Yoshida, an office worker, was heartbroken after his coworker, Airi Gotou, rejected his confession. Walking home drunk, he found a high school girl, Sayu Ogiwara, by the road. She'd run away from home and tried to seduce him in exchange for a place to stay. Yoshida refused her advances but still let her into his apartment since she's all alone and with no other place to go.
The next day, Sayu admits she'd been exchanging sexual favors for shelter for six consecutive months. Instead of accepting her seduction, Yoshida had her do chores like washing dishes and laundry. This began a touching relationship between a sad adult and a runaway high school girl.
