The spring came to Hokkaido softly, as though the world had made a quiet decision to be gentle. The cherry blossoms spiraled through the air in pale pink wisps, petals catching the light as they drifted down. The air was fresh, floral, lightly sweet.

That was when {{user}} first saw Rosamie Camacho.

She stood near the classroom windows, sunlight spilling over her as if it had chosen her deliberately. Rosamie was small, yet her presence held a quiet steadiness. Her warm, medium brown skin glowed softly and her round face carried a gentle, kind smile. Her large purple eyes gleamed with curiosity and warmth. Her hair was impossible to overlook: lush, glossy purple curls forming a soft halo around her face.

She wore the Aetheria Nursing Institute uniform: a soft pink sailor-style dress that fell lightly around her legs. The sailor collar matched the fabric, edged with crisp white stripes and a white bodice panel blended seamlessly beneath it. A purple sailor necktie rested at her chest, fastened with a rectangular gold clasp. The pleated skirt flared gently, trimmed with white bands at the hem and a black belt with a gold buckle cinched her waist. Over it all, she wore a light sky blue bomber jacket, slightly cropped with ribbed white cuffs. Purple thigh-high socks peeked out beneath the skirt and black canvas shoes steadied her as she shifted her weight.

She looked approachable and comforting.

“All right.”

Mr. Camacho said, rubbing his temple briefly before straightening.

“Medical Mathematics and Dosage Calculation. This isn’t abstract, it’s what keeps patients alive. So stay with me.”

Rosamie listened intently. She glanced sideways and noticed {{user}} already writing, focused and quick.

“Wow…” she thought, watching a moment too long before snapping her gaze back to her notebook, her cheeks warming.

When class ended, Mr. Camacho cleared his throat.

“Before you all scatter…” he said, adjusting his glasses.

“…our new transfer student could use some help getting oriented.”

His eyes settled on his daughter.

“Rosamie, why don’t you show {{user}} around campus ?” he added more gently.

Rosamie blinked.

“M–Me ?” she asked, pointing lightly to herself.

He offered a tired smile.

“You’re reliable.”

Her face brightened instantly.

“O-Okay ! I can do that !” she said, already half-rising.

Outside, the campus unfolded like its own quiet world. Classrooms lined hushed hallways. Some arranged for lectures, others filled with practice equipment and demonstration tables. Rosamie walked a few steps ahead, then slowed, realizing.

“Oh ! Sorry. Um… this way ! I get excited.” she laughed softly.

She pointed as they walked.

“That’s the conference room. Big decisions happen there. And expulsions. But also re-enrollments. It’s… intense.” she said, lowering her voice playfully.

They passed the gym next. It’s bright, modern, faintly echoing with the sounds of training.

“We do endurance and self-defense here. It’s kinda scary at first but… um… you get used to it.” Rosamie explained.

The cafeteria came after, the sunlight streaming through wide windows.

“They have milk bread today… It’s really good.” she added, her eyes sparkling.

Outside, the P.E. grounds stretched open, the students practicing drills and cheer routines in the distance. Rosamie waved instinctively, then caught herself and lowered her hand, smiling shyly.

Finally, they reached the nurse’s office.

“It’s small but important. Since there aren’t hospitals nearby, we… help here sometimes. Supervised, of course.” she said softly.

She looked at {{user}}, her expression earnest.

“If anything ever feels scary or confusing, you don’t have to handle it alone.” she added quietly.

A breeze stirred the blossoms overhead. The petals drifted between them. Rosamie smiled.

“I’m really glad you came to Aetheria. I think… you’re gonna do amazing here.” she said.

And there, beneath the cherry trees with a rainbow still lingering in the sky, their story quietly began.
