...

The medallion was simply... perfect. A handmade masterpiece.

"Brother... What's wrong with you; Why are you crying? Didn't you like the gift?" – Claire asked somewhat sadly.

"What?" – I asked without understanding.

I quickly touched my face with my fingers and sure enough, tears had begun to come out of my eyes, something I thought would never happen again. The last time I cried in my previous life was when I learned the death of my biological parents, in fact, I think that was the only time I cried, while in this life like Jacob, I cried several times when I was a child (as all children do), but when I got older, when I entered adolescence, I never shed a single tear, no matter how difficult or sad the situation was, I only cried a little over the death of my grandfather, however, I am one of those people who express their pain in a different way and not crying; that's who I am, so when I found out that I had started crying without realizing it, I was surprised.

"As I thought... You didn't like it" – Claire said depressed.

The twins also looked a little downcast, sad that Jacob didn't like their hand made gift.

No! It is quite the opposite.

"It's not that; it's just that I got excited about how beautiful it is!" – I said quickly.

"Really?!" – Claire asked excitedly.

The twins seemed to mean the same thing as Claire.

"Of course, I cried because I was excited, no one had ever given me anything like that, no one had ever loved me enough to give me such a special gift, that's why I cried, because I was moved by your feelings" – I said.

This is something totally true and that does not contain an iota of lying, for the first time in my two lives, someone has given me something handmade. Yes, many people have given me gifts before, but it's not the same, the feelings hidden in this medallion made through the efforts of the person, or in this case Claire and the twins, is not something comparable to something artificially made in a factory. I know that there were many people who loved me in this life and who probably would have done something similar to me as well if they had thought of it, Emma, Olive, Bronwyn and Fiona; I'm sure they would all have done something like that to me if they had thought of it, on the other hand, my parents also loved me very much, yes, but in my opinion they were too materialistic on many occasions and I'm sure they would never give me anything handmade by themselves; I know them very well.

On the other hand, in my other life it wasn't even like this one, I didn't receive any gifts in my childhood and everything I ended up having, I got by my own efforts, it is true that many people gave me gifts and even many of the wives I had as well, wowever, all these people did not give me gifts because they loved me, but to keep me in a good mood, or, in other words, they only wanted me for the interest, because I had money and power; that was what my relationship with others was limited to.

But in this life it's different, in this life I have people who give me gifts and not out of interest, but because they truly love me, in this case it was Claire and the twins, but I'm sure that, in the future, the rest of the girls could do something similar; I can feel it in my insides.

"Brother, although their photos is not there, the rest of the sisters helped us carve the medallion, we all contribute, in fact, we also wanted to put the photos of my sisters, but they insisted that it was our gift and, therefore, we should only put a photo in which only we appeared, I just wanted you to know that they all contributed" - Claire said.

Emma and Olive had helped carve the locket, Bronwyn and Fiona with the game scenarios that Jacob previously played, Miss Peregrine took the photo of Claire and the twins, while Claire and the twins put the finishing touches on the locket and put the photo, carved the heart and the phrase on the back of the medallion, therefore, it can be said that the medallion is a gift from every girl; a handmade gift for Jacob.

Hearing that all the girls contributed to the making of this locket, I couldn't resist the tears, which began to fall down my face without me being able to control them. It was strange, in my previous life I never cried like that, in fact, as an adult I only cried when I learned about the death of my biological parents, whereas, in this life, as Jacob I didn't cry even when the school bullies bullied me before I found Ricky, nor did i cry even when everyone treated me as Jacob "the weirdo," an outcast who had no friends and who bribed someone to rid him of the bullies, an asocial.

"Brother..." – Claire said in amazement.

Now that she knew that the medallion that they all made with all their love had pleased Jacob, she was as happy as a human being could be, but seeing the current Jacob, vulnerable as he cried with happiness, her little heart contracted. Had he liked the gift so much that he even began to cry with happiness? On the one hand, Claire was extremely happy that the gift provoked such feelings in him, but on the other hand, she was sad because she felt guilty for making Jacob cry; something she never thought she would see.

The twins were also surprised to see Jacob cry, they had exactly the same feelings as Claire and were both happy and sad to make Jacob cry.

The three girls looked at each other and nodded, there seemed to be a tacit understanding between them, an understanding that exceeded any limit and allowed them to communicate without the need to speak, the three of them knew what they had to do now without even talking about it among themselves, the three of them hugged Jacob tightly.

"Thank you very much for everything... Really, thank you very much" – I said excitedly.

I couldn't stop crying, I couldn't control my emotions that boiled over after I found out that there were people who had these kinds of feelings for me, feelings that lacked interest, they didn't give me things out of obligation, they didn't give me things out of interest, but because they loved me, these girls loved me enough to give me such a gift, It may sound stupid or many might believe that I am getting too excited about a simple medallion, but for me, who had never felt this kind of love, it was extremely important.

I cried for a long time while the girls hugged each other tightly, without saying a single word, until, minutes later, I finally returned to normal and I could finally get my feelings back under control.

Claire and the twins kept quiet all this time because they knew they had to let Jacob vent, that is why they did not say a word.

"Are you feeling better, brother?" – Claire asked when I stopped crying.

"Yes. I'm much better, thank you very much for the medallion and sorry for showing such an unseemly image of me" – I said embarrassed.

I had cried in front of these girls and I felt a little embarrassed about it.

"Don't worry, brother! We are here for whatever it takes, if you ever want to vent, you can always come to us; we will listen to you and console you with all our strength! Right?" – Claire said with a determined tone.

The twins nodded, confirming that they agreed with Claire's words, if Jacob wanted, they would help him in any way possible. Even if it was impossible for them to speak, they would comfort him with all their might.

"Thank you very much, to the three of you, thank you so much for this fun day and for loving me enough to give me this amazing gift that I will treasure forever" – I said with a smile.

Then I put on the medallion on my neck, a handmade masterpiece that expressed the feelings of the girls towards me.

"Brother... before you go back... the three of us wanted to tell you something" – Claire said.

Now that everything was settled, it was time to tell Jacob the truth; a truth that they had been waiting all day to say.

"Of course, tell me what you want" – I said.

I was so happy that I didn't care about anything, I could already control my emotions, but even so, I couldn't control my joy.

"I... we... we also want to have the same relationship that you have with sister Bronwyn and sister Fiona" - Claire said.

They had been thinking all day about how they should say these words, and after many hours, they thought that this was the best way to express their feelings.

For a moment, I was paralyzed, but soon it passed because I already knew about the feelings these three beautiful girls had for me, but I was surprised that they confessed to me so suddenly, although I should have expected it, especially after all happened today, especially after receiving the best gift of my life.

"I see..." – I said.

"I know that the three of us are childs, or, rather, we know that we look like childs and on many occasions we act like one, but we still want to have the same relationship with you that you have with sister Bronwyn and sister Fiona, we want to always be with you like your family, but, above all, like your girlfriends, we love you, brother; please go out with us" - Claire said.

At that moment, Claire and the twins' hearts began to beat like crazy, especially those of the twins, who were not very convinced that Jacob was going to accept them, after all, who would want them having that face? They couldn't kiss Jacob if they couldn't even touch his skin directly, so why would Jacob want them as his girlfriends? Because of this, they didn't want to confess their feelings at first, but Claire convinced them otherwise, Claire told them that Jacob didn't care about outward appearance at all, that that was irrelevant to him, so, after much thought, they decided to listen to Claire and confessed their feelings to Jacob and although their hearts were still not very convinced of Claire's words, they decided to give it a try.
