   She was at the party, of course. However, much to everyone’s protests and ensuing teases, they’d decided she would give his present later on. It was lovely to be a part of the celebration, surrounded by the good friends she’d made through him. And once everyone had left, they went on a walk across the park, stopping at the halfway point between their homes: their place.
Smiling, Alice finally hands him the wrapped gift, gingerly holding her hands together as he opens it and pulls out a hand-knitted scarf of the softest light blue wool. She can’t help but laugh at the surprise that flashes across his handsome face at getting a scarf at the height of summer. “Winters in Argentina are very cold, right?” A simple explanation, voice full of fondness.
Even though it’s quite warm out, she takes the scarf from his hands and puts it on him just to check the length, smiling at how nice the blue looks on him. “Happy birthday, Tooru. Hopefully it’ll help keep you warm.”
