Knuckles starts falling in love with Shadow. But something feels very off. Especially when Shadow oddly only wants seeing him on even dates!

One day in February, Shadow makes a huge mistake. He declined Knuckles to meet him on February the 29th... And promised to meet him on the next day... Believing it would be an even date.
which it's not!
So, Mars the 1st, Knuckles drives home to Shadow and knocks the door. Ready to meet his boyfriend.
But it wasn't Shadow who opened the door... It was Mephiles with a big secret to drop... And now, Knuckles knows the reason why, he wasn't permitted to meet Shadow at odd-numbered dates...
