The fresh scent of laundry pervaded Sakura’s pinky nose as she swirled among the long hanging cloths, hands delicately touching each fabric, excited at the thought of her surprise: as a matter of facts, the petite priestess was savouring the idea of doing a kindness to her big sister, Hinoka, who finally managed to partake at the academy and to celebrate her reunion, she decided to collect the laundry for her as well.
I wonder how she would react when I’ll bring her the laundry, she thought to herself as she gloated around, while picking up her own clothes and Hinoka’s clothes: she tried to put them separately, packing two different bags and carefully folding each piece with care and attention. She also put some petals inside, in between each layer of clothes, in order to make them fragrant and pleasant to the touch. Oh, I really hope she’ll like it! she lastly thought to herself as she packed the last piece and after she picked up the bags, she rushed towards Hinoka’s apartment, already wearing her bast smile to approach the bigger sister.
A single knock, then she patiently waited for her sister to open the door. “A surprise for you, my dear sister!” the petite priestess announced as she showed one of the two bags, hanging from her pale hand. “I was doing the laundry and since I saw your clothes there.. I thought that you might like to find your clothes ready and smelling nice, hehe” she giggled in excitement, as she offered the bag to her sister. “If you want, I’ll prepare some tea in the afternoon, you’re welcome to pass by!” and she bowed her head in sign of respect, “Only if you have time, of course. Have a wonderful day” and she left, merrily happy to what she just achieved and ready to pull out fresh clothes to put on for the occasion.
A few moments later, Sakura finally entered her apartment and as she placed the bag of the table, she immediately rummaged inside, eager to wear clean and comfy clothes, this, until she pulled out the first piece…
“Have the sleeves of my uniform always been this long?” she pondered as she talked to herself, staring at the clothes with perplexed eyes. She put it aside, then she pulled out another piece. Something was wrong. “Is this… from Hinoka’s closet?!”
