letter twenty- nine: the way you walk


Dear T.S.,

I don't really know why this stands out to me, it just does. Normally, the way someone walks isn't that big of a deal but I can't help but be interested wherever I pick up on your little habits when you walk.

Like the way you are always slightly leaned back, making yourself look relaxed, even if you're freaking out.

Or how when you walk outdoors your hands are out of your pockets, but when you're inside at least one of them is in your jersey jacket, or whatever pocket is available.

Or the way when you're excited or a bit more happy that day, your toes touch down then your heel, and the steps are a bit faster. Not to mention the slight bounce in your step.

Or how in contrast to that, when you're trying to intimidate a player on the other team, you do the exact opposite. You heavily place your heel down and then your toes, and your steps are slower and more dragged out.

The point is, I like the way you walk, and the little quirks that come with it.

It's just something that I find myself paying attention to, just for fun. I like finding your little habits, and most show when you're walking. It's like a calming method for me. Just watching you and seeing the little things that never change.

Some days, I get really down on myself because I do like you. I can't help but feel like sometimes I'm being selfish and negligent of the rest of my family and throwing away opportunities to help them out. Like I'm getting distracted and not working as hard as I could, you know?

But, if I can find the little things about you that never change, surely I haven't changed. I still want to help my family, and a schoolgirl crush doesn't make me selfish. Right? Right. I know I'm still the same Y/N that came to Shirtorizawa almost 3 years ago. Same goals. Nothing has changed.

And you help me remember that. I'm reminded of it every time I see you subconsciously slip your hand in your pocket when you walk inside. I'm reminded of it every time I see the added bounce in your step when you're on your way to class.

Thank you Satori.

Sincerely,

Y/N L/N
