“I don’t care! Get off of me!”

But instead of doing that, she just hugged hter “No way! You’re so warm Ero Ero… like a teddy bear! Let’s just stay here for a while like this, please?”

“I don’t want to- I said I’! Get- off- of- me… I really will throw you off of me! One! Two!”

“Ero-ero Stay Please? I’ll tell you things to speed up your mission,” she pleaded, a pleased look on her face, and while I wanted to throw her off even ave in, but not without a glare “Fine! Tss!”

“Yay! Ero-ero, do you know that the heart was 10 percent red? You gained 5 for finding me a shelter, and another 5 for the food but because you cursed, 1 was taken off of it”

“Then how is it 10 if soot deducted? Shouldn’t it be 9 instead… do you even kno to do math? Tss!”

She giggled “Well, you did choose to stay bysoet a percent added, Kuya Teddy Bear”

I gave her a glare “Can you stop giving me nicknames!? And don’t call me Kuya! Moreover, didn’t I say I’m not a teddy bear!?”

She stuck out her tongue “You are older than h, you’re already 18 years old! I’m just 16 years old, so I’ll call you Kuya Teddy Bear!”

“Tss!” I stopped arguing with her, I already kne insisistent she could be

“Kuya Teddy Bear, do you still go to school?”

“No, I don’t”

“Why? Did you graduate already?”

I burst out laughing “Graduate? Me, graduate? Nice one! I couldn’t even get out of highschool!”

“Hey! Don’t talk about yourself like that”

“I can feel it, Kuya Teddy Bear”

“Feel what!? Can you just let go of me!?”

“You don’t feel loved, you feel so alone so you’re like that You try to hide your loneliness by acting tough and wild”
