Rumbling Hearts

Haruka is gaining some awareness of the passage of time, while Takayuki has no idea of where Misuki has disappeared to. When Haruka finally asks what day it is and how much time has passed, she is upset to learn that they have lied to her this entire time. Akane simply cannot take anymore and tells her sister the full, harsh truth, sending everyone into a panic. Meanwhile, Mitsuki has hit rock bottom, believing she has lost it all. With her liquid courage she seeks to damn them all…

Everyone’s lives are spiraling out of control. Takayuki doesn’t seem to have even the slightest interest in the promotion being offered to him at work, and Mitsuki’s drinking is getting worse.

As Takayuki begins to enjoy the fantasy more than the reality, Mitsuki becomes suspicious and decides to visit Haruka herself. All the young girl can talk about is their “shared” beau and her love for him. That evening Mitsuki presents Takayuki with an ultimatum, forcing him to end his daily visits. Instead of getting better, their home life gets much, much worse. One rainy evening at the restaurant, Takayuki sees Akane across the street and worried, heads straight to the hospital.

As Takayuki spends more and more time at the hospital, his old feelings for Haruka begin to resurface. When Akane walks in and discovers the two in a romantic embrace, she accuses Takayuki of playing with her sister’s feelings. Mitsuki, upset by her suspicions that the young man still loves his high school sweetheart, makes matters worse with a night out on the town. Both of them distraught and distracted with recent events, words are spoken which cannot be taken back…

Haruka’s condition has them all living out a warped high school daydream, as they are forced to act as if the past three years haven’t occurred. For the young girl’s sake, Takayuki has vowed to visit her every day at the hospital and continue this façade. Remembering that Haruka was once the most important thing in his life, he wonders if she still is. When Mitsuki attempts to visit Haruka at the hospital, Akane stops her and yells at her for being selfish, chasing her off.

It’s been a year since the accident and Takayuki is in a deep rut of grief.  Mitsuki does everything she can to keep his spirits up, but it seems as if nothing can jar him from his dark state.  After a breakdown at the hospital, Takayuki is banned from visiting Haruka by her parents.  In an attempt to comfort him, Mitsuki ends up confessing her love for Takayuki, only to have Akane find out about her betrayal in the worst possible way.

Does he continue with his normal life with Mitsuki or return to the woman he left behind?

Three years have passed since the tragic accident.  Even though Takayuki, Mitsuki, and Shinji have continued their lives; Haruka has been stuck in a coma and left in the hospital.  Has the group of friends been separated forever?  Will a love blossom even through these dark times?  Just when things seem to be getting back to normal, there’s a reminder that darkness still waits just around the corner.

Life could not be better for Haruka and Takayuki. But unexpected feelings of jealousy drive Mitsuki to meddle. Running late for his date with Haruka, Takayuki bumps into Mitsuki once again.

High school is almost over, but Haruka has never seen the fruition of her deep crush on Takayuki.  Not to worry.  With her best friend’s help, Haruka is going to learn what it means to find the one person you’ve always felt was your soul mate.  But even best friends can’t control the emotions of a headstrong young man.  Haruka’s world is changing quickly, and soon, it will take a turn she can never take back.
