November 28th wasn't an ordinary day for Stimpson. It marked the 29th year of his jolly existence.
Every year his parents sent him a little birthday gift to show how much they appreciate their only child as they lived overseas and visiting him was not an option. This year the gift was truly special.
'Oh joy! I can't wait to see what's inside!' – exclaimed Stimpy, hardly containing himself with excitement.
Ren, sitting on the couch and lazily skimming through the pages of his morning newspaper, just rolled his eyes. He would never admit it out loud, but a little grain of jealousy always lingered inside him around the time of Stimpy's birthday. Ren was jealous, because his relationship with his parents was rather weak. Even though he's also an only child, his parents would forget his birthday or send a text message on rare occasions.
With great enthusiasm, Stimpy unwrapped the package and could not believe his eyes – the black rectangle box that read Sumsang Galaxy s7.
'Look Ren, a smartphone! This is so amazing!'– He jumped up and down excitingly.
'A smartphone? Aren't they supposed to be given to those who are actually smart?'- remarked Ren without looking away from his newspaper. 'What are you even going to do with it, you eeediot?'
'I'm gonnna have so much fun with it! I've always wanted to take a romantic selfie with you, Renny, and post it on social media for the world to see'- said Stimpy with pure excitement in his voice.
The cat began to pull Ren's arm to make him stand up so that they could take the selfie. The gift, Stimpy's excitement and the fact that he would like to take a selfie which would show everyone that Ren is in a homosexual relationship and forever tarnish his reputation made him enraged. Under no circumstances would Ren admit that he is bisexual and currently has a male partner since in his opinion it was a huge taboo that could potentially get him fired from his current job.
Filled with uncontrollable anger, Ren finally stood up, but when Stimpy raised his hand holding the brand new smartphone and tried to take a picture, the dog slapped his boyfriend in the face. This unexpected pain caught Stimpy off guard and made him send the phone flying.
It almost seemed as though everything was happening in a slow motion. Stimpy tried his best to catch his phone while it was still in the air and Ren stood still, trying to appear calm and collected, but deep inside he almost felt bad for this outburst. Luckily, Stimpy was quick enough to catch it and when Ren saw that everything was alright, he went to have a long bath. He wanted to spend some time alone and relax as he was pissed, because compared with Stimpy's new phone his Morotola Reizr was garbage. The cat stayed in the living room thinking that next time he should be more careful and not provoke Ren. He felt like this tantrum was his and only his fault.
Nothing particularly important happened that day. Stimpy received some phone calls from his friends who wanted to wish him Happy Birthday, but that was about it. He couldn't go out with Ren to have a dinner at a restaurant because of their financial problems and Ren wasn't the kind of person who likes to show affection in public.
Disappointed, but still hopeful that Ren would help to make this day special, Stimpy went to polish his butt plugs as he expected them to be used tonight.
