@writtenbyastro // Ryota stepped towards the girl, holding out a small present. Behind him was a childish wagon, a few more presents on it, sizes varied. Each with different names on the tags. He then quickly left the area. If the woman were to open up the present, she would find a golden ring, with a multitude of gems, ranging from diamond to sapphire to ruby. Looks like someone did some shopping.
Celeste couldn’t help but laugh lightly as she turned the box around in her hands, ring brushing against the corner. It was small, small enough to hold solely in the palm of her hand. She watched him walk away with a small smile on her face, the absurd wagon dragging behind him. Funny, she thought. Mitarai didn’t seem like the type that she could wrap around her finger that easily, and yet here he was, getting a gift from him of all people. She carefully undid the plain wrappings, only to find a small black box that was clearly home to some sort of jewelry. Now that surprised her. She had figured that he wouldn’t have known the slightest thing about selecting a gift for a woman, let alone something that would suit her. Upon opening it and seeing the ring inside, she internally squealed with delight. Celestia adored shiny things, the more expensive, the better, so this was a welcome surprise, especially from Mitarai of all people. She found herself slipping the clawed ring she usually wore off of her finger and sliding the gold one into its place, putting her usual ring safely into the box. With a smile, she turned on her heel, taking graceful steps back to her room.
