In this small corner of town, they gradually fall in love.* Tsubaki, who recently moved into town due to a job transfer; a gay couple living next door, Toyohashi and Takatsuki; Tsubaki's elusive senior, Azuma. While bewildered in an unfamiliar surrounding, Tsubaki's naturally rigid heart slowly unfastens for the "first time", and he starts knowing what love is.
