Taken from koiiro@Wordpress's ~in Winter~ summary and review:
Shiranui Kazuki is a 3rd year student in the star-reading department of Seigetsu Gakuen. He is the student council president, pushy but really did his best in making Seigetsu Gakuen a better place for the students. Usually Kazuki would rather joke around with Tsubasa than doing any actual work, resulting in Hayato getting angry at them. His “strong” speeches at the opening ceremonies each year often scared off the freshman. Kazuki recruited Tsukiko and Hayato immediately as soon as they arrived in Seigetsu Gakuen. The next year, he recruited Tsubasa during the opening ceremony. Being a 3rd year student, his graduation is drawing closer.
Kazuki has the special power that enables him to get a glimpse of the future through star-reading. He joined the star-reading department in Seigatsu Gakuen to further develop his power. However, everytime he used that power it would inflict wounds on his body. Kazuki had been using his power to help the people around him such as Hayato, Tsubasa and Tsukiko herself. Even though he’s a 3rd year student, Kazuki is actually two years older than Tsukiko and Hayato. Rumors had it that he was absent from school for quite some time during his 1st year, so he had to repeat the grade.
Tsukiko later found out the reason through Oushirou, who is close friends with Kazuki. In attempt of saving Oushirou’s life, Kazuki fell off the 3rd floor veranda. He broke his leg and had to be hospitalized for two months, resulting in having to repeat his first year. Oushirou also stayed back a year, probably to accompany Kazuki, though he didn’t say it clearly. Later Oushirou also revealed the truth about Kazuki’s family. His parents died in an accident when he was small, and there was a time when Kazuki blamed himself for that. Though he could see the future vaguely, he wasn’t able to prevent their death. He was then raised by his uncle, who owns a shrine nearby. Kazuki had a happy family, so he was trying to create the same atmosphere in the student council.
Even though they were close, Tsukiko felt that there was still a barrier that separated Kazuki and her. She eventually realized that she loves him and confessed, but Kazuki rejected her. Tsukiko tried to give him a thank you chocolate on Valentine’s Day, only to get rejected again. She started avoiding him after that, but after a light accident that caused Kazuki to be hospitalized, Tsukiko decided that it’s okay even if he sees her only as a sister. Being by his side is enough for her.
Then one night, Tsukiko stayed at school to finish her work. When she was looking for some materials in the reference room, a teacher who did the night patrol locked her in, not realizing that she was inside. Tsukiko was scared being locked in such a dark place, but as she called Kazuki’s name, he came to get her out. Tsukiko then lost conscience in Kazuki’s arms, where she finally recalled her true ‘first meeting’ with Kazuki.
During her childhood days, Tsukiko often played in a shrine nearby. She remembered the name, Shiranui Shrine. One day she met a boy who was about to fight some delinquents, so she stopped them from fighting. Tsukiko told the boy that fighting is not a way to prove one’s strength. If his heart is strong, then he will surely become a strong person. The boy then introduced himself as Shiranui Kazuki, and the two often met up in the shrine to play. One day, the delinquents from the other day locked Tsukiko in a dark and cramped storage. Tsukiko was scared, and by the time Kazuki came she lost her voice due to her fear. Kazuki apologized that she had to experience such a thing because of their closeness, and told Tsukiko to forget him. Tsukiko had a high fever afterwards, and by the time she recovered, she didn’t remember Kazuki. But even though she really did forget him, he was always watching over her.
Tsukiko woke up in her room to find the student council members taking care of her. They soon left Kazuki and Tsukiko alone, and she told him that she remembered everything. That time Tsukiko didn’t want Kazuki to go, but her voice won’t come out. After hearing the truth, Kazuki asked if she was really sure to choose him. Tsukiko said yes, and Kazuki finally confessed that he’s been in love with her ever since their first meeting.
Some days after that, Kazuki returned home to talk about his future with his uncle. After he got back to the dorms, he told Tsukiko that he wanted to attend university and then study abroad. He wanted to broaden his view and knowledge before settling down to succeed his uncle’s shrine. Since they will be apart, Kazuki asked if Tsukiko is okay with that. She answered that she will always cheering for him to reach his dreams.
