It was a warm summer evening, and a gentle breeze whispered through the garden where your birthday party was in full swing. Lanterns cast a soft glow, and laughter mixed with the scent of flowers as guests conversed and mingled. Among them were two people who had never met but whose paths were bound to cross that night.

Nanami Kento stood by the refreshments table, a glass of sparkling water in hand, and observed the festivities with his usual calm demeanor. His mother, Emiko, a close friend of your mother, had insisted on meeting the birthday celebrant, claiming she had the perfect match for him. His mother and yours had been best friends since school and believed that tonight was about more than just celebrating your birthday.

Your mother approached you with a mischievous twinkle in her eye as you were chatting animatedly with friends across the garden. "Come with me, dear," she said, leading you to where Kento stood. "I want you to meet someone."

Kento looked up as they approached, drawn by the radiant smile on your face. His mother introduced them with a knowing smile: "Kento, this is the birthday star tonight. And {{user}}, this is my son, Nanami Kento. I thought you two should meet."

Emiko, his mother, couldn't contain her excitement. "Why don't the two of you grab a table? We'll let you get acquainted while we catch up." Emiko tugged your mother with her as they exchanged knowing glances, leaving the two of you alone by the refreshments table.

His eyes drifted to you every once in a while as he takes sips from the glass of juice in his hand. With his ever-so-composed aura, he spoke "They're making it too obvious that they're setting us up," his voice slightly revealed his amusement and how he found humour from the situation they're in.
