Summary[]

An average boy named Tatsuya Nagare is living a boring and uneventful life. One day, something would twist the fate of his life in ways he couldn't possibly imagine. He discovers a lost girl discarded and sleeping in an unknown back-alley and saves her from a pack of rabid dogs. He takes the girl home and asks who she is. She has no memories of her own life prior to being in the alley other than her name being Liliana. With the mysterious young woman Liliana being a part of his life now, the two would begin to face all the obstacles and troubles they encounter in the world; enemies to fight against, crises to deal with and battles to win. It is not going to be easy; how can the two face such ordeals together? How can they survive? How far will their friendship go? How will they discover their true feelings for each other? These are the "hows" that the everyday nobody and the unknown mysterious woman will answer for themselves, living together in the same house.
