Synopsis

Salaryman Yoshida has been in love with his coworker, Airi Gotou, for five years. Despite finally arranging a date with her, his confession is promptly rejected. Drunk and disappointed, he stumbles home, only to find a high school girl sitting by the side of the road. The girl, needing a place to stay for the night, tries to seduce Yoshida. Despite rejecting her advances, he invites her to his apartment.

The next morning, the girl, introducing herself as Sayu Ogiwara, reveals that she fled Hokkaido for Tokyo. During her six months on the run, she traded sexual favors for a roof over her head. Yoshida, however, remains indifferent to her seduction. Instead, he asks her to do a different kind of work—one that involves washing dishes, laundry, and housekeeping. And so, a touching relationship between a heartbroken adult and a runaway high school girl begins.
