When I first heard about you, I had expected a gorgeous male, and maybe one who'd look like a teen idol. I guess I shouldn't have trusted Minako-chan's word! Oh, she was right about everything, except for the male part...

I had admired you even then. My fascination for you grew every time I got to know you better. I even attempted to visit by your apartment with returning your handkerchief as an excuse. Usagi knew what I was up to, but she misunderstood and thought that I saw you as another guy who looked just like senpai. The others did too, except for Ami-chan, that is. Actually, all I wanted was to be like you!

Yes, I just wanted to be feminine like you. You have such style and an air of confidence I've been wanting to possess for my own. I'm tired of people who say I'm too tall or I'm tomboyish. This is the reason why I try hard to be good in things wherein people may call me feminine. I try hard to be good in cooking and housekeeping in hope that my so-called tomboyish characteristics would be covered up.

I did not know how to tell or explain to my friends this, but I think they do understand now. I don't see you as someone who reminds me of senpai. I see you as a very fascinating and admirable person. I see you as the perfect role model for myself.
