Maria, who seems to be gluttonous and lazy, yet keeps protecting the safety of her grandparents and mom through some various kinds of secret ritual. Only Natalia, the daughter of a Russia woman who married a church worker through mail order, understands Maria. They are very good friends. Knowing that Natalja bears Russia in her mind constantly, Maria intends to give her own savings to Natalja as her travel fund. Just at this time, Natalja disappears. And Maria's grandpa, who likes to pretend being dead to scare people, really passes away. Maria's rituals fail in the end. Now, she only wants to know whether Natalja has said goodbye to her with some ritual when she left?
