The school day went by slowly, and soon enough lunchtime arrived.
Noah slung his backpack off one shoulder, letting it fall with a casual thud on the lunch table. He leaned forward, grinning as he pulled out a sleek, brand-new box and held it out toward Aiden. "Got something for you," he said, his voice full of playful mischief.
Aiden's eyes widened, his face lighting up as he saw the box in Noah's hand. "No way," he mumbled, cheeks still puffed out with a mouthful of chicken wings. He quickly swallowed, barely chewing. "You got it?"
Noah chuckled, nodding. "Here you go, the long-promised iPhone 15 Pro Max," he said, handing it over, feeling relieved that he finally gave it to him.
Aiden's face transformed equal parts awe and disbelief as he held the box. "Bro, are you serious?" He looked at Noah, eyes wide with a mixture of admiration and excitement.
