I was standing in front of the huge, white building and trying to take it all in. I felt my stomach knot. Was it always this big?

I remember waiting by the large sakura trees for my brother's volleyball practices to finally end, so we could walk home together. I would never tell him that -since he is a pain in the ass- but I really enjoyed those times. Especially in Spring when the sakura trees where blooming.

Those few weeks with light pink flowers blossoming on those thick branches made every little thing look magical, so it didn't really seemed that intimidating to me back then but now everything feels so overwhelming.

There wasn't anybody else here yet. Yokatta I sighed. I started twirling my long (h/c) hair in between my fingers to calm my nerves. This was something I did as long as I can remember. It helped me cool down and sort my thoughts. Although it was quite a giveaway of how I was feeling for people who knew me well. Not that there were a lot of them anyway.

Stop that! Negativity begoneeeeee!

Everything is going to be okay. Everything is going to be fine.... Right?

I looked around me and people started passing by me from all directions, some giving me weird looks.
How long have I been standing here? First day and you managed to look like an idiot, good job Y/N.

I adjusted the collar of the white blouse and straightened the grey skirt.
The school uniform is really not doing me any favors, I look like a potato sack I groaned.

To not be noticed any further, I mingled my way into the crowd and set foot in one of Tokyo's most famous high schools, Fukurodani Academy.
