Dear Diary,

It’s seven in the morning, and I’m standing outside the sports hall, a little worried about Joan being late. She’s incredibly punctual, even when she’s had an event the night before that has cost her a few hours of sleep. Everyone on the team is already here except her.

Joan has never been late. Until today.

We live close to the sports hall and, usually, we’re even the first ones to arrive. But, as with everything, there’s always a first time. Today, we’ll be the last ones to walk in.

“Or maybe I’ll be the only one who’s late.”

I looked at the clock once more and, just as I decided I would wait only five more minutes, I saw Joan turn the corner.

And she didn’t look good.

Rose: Wow, Joan... Those dark circles! Did you go to bed really late last night?

Joan: Don’t even ask. I couldn’t sleep properly.

Rose: I guess the party went on for quite a while after I left.

“If only that had been the problem...” - Joan thought, remembering her night and everything that had happened.

Without saying anything else, we headed to the sports hall locker room.

I was eager to give her the answer to her question from yesterday. However, when I saw how tired she looked, I assumed she wouldn’t be interested in the subject right now.

I couldn’t have been more wrong!

Joan: So, Rose, do you have an answer?

Rose: I do! But I’d rather we talked about it later.

Joan: Come on! Just tell me if it’s a yes or a no.

Rose: Yes! Let’s give it a try.

Joan: Great! Do you already have a name for the brand? New designs? Do you need materials...?

Rose: Calm down, Joan. We’ll talk properly after practice.

Joan: Wow! That’s the best news of the day!

Rose: The day has only just begun.

Joan: I know. But nothing can beat this news. My little Rose actually said yes to one of my ideas without me even having to insist much. I love it!

Rose: Well... I like your ideas.

Joan: Not when they involve you.

Rose: Come on, it’s not that...

Joan: I know... You’re shy. But together, we’re going to do a great job. And who knows? Maybe we’ll even make it to the runways, just like you used to imagine. Remember?

Rose: Let’s take it slowly. One step at a time.

Joan: Okay, okay. Baby steps.

Joan was genuinely excited, full of questions and ideas about how we could introduce the new brand to the world.

Our brand!

Even though I was scared, I pushed my fears aside. I didn’t want to take that smile away from her.

Mum always told me to chase my dreams. To believe in them, work hard, and never give up, because when we truly give our dreams a chance, we can make them a reality.

And that’s what I’m going to do.

Give myself a chance.

I’m going to face whatever lies ahead with courage, grow, and learn a little more with every step.

Maybe I don’t know exactly where this path will take me.

But, for the first time, I feel ready to find out.

With love, Rose
