"KANAAAA-CHAAAAAN!"

Before Kana even realized what was happening, Sakura barreled into her, wrapping her in a bear hug so tight it nearly knocked the damn oxygen out of her. Kana stumbled back a step, arms flailing.

"Hey, hey, you're gonna break me-!" Kana started to whine, but Sakura had already pulled back, her face glowing with excitement. She pulled a tiny gift box from behind her back. "Happy birthday, Kana-chan!"

Kana's eyes lit up instantly. She snatched the box from Sakura's hands, and she tore it open. Inside nestled a phone charm-white and purple, with a tiny grumpy-looking white cat dangling at the end. Her jaw dropped. "No way...! This is so cute!"

Sakura, giggling, proudly held up her own phone. Hanging from it was the exact same charm design, except hers was pink and turquoise, with a cheerful pink dog. "We matchy!" She announced, beaming from ear to ear.

Kana's lips wobbled before she threw her arms around Sakura. "Thank you, thank you, thank you! It's perfect!"

The two girls laughed together, clinging onto each other.

As they finally left the school gates side by side, Kana kept staring at the charm in her hand. "This is seriously the cutest thing ever. Where'd you even find these?"

Sakura giggled, swinging her bag as they walked. "I went out with Daddy, and we found this little charm shop. He made mine, and I made yours!"

"Daddy?" Kana blinked at her best friend. "You have a dad?? We were both fatherless until my old man suddenly came crawling back.."

Sakura nodded enthusiastically. "Yeah! You're not the only one who found her dad, you know!"

Kana just hummed, still a little confused but letting it slide as they stepped out of the school grounds together.

Parked just outside was a familiar car. Sakura gasped and pointed. "Oh, Y/n-san is here! You think your mom's taking you somewhere?:

Kana shrugged. "Well, usually, yeah. We do the same thing every year."

But in her heart, no matter how many times they did it, the tradition never got old. She loved it.

"Hey, sweethearts." Y/n greeted from the driver's side, leaning against the open door.

"Mom!" Kana rushed to her, hugging her tightly while Sakura followed behind. Kana tilted her head up hopefully. "Can Sacchan come?"

"Why, of course. I already asked her mothers for permission," Y/n answered with a knowing smile.

"Wait-I can?!" Sakura squeaked, bouncing in place. Kana grabbed her hand and pulled her along, dragging her into the car. Y/n just chuckled, shaking her head fondly before sliding into the driver's seat.

"So..." she teased as she buckled up. "Guess where we're going?"

"JOLLIBEE!!" Kana shouted, eyes sparkling. Of course it would be her favorite place.
