Synopsis

At lunch break, Watanuki, Himawari and Domeki launch into a conversation about astrology. When Himawari coyly tells Watanuki, "our zodiac signs complement each other", he is overjoyed and kneels before her. After school, Watanuki goes to Yuko's shop to work as usual. He tells Yuko about the conversation, but she suggests that this prediction was not reliable. Later, they leave the shop so that Yuko could teach him the real astrology
