One day, Kaoru succeeded in entering the room of the princess. But Oigimi, who wished Kaoru to marry Nakanokimi, her younger sister, sneaked out of the room to ask her to take care of him alone. Surprised by the stubborn attitude of Oigimi, Kaoru passed the night with Nakanokimi, much as he had an earlier time with her elder sister. Oigimi received a poem from Kaoru who had returned in vain. He insisted on writing that he longed for Oigimi. Oigimi, still wanting her sister to take her place, asked Nakanokimi to reply. But Nakanokimi left it to Oigimi.
