But wiseman said that it's better late than never, right? 😅

So, this is my birthday gift for the kakashi's soulmate and my new kakayama fic for all of you guys!

Happy reading, hope you like it 🥰

********

9 pm, inside his apartment, tenzo sit on his knees on the floor. In front of him, on a table, there was a small cake, a birthday cake, with one small candle on top of it.

Tenzo took a breath, then exhaled slowly. He took a lighter, next to the cake, then lit the candle. Tenzo put the lighter back, then clasped his hands together and closed his eyes.

"Dear God, today is my 13th birthday. I've never celebrated my birthdays before, neither when aunt Tsunade was still alive nor after she passed away. So this is my first time..." Tenzo silend for a moment, then continuoud it.." People say to make a wish before blowing the candle, so the wish will come true. I don't know if it's true or not...but...I wish...I wish I can have a friend. I have mochi, but she is a cat. I mean a human friend...maybe a close one...so I won't feel lonely anymore...Amen..." Then he blew the candle.

Shortly after the candle flame went out, there were knock knock at the door. Tenzo was a little surprised. He opened his eyes and looked at the clock on the wall. Who comes at this time of night? he thought.

Tenzo went towards the door and opened it. It turns out there was no one. But there was something on the floor. A box. Not big. Wrapped neatly, with navy blue paper and a red ribbon on top and a card.

A package? A gift? Is this for me? Of whom? But....I asked a friend... A human friend...how could a human be wrapped in a small box like this?

Tenzo took the box, then read the writing on the card. Oh... apparently the box wasn't for him. The box was intended for the room next to his room. Tenzo didn't know who lived next door to his room. Tenzo had never seen or met the people who lived there, even though their rooms were next to each other. But, whoever it is, Tenzo still has to hand over the box.

So Tenzo stepped up and knocked on the door of the next room. No answer. Tenzo knocked once again. And the door opened. There was a teenage boy, his body was taller than Tenzo, with thick silver hair that covered his left eye and a mask that covered half of his face. So only his right eye is visible. Her appearance is quite mysterious, thought Tenzo.

"Yes?" The teenage boy asked in a flat intonation.

"Um...I'm sorry for bothering you late night...but I guess this box belongs to you...someone put it by mistake in front of my room..." said Tenzo with a shy smile.

"Thank you..." the teenage boy answered briefly.

Tenzo handed over the box and the teenage boy accepted it.

"Oh...did your finger hurt?" Tenzo asked when he saw the boy's bleeding thumb and index finger.

"Oh... just a small wound... pricked by a cactus thorn..."

"Cactus thorns?"

"Well... I don't know why my cactus, which was green, turned brown. I tried to check it and accidentally got pricked by its thorns..."

"Oh...I see. May I see the cactus? I quite like plans so I know a little bit about cactus. Maybe I can help you..." said Tenzo.

The teenage boy thought for a moment..."Fine, come in..." he answered invitingly. Tenzo goes inside. He glanced at the teenage boy's apartment. There's not that much stuff in it. But everything is neatly arranged.

"Over here..." said the teenage boy. He walked towards the TV table. Tenzo took off his sandals then followed him. Right next to the TV there is a cactus in a pot.

"This is the cactus..." said the teenage boy. Tenzo stepped closer and looked at the cactus. Some of the colors are still green, but others are brown. Tenzo then looked around. The TV table is far from the window.

"Do you always put this cactus here?"

"Yes..."

"How many times did you water it?"

"Everyday of course...don't plants need water?"

Tenzo smiled. "I am sure that your cactus is getting too much water and not enough sunlight..."

"What?" Even though most of his face was covered, Tenzo could see that the teenage boy looked surprised and confused.

"The cactus doesn't need to be watered every day, because basically it is a plant that lives in barren areas, and because of that it also needs sunlight. The brown part shows that it is almost rotting..."

"Oh...no...is there anything we can do to safe it?:

"I think we can still keep it safe..." said Tenzo, smiling kindly. "Do you have paper and knife?"

"Paper and knife? I do. Wait...I'll take them..."

After receiving the paper and knife, Tenzo then took the cactus out of the pot by slowly wrapping the paper around it. Then he checked the stem and roots, then cut the black roots with a knife.

After that, Tenzo placed the cactus near the window. "This cactus must be dried in the sun to dry for several days. Once it is completely dry, plant it back in the pot. Just put the pot here so it gets light, and water it only once a week."

The teenage boy was truly impressed with what Tenzo did to save his cactus. "Thank you..." he said.

"No problem..." answered Tenzo with a friendly smile. Suddenly, the teenage boy with thick silver hair and a mask felt his face warm.

"Umm...are you okay?" Tenzo asked.

"Hmm...?"

"Your face...althouugh it's masked...I think it turns a little bit red..."

"What??? Really???" The teenage boy clearing his throat "I am fine.."

"Are your fingers still hurt?"

"Um...yeah...a little..."

"Do you have any medicine and bandage? Your wound could become infected if it is not cleaned and treated immediately..."

"Um...I don't have any of that..."

"I have some...what if you come to my room?"

"Umm...alright..."

A few moments later, the silver-haired teenage boy was sitting in Tenzo's TV room. Tenzo came out of the bathroom carrying a medicine box. He then sat next to the teenager.

"May I?" Tenzo asked.

The silver-haired teenager stretched out his right hand reluctantly. He watched how Tenzo carefully cleaned and treated the wounds on his fingers. And when Tenzo touched his hand, he felt....comfortable.

"Well, it's done..." said Tenzo.

"Thank you..."

"No problem..." answered Tenzo with a friendly smile.

"Um...is that a birthday cake?"

"Oh...yes it is..." Tenzo laughed awkwardly. He just remembered that the birthday cake and candle were still on the table.

"Are you...celebrating a birthday?"

"I am...."

"Whose birthday?"

Tenzo laughed awkwardly again. "Mine...."

"Alone?"

"Um...not really...with mochi actually..."

"Mochi?"

My cat..." said Tenzo while pointing to the doormat in front of his room, a fat calico cat was sleeping on it.

"Oh...I see..." said the teenage boy, smiling behind his mask.

"Do you want some cake? How about we taste the birthday cake?" Tenzo asked.

"Okay..."

Tenzo went to the kitchen, took two small plates and two forks, then cut the cake into two pieces, put one piece of each on a plate and gave one of them to the teenager.

"Thanks..." answered the teenager while receiving the plate. He then took off his mask and started eating the cake. For a moment, Tenzo was amazed to see the teenager's face. It turns out his face is...handsome. Tenzo felt his cheeks warm.

"Something wrong? I think your face is red now?" said the teenager.

Tenzo became embarrassed.

"Oh...Um...nothing. How is the cake?" asked Tenzo.

"Actually, I don't really like sweets, but this cake is delicious..."

"Glad you like it...Umm...I didn't see anyone else in your apartment earlier, do you live alone?"

"I do... I don't see anyone else besides that cat here? Do you live alone too?

"Yeah... Previously I lived in another apartment with my aunt. Two months ago she died and after that I moved here because the rent here is cheaper..."

"Oh...I'm sorry..."

"It's okay... How about you? Why do you live alone?"

"Actually, I'm not from here. I live with my father in another city. I moved here because... there are a lot of sad memories there... I wanted a change of scenery..."

"I see...By the way, since when do you like cactus?"

"Oh...actually the cactus belonged to a friend. He died a few months ago. He saved me when I was almost hit by a car driven by a drunk. His name was Obito. The cactus was a gift from a girl he really liked, who was also my friend, her name was Rin. Rin died last year due to cancer. The cactus held the memories of the two of them, so I decided to take care of it... but it turns out I'm not good at taking care of it..."

Silence...

"If you need my help to care for the cactus, just let me know. I will help you..."

"Thanks a lot... I'm sorry for talking too much...."

"No, it's fine..."

"It feels a bit strange...

"Strange?"

"Usually I don't like to talk a lot, especially with people I've just met... But I feel comfortable talking to you..." said the teenager with a smile. Tenzo blushed, he hopped his brunet hair was long enough to hide his face. "I think it's already late, I have to go back to my room..."

"Oh...you're right..."

"Thanks a lot..." said the silver-haired teenager go back to his room

"You're welcome." Tenzo answered while closing the door.

Tenzo sighed. He turned around and leaned against the door. He never thought that today he would meet his neighbor. But he felt happy.

Suddenly...knock knock...again.

Tenzo was surprised. Who else, now? he thought. He also opened the door.

"Hi again! I am sorry for bothering you...but it's funny...you've helped me a lot and we've talked to each other...but I haven't even told you my name, and I don't know yours. My name is Kakashi..."

Tenzo chuckled. "I also just realized... my name is Tenzo..."

"Well Tenzo...happy birthday..."

"Oh...thanks..." Tenzo smiled and blushed.

"And this is for you...for my thanks and birthday gift..." Kakashi gave Tenzo a small bell. "This is from the box earlier. Two bells belonged to my mentor, Minato Sensei. It seems he wrote the room number wrong so the box was placed in front of your room. Because there are 2 bells, I'll give one to you. I hope you like it." Kakashi said smiling behind his mask.

"Oh...this is very nice. Thank you so much, kakashi."

"You're welcome. So, see you...tomorrow?" Kakashi asked.

"See you tomorrow..." replied Tenzo smiling.

That day was the first time Tenzo celebrated his birthday. The first time he got a gift. And the gift is very special. A friend, not just a friend, but the closest one.

Happy Birthday Tenzo!
