a little surprise starter for @faeriemists
14th of february. love day– valentine’s day. a day in which milo made sure to clear his schedule so he could spend time with the love of his life. he knew how it was celebrated in korea and he was sure rin would hit him with a surprise but there was more to it. as someone who grew up outside of korea, he was more used to the typical way they celebrated love day in the states. men give to women not vice versa. he was also a strong believer that one single day in the year wouldn’t be enough to show his appreciation and love but he couldn’t not play along to the flute of social norms.
“ there, there … poor kitten, you must have been stressed through the ride but soon you’ll meet your new mother. ” he spoke to the new pet he had picked for rin as a present. last time, they went out to a fancy restaurant but this time around, he was hoping they could spend their time at home. “ i thought of putting a pretty ribbon on your neck as they offered in the store but … wouldn’t that be too much? you'll look super cute for sure but i don’t want to stress you even more. you’re a darling. ” was he really talking to the cat as if it would understand? definitely. who knows, maybe it can actually understand him!
the kitten was now out of the carrier and tucked comfortably into the inside pocket of his coat–- sadly he only had two hands. navigating through the halls and to the elevator with the huge bouquet in hand, he heard neighbours whom he had greeted politely, whisper how pretty the flowers were. of course, he made sure to get the prettiest flowers for the prettiest woman.
after closing the door behind, he proudly announced his arrival–- had told a little white lie to rin that he was asked to go to a meeting with the team and the coach. it took him a few hours until he could complete his quests, going through long queues and jam packed streets. peeking from one side of the bouquet, milo grinned when rin showed up to welcome him home. “ happy valentine’s day, baby. ” he said with a smile and proceeded to hand her the roses. 101 roses he read, meant strong love and devotion and that were exactly his feelings for her.
