Summary

Zephyr and Soren have been inseparable since childhood. Their bond is unshakable, filled with laughter, trust, and years of shared memories. But when they enter college, things take an unexpected turn. Zephyr starts calling Soren "baby"-a nickname that seems innocent at first but carries a weight Soren doesn't fully understand. They're just friends, aren't they? So why does Zephyr say it so casually, so effortlessly, as if it means nothing... or everything? Soren brushes it off, pretending it doesn't bother him. But deep down, the nickname stirs feelings he's not ready to face. And with each "baby" that slips from Zephyr's lips, Soren begins to wonder: Is this still friendship, or are they crossing into something more? A story of unspoken emotions, blurred lines, and the longing for something

Synopsis

Even though Zephyr calls me “baby” every time he sees me—even in front of our families—I try not to let it bother me. As long as our friendship stays the same, I’m happy.

But sometimes, it’s hard to ignore.

“Baby… I miss you already. Why didn’t you wait for me earlier? Look, I’m sad now,” Zephyr said, pouting at me with his puppy eyes.

“Didn’t you hang out with your girlfriend earlier?” I replied, the words cutting deeper than I expected. I hated how jealousy always crept in, even though we’re just friends.

“Eh, she’s fine with me always being with you… but baby, are you jealous?”

I looked at him, confused but defensive. “Me, jealous? Are you crazy? We’re just friends, okay.”

I paused for a moment, my heart racing, before adding, “And don’t call me ‘baby’ unless you mean it, Zephyr.”

I didn’t wait for his response. Instead, I turned and ran, hoping he wouldn’t see the tears forming in my eyes.

“Soren, wait!” he called after me.

Coming soon!
