SAKURA

Today is the day. It's finally the Spring Festival and I'm now heading to our school.
The weekend just flew by fast and nothing interesting really happened–well nothing's really interesting about me. Like what we planned, we went to the store Daisy told us about during Saturday.

We rented out some stuffs and went to the school the next day to decorate our booth. It's was just a tiring day if you ask me but overall it was fun. So now, I'm walking in the hallway and there's already  lots of booths and other gimmicks the students thought of.

The field kinda looks like a flee market, there's a lot of stuffs and things going on, like there's a mini art gallery– probably from the arts class, there's a DIY jewelry booth, and there's a flower booth too.

Wooah I haven't seen such beautiful flowers– I haven't seen flowers up close for years! I miss seeing them up close but I would just end up sneezing! How disappointing!

" Sakura!"  Someone shouted my name not so far away from the flower booth I was just eyeing earlier. It's Daisy and Lily, holding small bouquet with variety of fresh flowers. Good thing I bought my handkerchief and my anti allergies!

"Wow! You look lovely in that dress!" Daisy said before hugging me wrapping her both arms around my neck causing the flowers to be placed near my nose. I could feel my eyes starting to water and my nose starting to itch.

"Thank you" I said before sniffing a little to prevent me from sneezing before continuing. "..you look amazing too" and she finally broke the hug. 

" Good morning Lily" I said now facing Lily's side before kissing her cheek.

" Good morning.. " she said then kissed my cheek too.

".. you don't look well. Are you okay?"

" Yes....I uh just having a little allergy" I said pulling out my handkerchief out of my bag.

" You're allergic to flowers?" Lily asked.

"Yes" I said after sneezing. "sorry" I continued.
"Gosh! I'm sorry Sakura! I didn't know! Let's bring you to the clinic!" Daisy said panicking.

"No, no it's okay" my voice sounded different because of my nose so I cleared my throat before speaking.

"I'm okay, I have my meds with me. I'll just go and buy some water." and I sneezed again.

" Let's go! I'll buy you water!" Daisy said before dragging me to the cafeteria.

"You okay now Sakura?" Daisy asked after I took my anti allergies.

"Yes, much better. Thank you. "

"So, let's go? We're already running late" Lily reminded us. While we we're walking in the hall, a guy holding a bouquet of different shades of pink tulips is being pushed by a guy and another saying

"Go! You're so coward!" "She's almost here! You should give that to her!" something like that.

I thought he was being bullied but I guess that was his friends cheering and giving words of encouragement for him to be able to give the flowers.

"How sweet, would someone give me flowers too? But nah, I would just end up sneezing in front of that someone and It would just be a mess" I thought before shaking my head a little. We we're close to our classroom door when that guy called my name–or am I just hearing things again? I stopped but Daisy and Lily already entered the classroom.

The guy I was pertaining to earlier is now standing in front of me while tightly holding the bouquet.

"Oh no! Not again!" I thought, holding my breath as I tried to stop sneezing.
