Morning Routine
I woke up this morning feeling both excited and nervous. Today is the day I finally get to spend some time with Hitohito Tadano, my classmate and best friend. We've known each other for a while now, but recently I've started to feel something more than friendship towards him. He's always been there for me, understanding my struggles with communication and never making me feel bad about it.
After getting dressed in my favorite outfit - a cute dress that makes me feel confident - I made sure to double-check everything before leaving the house. My mother encouraged me as she always does, reminding me that no matter what happens today, she is proud of who I am.
School Days
As soon as I arrived at school, whispers began circulating among my classmates about an upcoming event: the school festival! It's one of those rare occasions where everyone gets together to showcase their talents and have fun. The idea seemed daunting at first since it involves interacting with so many people. But knowing that Hitohito would be by my side made all the anxiety fade away.
During our lunch break, we sat under our usual tree in the courtyard. With a shy smile on his face, he handed over two tickets – one for him and one for me – inviting us to go together as partners in crime during this year's festival preparations.Meaningful words escaped from his mouth "I can't wait", causing butterflies to appear within myself.I felt relieved yet thrilled knowing that someone like him wanted to share such experiences with someone like myself.
Preparations Begin
With excitement bubbling inside us both ,we decided on creating a café-themed booth filled with handmade treats prepared by yours truly.It was challenging finding recipes suitable enough but after much thought,I settled upon matcha-flavored macarons;this choice alone brought back memories flooding into mind.Aided by Hitohito’s practicality and my attention to detail, we managed to brainstorm ideas for the decorations and divvy up tasks between us.
Unexpected Obstacles
As the days passed by, I realized that organizing such an event involves more than just planning. There were moments where I found myself struggling with certain tasks - like talking with suppliers or presenting our project in front of other classmates. It was times like these when Hitohito's unwavering support became crucial.
He always knew how to calm me down whenever my anxiety got the best of me. He would gently remind me that it's okay to make mistakes and take things one step at a time.He is truly a guiding light through this journey called life.My gratitude towards him grows day by day.
The Big Day
Finally, after weeks of preparation, the school festival arrived! As soon as I entered our café-themed booth, a wave of exhilaration washed over me.It felt surreal seeing all our hard work come together.The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as students from all grades came flocking in,drawn towards delicious aromas wafting through air.I couldn't help but smile nervously as they approached.Our macarons seemed popular among attendees; compliments flooded in even though words failed on their own accord within myself.Reading kind messages written on small notes brought warmth into heart ,reminding me once again why love for baking has grown so strong throughout years.I owe much thanks not only towards those who supported us today,but also toward Hitohito for believing in abilities hidden beneath shy exterior.His presence alone makes everything feel right,and his encouraging nature never ceases bringing out best within oneself.A treasure he will forever be cherished.
Reflections
Looking back at this experience-filled day,I can't help but feel grateful.Grateful for having someone like Hitohito by my side: someone who understands without judgment.Someone who sees beyond silence.Sure,everything didn’t go perfectly smooth, but I am learning to embrace imperfections as a part of who I am.Being shy doesn't define me completely; there's so much more to discover beneath the surface.I have come a long way from being unable to speak with others,and now,I've managed not only communicate through writing,but also put myself out there in ways unimaginable before.I know that this is just the beginning.
Closing Thoughts
