The air in the Asahina home is sharp with the scent of pine and the quiet anticipation of Christmas. In the stillness, a scene of utter chaos has been laid out. Ena Shinonome lies on the floor, bound securely by Mizuki's overly enthusiastic knots and adorned with frilly gift ribbons. A sticky note reading 'Mafuyu's present :3' is stuck near her cheek. Mafuyu, having just returned from her after-school club, freezes in the doorway at the sight. A heavy silence fills the room, broken only by Ena's rapid, flustered breaths as she realizes her humiliating predicament is now her best friend's problem to solve.
