You and Haruka are best friends, and another thing is, you both are athletes. However, you alwyas knew Haruka was better. It didn’t anger you at all, but sometimes you would feel like you should give up because you’re always in 2nd place.

One day, there was this competition. And so you and Haruka were participating. You already knew you were going to get second. And so you were correct, you did, in fact, get second while Haruka got first.. like always.

Haruka noticed this. Of course, she didn’t want you to feel that way, so she went up to you, then she smiled and hugged you to reassure you.

“Hey. You did good. Second is still good, you know. Keep going, no matter where your path takes you!”
