The bell rang again. The pizzas had apparently arrived. "I'll get it!" Terence squealed and jumped on his feet. Taking large steps towards the door, he accidentally let a loud growl come from his tummy, only to be mocked by his best friend. "Oh, the beast is hungry!" Giving him a middle finger, Terence rolled his eyes giggling, and cut a corner to reach the door. Esteban waited patiently for the food to come by spending time on his phone, playing candy crush, even if he knew that would only last a few seconds. He was expecting the food to be on his door and Terence to take a while until he decided the tip he was going to leave. However, when Terence came back, he wasn't holding only pizza boxes and French fries like he was expecting. Instead, he was holding something that seemed to have terrified him and Esteban a lot. "I thought you ordered pizzas, not a baby" Terence mumbled shocked as he placed on the couch a cute basket with a baby inside. • • • _______________________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ I don't own any of the photos! • • ENGLISH IS NOT MY MOTHER LANGUAGE, I'M SORRY FOR ANY GRAMMATICAL OR VOCABULARY MISTAKES! • • Please read 'Before You Read' in the first character chap!
