Suddenly Rito sees, on the roof, a naked girl looking at him, and she says that the Moon is beautiful indeed. Shocked, Rito leaves running into the house and he goes to bathroom saying Mikan that there was a naked girl in the garden. But he collides with Mikan, whom just left the shower and is naked, resulting in a embarassing situation as usual. The girl then appear using the word "Mau" and asks what they are doing.

Momo recalls as she got surprised when Celine became human-like and this incident is surprising moreover. Celine then asks Rito and Mikan to take care of her although she has grown up.

Later, Rito goes to walk down the corridor of the upstairs floor when he sees that Mikan is doing something and asks if there is anything wrong. Mikan explain she suddenly felt sad while putting away Celine' children clothes because she will' never wear them again. Mikan tells its not how she's gone, but its still strange and Rito agreed imagining Yui' reaction when she will meet Celine. Rito then starts to rub Mikan' headbut telling that she's still Celine and they should rejoice at her growth. Mikan blush and tells him to don't stroke her head so easily. Celine suddenly arrives telling she want all three of them to sleep together to commemorate her growth. Rito and Mikan accept and, when Celine finally falls asleep, Rito returns to his bed but Mikan stops him and says they can sleep together in her bed because its a special day. Behind the door, Momo listened all about it and she admit there is no room for her to interfere while they getting along.
