On his way to school, Konoha Inoue sees his friend and fellow member of the literature club Tohko Amano, but decides to not call out to her after she starts searching through a trash bin. Tohko finds a bird house in the bin and takes it to school. After school, Tohko gives Konoha 50 minutes to write a short story, which she will later eat as a snack, with three topics: a bamboo boat, a love letter, and pole vaulting. As he starts writing, Tohko describes the novella First Love by Ivan Turgenev that she is currently reading and consuming. When time is up, Konoha has to rush the ending of his story and Tohko starts to read and eat it. Initially, she enjoys the story and its taste, akin to melon soda, but the story quickly turns sour and despite the taste now being of Tabasco sauce, finishes eating the story. The bird house is shown to have been painted by Tohko and placed on the school grounds with a note for people who need help in matters of love to leave letters for the literature club, who will solve their problems.
