[gentle music] Hey, Waffle Gang. I do hope you're well. My name is Mark, and today we're checking out some more Reddit stories. And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider hitting that like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. And let's crack on with today's first story. Much love, guys. Now, today's first story comes from the TrueOffMyChest subreddit, and it says, "My boyfriend did not give me the first slice of cake." It starts, "I, 20 female, am from Brazil, and here it is tradition that in a birthday party, the person whose birthday is being celebrated gives the first slice of cake to their favorite person after everyone sings the birthday song. This week was my boyfriend's, 24 male, and he had three celebrations: one with his birth family, one with his adoptive family, and one with friends, which was a surprise picnic that I had planned and organized. He's had a very difficult life, and his mums are really important to him, as the adoptive mum saved him from starving as a kid and raised him, giving him a chance at life. And his birth mum battled very hard against poverty all her life, struggling and fighting to keep her kids alive and well. So of course, I never expected him to give me the first slice of cake at the family celebrations. But then there was the picnic. I spent weeks planning and reaching out to all his childhood friends, making sure they would come.
