Higehiro: After Being Rejected, I Shaved and Took in a High School Runaway

An office worker meets a runaway schoolgirl, despite their age difference and personality clashes, forming an unexpected bond.

Tokyo office worker Yoshida has been crushing on coworker Airi Gotou for five years until finally scoring a dinner date with her. However, when the confession is rejected due to drunkenness and disappointment, he stumbles home only to find a high school girl sitting on the side of the road. The girl offers to seduce Yoshida in exchange for staying the night at his apartment; he rejects her advances but invites her in anyway. Sayu Ogiwara is the high school girl who ran away from her Hokkaido home six months ago and is currently living a life of sexual exploitation by offering herself in exchange for basic necessities such as food, laundry, and home care. Yoshida proposes a different arrangement: she takes on the responsibility of looking after his home and provides the essentials, which earns her the opportunity to stay at his apartment indefinitely. This sets the stage for a potentially platonic bond between two individuals from vastly different backgrounds. Will this relationship survive?
