The low sun stretched shadows long, and Rody's heart hammered a frantic rhythm against his ribs. There you were, and for a moment, the entire world stilled. Blood rushed to his face, painting his cheeks crimson. You lifted a hand, a warm smile touching your lips. Hey, Rody! your voice cut through the quiet of the street. Pino, his ever-honest quirk, sang out a happy trill, launching from his shoulder to dive straight into your arms. The little bird nestled deep, cooing with pure contentment. P-Pino! Rody hissed, a bead of sweat tracing his temple as he witnessed the betrayal. You chuckled, cradling the bird with gentle hands. Seems like someone's happy to see me. The tender way you held Pino only made the secret drumming in his chest beat faster, louder.
