25-year-old Moriyama Mikuri has an advanced degree, but has had no luck
finding a permanent position. She's been living with her parents and
doing temp work, and her latest job is doing housework for a single
salaryman, Tsuzaki. Mikuri longs to start a career in her field, and her
Aunt Yuri, who has had success in her professional life and who regrets
never marrying, also wants Mikuri to find love.
When Mikuri
learns that her parents are planning to move to the country, she
realizes her time is running out. She still has had no luck starting her
career, so it seems she will have no option but to move to the country
with her parents. She finds another option in moving in with Tsuzaki,
who doesn't want to lose his housekeeper. To deal with the scandal of
their living together, they get married--though just on paper. Now
Mikuri starts her unusual new life, as a woman looking to start her
career and as a new 'wife'!
