Her family moves to Tokyo when her father changes his job. Tenka stays for a short period of time with her grandfather who is an eager rice farmer, living at Igune, forest in the middle of vast rice paddies of the Sendai plains. After graduating from high school, she moves to Kichijyoji in Tokyo to live with her family in a house which is on the site of a temple owned by her grandfather's old friend, Suzuki Shozo. On the site, there is also a small nursery school ran by Shozo's wife, Yoshiko. Tenka gradually starts to think of becoming a nurse who looks after children. It is eventually revealed that Tenka's family and Suzuki Shozo's family has had a strong connection for generations. Tenka finds that she herself is engaged to Shozo's grandson, Ryunosuke according to a promise between her grandfather and Shozo. The heroine is played by Ema Fujisawa who is 21 years old. She was selected from 2,367 applicants. Locations include Sendai, Miyagi and Musashino, Tokyo. See less
