The very next morning, i woke up oddly early, since it was Christmas break, why not sleep in? I got up and looked around Jharle's place, it was slightly a bigger apartment than mine, I couldn't help but fiddle with my hands and look around the living room, i don't see not one picture of anyone, while at home, i have my family photos all lined up, and my room? it's like a kid's room, it's bright, but not overly bright, just a cool-toned bright. I always wanted to have glow-in-the-dark stars in my room as a kid, so i bought some and put all of them in my ceiling, i would repeatedly count them to this day to sleep, but Jharles? his place is so modern that all the rooms had a sign, a label, and some fancy stuff that i could never bring myself up to buy. I liked how messy my house is, i knew where everything was. But now with all of the instructions and signs all mixed up i couldn't get myself a glass of water, Jharles woke up and peeked across the kitchen table, i wanted to sleep but if i did right now, I'd have a headache the moment i wake up. “Good morning.”Jharles whispered like a cat purring in my ears, his tone warm and fuzzy all over again, i began to fiddle with my fingers again, it was a habit i had as a kid and my parents never knew why, but now i know. I replied with a try-to-feel-good-after-a-embarrassing-night-smile, “Good morning, hahaha...”Curse my forever struggle, i can't even talk normally when I'm nervous, it's like a disease that will never be cured. “Hey, i know yesterday was all so sudden, but you're going to be fine.”He was going to grab my hand, but saw me fiddling with,it and decided not to hold my hand and rubbed my back, i never knew why he was so unique, he was a normal person, but his voice, his actions, it makes me wanna hug him like a fluffy marshmallow, and the best part: he wouldn't mind.
