Ann and Daigo's long distance relationship is tested as time passes and they each spend more time with their aristocratic childhood friends, brother and sister Fuji and Shika, than each other.

Aya risks losing the all-important National Ballet Competition when her friend Nachan becomes distraught and then threatens suicide.

Aya finds herself competing with world-famous ballerina Diana Roberts in Akira's affections as well as professionally. Then, when the sponsorship of a wealthy businessman depends on Aya being removed from the performance, will Akira put her feelings first?.

Eager to reconnect with her boyfriend Daigo, sixteen-year-old Ann returns to Shimane from Tokyo for the summer, but the interference of Fuji and Shika might complicate the young couple's romantic attachment.
