Momoi is still very much in love with Namura and tries to tell him. She is shocked when she discovers Namura's relationship with Meiko and tries to get Namura to stay in teaching. She becomes Namura's eyes to watch over Meiko while he is in Hiroshima. Momoi tells Namura that Meiko is finally starting to stand on her own and that she is getting encouragement from Miwa. Momoi encourages Meiko to write and becomes a friend to her. When she finally loses Namura for good, Momoi goes on a trip to Europe. She has met someone else and needs time to think about her feelings. In the last episode, Momoi and Akira, who just happens to be Kijima's brother-in-law, are still together. Looks like they make it!
