In the middle of his grief, office worker Yasuaki (Kentaro Nagasaki) takes an indefinite leave of absence. However, he does not try to leave his house at all and his solitude takes his mind to unhealthy thoughts as he is being haunted by the memories and images of her recently deceased girlfriend, Asami (Kanami Takasaki). These images and memories show up to him like a ghost. In an attempt to change scenery, he bumps into Misako (Yui Kitamura) who drops a folding knife during the encounter.
