Love Letter

A New Letter

Sakura sits within the local café as she continues to write on her blog. She still reminisce the times she spent writing letters to Haru within her free time. But that's all in the past now, she no longer can write letters to Haru. Recently the hole that she uses to send letters to Haru is now mysteriously gone with no traces of it being there in the first places. A few minutes later, her friends arrives and she spend the afternoon with her friends as she tries to get caught up with the past that she can longer change.

After spending nearly the whole day with her friends, Sakura decided to head back home as it was getting late. She recently picked up cycling as her newfound hobby to fill up the blank free time she now has. She rides her bicycle all the way back home. As she was riding her way back, she caught a glimpse of a someone that resembled Haru. She rubbed her eyes and that figure is nowhere to be seen. "I must be hallucinating. I'm tired after all", she thinks to herself. She continues her ride back home safely with no problems happening along the way.

The next day, Sakura goes to school as she usual does and arrives earlier than she usually does. Thankfully she wasn't alone. Someone was already in class but she didn't recognized him. Sakura decided to walk towards the mysterious boy and started a conversation with him.

"I have never seen you before", she says to the boy who's looking out of the window.

"Oh, yeah. I'm new here", he says to her.

"Oh cool. My name's Sakura. What's your name?", 

"My name's Sora. Nice to meet you, Sakura", he says to her with a warm smile that reminds her of the one time she got to see Haru. She shrugged the thought out of her head as she doesn't wanna start crying in front of her new classmate.

The two continued to have a wonderful conversation and getting to know each other before the first bell of the day rang and people flooded into the class.

"Hey Sora"

"Yeah?"

"Mind exchanging letters with me? Like pen pals"

"Sure"

Sakura heads back to her desk as she has found a new pen pal that she can write letters to. She was happy but not as happy as Sora who is happy to find someone who didn't find him weird even after talking all about the things he likes which usually makes people stay away from him.

After the bell rang signaling lunch time. Sakura came over to Sora's desk and gave him, his first ever letter from him. Sora also gave Sakura a letter that he took time to write for her. The two seemed happy exchanging letters before they bid each other farewell as they go to eat their lunch.

Sakura spent her lunchtime with her friends within the cafeteria while Sora is sitting alone on the school rooftop. Enjoying his bento box that his mum packed for him. The two seem to have quite different personalities to one another. While Sakura is a bubbly, happy go-lucky going girl who always socialize with everyone. Sora is a introvert who spends most of his time alone but does enjoy the company he gets once in awhile. The two then began to read each other's letters in private.

"To Sora. It's nice to get to know you. If you need any help around the school, just let me know cause I'm always free! By the way, I like your keychain. It reminds of the clouds in the skies which actually connects with your name. I hope we get to exchange more letters in the future and get to know each other better. From Sakura.", Sora reads with a tear coming from his eyes and a smile on his face knowing he truly made a genuine friend on his first day at his new school.

"To Sakura. I never really wrote a letter to someone before but I'm giving my best shot. It was to getting to know you and you sound like a wonderful person to be around with. Don't mind me if I'm always sitting alone. I'm kind of used to it. By the way, we never got to talk about hobbies. So, do you wanna talk about them next time? Maybe in a conversation so it wouldn't be too awkward exchanging letters just to talk about hobbies. Other than that, I hope you have a wonderful day. From Sora", Sakura was genuinely happy to finally have a new pen pal but more or else a new friend she can write letters to again. To her, Sora sounds like a fun person to be around even though he sits alone. She wants to make him feel happy and have more friends in school. 

At the end of the day after hearing the last bell ring. Everyone heads back home. Sakura quickly rides her bicycle as she notices that Sora is also riding a bicycle. "Wanna ride back home together?", Sakura asks Sora. "Sure thing", he says with a faint smile on his face. The two then began to ride their bikes together back home and little did they know that they're going the same direction all the way back home as the two find out that they're actually neighbours.

Sakura recently heard she's getting new neighbours but didn't expect it to be her new classmate, Sora. "Well what a surprise huh?", Sora says to her. "Yeah". The two then bid farewell as they enter their homes and tell their parents all about the new person they met at school today.

Later that night, Sakura exchanged one more letter with Sora which asked him for his phone number. Sora gladly wrote back with his phone number attached. The two can now freely text each other when they're not close to each other to send letters. The two went back to their beds and texted to each other for the rest of the night before falling asleep.

"Goodnight Sora", Sakura says while sending a sleeping cat gif to him.

Sora giggled, "Goodnight Sakura"
