Summary
Kujirai starts her day leisurely, by smoking and eating watermelon on her balcony, while gazing upon the Kowloon Walled City she lives in. She follows by leaving to work at the Wang Lai Real Estate agency, where she is more late than usual, but still on time. While punching in her time card, Kudou forces himself over her shoulder, punching in his first and making her 1 minute late to work.

A frustrated Kujirai tells Kudou that he made her late to work, which he then attempts to rectify by taking her out to Lunch.

While eating, Kujirai mentions that since the morning, the prescription of her glasses didn't seem right, leading to her using eye drops from a company which Kudou claimed promoted a "Shady Director". He urges her to be old fashioned and simply massage her eyes rather than use their product, which leads them to bicker.

While continuing their walk, Fujirai suggests treating Kudou to a Fruits Juice place, which he declines. While she was thinking he not was interested, he explained that he actually wanted her to visit an optician to get her eyes checked instead, suggesting that he cared more for that than her paying him back. This begins to stir emotions in Kujirai.

Kujirai arrives at work after visiting the optician, stating that her vision had improved, making her glasses unnecessary. Kudou takes a quick glance and says he preferred her with them on, stirring further emotion in Kujirai.

While disposing of trash, a lot of noise was heard, disturbing the residents of the Eastern Tower, which bothers Kujirai. Kudou explains that there is no point in trying to deal with it, as this is the way of kowloon. Kujirai also brings up the restaurant she suggested visiting during lunch time, which Kudou explains will be closed down soon, as kowloon is a city of nostlagia - one loved by it's people - and that change is no good.

Kujirai explains that Kudou gives off a certain "pong" which she then asks could possibly be nostalgia, and Kudou gives her a fierce look, stirring emotion in Kujirai for the 3rd time. He follows by ignorantly saying she has a nose hair sticking out, completely killing the mood.

Kujirai ends her day as she started it, sitting on her balcony with a smoke while eating watermelon. She blushes while staring at the stars, astounded that she can see them without her glasses. She thinks about Kudou's words regarding everyone's love for Kowloon, while putting on her glasses anyways and makes a grin.

"Who could love such a gorilla though...?" she says.
