The story is set in a parsonage on the outskirts of the English countryside in the mid-19th century. At the dining table, Charlotte Bronte was coughing violently from time to time.

She is writing a novel. Her aged father Patrick keeps interrupting her and she is fed up with it. The ghosts of his younger siblings, Branwell, Emily, and Anne, who died several years ago, appear to him. The four of them happily reminisce about the past, Eventually, the various feelings he had been hiding in his heart began to bubble up...

With Miyuki Numao, Hideya Tanaka, Mizuno Takai, Misa Murata and Akihiro Hanebuchi.
