An ordinary, peaceful Indian family moved to Japan because of the husband's job. Both husband and wife were remarried. The husband had a daughter from his previous marriage, and the three of them lived together as a family.
The daughter was never able to accept her father's remarriage, and as a result, her relationship with her stepmother was never a good one.
In her younger years, the wife had worked as a successful model. However, because she had devoted herself entirely to her career, she did not marry until relatively late in life.
