Long before the events of Don't Call Me Dirty, Hanao
Kaji and Ryuuji Mita were close friends... When Ryuuji is left to raise his son
Shouji as a single father, Hanao steps up to help him out. At first, their
family life is happy and content, but Hanao's true feelings for Ryuuji become
more and more difficult for him to ignore. The pressure of staying closeted
eventually becomes too much to bear; Hanao leaves, choosing to run from his
feelings and his fears of somehow "messing up" Shouji's life when he starts
getting teased at school for having two dads. Years later, when he comes
home to care for his aging father and ends up advising Shouji on his blossoming
relationship with Hama, Hanao realizes it's time to face his own past... and his
future.
