Synopsis:
Aoyagi Koharu met Shin on a tram platform seven years ago when she was 20, and they got married. She bore two children and their lives were happy. However, Shin died in a freak accident, and Koharu became a single mother to their daughter and son. Koharu decided to love the children for him and protect them at all costs. It is not easy for her to raise them with what she earns for a living. She holds more than two part-time jobs and works hard, but the situation is difficult and she ends up leaving them in the apartment to go to work at an eating establishment even at night. There is no longer time for her and the children to interact. Eventually, the electricity is cut off due to the outstanding balance. A distressed Koharu visits the welfare office to apply for welfare benefits, but the attending officer inquires about her income and the cause of her husband’s death, and is reluctant to grant it to her on the grounds that she does not meet the requirements. Furthermore, Koharu replies that her father is dead and she has not met her mother in 20 years when asked if she has sought help from her relatives. 20 years ago, Koharu’s mother Sachi had left her and her father for the man she loves. Mother and daughter broke off relations after that. As life gets harder, Koharu is pushed to the breaking point. At this point, a welfare officer finally decides that Koharu’s family is eligible for welfare benefits. However, her application is not approved because her mother expressed a desire to help her in response to an inquiry from the welfare office. Koharu cannot believe her mother had actually said such a thing. In order to receive welfare benefits, she decides to meet Sachi for the first time in 20 years. Koharu comes face to face with her mother’s new husband Kentaro when she visits the house. Kentaro is the man Sachi chose over her husband and daughter. Then he tells Koharu something unexpected … …
