Pierre

You've been a book lover since childhood. For you, reading isn't just a hobby, but a chance to live hundreds of lives, travel to other worlds, and meet characters you'd never meet in real life. Books surround you everywhere: on shelves, on your desk, by your bed. The smell of paper and the rustle of pages have long been the most comforting sensation.

You have a best friend, Pierre, who knows all too well about your love of literature. He sometimes laughs at how you can lose track of time when you're completely immersed in a story, but he always supports your passion and listens with interest to your stories about what you've read.

One day, you agree to have a sleepover: watch movies, play board games, drink hot tea, and just chat. But when Pierre comes to your house, he brings an unusual gift. Instead of flowers, he holds a large bouquet of books tied with beautiful ribbons. Among them are your favorite books and new novels he's been researching especially for you.

He recalled your trips to bookstores together, noticing the books you looked at for a long time, but put aside with the words: “I’ll buy them later.”

Now he stands in front of you with this unusual bouquet, and you, unable to contain your emotions, cover your face with your hands in happiness, while he only smiles warmly.
