Plot
Sakura is a 39-year-old single woman who works in a beauty salon. One day she meets Hiroto, a young man 15 years younger, at a party; he seems to be immediately attracted to her. Hiroto is a BMX rider who supports himself despite coming from a wealthy company-owning family. He feels guilty for accidentally scarring Chiyoko's back when they were kids which caused problems in her love life. Chiyoko constantly hurts him by reminding him of the scar and what it has done to her love life. Hiroto feels guilty enough that he will do anything Chiyoko asks of him, including helping Chiyoko separate Sakura and her boss/neighbor, Rintaro, because Chiyoko is in love with Rintaro. But as Hiroto spends time with Sakura, he falls in love with her. Rintaro begins to intrude after he became aware of the relationship between his employee and her much younger boyfriend. Realizing his own feelings for Sakura in the process.
On the other hand, Sakura's best friends Miki and Shima also are going through some problems. Miki suffers from a marriage without sex and has problems with her overbearing mother-in-law. Shima suffers from a divorce and has constant one night stands and affairs with married men.
As time passes by everyone works to face the obstacles in their lives. Miki and Shima work on facing their problems in order to move on. Chiyoko learns to forgive Hiroto, decides to remove her scar and face the fact that Rintaro does not love her. Hiroto tells Sakura he loves her and finally gains his family's approval to become a Pro BMX rider. Rintaro learns to face his feelings about Sakura. And Sakura, after learning about Hiroto's real reason for dating her and that both Rintaro and Hiroto love her, first allows her heart to heal then faces her feelings. Finally, she figures out between Hiroto and Rintaro, who she loves.
