After their parents divorced, mother remarried, and father ranaway, the remaining two members of Ikeuchi family – college student Masaki and his younger sister, elementary schooler Minami – along with Masaki's roommate and best friend Kanda, barely support themselves under the same roof.

Minami, a precocious 9-10 year old girl who has a crush on a much older male and yearning for some affection.
