The school festival was quickly approaching, and Jun was feeling a mixture of excitement and nervousness. He was looking forward to spending time with Yuki, but he was also worried about Aiko's reaction. He knew she wouldn't let him forget about her.23Please respect copyright.PENANAgo1dqJqhGU

Yuki, sensing his anxiety, took his hand and squeezed it gently. "Don't worry, Jun," she said, her voice soft. "We'll be fine. We'll have fun."23Please respect copyright.PENANAZQ2Pfn1Y7X
23Please respect copyright.PENANAbBNcJhRyon
Jun nodded, but he couldn't shake the feeling of unease. He had been feeling a little off-balance lately, and he couldn't help but wonder if he was being too cautious, too afraid to let himself enjoy the moment.23Please respect copyright.PENANAYF8YogaqDS

The class was busy preparing for the festival, and Jun was surprised to find himself enjoying the process. He was always a little shy, but Yuki's presence seemed to give him a boost of confidence. He was even starting to enjoy working alongside Hana, who was surprisingly good at crafting.23Please respect copyright.PENANAqgefPa6vrS

"You're actually pretty good at this, Jun," Hana said, her voice filled with admiration. "I never knew you had such a creative side."23Please respect copyright.PENANA7lgYbWV4cK

Jun blushed. "Thanks, Hana," he said. "I guess I just needed a little inspiration."23Please respect copyright.PENANAxh8AgUsAB4

He glanced at Yuki, who was busy decorating the booth with colorful streamers and balloons. She looked so happy and carefree, and Jun couldn't help but feel a surge of love for her.23Please respect copyright.PENANA0gEpvatL8X

As the days passed, Jun found himself spending more and more time with Yuki. They would talk for hours, sharing their dreams and fears, their hopes and anxieties. He was starting to realize that he had never felt so comfortable with anyone before.23Please respect copyright.PENANA79nvHb3uhd

One evening, as they were walking home from school, Yuki stopped and turned to face him.23Please respect copyright.PENANAAmrFqplNJp

"Jun," she said, her voice soft. "I have something to tell you."23Please respect copyright.PENANAmm7AfcIFqU

Jun's heart skipped a beat. "What is it?" he asked, his voice a little shaky.23Please respect copyright.PENANADEODMNQP8o
23Please respect copyright.PENANA5dYEnoicPC
Yuki smiled, a warm and genuine smile that made Jun's heart melt. "I love you, Jun," she said. "I've been wanting to tell you for a long time."23Please respect copyright.PENANABMEJF6yNbt
23Please respect copyright.PENANAXqXE8kYfKe
Jun's eyes widened in surprise. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. Yuki, the girl of his dreams, had just confessed her love for him.23Please respect copyright.PENANAB3KIWENjiE
23Please respect copyright.PENANAvPwWDCvsWy
"I... I love you too, Yuki," he said, his voice barely a whisper.23Please respect copyright.PENANAhiEwsYvtXp
23Please respect copyright.PENANAQfvYzTaoRa
Yuki reached out and took his hand. "I know," she said. "I can feel it."23Please respect copyright.PENANARKDyydtL5L

They stood there for a moment, holding each other close. The world seemed to fade away, and all that mattered was the feeling of love and connection between them.
