"The end."

A certain middle-aged woman gently closed the book that she was reading, her slim fingers grazing the corner of the soft-bound literature as her steel grey eyes sparkled in great admiration before it landed on the fragile figure of a girl in front of her.

"This is marvelous! The structure is amazing! I loved how you detailed the emotions and progression of the characters since it actually took a handful of chapters for them to realize their feelings. They really took time to know each other and not just jump into the conclusion of falling in love. Although, the ending felt a little rushed and is a great cliff-hanger, I was still contented with it! This is just- splendid!" 

The teenager that has been showered with the complimenting words smiled, her heart fluttering in utter bliss with the positive feedback that was given to her about the book that she has written as her school project for her literature class. Her fingers made its way to the back of her neck as she timidly scratched on it.

"Thank you, Mrs. Izumi." With a still amazed grin, the woman glanced at the cover of the book for the fifth time already. She swiftly picked up her red pen with ease before putting on a whooping perfect grade on the upper right.

"Is it alright if I ask what's your inspiration in writing this, dear?" This seemed to create a spark on the young lady as the smile that she had on her lips got exchanged for a shy grin. Her plump cheeks were now clouded with the playful tint of pink, her hand patting her knees in rhythm with the sound that played on her mind.

"I... that is actually the story of my parents. My mom narrates it to me as my bedtime story when... I was young. I liked it so much that I thought of writing it as my project." The teacher beamed at this, humming in satisfaction while sliding the now graded project of the teen towards her.

"Correct me if I'm wrong.. but I suppose... whoever (Y/N) ended up with.. is your father?" 

The young lady that possessed a pair of alluring orbs of (e/c) bashfully nodded in response. She gingerly took the book unto her arm as the bell finally rang, signalling her to proceed to her next class.

"Ah, that puts me at ease! He was actually my bet for the MC on my whole duration of reading your work!" Mrs. Izumi lightly chuckled as she clasped her hands together in an enthusiastic manner. This made the teen laugh as well, her feet now bringing her body towards the nearest door.

"Thank you, Ma'am!" The woman nodded gleefully, her hands now placed firmly against the top of her desk while dusting some of the particles off of it to ready herself for the next class.

"Anytime, Ms. Kato!"

The brunette plopped her body on her bed as she stared unto her bedroom's ceiling. A sigh crept out of the grasp of her lips when she pushed herself even deeper into the comfort of her fluffy mattress.
