Cure He San!

(I’m 19 and recently got a break from university to go skating with my friend. I used to figure skate competitively in elementary school but quit in high school, so my skates are pretty expensive. I’m getting them sharpened since they haven’t been worn in a while. We are both extremely awkward and hate talking to people, but agree I will ask for help. Getting to the desk I notice it’s a guy I knew from elementary school.)

Me: “Hi, can you skaten my sharps?”

Guy: *blank stare*

Me: “Oh, you know what I mean!”

(He goes off to sharpen the skates.)

Friend: “Do you know what you just said?”

Me: “Probably something stupid… We went to elementary school together, so he knows I’m not actually weird.”
