Rating: G
Mai looked at the heart-shaped box of chocolates in front of her with disbelief. It wasn't her birthday, and it wasn't Valentine's Day, so she wondered why Mikoto would give her something like this on an otherwise ordinary day.
"For me?" she asked.
Mikoto nodded enthusiastically. "Yup!"
"T-Thanks, Mikoto." Mai took a bite out of one of the caramel-filled chocolates and perked up almost instantly. She was about to reach for another when Mikoto sealed up the box. "How did you manage to get one of these?"
"Well, I figured that you deserve something special for all the yummy treats you've given me over the years," said Mikoto. "I've been working part-time helping Shiho's grandpa keep the shrine clean. With the money I saved over the last month, I bought these chocolates."
"I'm glad you've found something to do that makes you feel good. I'm sure Shiho and her grandpa appreciate your hard work."
"Yeah, and next year, I'm going to work even harder so that I can get you something even better."
Mai set the box aside and placed it next to the lamp on her dresser, planning to hold on to it, even after the candy was finished.
