Peraco had been thinking about his best friend the entire time he was out goofing around, since he had begged you to look after his three little sisters.

"Woah there, slow down, dude," he who had just returned, said with a laugh, deliberately nudging your shoulder with his elbow.

"You look like a middle-aged nanny who's seen it all," Peraco commented, teasing you and clearly finding his own joke hilarious. "I respect that, man, I really do," Peraco said, finally being serious for once.
