Honoka Tamarai

Sumire Inukai
Sumire is one of Nobunaga's childhood friends. Nobunaga has a crush on her. Nobunaga has been on his high school's health committee since the first year, so that he would have more chances to meet Sumire (who is the school nurse and health teacher). Whenever somebody is hurt, Nobunaga very proactively offers to take them to the nurse's office.

Because Sumire is a couple years older and is already a working adult, Nobunaga has been holding off his confession until when he is at least in college or when he also starts working (when he wouldn't be seen as a kid).
