A few days before February 14th, Fran-sensei and I sat down to chat about the countries we have visited before. She told me about a holiday that took place in a country where she visited.

"Elaina, did you know? I've been to a country where on February 14th people often give Chocolate and send love messages to the person they love or cherish."

I nodded and put my hand under my chin to show that I understood what she was telling me.

"I see, what an interesting holiday!"

"I have a recipe for a special chocolate as well. Would you like to try it?"

She happily held out a piece of paper with the ingredients and recipe for chocolate and show it to me.

I read the ingredients and realized that the ingredients I bought in a certain country were exactly the same as what was written on the paper.  Is there ever a time when she and I go to the same place without facing each other?

"Fran-sensei, what do you mean by showing me this?"

I held the paper and glanced at her.  She saw my questioning gaze and then she turned her face away.

"I don't mean anything..."

I didn't say anything, but continued to look at her, making my teacher confusing, making her confess her intentions.

"It's true that I can't hide from you, I used to buy and taste Chocolate there. That special day is going to come soon, I suddenly felt craving but in this place there isn't any chocolate like that to buy"

"So you want me to try making the chocolate, right?"

Sensei silently nodded because I got hit in the heart by my words.

"I see, so see you on February 14 at location xx"

The conversation between the two girls ended there.  Each went back to our own business.

I also knew about that day because we had been to the country that she told me about.  I also bought ready-made ingredients to prepare for this day, but I didn't expect that she mention about it.

...

On February 14, we met at the rendezvous point.

I wear a purple turtleneck long-sleeved shirt, along with a long white skirt.  I wear a dark gray beret with a dark gray coat.  The suit makes me feel more mature than usual.

I arrived at the rendezvous point a few minutes before my master arrived.  She waved her hand and approached me.  Her outfit is a white ruffled shirt with puffy sleeves and tapered cuffs.  Long, solid brown dress with a belt in the middle.  The light yellow outerwear is almost my style but a bit shorter.  Unlike usual, she usually clips her hair, but today she let her hair down.

I was so dazed by her mature beauty that I didn't greet her back when she approached.  She waved her hand in front of my face to let me know, I was also startled by that and then greeted sensei back.

We go for a walk together.  Looking around, there are eyes that are directed at us.  They must also be attracted to her beauty.

An unknown man came to flirt with her.  I felt that the person was impolite, so I planned to secretly use magic to cure him a lesson.

But then she politely refused and led me away quickly to another place.

This place seems more peaceful, there are trees along with wooden benches under the position of the trees.  We decided to rest our feet under that chair.

"Finally we can get out of the situation, if I didn't stop you just now, you must be doing something to him, right?"

Teacher breathed a sigh of relief because she understood that when I was angry, it was quite impulsive.

"He looks so obnoxious, how can he flirt with a woman he doesn't know so easily"

I was annoyed, she gently patted my head until I calmed down.

"Oh my, you must be annoyed when he ruined our happy atmosphere right?"

It was true that she understood me very well, so I nodded instead of answering.  Teacher calmly sat next to me until I calmed down.

Then I took from my coat pocket a pretty little gift box to give her.

"This is the gift I want to give you for Valentine's Day"

"Can I open it now?"

"Yes, of course"

Opening the box, she saw star-shaped chocolates.  She gently handed a pill to try.  Her eyes became sparkling as she enjoyed.

"Um, delicious and sweet. My student Elaina is the best of my students"

I felt happy inside and pretended to try to see her reaction, but I was still the one who was always surprised by my master.

"I worked hard to make the chocolate you like. Do you have anything to give me in return?"

"Ah yes, sure. I already prepare for it."

With that, Fran-sensei stretched out a fist and opened it.  I didn't see anything, then she held her hand again.

"Are you telling the truth, I don't see anything in your palm."

"Yes, it's in the palm of my hand. Now open your arms and I'll give it to you"

I obeyed, her left hand was resting on mine, while his right hand was swinging around with her wand and then stopped in front of my hand.

"Hey"

A "peeling" sound was heard along with a light puff of smoke.  When the smoke cleared, there was in the palm of my hand a packet of two croissants.

"This is the Croissant that I really like! Thank you very much, Master. I am going to eat it now."

"I'm happy that you like it"

Eating two delicious Croissants that my master bought me, I felt very happy.

"There's still some crust left on your face!"

With that, she touched the corner of my mouth with her lips to take that piece of cake.  Startled, I sat back a little, my hands covering my mouth.

"What are you doing?"

Teacher smiled at my reaction and said

"I also like that Croissant, seeing you eat it well makes me feel hungry"

"You can tell from the beginning, so I can share a whole cake with you"

She giggled again at my blushing embarrassed reaction.  What a strange and unpredictable person she is.

"Happy Valentines!"

This is the greeting of two people after giving each other gifts.  I pulled on my teacher's coat lightly and kissed the same spot she did to me just now.

"Happy Valentine, Fran-sensei!"

She blushed a little, but still happily kissed my cheek.

"Thank you, Elaina!"

I was too embarrassing by her reaction

Our Valentine's Day is like that.  From aimless sulks to sweet, happy moments.  Everytime I'm by her side, it is always full of joy.
