Isaku Senagaki lost her parents at five and was raised by her grandfather, a yakuza boss, making it difficult for her to live a normal life. Hoping for a fresh start, she enrolls at distant Otawa high school to hide her background and experience ordinary life. However, her overprotective guardian, the 26-year-old Keiya Uto, follows her there undercover as a student. As Isaku tries to build the normal life she's always wanted, Keiya's constant presence complicates things. Spending more time together, though, begins to stir unexpected feelings in both of them...
