Rumbling Hearts
Volume 2

Haruka has finally awoken, but her memory problems and the infirm state of her psyche have left her unaware that three years have past. Her doctor cautions against revealing the truth to her yet, so an elaborate deception is played out for Haruka. Despite Akane's initial vehement disapproval of Takiyuki's visits, Haruka responds well enough to them Takiyuki feels obligated to visit her daily and act as if they are still a couple. His visits put a great strain on his relationship with Mitsuki, who sees and feels him slipping away from her and back towards her best friend from high school.
