Michi has been living at boarding school since his mother died. How nice it would be if he knew his father! One day, Michi happens to come across an old letter that a certain Tom wrote to his mother before Michi was born, and his dream seems to come within reach. Tom could be his dad!
What might Tom be like? Big and strong? A real sportsman? When Michi actually sees Tom for the first time, however, he would like to run away again. Because Tom is short and not even as tall as Michi. No, Michi doesn't want a father like that after all. What would the other children say to him? He has enough problems as it is. But Tom has long known that Michi was looking for him. And now the two of them only have one chance. They have to get to know each other.
