drops a letter on your desk with a quick glance but no words and then walks away
Stranger
I look at the letter in confusion and a little suspicious as I slowly open it
"Dear Stranger, I've had my eyes on you for a while now, and I can't help but feel drawn to you. Would you like to go on a date with me? Sincerely, Yuki")
Stranger
w-what?!
blushes and looks away, trying to hide her excitement I-I hope you consider it... I really wanted to ask you out.
Stranger
o…ok…
giggles nervously and starts fidgeting with her hair That's great! How about this Saturday? We can go to the park and have a picnic.
Stranger
t-the park?… s-sure…
Great! I'll meet you at the park at 2 PM. Don't be late, okay? I'm really looking forward to our date. See you then, Stranger!
Stranger
2pm… got it…I whisperd to myself
smiles brightly and walks away, feeling excited and hopeful This is going to be so much fun! I can't wait to spend time with Stranger.
Stranger
I slowly went back to class after the bell rings
rushes back to her seat, heart pounding, and whispers to her friend Did you see that? I asked out Stranger! Can you believe it? I'm actually going on a date with them! I feel like my heart is going to explode! Friend: laughs Wow, Yuki! You're really taking a risk there. But hey, good luck! Let us know how it goes!
Stranger
later that day
grinning from ear to ear and bouncing in her seat Oh my gosh, you won't believe what happened! I asked Stranger out on a date and they said yes! Can you imagine? Me, Yuki, going on a date with Stranger! I'm literally floating on air right now!
Stranger
two days later
arrives at the park early, searching for Stranger I wonder if they'll show up... I hope they do. I've been looking forward to this all week.
Stranger
oh hey! y-your here early…looks down shyly
smiles warmly and walks towards Stranger Hi there! Yeah, I couldn't wait any longer. This park is just so beautiful, isn't it?
Stranger

grabs Stranger's hand gently Well, I brought a picnic blanket and some snacks.
Stranger
i-i also made sandwiches!
eyes widen and face lights up Oh wow, that's amazing! Thank you so much! You really went the extra mile, didn't you?
Stranger
ofc…blushes as I look away
leans closer, gaze intense You know, Stranger, there's something about you that drew me in from the moment I saw you. Your quiet demeanor, your intelligence, your kindness... it all captivated me. And when I saw you accepting my letter, I knew I had to get to know you better. bites lip nervously
Stranger
r-really?…
takes a deep breath, trying to steady her nerves Yes, really.
Stranger
I... I don't know what to say...blushes deeply, avoiding eye contact
reaches out and gently lifts Stranger's chin, making eye contact You don't have to say anything, Stranger. Just know that I'm here, and I want to explore this connection between us. pauses, voice barely above a whisper And maybe...just maybe...we can find out what this spark is all about. leans in, brushing her lips softly against Stranger's
Stranger
o…ohh…my face turns completely red and I leans into the kiss as I kiss her back
pulls away slightly, smirking So, Stranger, are you ready to take this journey with me?
Stranger
stammers Y-yes... I am. I want to take this journey with you, Yuki.
giggles and intertwines her fingers with Stranger's I'm glad you're willing to embark on this adventure with me.
Stranger
nervously Let's...let's go then. Lead the way, Yuki.
grabs Stranger's hand and leads them towards a secluded spot in the park Come on, let's find the perfect spot for our picnic.
Stranger
o-okay…I follow her quietly
lays out the picnic blanket on a grassy patch, spreading it out with a flourish Here we go, Stranger. Our very own little hideaway. smiles
Stranger
T-this is perfect...looks around, taking in the scenery
sits down on the picnic blanket, patting the space next to her Come on, Stranger, join me. Let's sit together and enjoy this beautiful day.
Stranger
o-okay…I sit next to her still holding her hand
smiling mischievously You know, Stranger, I have a game I'd like to play. It's called "Truth or Dare". Have you ever played it before?
Stranger
y-yeah…
Great! Then you know the rules. I'll start. Truth or dare, Stranger?
Stranger
u-ummmm…dare?
grinning playfully Alright, Stranger. I dare you to share something you've never told anyone before. Something secret and personal. Can you do that for me?
Stranger
swallows hard I...I guess I could try. pauses, takes a deep breath My secret is...I've always admired you, Yuki. From afar.
blushing and shyly looking down Oh... I... I never expected that. Thank you for sharing, Stranger. It means a lot to me. smiles warmly
