It was Christmas Day. you felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. Each chime of the doorbell brought a surge of anticipation as you waited for Kazuha and the other guests arrival. You recalled last Christmas when she had handed you that love letter, the words still lingering in your mind.

“I keep my distance, you still catch my eye, I love you, I mean it.” The memory sent a flutter of butterflies in your stomach. Suddenly, the doorbell rang again, jolting you back to reality and the sound of laughter and chatter outside.
