As I jump around, stepping on the dried leaves, he watches me. With the sound of leaves crunching under my feet, and the breeze blowing softly- I prance around more.

"Hold on," he says after a while, putting a hand on my shoulder. I step back and look at him swiping leaves with his feet, in confusion. As I watch the pile grow bigger and bigger, the realization hits me as I stare at him in surprise.

It was such a sweet move to make me happy- a move so rare and out of love that I cannot help but think of it days after the event.

"Jump now," he says, moving back and revealing the pile of leaves in front of me.

Truth be told, others would have pushed to jump on the leaves along with me but here he was, the sweetest guy, being thoughtful as usual and piling up the leaves for another person to jump into.

You deserve the world, Ban.
