One day in 2008, after surfing at the beach, he asked Kanae out but his confession was interrupted by a phone call to her. One night, he called Kanae and met her on a grass field, where he listened to her story about a boy she had had a crush on in high school. After he explained why he liked her, she asked him to give her time to think.
Some time later, he received a call from Kanae in Tokyo. Although disappointed to be rejected by her, he promised to not give up.
