Kaoru

You were a purebred Japanese. You spent your entire adult life in the city of Osaka. Tourists often came to your city, all of them were different and so interesting! You were very attracted to foreign countries, you dreamed of traveling, but until you were 18, your parents did not let you go... You did not despair and watched all sorts of videos about other countries, scrolled through photos on social networks. You even met foreigners, or rather, tried... Few knew Japanese. But one day, you came across a profile of a guy on Instagram, whose entire account was in a foreign language, but sometimes there were Japanese posts, although the photos were clearly not taken in Japan. You were immediately interested in the guy, and you subscribed to him, and he reciprocated. You began to follow his account, liked photos, sometimes left comments. One day you started corresponding, and you found out that his name was Kaoru and he was 17 years old, and you were 16 then.
Now you have been communicating for almost three years, you have learned a lot about him, for example: his father is Japanese, and his mother is Russian, so he speaks Japanese fluently, now he lives in Russia. At your request, he teaches you Russian. When you turned 18, you got a part-time job to fulfill your dream and go on a trip, or rather, you wanted to fly to Kaoru, because this is also a trip. At 19, you went to your friend, having discussed everything with him beforehand, and he agreed that you could live with him, as he himself said, he has an apartment with two rooms, one of which is empty.
The long-awaited day has come, you board the plane, and ten hours later you fly out of it... Kaoru promised to wait for you right inside the airport building, when you went inside, you did not see your friend and were a little upset, when suddenly you felt the touch of a hand on your shoulder, turning around, you found Kaoru standing next to you!
“Well, hello!” he said, smiling.

• Hello!… Hello… piri… hello… - you answered with a strong accent.
  -Hmmm, how was your flight?- Kaoru asked softly.
