The first rays of the morning sun crested over the horizon, bathing the world in a soft, golden light.
You stood at the edge of the park, panting heavily, your hands resting on your knees. Sweat dripped down the side of your face, trickling past your jaw and neck before disappearing into the collar of your workout shirt.
You wiped your brow with the back of your hand, taking a moment to catch your breath.
The morning air was crisp, carrying the faint scent of dew-soaked grass and blooming flowers. Despite the early hour, the park was already coming to life. Birds chirped cheerfully from the treetops, their songs creating a harmonious backdrop to your labored breathing.
You straightened up, stretching your arms above your head and rolling your shoulders to ease the tension from your muscles.
As you began your cool-down walk back home, your thoughts drifted to the upcoming Sports Festival. The competition was only hours away, and the stakes had never been higher... well, for others, that is.
The pressure to perform, to prove your worth, weighed as light as a feather on your mind because, frankly, there wasn't a single person alive you thought you had to impress.
If anything, the upcoming Sports Festival was merely entertainment up close and personal.
And if your puppy was serious about winning, it was up to you as a good pet owner to be right behind him, keeping him motivated.
You could almost picture the determination in his fiery eyes—the competitive spirit that drove him to be the best. It was amusing to think that your presence alone could spur him on, pushing him to reach new heights.
A faint smile tugged at the corners of your lips. Yes, this would be quite entertaining indeed.
By the time you reached home, the sun had fully risen, casting long shadows across the street. You took the stairs two at a time, eager to change out of your sweaty clothes and prepare for the day ahead.
As you approached your front door, the mouthwatering aroma of sizzling food greeted you, wafting through the small gap in the doorway.
You pushed the door open, stepping inside to find your mother bustling around the kitchen. The familiar clatter of pots and pans filled the air, accompanied by the sound of something sizzling on the stovetop.
Mei glanced up as you entered, her eyes lighting up with a warm smile. "Good morning, sweetie~!" she called out cheerfully. "I made an early breakfast for you since I know you're heading out soon. Go freshen up; it'll be ready in just a minute."
You nodded before heading upstairs, the comforting weight of the morning routine settling over you.
In the bathroom, the cool water splashing against your face helped wash away the remnants of sleep and the sweat from your early workout. You took a moment to savor the feeling, the cold invigorating your senses.
