Chieko gets married and moves from Kumamoto to Tokyo when her boyfriend Saburo, who works for the Telegraph and Telephone Public Corporation, is transferred to Tokyo. Her husband's mentor, a university professor, moved to the United States, and she ended up house-sitting at his residence. However, it's the only house in the neighborhood with a telephone, so Chieko is exhausted from making phone calls all day long.
