I te raruraru a Sumire, te wahine tuarua a Koichi Nezaki (Mr./Ms. Rich Dad), ki tōna pātahitanga ki tana hunaonga, o Takashi, me tōna oranga pō me tana tāne, i a ia e noho ana i tētahi oranga rangatira, hari hoki. A, i tērā taha, e noho ana a Takashi i te mamae i ia rā me tana hunaonga, me te hungawai ātaahua, ko Violet. I tētahi rā, ka poke a Sumire, a, ka whakaaetia e Shigeo Yamamoto (te pāpā rawakore, a Tēnā./Ms.), he kaimahi noa iho no te kamupene o Koichi, a, ka toromi i roto i tana mahi. E kitea ana hoki a Takashi i roto i tōna kaha, a, ka whakararurarutia ki te "whakaaro o te wahine" a Shigeo. I muri iho i tērā, ka tīmata a Sumire rāua ko Takashi ki te whai pātahitanga ōkiko.
