Of course, out of all the presents and supplies they brought, Choko had to select the smallest present. Minoru, though, just took the opportunity to take everything out of the satchels and spread it across the floor. A lot of it was wrapped in brightly-colored paper. But some of it, namely the foodstuffs, were not.
Minoru gathered the various canned goods and bags of dry rice and beans together for Balthazar to take to the kitchen next time he went.
Soon, though, he found what he was looking for - a small box wrapped in bright green paper. “This one’s for Hannah!”
Inside was a locket that the boys had picked out. It was heart-shaped, but plainly decorated, something that hopefully wouldn’t be too out of place here. It could be opened, and there was space to put something special inside.
If needed, Isamu would explain its purpose more thoroughly, as well as suggest some of the things - such as a photo, small piece of cloth or lock of hair - that historically were placed inside one.
“The feeling of having a loved one so close brings security to many people. We hoped it would have the same effect here.” He admitted. Minoru unconsciously touched the chain around his neck.
