Covered only with a towel, Miyazaki Kazuhiro looks the alleged intruder up and down, who has just sneaked into his home. The wolf has met his prey!

Kougami Ayumi dreamed of being a punk rock solo star, but ruined, she was relegated to working as a waitress in her aunt's bar. Nonetheless, a fateful encounter with her first and only love, Takagi Makoto, opens her eyes: she's wasting her life chasing a childish dream, and in her epiphany, she abandons auditions,  producers, her guitar, her songs, and her city, Tokyo.

Two years later, Ayumi has finally returned to her beloved home, now transformed into the adult Makoto wanted her to be. Naively, she believes she can laugh it off, win him back, not knowing what awaits her behind the door.

Life mocks her, and she smiles at misfortune.
