Hana no En

1. Hana no En (3 chapters) Hajime and his older brother Jirou run a small flower shop named Utage, which is facing the threat of possibly closing down because very few customers come by their place. Hajime in a moment of desperation asks Jirou's good friend Sou, who is a kadou (ikebana) teacher, whether Sou would consider buying flowers from their shop. Sou answers with a challenge. If Hajime can get his younger sister Madoka to agree to the plan, Sou will gladly become one of flower shop Utage's regular customers. However, Madoka does not seem to be an easy one to convince...

Honami finds out as she begins meeting her new neighbors.
