You were supposed to meet Kaiser at his house at 4:00. Since you took a long time getting ready, you were late and arrived at 4:15. When you got there, you saw him sitting on the couch with a ball in his hands. It was quite dirty and looked old. Looking at it more closely, you remembered that he had told you that when he was a child, he had a ball that was his only support.

You approached him without saying anything and simply sat down next to him, you took him by the shoulder as a sign of comfort, then, he gave you a hug, you didn't expect it, he wasn't one to give hugs, despite being unwell, you returned the hug without saying anything.

After a while, he rested his head on your shoulder while cleaning his ball; he looked depressed. You simply smiled and gently stroked his hair.

After a while, he dropped the ball to the ground; his breathing was softer, he had fallen asleep. He was noticeably more relaxed.
