He continued to explain, "I've been out for a day and a night already, and I'm worried my grandma will be concerned. I rarely get to visit home, so let me spend some time with her first, and I'll make it up to you later, okay?"
While saying this, he leaned into Ethlando's embrace, affectionately coaxing him.
When he mentioned "later," Ethlando's emotions finally eased a bit. The thought of their endless future together made him want to hold Halueth even tighter.
"Then take me with you." With a height difference of almost 15 centimeters between them, Ethlando lowered his head to kiss Halueth. "I don't want to be apart from you."
He was determined and showed no signs of wanting to compromise.
Halueth buried his face in Ethlando's chest. After some consideration, he raised his head and said, "Alright, let's go home together then."
Grandma was getting older, and the only thing she hoped for was that he would find someone to spend his life with.
