Yohei Miyamoto and Miyoko originally met at a matchmaking party at a family restaurant while at university days. Yohei planned to go on to grad school, and Miyoko had plans to be a teacher. However, Miyoko got pregnant. Yohei was confused, but did the honorable choice and proposed Miyoko. To support them, he took on Miyoko's role as a teacher.

The couple is forced to deal with their feelings for each other when their one child, Tadashi (Jingi Irie), gets married and becomes independent. Yohei and Miyoko only have each other as a company for the first time and are taken back to their original circumstances. Then one day, Yohei finds out that Miyoko has filled out the divorce papers, after they drop out of a book. Will Miyoko give them to him? [4][5]
