The "girls-love comedy" story centers on Ayu Shirakawa, who has run away from home. Through her cousin Miyako, Ayu is introduced to the author Yukari Ebiwara (penname Hikari Ebiwara), and starts a part time job as her caretaker. Yukari often slacks off by playing games and going on trips, but Ayu really enjoys her new everyday life. And as the two live together and grow closer, Ayu starts to have feelings she never had before.
Hirasaka's previous novels that inspired television anime and several manga series include Haganai: I Don't Have Many Friends and A Sister's All You Need..
