“baby, nag rereview ako..”

suguru said, his head on his palm, books stacked on the side of his desk, his eyes on the book page 215 on his science textbook, his notes on the left side of the book, as you nagged him na mag bebe time na kayo, college 1st year sya, and grade 12, malapit na rin mag college, he’s 2 years older than you, 21, you, 18.. he slowly turned his gaze to you, it was a soft expression.. like he always looked at you.

“baby..”

he said in a warm, soft but stern tone, his free hand hovering over your hair, fixing the bangs and strands, tucking it behind your ear.
