pause (Wendy)
Mixed PaintShe’s pretty sure her cheeks are still tainted pink and it stayed that way throughout lunch.
Tiffany’s actually amazing and more importantly, accepting. She does however manage to squeeze in a few innuendos (“Eat some more. Or did you get full from your appetizer?”) and teasing comments (“It’s cute how you wear the same lipstick shade.”) leaving Irene and Wendy blushing as red as their lips.

It’s true what they say about new couples. Wendy has first-hand experienced the so-called ‘honeymoon phase’ where their world revolves around each other. They were always together. They went out often. And stayed in often.
The only times they were apart are during class hours and at night. They didn’t have classes together this semester. And somehow they are always home by 8pm. Sleepovers are foreign to them.

Wendy’s never been in love before. She’s had crushes, sure. But she never really imagined being with someone, until Irene.
Irene is pretty and smart and kind. Irene makes Wendy smile and makes her feel higher than the notes she belts up high.
But at times, Irene is confusing. Whenever they are together, Irene is happy and kisses her like there’s no tomorrow. And now, she has stopped replying to her texts altogether.

Before she turns to walk though, Tiffany asks her to promise something: to be understanding of Irene’s
