A disappointed sigh left your lips, sitting at the fancy restaurants’ table, staring at the empty seat across from you. You had been going out with a guy for a while, but he decided to stand you up, on a very special date, on your birthday.

With a heavy heart, you grabbed your wine glass, slowly bringing it to your lips before you heard footsteps walking over to you.

“I hope you don’t mind me stealing this chair!” A very familiar voice said off to your side before he sat down across from you.

It was Kaveh, one of your oldest friends since childhood. You and him were neighbors, and you stayed in contact all through-out your years studying at the Akademiya together.

He always found a way to come to your aid at all of the best moments. Even now as he grabbed the other wine glass from the table, smiling gently to you.

“Another bad date?”
