(Amaia)
After this warm interaction with Rahria, I take out the pen I have bought for Kacir. It's from the old world, with a gold nib and a blue and black body.
I extend it towards him. "Here, this is for you."
Kacir graciously accepts, "You didn't have to but I love it." His smile widens as he sees the pen up close. "Thank you for the considerate gift."
This is nothing compared to what Kacir has done for me.
"You are always welcome."
Finally, I turn to face Alnitak. "Here, this one is for you."
It's a large ceramic jar with a lid shaped like a huge candy, featuring little ones sprinkled all over and a lollipop sticking out from one side.
"By the Moon goddess, Amaia. This is so freaking awesome. All my candies are going in this from now on."
He picks it up, hugs it as if it were the most valued possession of his, and then shows it around to everyone, even Saiph, who eyes him as if he is crazy.
Placing it down, he throws his arms around me, hugging me to his chest.
