It was days before team Natsume goes to the 9th district.

They had packed their belongings (although since Chiya barely brought anything she did most of the help), preparing for what's coming.

However since they started packing, Koume and Nono noticed Kon is being impatient, a blush is apparent in her face.

"Kon-Chan!" Nono called out.

"Kon. You seem to be in a trance these days..." Koume tells Kon.

"What!? I... I don't know what are you talking about!" Kon aggressively countered.

"Oh really? Is it not because of a certain someone in your mind, huh~? Or maybe it could be... Your weight is increasing?" Now Koume started to tease.

"Wrong! A-Absolutely wrong! I'm just thinking about Chiya, and how to make her like me-- huh?" Kon blurted it out, in which Koume's eyes went awkwardly wide while Nono became intrigued, a sparkle appears in front of her eyes.

"Well, it's always good to be honest. But since we just knew you are a lesbian, I think we should talk less by now--"

"Now hold on there, Koume! Even Nina-Sensei has feelings for Captain Saku, and yet you still respected her!"

"Uuhh..."

"Touché." Nono said, holding a dictionary which is Koume's, who then swiped it away.

"OK, I got some ideas hatching, but I need you two with me, not against me."

"What idea, Kon-Chan?"

"Tell us."

And after whispering the idea/plan she had to the both of them with a flustered face, Koume's face is filled with mischief while Nono giggled.

And thus, begin the campaign to make Kon be brave enough to confess to Chiya.

- Plan 1, make Chiya rub Kon's belly

"It's dinner time, everyone!" Nina called out to her students.

Koume and Nono were the first to reach the dining table, followed by Chiya and Kon respectively. After Chiya sat at her usual seat (which is between Nono and Kon's seats) Koume stood up, shaking.

"Umm... I need to go!" Koume then ran to the bathroom just as Chiya sat down, accidentally pushing Kon making her fall onto Chiya's lap.

However she landed head first onto the lap instead of back first, and thus Kon became stunned upon impact.

She then turned her body around, so she would face the ceiling.

"Kon? Is there anything wrong?" Chiya asked.

"Umm... Chiya, I... I don't think I'm well enough..."

"Oh! I understood."

Kon smiled, until....

Chiya rubbed and massaged Kon's head (thinking the fall might've hurt her head bad enough), and thus the plan failed since the massage was bad enough to worsen the pain, and the actual Target is her belly, not the head.

Nina and Tokie (who just came by to visit) giggled at Kon's condition.

- Plan 2, Ask the Kitsune spirit for help

The next day...

Kon, Koume and Nono sets up the Kokuri set on the floor and they started to chant the incantation so the spirit would come, after it arrives...

"Kitsune Spirit, can you make Kon be brave on confessing her love to Chiya?"

The coin then moved, forming the words get the cat and the tanuki to leave first.

Nono and Koume instantly knew the meaning since the Tanuki is Nono and the cat is Koume. They then let their fingers off the coin and left Kon alone with the Kokuri set.

"Sorry, Kon! I've got errands to run!"

"Me too!"

"Wait, come back! We're not even finished--" And Kon accidentally let her finger off the coin before she then blacked out.

When she woke up she found out that she was lying next to Chiya, both of them barely wearing any clothes and Chiya looked like as if she drank sake.

"What on Earth...? Don't tell me...?!" Kon is flabbergasted.

"Yes. You did it with Chiya! Congratulations, Kon!" Koume clapped her hands.

Then it all came to her, after she let go of her finger from the coin, the spirit took over her body, and somehow persuaded Chiya to drink a cup of sake, and after being drunk and the Kon's body became aroused thanks to Chiya's pheromones which are even powerful than last time during the bride festival (luckily, nobody else is home at that time), and eventually they had their ways at the bedroom.

"Aaaahh! I can't believe this~!"

"Don't worry, Kon! I've already drew a picture of what you both did just after we got home!"

She shows Kon a drawing of Kon's body on top of Chiya's, both are bare naked and sleeping.

And for the rest of the day, Kon didn't talk to Chiya. The drawing was then seen by a visiting Tokie who had an instant flashback of doing the same thing to a girl years ago, before becoming a second rank urara, though she didn't remember who her lover was at that time.

- Plan 3, ask her on a date

"Mother, can I tell you something?" Kon asked Tokie.

"Hmm? What about, Kon?"

"I'm... In love you know, with Chiya."

"I know, I've already seen the drawing Koume-San made."

"Please, it was a misunderstanding!" Kon blushed ferociously.

"Haha! You reminded me of my younger days before I became second rank!"

"Don't tell me you--"

"Yes my daughter, I've had my first time with a girl too~" Tokie then made a peace hand gesture.

"Like mother, like daughter..." Koume whispered as she and Nono hid behind a corner.

And finally Tokie gave her one advice, ask Chiya on a date.

"Of course, Kon! What's a date?"

"It's... You'll know it."

Both of them then left Natsume-Ya and walked around the district with Kon struggling the urge to hold hands with Chiya. What they didn't notice is that both Koume and Nono were following from behind, both wearing masks that Koume got from France.

"Hey Chiya... I'm hungry, let's have a bite to eat?"

"Of course, Kon! Coincidentally I'm hungry too!"

Both of them entered Anmitsu, and they had dango and sushi.

At one moment Kon spotted that some of the rice from the Sushi somehow got onto Chiya's left cheek. Kon took them and ate them.

"Why do you always eat the pieces that got onto my cheeks?"

"Because... Because I'm the only one who can do it for you, Chiya."

Koume and Nono began to have tense facial expressions as they waited for Chiya's reply.

However Chiya said nothing, and continued to eat peacefully.

Kon curses inside, thinking Chiya might be immune to flirts like that.

After done eating, the couple went to the natural springs were they tried the forbidden spring séance there.

"Isn't this the place where we did that spring séance thing?"

"Yes, we're gonna do it again, but we didn't bring our swimwear with us..."

"We could go in naked then!"

Off the distance, is a nose bleeding Koume and a fainted Nono.

Chiya stripped as fast as the wind and splashed, as Kon said "W... wait!"

Now it's going into another level. The date, that is.

Sighing and out of options, Kon decided to take off her clothes and walk into the water.

Both of them swam to the middle side of the springs which is the deepest area. They held each other's hands and prepared to dive in.

"OK... Ready, Chiya?"

"When am I not ready, Kon?"

"3...2...1... Go!"

Both then submerged into the water, where then Chiya felt Kon's lips pressing against her's.

Their bodies became intertwined, as they enclosed each other, until finally they had to let go, due to the need for oxygen.

After backing up to the surface, Kon, with a totally red face, then began to cry out silently.

"Kon? What's wrong? And, why did you kiss me?"

"Chiya... I think You won't like this, but... I... I loved you."

"I loved you too, Kon."

"No, not as a friend! But more, Chiya! What Koume told us that if 2 people collide to each other in their first meeting and they'll be in love is true! I felt that!"

Chiya smiled. She then patted Kon's head.

"Don't cry. I loved you more than a friend too, Kon."

"You... You do!?"

Chiya nods.

Both of them then hugged, this sends tears falling down from Nono's eyes as she witnesses the dramatic moment.

After dressing back up, both went back to Natsume-Ya, to see Koume speaking with Tokie and Nina about what she saw.

"And then, they submerged, and kissed! And it lasts for 2 minutes!"

"My my... My daughter sure has done it."

"It's too bad Saku is not here to hear this..."

Kon's head began to emit steam, and she cleared her throat.

Koume's face then shrunk, as she then turned around slowly, and said "Let's have dinner, shall we?"

And Koume was given a beating by Kon. Days later the group left Natsume-Ya, Nina was sad to say goodbye to Nono, and so does Tokie who said so to Kon. But all were happy that Kon had finally had someone to love.
