Satsuki and Aya work as movers specializing in women's moves. They are lesbians and live together. Satsuki was raped by Atsushi, a fellow worker at a security guard job, and has since developed a fear of men. Aya gently comforted Satsuki, who became withdrawn due to the trauma. Aya, too, has a painful past. She was deeply in love with her boyfriend, Kotobuki, but to him, Aya was nothing more than a convenient woman, and he easily abandoned her. Since then, Aya has wanted to be strong enough to protect someone. One day, during a break, Satsuki and Aya encounter Noriko, who is doing cleaning work. Noriko had worked with Aya before. Later, Satsuki and Aya are invited by Noriko to see her street performance as she dreams of becoming a musician. Seeing Noriko's determination, the two decide to save money to buy a deserted island to live on.
