Rokuro Saito was hired as a gardener for the Kawarazaki family. The beautiful mistress of the house, Kyoko, who greeted Rokuro, was a widow with two daughters, Sachiko and Rei. Also living there were Rei's tutor, Kaori, a creepy male servant named Nanbara, and the maid, Misako. Rokuro was eager to take on the job, but Misako was cold and distant.
