Summary (as is written on WikiPedia) 
Mira Munakata is a freshman who, in the first scene of the OVA, is going to his first day at Hakuou High School. He is in love with his father, Kyousuke Munakata, and the two of them are involved both in a romantic and sexual relationship. He is confused by this relationship, however, and struggles with it throughout the film.
Trouble arises when Mira finds adoption papers and realizes that Kyousuke may not be related to him at all. This causes much distress for Mira who had already thought that Kyousuke was cheating on him. One woman in particular, the beautiful actress Mitsuki Utsunomiya, is rumoured to be marrying Kyousuke. In the end, Mitsuki turns out to be Mira's mother.
In the meantime, Mira is chased by other school friends such as Takayuki Utsunomiya, a third year from high school, and his best friend Kazuki Hino, who are both also in love with him.
Mira finds next that his father was injured on set and was taken to a hospital. He arrives at the hospital and is scared to see his father unconscious, however the wounds his father has are minor and Mira is assured Kyousuke will be fine. Mira's father's assistant tells Mira that Kyousuke in fact never cheated on Mira, he only acted like a flirt to make him jealous and less shy of their relationship; and that Kyousuke loves him more than anything.
Happily attempting to move on with his life, Mira later discovers that the famous actress Mitsuki is his mother and that she and Kyousuke are in fact brother and sister. The siblings were left parentless at an early age and thus took care of each other unconditionally. It is revealed that Mitsuki became pregnant at a young age. While she wanted to keep the baby and raise it herself she was given an offer to go to Hollywood and have a chance in an epic film. She chose to give up Mira, and not long after Kyousuke also became famous. Mira finds out that he has a step brother Takayuki (the boy who plucks a sakura petal off Mira's head). Takayuki is in love with Mira but is forcing his interests more to help his stepmother (Mitsuki) marry Kyousuke so she could become even more famous.
When distraught with the news that his lover and father might marry Mitsuki, Mira runs away from home and goes to where he and his papa used to look at the clouds. He eventually is found by Kyousuke and he explains adoption papers, Mira is relieved that his lover, although not his biological father, is not completely unrelated to him. It turns out that Kyousuke is his uncle and everything is right again for the two. Kyousuke assures Mira he will not be marrying Mitsuki as she is his older sister.
Personal Opinion -
This is one of those animes that you have to be careful with. It is "Shota" and can be viewed the wrong way by people who aren't into anime like you are. That does not mean that I like or prefer shota, I personally try and stay away from it. However, when I saw this, I was in college and was at the beginning of having freedom to look for yaoi so I was looking for ANY guy on guy action I could find.
I watch it more for the fact that the uke is VERY uke and the seme is VERY seme! :) And there is a TON of Hurt/Comfort in it which is my weakness in any anime series but more so with shounen ai/yaoi series. So I was able to over look the shota part and enjoy it for what it is.
