Fourteen-year-old Kyo and nine-year-old Asu are sisters living alone. Their father had abandoned them after accumulating a gambling debt and their mother had already passed away. Despite these unfortunate events, they do not wallow in grief but live happily and energetically.

The law on minimum working age changed a few years ago so now Kyo can work even though she is still in junior high. She works as a newspaper carrier and sometimes as a tutor to support the two of them. Meanwhile, Asu does housekeeping chores such as cooking, cleaning the apartment, and even handling the household finances to help her elder sister. There are kind people around them, such as the landlord and the novelist Saegusa, who watches over the sisters.

Although they experience a lot of troubles and hardships, they are comforted by the presence of one another close by.

This is a heartwarming story illustrating the daily life of Kyo and Asu in a one room apartment of a 40-year-old building which rent is 26,000 yen a month.
