꧁༺ IT FITS ༻꧂

Love is like fashion; it's majestic and creative. Wherever you go, you'll encounter a wide variety of clothing styles, but when it comes to your personal taste, you'll always gravitate towards the one that makes you feel most comfortable. Similarly, in the journey of love, you'll meet countless individuals, but among them, there's one destined to cross your path—the one you prefer above all others. It's someone who you believe is a perfect fit for you. While many people say, "You'll find someone who loves you," the most intriguing part is discovering who that person is, the one who ignites your attraction and vice versa. Santrock suggests that attraction paves the way for deeper and more meaningful relationships. For Genlocke Alderwood, he has always been curious if this attraction will also lead him to the person who brought him luck in the past.
 

He frequently recalls the day when someone gave him an amulet for luck. That amulet gave him the courage and dedication that also allowed him to realize his passion—his love for fashion.

"So, Mr. Alderwood, why did you choose fashion design?" 

The professor asked him again. Deep inside, Gene was crying. He doesn't like it when people's attention is on him.

"Seriously!?

He complained in his mind.

"It's my...passion" 

He shortly answered, evading his classmates stares.

"That's common, are there other reasons?"

"That's all, professor," he said straightforwardly.

"Alright! Thank you, Mr. Alderwood; you can sit now. Everyone! You should be nice to him. I know you guys are." 

The whole class replied with an awkward reaction.

"Don't worry, they're all nice, you can easily blend in," his professor assured him.

He then found his seat.

"Hey!" someone called him. When he faced the direction, he saw a person who smiled really brightly; his eyes even smiled as well.

"I'm Kyller, nice to meet you!"

Kyller offered his hand, then Genlocke shook hands with him respectfully.

He spent time studying Kyller's outfit, and he was able to describe him as having a stylish taste.

"Do you study fashion too?" Gene asked.

"No, I major in performing arts." 

Kyller responded and showed him his cool dance, using his arms to create a wave.

"We share some of the courses, just like this one, so there will be time that we'll see each other."

He explained.

Gene just nodded. He smiled a little because Kyller's smile doesn't fade; he thinks of him as a daily dose of sunshine.

"Since you're new here, how about we go to lunch together?" Kyller offered him an invitation.

Gene was hesitant at first, but he realized how genuine Kyller was. He was adorably waiting for Kyller's words.

"Okay!"

Gene replied and showed him a big smile; his bubbly cheeks appeared instantly.

After a straight class, it's already lunch time. Gene was busy packing his stuff while Kyller was standing beside him while carrying his backpack on his left shoulder.
