"I was happy being your wife. Now, another life begins."

Toshiko's peaceful life with her retired husband is turned upside down by his sudden death. The turbulent events begin on the day of her husband's funeral, when a stranger calls her late husband's cell phone. Long-hidden secrets about her husband are soon revealed. Her eldest son suddenly appears after eight years and demands that she inherit his estate and move in with him. For the first time in her life, Toshiko experiences profound loss. From there, a series of first-time experiences await Toshiko, an ordinary housewife. A mini-runaway, her own cell phone and planner, an unexpected affair, and a female showdown... Where will her troubled heart lead her as she faces the turbulent waves of life one after another?
