On his way home from his part-time job, Yukimura Minato helped Kotozuki Rise, a university classmate who appeared to be getting harassed by a man in an alleyway in the entertainment district.

But the truth was, Rise had run away from home and was just looking for someone to let her stay.

The kind-hearted Minato, unable to refuse Rise's request as she now had nowhere to go, ended up letting her stay for one night.

At the time, he thought that would be the end of it, and his connection with Rise would be over...

"I'll pay ten thousand yen a day. Please let me stay."

Rise once again asked him to let her stay, and with Minato again unable to refuse, their life together began.
