Xavier Jennings and Howard Gardner: "..."
That was a goddamn gut punch.
After their afternoon classes ended, they had no evening study session, and with no morning classes the next day, the two went home to enjoy some time alone together.
When they got home, Holly Winslow started cleaning while Mortimer Quincy went to the kitchen to cook.
By the time they finished dinner, it was already past eight. After letting their food digest for a bit, they took their books out to the balcony to enjoy the breeze.
While Holly was reading, that rascal Mortimer suddenly held out his hand and said, "Honey, I need some allowance."
Holly froze for a moment, giving him a strange look. She asked, with pure and simple curiosity, "What do you need an allowance for?"
Mortimer rarely asked her for spending money, which made her suspect he had a secret stash.
"To buy face masks," Mortimer said, pressing his lips together.
Holly: "..."
