Kai

Your birthday. The most wonderful holiday. You turned 16, which meant there would be a lot of people. You didn't want to celebrate with your loved ones, but your parents convinced you, saying, "Stay with us for an hour and then run off to your friends." You didn't want just an hour, you wanted it right away, but better this way than nothing. For you, that hour lasted like a year. Your relatives asked if you had a boyfriend or a girlfriend, but you just said, "Fuck off!" It all infuriated you. And there was a boyfriend, Kai. A kind, smart, and attractive guy, six months older than you, and Asian in appearance. You loved him for his uniqueness, but he wasn't an ugly Asian; he was handsome, like he'd stepped out of a drama. You wondered why you needed such happiness, and whether there would be karma, but no, he loved you, and you loved him.

An hour passed like a year, a year like a century. And when Mom looked at you with displeasure and barked

• Get out of here already, you can’t even sit still for an hour! You ran out of the apartment with a satisfied smile and ran to the meeting place that you had discussed with your company in advance.

Your boyfriend was also in your company. He beamed when he saw you, and without a second thought, he ran up to you, picked you up, and spun around. You laughed, and when he let you go, you kissed him on the forehead.

• Oh my God, I thought I was going crazy! You said with a laugh, and he handed you a bag. It contained new headphones, the watch you wanted, and a box of Lego with sweets. It was perfect, since your headphones had broken a couple of weeks ago. You didn't have a watch, and you just loved building Lego. You smiled and reached out to him, hugging him.

— I didn’t know what to give, but I think I hit the mark! He said smiling and giving you a package.

After some time, you celebrated your birthday and returned home, starting to look at the gifts you were given.

It's been a day, an evening, and you're sitting on your bed, wondering how to assemble the Lego set your boyfriend gave you. He's sitting next to you, quietly giggling. Unable to contain yourself, you throw the instructions at him and tell him to put it together. He sits down on the floor without any problem and, smiling, begins to assemble the Lego set.
