This Is How To Be In Love With You

The university’s exam period ends tomorrow so I’ve got a day off for the first time in a while. I’ve been careful about doing stretches properly after I get out of the bath. I’m just copying something I saw though, so I wonder if I’m doing it right, I don’t really know. Whatever the case, I have to make sure I’m always ready.

Day. 2

On a morning when it looks like something new’s about to start, make sure you’re ready with a café late

I went to a coffee shop I saw in a magazine. I’ve always wanted to become “a regular” for something like this. I only just arrived in Tokyo recently, so everything seems so new and fun. Now if only there was love on the horizon too there’d be nothing else to say. Just kidding.

Right:

With a mature tone, even in the middle of study you can attract attention for a new meeting

On the terrace at university, when I met eyes with that person I knew it must be fate. I might have been born purely so I could one day end up together with him. Or not, am I just overthinking things?

Day. 4

point: Hair Style

I ran into the person I’m interested in at the bread shop. This has to be fate, right? In the end I ended up buying the same bread as he got, but I maybe don’t need this much… > < I wasn’t thinking about the calories.

Day. 5

point: watch

Left:

Today I started talking to him by chance, and he told me that his hobby is running. Without thinking I took a chance where I saw it and told him “I’m interested too!” so now we’re going to go running together. Even though I’m really bad at exercise…… I’ve never run so much in my life. Totally exhausted.

Don’t lose focus even when exercising! The pastel tones mean not only do you look ready to go but also give off a cute oneesan appeal.

Day. 6

point: simple nail

I started a part-time job at the flower shop I’ve been really interested in. Would you believe it, the person I’m interested in walked past. I wonder if he’ll come in someday. I’m now even more excited about going in to work. Not just that, even. Every day is exciting.

Day. 7

point: bag

At the cafe on my day off, reading a new book by an author I like. I’ve loved romance novels since before, but now they’re even more interesting. The feelings described on these pages are no longer just an “aspiration” for me. I truly know them now.

Wearing a cute jacket over your shoulders is something you can pull off at any time of year! An orange bag matches the summer atmosphere.

Day. 8

Plan of Action: Wait and ambush him in casual dress

I’m waiting for him until his part-time job is over. It’s a bit cold at this time of night, but I don’t mind at all. After all, I have something I absolutely have to tell him.

Day. 8

The result of the late-night park date is……?

In the middle of the night at the park, we talked with each other for hours. While talking to him, though, it felt like no time had passed at all. You’re wondering what the result was……? That’s a secret. You can probably tell the answer just by looking at my face though, right?

１：５２

Right:

It’s my first time going on a date to a bar, so my heart was pounding. I found out today that he’s actually not very good with alcohol. Or actually, maybe it’s just that I’m strong? He was super cute even while drinking himself unconscious!

For a date at the bar, be careful to make sure your face can be seen! Mix silver and gold accessories for added charm, and style your hair while wet for a more adult look.

We went to one of the filming locations for a movie we both like! This sort of thing can only happen in Tokyo huh! It really must be fate that even our taste in movies lines up. I feel like a totally different person to before I met him……

Day. 11

For a date when you’re walking around you definitely want pants and low heels so as not to spoil the day! Wear fake glasses for a change of pace to give off an intelligent air♡

I was invited to his house for the first time. It was my first time going to a man’s house, I was so nervous I didn’t eat anything all day…… I don’t actually remember much!

Day. 13

I was invited to go to a relative’s wedding. Brides are always so beautiful, I’d love to be like that someday too. Ever since I was young, I’ve dreamed of being able to get married to the person I love. Maybe it isn’t just a dream any more though.

Since you’re dressing up, it’s a time to go all out with the pretty styling. The pale pink dress and fur coat are a coordination for someone dreaming of the future.

Day. 14

An outdoor cinema date with him under the stars. How stylish! A French film I like was screening that I really, really wanted to see, so I begged him to come too. A girl really is at her cutest when she’s in love.

Just because it’s outdoors doesn’t mean you can relax too much! Even when picking out a date outfit to protect you from the cold, you still want to protect that loveable silhouette.

Before he comes home, I’ve cooked so it’ll be ready waiting for him. I’ve kept notes on all his favourites, and I’ve been practicing cooking them! I can’t wait to see his surprised face when he sees.
