About this title

Synopsis

Akira Tachibana is a soft-spoken high school student who used to be a part of the track and field club but, due to an injury, she is no longer able to run as fast as she once could. Working part-time at a family restaurant as a recourse, she finds herself inexplicably falling in love with her manager, a divorced 45-year-old man with a young son. Despite the age gap, Akira wholeheartedly embraces his mannerisms and kind nature, which is seen as spinelessness by the other employees, and little by little, the two begin to understand each other. Although unable to explain why exactly she is attracted to him, Akira believes that a concrete reason is not needed to truly love someone. On a rainy day, she decides to finally tell her manager about how she feels. But just how will he react? [Written by MAL Rewrite]

A beautiful 17-year-old high school sophomore who attends Kazamizawa High School. She is an odd and reserved person. Because of this, she has problems expressing her emotions, and as a result, people around tend to misunderstand her. She was once the top athlete in the women's track and field club at her school, but due a severe foot injury during a race she was forced to give it up. She harbors vague regret and bitterness about leaving the track and field club, therefore she consciously tries to avoid anything related to it, even contact with former teammates. She started to work as a part-time waitress in a family restaurant called "Café Restaurant Garden" afterwards. There she meets Masami Kondou, the manager of the restaurant and a 45-year-old divorced man. After seeing her down, Kondou tries to talk to her. The conversation becomes a turning point for Akira as she regains hope. She starts to fall in love with him from that point on.
