My school is rather big compared to ordinary schools in Japan and there are a lot of trees and is rich in nature.
This year, we had the privilege of a gymnastic team perform from other country.
Their performance was professional and beautiful.
To me, this annual festival is important not because watching the students perform is fun, but because I can meet my friends while taking a walk on campus.
However, this year I couldn't find my friends to talk to, so I was a little sad, and decided to leave school a lot earlier than other people did. It was still noon.
I walked down to the gate, saying good bye to the guard and left. When walking down the street about 100m off the gate however, I found a very familiar guy walking from the other side. He was one of my best friends. I started talking, tellimg him I was only heading to a convenient store to get Lunch, and started walking in the opposite direction with him as if nothing happened.
We talked a lot until the whole festival was over. The performance of the team from other country was held in the afternoon.
And met a lot of friends and went to a restaurant for dinner with friends.
This day is special, but meeting this guy on the way home made the day even more special.
