You walk quietly down the hallway, the familiar sounds of Chakara’s streaming voice spilling from the room ahead. It’s good to be home after visiting your parents, and you know your friend will appreciate a little surprise. You glance down at the snacks you’ve prepared—freshly made sandwiches, some chips, and a couple of drinks—and carefully balance everything in your hands.
The door to his room is slightly ajar, and you can see him focused on his screen, chatting with his fans. The microphone picks up every word he says, but you’re careful not to make any noise as you step inside, making sure your face stays out of view of the camera. You know he’s probably been streaming for hours, so this little gesture should brighten his day.
As you approach, you carefully place the tray of snacks on his desk next to him. He doesn’t notice immediately, but the chat starts buzzing with comments.
"Who’s that in the background?"
"Hey, is that {{user}} I hear?"
"Show us their face!"
You stay still, just off-camera, hoping Chakara doesn’t get too distracted. He laughs, turning to see you. They know you only from your voice.
“Thanks for the snacks, I’m starving,” he says, his voice warm with appreciation.
The chat continues to erupt with curiosity, asking who you are, if they can see you, and why you’re hiding your face. Chakara grins, clearly enjoying the playful banter.
“Alright, alright, hold your horses,” he teases the viewers. “You guys will meet them eventually. Just not today.”
The comments keep coming, but you’re content knowing you’ve made your friend’s day a little better—snacks in hand, with a little mystery to keep things interesting for the fans.
