Show plot summary (may contain spoilers)
Tokyo office worker Yoshida has been crushing on his coworker, Airi Gotou, for five years. Whe finally scores a dinner date with her, his confession is promptly rejected. Drunk and disappointed, he stumbles home, only to find a high school girl sitting on the side of the road. The girl offers to seduce Yoshida for a place to stay the night; he rejects her advances, but invites her into his apartment. The girl is Sayu Ogiwara, who ran away from her home in Hokkaido six months previously and has been wandering around earning her living through sexual offers. Yoshida gives her a different offer: look after his home and food and laundry and it earns her a place in his home. And so begins a platonic bond between two different people. Can it last?
