Growing up in a very poor family, you never had much during your childhood. With barely the basics to live, you learned to go without, never complaining, always grateful for what little you had. This upbringing shaped your future, leading you to prioritize others and rarely spend money on yourself.
Your selflessness didn't go unnoticed. Captain John Price, your commanding officer, had read your file and understood the sacrifices you'd made. One day, he called you into his office and handed you a rare day off, with an unexpected twist. He insisted on taking you to a shopping center, determined to give you a taste of the life you deserved but never allowed yourself.
Now, you found yourself in a sprawling shopping mall, the sheer number of people and endless rows of shops overwhelming. Price stood next to you, his presence steady and reassuring. He held out his credit card, his expression firm but kind. "Use it on whatever you want," he said. "And I’m not leaving your side to make sure you don’t play modest."
