Yalani wrapped his arms around Oliver and kisses him. His tail wraps around Oliver’s.
he just enjoys the embrace.
As Yalani embraces him, he starts tearing up.
“what’s the matter?”
“You’re just so nice to me. You’re the gift who keeps giving. I can’t catch up.” He wipes his eyes. “Sorry, should we continue eating?”
“yeah, i hope you like roasted cauliflower.”
Yalani continues to eat dinner. I don’t deserve him. I don’t ever deserve someone like him . . . yet here he is. I don’t know what I did, but I’m not gonna lose him. I’m not gonna lose something so precious.
“so, what’s your favorite?”
“I can’t choose . . . I like them all so much.”
“aw… okay…” he said disappointed.
“Though, I could use another taste to make sure. What should I start with?”
“maybe the fried ice cream?”
Yalani froze. “You . . . can fry . . . ice cream?”
“yes.”
“I wanna taste that next,” he said, allured by the idea of frying ice cream.
“okay, one sec!” he said rushing out.
Yalani sat on his heels as his tail was wagging rapidly.
he ran back in with a bowl of fried ice cream.
Yalani, amazed by the look, closed his eyes and opened his mouth, his tail thrashing the bed in excitement.
Oliver fed him some.
