as if he doesn't exist, he would rather be disliked and acknowledged by her. Besides, the unpopular ones have their own love strategies, after all.
