'I like it. I can't help it.' Takako Hara, 32, confessed by Kotaro Ozu, 7 years younger. Kaori, Kotaro's fiancée, suddenly returns from England, where she studied abroad, just as she hugged her tightly and confirmed her thoughts.
Kaori comes to Odawara Girls' High School, where she is working, to deliver her handmade bento to Kotaro, and Takako is shocked by her existence. 'Cute. Younger than anything else. I'm blown away, in an instant ...' Kotaro tells Takako, who is worried about her brilliance and herself, 'Please let me talk to you later.' Takako, who foresaw her farewell, went home to escape without accepting her words.
the next day. Takako decides that she can't escape anymore, and invites Kotaro to her mansion to talk with her alone. However, it was a surprising word that Kotaro told Takako, who was prepared to break her farewell.
'I'm trying to break her engagement with her Kaori.'-Takako is surprised by Kotaro. 'Is it my fault?' 'There is, but it's not the only one.' Kotaro says he wants to abandon his study abroad program, which his parents gave him money, suddenly returns to Japan, and is worried about Kaori's recent behavior. The woman I'm dating doesn't make me cry, I want to stick with it. Kotaro wants her to wait because she talks to Kaori, but Takako is confused while she is happy. Kotaro replied, 'It's all,' to Takako, who said, 'I'm older and I don't know what I'm good at.'
'Isn't it all? Is there a man who says that?' The usual girls-only gathering between Yuko and Hidemi. The two argue against Takako, who leaked Kotaro's words. 'If there is, that man, a considerable playboy.' 'Otherwise, it's still a young blue man.' Takako thinks that the older she gets, the more complicated she likes, and the more she can't say 'all'.
Kaori participated in the men's association of Kotaro, Imamura, and Egawa. Kaori who is completely acquainted with Imamura and Egawa. However, Kotaro and Kaori were in a terrible mood over studying abroad and returning to Japan. The place is settled by the follow-up of Imamura and Egawa, but the distance between Kotaro and Kaori's hearts is just getting farther away.
At that time, Hidemi will participate in the cooking class of Takako's mother, Kue. Takako also appears to help her, and the cooking class is held happily. However, the situation changed completely when Reiko Kurosawa, one of the participants, approached Kue. Reiko was the wife of Kurosawa, a former affair partner of Takako. Her cooking class is noisy to Reiko who heads to Hisae in front of the participants and exposes the affair of Takako and her husband. 'Keep away from her husband anymore,' she said to Takako, and Reiko said and left.
Takako is scorned by Hidemi, who didn't know that her affair partner was her senior teacher Kurosawa, and was scorned by her mother, Kue. Takako is deeply hurt by her unfriendly situation, even though she knows she is self-employed.
An email arrives from Egawa to Takako. 'Would you like to see me today? 』. Now that there is a person named Kotaro, she is invited by Takako to talk properly. Kotaro, on the other hand, shook his heart when he knew the true reason for his return, hidden behind Kaori's cheerful attitude. ??

'I don't want you to change for me. I don't want to change you, which I like.' Takako Hara (Yuka), 32, told Kotaro Ozu (Takahiro Miura), who was seven years younger. Takako, who was attracted to Kotaro's straightness to declare 'I can never make my favorite woman cry', makes Kaori (Mayuko Kawakita) cry for herself. Kotaro is no longer the one she likes. Tell them that they will end up. 'Please give me a little more time.' Takako pushes Kotaro down. She said, 'I don't want to suffer or hurt anymore. It's worse than making me cry.'
And Takako, who touched on the kindness of Egawa (Hirofumi Arai) who cares for herself, said, 'I thought I was alone because no one chose me, but I was alone because I ran away because no one chose me. Maybe. 'I feel that way, and I decide to deepen my relationship with Egawa as a friend.
On February 22, Takako's birthday was just around the corner. Kotaro has scheduled a dinner party with Takako, who has no plans, and her fiancé, Kaori's parents, without knowing her birthday. Kotaro, who is preparing to marry Kaori, asks her mother, who divorced because of her father's affair, if she really has any regrets. Kotaro came to think 'I don't want anyone to cry' when I saw my mother who was made to cry by her affair. 'Sure, that person made me cry, but I used to make him laugh a lot,' Kotaro's mother said. 'I don't think it makes sense if you don't cry, even if you don't cry,' Kotaro couldn't say anything. On the other hand, Takako deepens exchanges with Egawa. On the way home after drinking with her, she took her taxi to her parents' house and she happened to meet her mother, Kue. Kue, who was pleased that Takako was with the man, urges Egawa to go up to her house. Takako and Egawa were confused, but it was memorable for Takako that not only Hisae but also her normally quiet father, Toshio, showed a relieved expression.

On the other hand, the topic of Kotaro, Imamura (Tomo Yanagishita), and Egawa's men's association is Kotaro's marriage. Kotaro was urged by Kaori to 'write a letter to me.' He was asked to write down what happened since he met and what he liked about Kaori, and he complained that he didn't know what to do. When he tries to write, what comes to mind is Takako's face ... Still preparing for marriage. Kotaro answers 'yes' to Egawa who asks 'I'm doing well with Kaori-chan.' 'Yes, don't turn around anymore! Run!' Imamura said so.
Kotaro sees her honeymoon pamphlet at a travel agency that went out with Kaori. But nowhere comes. At that time, Kaori actually called Takako, and she was surprised to hear from her sister Kotomi that she had a direct discussion without her knowledge.
