How it feels

A 17-year-old girl named Kaoruko attends a prestigious all-girls high school in Fukuoka and is the daughter of a doctor. She feels anxious about her future, struggles to understand her friend's extramarital affair, and feels burdened by her own virginity. When a student teacher named Natsumi invites Kaoruko to join a members-only prostitution club, her summer begins to change.
