About

In 2024, at a modern high school, Aiden was known as an intelligent boy who always finished his work early. He loved reading, solving difficult problems, and helping classmates with their studies. Yumi was a shy girl who secretly loved Aiden. Whenever he entered the classroom, she would smile quietly and look away whenever he noticed her. One rainy afternoon, Yumi dropped her books in the hallway. Aiden immediately helped her pick them up. “Are you okay?” he asked. Yumi nodded shyly. “Yes. Thank you, Aiden.” From that day, they started talking more often. Aiden discovered that Yumi was kind, thoughtful, and funny once she felt comfortable. Yumi admired Aiden’s intelligence, but she liked him even more because he was always kind to others. One afternoon, Yumi finally gathered enough courage to leave a small note inside Aiden’s book. It read, “I’ve wanted to tell you this for a long time… I really like you.” Aiden looked across the classroom and saw Yumi nervously smiling. After class, he walked over to her. “You don’t have to be shy around me,” he said with a smile. “I like spending time with you too.” Yumi smiled happily, and their beautiful friendship began.
