Shitsuren Karuta Episode 6

Ayase and Murata start dating as a kind of “trial relationship.” They secretly make plans to go on dates at work, and little by little the distance between them keeps shrinking. Meanwhile, Chinami finally becomes a couple with Shibuya, an editor at a publishing company. Just as these new romances begin to move forward, a quiet crack starts to grow between Hikaru and Riku. With his father hospitalized and the medical bills piling up, Riku can’t bring himself to tell Hikaru the truth. Instead, he starts juggling multiple part-time jobs and even dips into the savings he had set aside for his dreams. Hikaru’s kindness and brightness only make Riku feel the gap between them even more painfully. Their feelings keep missing each other, and one night the tension finally spills over into words that can’t be taken back. Then, while Chinami and Ayase are in the middle of their own happiness, they suddenly receive a missed call from Hikaru… and he isn’t there. (Source: Japanese = MBS || Translation = kisskh)
