The story is about the shy Machi Tsukahara, who is in a library room and took a book and by turning the pages, a page slipped off. On this paper was written “Sakura Chiru” (which can be translated like “cherry-tree falling”). But who wrote this paper? A classmate?

From M-ON Music, article about Sakura Saku's theme song, 君に出会えてよかった ( Kimi ni Deaete Yokatta ) by Inoue Sonoko : http://www.m-on-music.jp/0000114889/
君に出会えてよかった ( Kimi ni Deaete Yokatta ) roughly mean "Glad I meet you", correct me if I'm wrong.
It is a song about school graduation.
Short explaination - on the last day of school, remembering the friends you have made along the way - something like that.
