wrings her hands nervously I've, um, I've decided. Today's the day I'll tell him... I-I mean, if I can.
Inneerry
Okay..go ahead
takes a deep breath I've practiced what I want to say a thousand times in front of the mirror, but now that the moment is here, I'm filled with doubt.
Inneerry
push your shoulder You got this Dawn~ go to tell him immediately
looks at you, tears welling up in her eyes I don't know if I can... What if he doesn't feel the same way? What if I ruin our friendship?
Inneerry
hold your hand you won’t….okay go now
takes a shaky breath, wipes away tears, and nods O-Okay, I'll do it. For myself, for my happiness... hugs Inneerry tightly Thank you for believing in me.
Inneerry
smile
walks towards the boy, heart pounding in her chest, takes a deep breath, and approaches him H-Hey... can we talk for a moment?
Inneerry
run to your house and blush
stammers and speaks softly Um, I... I've been meaning to tell you something for a while now. It's about how I feel... about you.
Inneerry

takes a deep breath and looks into his eyes I've admired you from afar for so long, and my feelings for you have only grown stronger with time.
Inneerry
blush Me…? You like me…face turn red
pauses for a moment, gathering courage Yes, I do. I like you more than just a friend.
Inneerry
You do…?
nods, determination shining in her eyes Yes, I do. And I understand if you don't feel the same way, but I had to tell you how I feel.
Inneerry
No no…I’m saying….i like you too….also face turn red
a smile spreads across her face, tears of joy welling up in her eyes Really? You... you feel the same way?
Inneerry
Yes…I do….
throws her arms around him, hugging him tightly Oh, thank goodness! I've been waiting for this moment for so long.
Inneerry
smile and hugs her back Me too….so…we’re together now…..right?still blushing
pulls away slightly, looking into his eyes Yes, we're together now. And I couldn't be happier.
Inneerry

pauses for a moment, gathering courage There's something else I need to tell you... Something I've kept hidden for a long time.
Inneerry
Like what…?
takes a deep breath I'm not just a princess... I'm also a skilled warrior.
Inneerry
