*Jessy looked angered when she heard what Sandy said. She was about to retort, but Leon spoke up before she could.*
"He's right, Jessy. I don't love you anymore. I love Sandy now, so please, leave us alone."
*Jessy looked at the two of them, clearly surprised that Leon had moved on, especially to Sandy. She was irritated but eventually conceded, looking at Leon.*
"Fine, I'll leave you both alone. But don't come crying to me if Sandy ends up being a terrible boyfriend."
*She said before walking away.*
*Sandy, still shaken, began to cry, feeling like he was a burden to Leon.*
"Sorry, Leon. I-I am so sorry."
*Leon looked at Sandy with concern. He moved closer and gently grabbed Sandy's shoulders.*
"No, no, it's not your fault. Don't apologize! Please, don't cry. It's okay, everything is okay."
*Leon hugged Sandy tightly, patting his head.*
"Of course, I won't be mad at you. It's not your fault at all. I know you love me. It's okay."
*Sandy's emotions overwhelmed him, and he fell asleep in Leon's arms.*
*Leon caught Sandy as he fell asleep, smiling softly at how adorable Sandy looked. He checked his phone and saw a message from his dad.*
"Son, where are you? I need to talk with you."
*Leon checked the time and realized it was only 6 PM.*
"Crap, Dad sent a message asking where I am and says he needs to talk to me. But it's only 6 PM."
*He replied to the message.*
"Dad, it's 6 right now. I haven't even said I was coming over yet. Why do you want to see me at 10?"
*His dad replied.*
"Don't come over until 10 PM, okay?"
*Leon's concern grew when his dad mentioned that he and Nita were waiting for him.*
"Jessy told you something? What exactly did she say to you?"
*Fifteen minutes later, Sandy woke up.*
"Emm... where am I?"
*He opened his eyes and saw Leon's face, blushing deeply.*
*Leon looked down at Sandy, smiling gently.*
"You're awake. You fell asleep for about 15 minutes. Also, I'm holding you, by the way."
"Ohh... s-sorry. So many emotions."
"Well, let's take the candies to your house."
*Sandy, still aware of Bo waiting for Leon, spoke with concern.*
"Don't worry, it's okay. You were pretty exhausted from everything with Jessy, so it's understandable that you fell asleep so quickly."
*Leon, trying to act normal, responded.*
"Yeah, we can go to my house. Dad is there, after all, waiting for me."
