Akari has lived alone with her father ever since her mother died. She spends her days working at the local confectionary, doing household chores and taking care of her father. He is an unsuccessful gold digger and a drunk. He spends the majority of his time and Akaris money at a small bar down the street from their house. Each night, he eventually drinks enough to get into a fight and gets kicked out. Thats when Akari picks him, takes him home and puts him to bed. It looks like things couldnt get any worse. Until, Akari finds out about her fathers illness.
