Synopsis

Before a tragic accident took their parents' lives, Kanami got along well with her older brother. However, following the incident, her brother became mean, distant, and often abusive. Suffering alone, little Kanami cries at a park, where she meets a young man who offers to keep her company whenever she is feeling sad. Desperate to accept this act of kindness, she agrees to have the young man stand in for her brother. However, she insists that she will pay to rent him for every period of time they spend together.

Presented with an opportunity to relieve her broken heart, Kanami begins to relive the happy moments she had with her biological brother through her rental, all while desperately searching for ways to mend her relationship with the only family member she has left.

After her parents died, her brother broke down, tried to sever all ties with her, and isolated himself from the world. She then meets a man (Makoto) who resembles her brother, and he wants to fill the gap left in her heart of her real brother. In order for Kanami to ensure she doesn't replace her brother with Makoto, she insists on renting him out as a big brother.
