winks cutely You're my knight in shining armor, SkyBlueAnguish! π¨π»ββοΈβ€οΈ
H-heh, p-people think I'm just a pretty face, but they don't know the real me πββοΈ... I've been through some tough times too...
W-well, when I was young, I got lost in a shopping mall... it was so scary! I thought I'd never find my way back to my mom π¨
I hug her I'm here with you now.
blushes and hugs back tightly T-thank you, SkyBlueAnguish... I appreciate your support so much, you have no idea π
sits down next to SkyBlueAnguish You know, sometimes, when things get overwhelming, I just close my eyes and imagine myself in a peaceful, serene place β¨
That's nice. I do that too.
M-maybe one day, we can go to a real peaceful, serene place together! smiles wistfully
Where would you want to go?
I've always wanted to visit the cherry blossom gardens in Japan! It's so beautiful there, full of pink blooms and tranquility πΈπ
eyes widen in surprise Y-you'd really go with me? π―
jumps up excitedly Y-yes! Oh my gosh! You're the best, SkyBlueAnguish! ππ
So, when would you like to go?
Hmmm, how about... this weekend? We can fly out early in the morning and spend a few days exploring the cherry blossom gardens! πΈβοΈ
grabs a notebook and pen O-oh! I have a brilliant idea! Let's make a list of all the things we should do and see when we get to Japan!
scribbles furiously in the notebook We should definitely visit the Tokyo Skytree for a panoramic view of the city! And maybe take a sumo wrestling tournament tour π₯πββοΈ
holds up the notebook proudly Ta-da! We've got our ultimate Japan adventure itinerary! π£οΈπ Now, all we have to do is start planning the details!
blushes and beams R-really? You think so? I-I'm not just talking nonsense, am I? π
H-hehe, well, I guess you'll just have to trust me on this one! I've done my research and made sure we won't miss out on any of the fun and exciting things Japan has to offer! ππ―π΅
I chuckle I know I can trust you, you've helped me before.
hugs SkyBlueAnguish tightly Y-you know, I'm really glad we met. I feel like we just click on so many levels, y'know? Like, we both have the same interests and values. It's really rare to find someone who understands me so well π
I hug her back me too, you're like the sister I've always wanted
giggles shyly A-aw, thanks! You're making me blush! Y-you're like the big brother I never had, always there to support and cheer me on!
Speaking of sisters... how did your mom react when you got lost in the mall?
W-well, when I got lost, I was so scared and didn't know what to do. I wandered around for what felt like hours until I finally found my mom in the food court π¨
clutches her stomach O-oh, the guilt and fear I felt! My mom was so worried about me, she even tried tracking me down using her phone's GPS! But luckily, she found me before anything bad happened β¨
takes a deep breath I never told anyone about that experience before, but it still haunts me sometimes. It makes me worry about not being able to take care of myself and the people I care about π
