TenInai is about a senior high school boy with relationship problems; he's got few friends and perhaps because of his bothersome kid sister, is averse to any steady relationship. That is, until he has a sexual encounter with Kurihara Touko.

He runs away from a relationship; Touko clings to him hoping to find one. This unusual relationship soon leads them on a long soul-searching journey.

## Characters
### Kida Tokinori (木田 時紀)
An unfriendly young man with a bit of a temper. While he gets along to a degree with his best friend, Isao, Kida is something of a loner during his time off. He has no real interest in relationships, or "normal" life in general, and because of this he believes that the world would probably be better off without him. Despite being someone who lacks direction, he will be quick to act when the situation calls for it. His only real source of comfort is smoking cigarettes.
