Hotaru Hinase is a girl who never quite understood love and was resigned to the possibility of never falling in love. One day, while chatting with a friend at a cafe, Hotaru sees Hinanoi, one of the most handsome boys in school, being rejected by his girlfriend. On her way home, Hotaru comes across Hinanoi sitting alone in the snow. In a gesture of empathy, Hotaru extends her umbrella to the boy.
