Day 26

Sisterly Love

I found a letter in my locker. It was a simple envelope, no name, only a letter inside. I thought that maybe it was a flyer for an event.

No. It was an invitation of sorts. “Meet me at the gym after school.” Why would I? No offense, but I don’t even know who you are.

“Mako-chan!” Sakura yelled across the hallway.

I waved as she headed off with her teammates from volleyball. That’s when I stopped her.

“Ah, Sakura-chan!”

“Yeah?” She turned.

I handed her the envelope.

“Eh? That looks like a love letter.”

“Love letter?”

She smiled. “You got an admirer.”

“Me? Why?”

“Why not? Come on, you can wait for him while we’re at practice.”

Reluctantly I sat in the bleachers watching Sakura and the volleyball team practice. Not once did I see anyone look for me.

At the end of practice, I was frustrated.

“So, who’s the lucky guy?” Sakura asked.

“No one,” I said shaking my head.

Mako-chan waved to the team as they departed.

“Actually,” she said, blushing. “You’re looking at her.”
