Kevin's pov:

I was walking downtown when I saw a really cool looking shop.

It was a hole in the wall shop with only a small cracked window and a splintery wooden sign.
The sign read"magical & non-practical".

I thought that I might as well check it out, maybe I could find something for streber?

As I opened the door a small bell rang to alert the worker that there was a customer.

I looked around and noticed the abundance of books, I knew that streber didn't enjoy reading that much.
I didn't understand how he couldn't like reading, it's amazing!

I do recall him mentioning that his "mind's eye was half blind", I knew that what he meant was that he had mild aphantasia, which means your ability to mentally image something and/or imagining other senses was limited or not there at all.

As I was skimming the book selection for myself something caught my eye.

It was a shelf with little mystical trinkets on it right next to a counter with jewelry on display.

It looked absolutely beautiful, such a whimsical display!

I was looking through the items when I saw something that streber would absolutely adore! It was a thick ring with  a spiderweb and spider engraved.

I managed to catch the workers attention and asked how much the ring was.

" Oh that one is 20 dollars and 55 cents"

"I'll take it!" I said excitedly.

After the transaction was completed I was walking back to the house I saw strebers car infront of the house.

I assumed he was still out with his friends but I guess the hangout was cut short.

As I unlocked the door I walked into the house immediately locking it back up and hanging my keys on the keyring I heard streber.

"HEY KEVS!!" He yelled from the other room.
I could hear him shuffling around trying to get to the main entrance to the apartment.

" Hey kevster " streber said, his smile was so bright and happy.
I couldn't help smile back, it was contagious!

He hugged me right after I lightly placed the bag on the table close to the door as the apartment was small.

I flushed and flinched as I am not used to positive touch.

It took me a little bit to relax into the hug but by then he had let go.

"Sooooo, what's in the bag?" He said in a bad attempt to be slick.

"Hehe, you will have to find out" I said with a chuckle.

"Fiiinnneee" he said melting into a walk.

" Well what did you want to eat?" I said.

"Oh I have that covered." Streber said happily.

"Really?" I said, smirking at him through the window between the kitchen and living room whilst opening the fridge and closing it again.

"Yeah, I ordered some sushi!" Streber said sitting on the couch and grabbing the remote for the TV.

"OoooooOh!"

"Soo, ya gonna tell me what's in the bag now?" Streber said no longer attempting to be slick.

"Ookkayy, come and see."

"Yippee!!" Streber squealed

As I took the ring out of the bag then out of the small box I put it on the counter infront of him.

" Oh WOW KEVIN, WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?? ITS SO COOL!!"

"Oh it was a little hole in the wall shop hehe"

"WOW THANK YOU SO MUCH KEVS!!" Streber said while embracing me once again.

"Oh it's no problem, kinda impossible to not get it for you!" Once I finished speaking I looked over to see it on his ring finger.

My face turned slightly pink

"What?" He said, clueless.

"Streber, why is it on your ring finger." I asked, somehow looking slightly pale but slightly blushing at the same time.

"What do you mean ring finger? It's just the only finger that it fits on!" He said, visibly confused.

"That's the finger that people wear their wedding rings on strebs." I said, looking disappointed.

"Oh, oops hehe" streber said while rubbing the back of his neck.
