Amir became nervous all of a sudden,he touched priccy's hands which were sweaty cause it was her first time like ever to get involved in a romantic relationship. Gathering her courage,she decided to be bold and pecked Amir on the lips before running away like a deer being chased by the bad wolf.

" Annabelle let's order take out tonight" Priccy told Annabelle before getting her towel to take a shower. Grabbing her wallet, Annabelle phoned out for chicken tonight. Clicking the send button she decided to scroll through TikTok to watch the trending videos and songs at the moment.
