==Plot==
After losing her mother at age three and her father at age four, Maiko (Ishikawa Rika) has been lovingly raised by the childless Mr. and Mrs. Ozaki and has grown into a straightforward and cheerful 17-year-old. She lives a warm and normal life in a family that manages to be genuine without any blood relations. Elsewhere, Risa (Fujimoto Miki), who lives with her mother who runs a small restaurant, is a clumsy seventeen year old girl who can only express her heart by running away from home or refusing to go to school. After the two are introduced by a mutual friend, the two girls meet and become unlikely friends.
