“Manuela”

I woke up feeling the warmth of Flávio's body next to mine. His arms were around me, keeping me tightly close to him, who slept peacefully with a relaxed expression.

"What's bothering you, big guy?" I whispered to myself, looking at his handsome, serene face.

I got out of bed very slowly so as not to wake him. He needed to rest. I was in the kitchen having coffee and ready to leave for work when he appeared. He had just woken up, looking gorgeous with his messy hair and still sleepy eyes.

"Why didn't you wake me up, shorty?" He bent down and kissed my neck.

"Because you've been working too much and you need to rest," I said while wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Hmm... I need more time with my beautiful shorty." He had his head in the crook of my neck, giving me kisses that almost made me give up on going to work. - That would be great! But I have to work and I have class tonight.

- What time will I see you? – He said in a complaining tone.

- The early morning is all yours
