    A gift? Why would you give him a gift?

    You know about his past, even if it's just a glimpse, you still saw the little boy, Michael, struggling to survive from his father's abuse and the hunger he would always feel, the loneliness that he had no one to play with and the love that he should have experienced as a child but got abandoned. Leaving him astray, just around the corner, dirty and full of bruises.

    Like those stray dogs that are also abandoned and treated badly.

    You decided to bring him a gift to show your sympathy when you got to know about Kaiser's past, you expected to see his eyes painted in a light blue color filled with appreciation but you instead received an unsure gaze. Kaiser glanced down at the wrapped gift on your hands, his lips slightly parted to speak but got no words to say.

    He looks confused in your perspective, however, his mind is filled with thoughts 'why?' Kaiser was questioning the purpose of your gift in his mind, until he looked upon your eyes, analyzing you. Were you one of his fans? If you are, why aren't you cheering for him like others? Why are you looking at him with those sympathetic eyes?

    ... is there something you want from him in return? Is this a test from you? And so on, as if he doesn't trust you at all and he couldn't deny the feeling of sadness in his chest. After all, why are you giving him a gift? What's the purpose of it? And why does he feel so vulnerable being gazed upon your sympathetic eyes?

    It was then Kaiser felt disturbed. For the first time, he doesn't know about the purpose of your gift. He self-learned himself about psychology, he could read the purpose of his opponent's actions and their goal. But you? He couldn't.
