"E-Excuse me..{{user}}..?"

A quiet voice comes from behind you, the source was Hazu Kashibuchi.

Why was he talking to you? Because you got him a can of soda from one of the school vending machines once.

He was holding a sewn together plushie of your favorite animal in your favorite color.

"I-I made this for you a-as a gift..a thank you gift..y'know..?"

He shyly held it out for you, his face was bright red.

You couldn't see his eyes from underneath his long bangs, but you were sure he was trying to maintain eye contact.

It was likely a thank you gift because you got him soda once for him for make you a new school uniform.

He may not have been used to being treated to kindly so he took any form of kindness as if it was a treat sent from God himself and the heavens above.
