Who was the stranger?
Akira only recognized the smell....

She went to high school. Though she hated a pair of cleverest student at school,
Toshiya Origa and Yumi Hashimoto, later they became her friend.
She despised a senior in basket ball club, so she didn't have any choice
than to prove that she could do better than her. She joined the club.
Toshiya, Yumi and Takao Kajitani were top players since junior high school.
They always went together, now including Akira.
Takao got trouble with his senior in the basket ball club. But when he apologized,
Akira was not hesitated to be angry with him, though she said she understood him most.
Then who was the beautiful girl she saw together with him in Gen's bar?
And why Takao got a fight with an American soldier?
In vol. 2, Akira was involved in a rectangle love affair.
