Asakura, Kiyomi

朝倉清美

She is Kazama's childhood friend. Secretly, she harbors a one-sided love for him. She knows that Kazama suffers from a terminal illness and wants him to undergo the life-threatening surgery that would save his life. However, she dislikes Eba because of their relationship and Eba's quiet apprehensiveness toward the surgery. With Haruto's help, Kiyomi tries to confess to Kazama many times without success, only to awkwardly blurt it out at his pre-surgery good-luck party in chapter 99.
Kiyomi attends Seijo University with Haruto, Asuka, Nanami, Takashi, and Akari. She and Takashi are now dating. Their relationship progressed slowly, given their different personalities, until they finally made love.
