***********

   Wednesday. 7:10 a.m. Like every morning, Sherwin spent a solid fifteen minutes in front of the mirror in his room, trying to control his hair, and just like every morning, he gave up the battle against that rebellious, fluffy orange mass. Meanwhile, Shirley was flying around, awaiting the time to leave with Sher.

   Resigned, the redhead got ready, filling his backpack with his school books, and then his cell phone rang, announcing a new WhatsApp message. He swiped down the notification bar, to check out who was that message from.

Mom💋: ▶ 00:11 (voice note)

   “Baby, I'm sorry, I really had to leave early for work today. Don't fall asleep again, huh? I made your breakfast, it's on the kitchen table. I love you. Have a nice day”

   “Okay mom, have a nice day too, I love you, mwah” Sherwin replied in another voice note.

   He just exited the app, and placed his cell phone on the desk, when it ringed again.

Jon😍❤: ▶ 00:07 (voice note)

   “Good morning angel. Please let me know if you want me to pick you up to school.”

   Shirley began to scream and writhe all around the room after hearing his voice on Sher's phone.

   “Good morning, sweetheart. Yes, come here in fifteen minutes, I'm not ready yet” Sherwin replied to his boyfriend. He didn't even have time to exit the app again, when a new message arrived.

   Alex😄: ▶ 00:03 (voice note)

   “Well, it seems like nobody feels like typing any message today” Sher said out loud, laughing alone at his own comment.

   “Freckle-boy! Are you going to school today?”

   “Of course I'm going to school, silly. Today we have the History and Geography reports. Why are you asking anyway?” said the redhead in another voice note. Then he looked up and found out that both reports were still on his desk, so he hurriedly put them in his backpack. Thank God he remembered on time, he would have had a panic attack if he didn't carry them.

   Sherwin walked down the stairs, his backpack on his back (and Shirley comfortly tucked into one of the side pockets), and then he had a new voice note from Alex.

   “Well, I... I should tell you at school. It'll be better if it's a face-to-face thingy, tee hee. See you there”

   Although it was hard to hold back  his curiosity, he decided not to respond any more and have his breakfast. Jon would arrive in about ten minutes.

   The mug of warm chocolate and the toast were reduced to nothing at that time, and as he cleaned the table, he heard the doorbell ringing. He ran to where he left his backpack and went to the door.

   And like every morning, Shirley became desperate when she felt Jonathan was close. As soon as Sherwin opened the door, the small, adorable vital organ bursted out of the backpack pocket, and rubbed against the brunette's cheek. Jon laughed out loud for that cute welcoming.

   “Ugh, Shirley please!” the redhead scolded, covering his face with both hands. He was completely flushed, he hated when Shirley forced him to leave his feelings so exposed.

   “Don't worry, this actually makes me feel loved” Jonathan smiled, cupping the heart between his hands. He took a step forward, and tenderly placed his lips on Sherwin's blushed cheek. Then he turned to the heart in his hands “And I have one more for you, cutie” he said, placing a second kiss on the little heart. And since the heart was a part of Sherwin, he could feel it too.
