Taro’s parents died when he was young and he was then raised by his grandparents. There are supporters of the small candy store including Taro's neighbor and bath house operator Akira (Kyusaku Shimada) and Taro’s friend Hiroki (Ryo Katsuji). While eating candies, they talk about silly things with Taro. Taro meets again Reiko (Machiko Ono). She is a childhood friend.
