Satomi
4th of the Summer, 1st half Solar Day, 50th year of Homura

Today was...surprisingly pleasant.

It didn't start out too pleasant though.

At training, we had to practice double endurance sets again.

All of us had our partners spot us on how many complete sets we could do.

I got paired up with Satomi, the new girl.

A cheery person who I was able to befriend right away.

So anyway, all us girls did our sets.
Peng-peng was amazing, she did 40 whole sets in under 30 seconds.

Chise, who isn't even that strong, did 30 complete sets.

In fact, everyone was able to complete about 30 or over 30 sets.

But me

...

It was horrible, I did only 8

That's right 8.

8

8

8

8

Fortunately for my the life of me, Master Zaimi wasn't watching at all, but when she asked Satomi how many I was able to do, I just about turned red all over, all the other girls giggled and laughed, and at that moment I felt sick like I was going to die.

That's when it happened.

Satomi told Master: "Um...she did 15"

Master Zaimi still scolded me for not being able to endure as much as I was supposed to, but as I looked onto Satomi's face, she gave me a quiet, kind smile.

Satomi saved me.

...even if she had to lie...she still saved me.

It feels good to have someone, even if it's just only one friend, to look out for you.
