Review
I popped my first checking accounts using this type of branch a good several years back and its still the main branch that I visit. Often the staff listed below are very form and educated so I do appreciate that. Often the only problem to this kind of place is that these people have the old ATMs that only dispenses 20 dollars charges, which can always be a hassle and often the wrinkles can get super long at times in fact if there is satisfactory staff available, which is definitely weird to me.

I been recently with this standard bank with regard to the last 5 year's while using situation that Now i am going with this bsnk I actually not strongly suggested to no body since The spring if they pass that they new policy every payment that I have to carry out they over draft me personally for no reason for the reason that I always have cash in the account this loan provider is normally a froud in addition to the costumer service may do anything over it make sure you be careful. I have got to purchase a start due to the fact I have to to review it

Fine location. At times that could be stressful but it's manageable. Oftentimes not necessarily all atm's are operating at full potential. Executing business in here will be very swift dependent on the time associated with day in addition to 12 months.

To 2nd the earlier analyze. A person of the reasons that they got purge if the penny arcades was your inaccuracy of said equipment. At this point my account. I actually moved out and bought the own change counter and even rolls simply because they will have change like that. We just lately deposited $150 @ the Wall St. office and, even got cost-free rolls. I tried to the actual same here nevertheless wad told by this teller often the max gold coin deposit is $25. What exactly kinda junk is the fact that? They remove the adjust counter, now they limit the amount of I can put in? Shameful!
Review
If I can offer this place stop actors I would. Sad to say yelp doesn't allow that. I came here to use to the coin machine plus 50 percent way through the particular machine checking my gold coins that ended working. Whenever a good people from typically the bank came out to fix the machine I received some sort of paper stating of which I simply had $12. 24 cents. I find out I had 54 cash. I mean why will My spouse and i go to the bank to simply change twelve dollars. After some back and forth I had to leave this dump together with only 12 dollars. Perform yourself the favor together with go to apple standard bank if you need to use the lieu brewing system. Save yourself a good headache.

Theres a nice sized parking lot & drive thru. their right off Fordham. Typically the teller was really fine. No grievances this period
Review
If leaving no megastars was possible; My spouse and i completely might. I went throughout continue Friday, 11/8 to opened a whole new joint account. (Let's consider I at the moment currently have an acct with them and have had that for about 3-4years) We was welcome when My partner and i walked in which had been decent but as We proceeded to recommend all of them I desired to open a new account for my own spouse and I, also bringing up We already acquired an in service account having them. The woman offered my partner and I actually a very odd look and mentioned she had in order to talk ready manager; the woman then returned and informed me I could not be helped and should visit one other branch. I EXTREMELY truly feel I was discriminated against due to our appearance along with my spouses. I will by no means throughout my life be coming back again to this particular branch position and will be data a complaint of discrimination against the woman who put us away.
Overview
I sluggish program. Staff don't appear to care that right now there always a large line. A few are very unpleasant. Unhappy that I bank below. What good is all the advertising if the staff are certainly not maintaining the particular quality of service a person pleasure yourself in your own commercials. Unpleasant service.
Review
Where carry out I start? Impolite employees. Slow service. My spouse and i silently laid 45 minutes on a new series to make the simple deposit and even right now there were only 7 customers on the line!!!! SMH!!! Never coming back to this branch!!!
Review
My spouse and i used the gold coin games TD bank is offering in addition to was very frustrated. Intended for several years Everyday following work My spouse and i put loose coins into our gift basket and after thanksgiving we all often exchange it. Similar to a additional christmas financial savings. We often count it before the exchange. My kids love it. To cut to be able to chase we've ended keeping track of this calendar year with a good minor above $320. 00 within coins. When we exchanged that the machine stated to be able to keep placing coins although TD rep replace coin bag. Now i'm guessing that was full. In late rely, we only possessed some sort of shocking $181. 68. We have explained to the associate. that there was a shortage of above $140. 00. She has been shopping at me as in case I got trying to con the bank beyond money(which My spouse and i could understand) nonetheless not necessarily to say I had been comfortable. Her explanation had not been helpful at all. The woman only asked that We leave my own contact information and that when there had been an overage that they can give me a call. We only hope that they carry out right & that will his or her integrity speaks with regard to it self applied. Karma. To some people $140 will be not a lot of money but it's good deal to others. Really the basic principle. I actually hope they fix that issue because I may only imagine the volume of money that's not necessarily provided to the customers via this "COIN ARCADE".

Tango+Cash angst???? hhhhaaaa im posting this at 12:30 at night it is what it is
It was just hard sometimes, you know? Just... hard. Rough to deal with. Not fun. Gabe isn't sure how to describe the situation outside of that. After everything, when he'd asked Kiki if she was really into him- because he may not have been into her, but she was sweet and pretty and he could've seen settling down with her -she'd told him no. She was gay. Which was cool, because he got to respond with "no shit, I'm gay too," and they'd promptly formed the first official 'gay but we haven't told Ray' club. Which was sort of fun, but mostly just sucked.
Not Kiki, mind you. Kiki definitely didn't suck. She's probably the funniest person Gabe's ever met, with the prettiest smile, and he just knows Kiki'll make some gal the happiest in the world one day. When she's not living with Ray anymore, because her overprotective, overly stiff brother would flip his shit if she brought home a man, let alone a woman. He'd probably drop dead from shock, and as annoying as Ray can be, Kiki doesn't want that.
Gabe's problem, however, is that he likes Ray. Like-likes him. Like, Gabe would probably do anything Ray asked, would happily marry him, and maybe thinks about Ray when he jacks off. It's that bad, and it's killing him, because Ray is gorgeous and charming and genuinely funny when he loses the stick up his ass. Add to that the fact that Gabe spends ninety percent of his time around Ray between work and hanging out with Kiki, and Gabe's ready to drop off the face of the earth. 'Goodbye, world, it's been nice, but you really fucked me over with this one and I'm kinda done.'
He guesses he can put up with it, though, because Kiki is a goddamn miracle worker when it came to confidence. The whole disguising himself as a woman to escape thing had ripped open a door Gabe hadn't even known existed, and it had been Kiki who'd finally talked him into buying himself something- first lipstick, then a pair of pantyhose, up until they just kind of started shopping for dresses together. Let it be noted that Kiki has really, really good taste and Gabe definitely owes her a big one for all her help, and all the fun evenings her expertly selected outfits had lead to.
See, Gabe had thought he was coping with the whole huge crush on his aggressively heterosexual partner thing pretty well, until he'd accidentally moaned Ray's name while he was getting fucked. Which was uncomfortable for everyone involved, and lead to Gabe getting sent home to take a shower and rub one off where he can moan Ray's name without offending anyone. That evening was kind of a problem, and it just kept being a problem, because yeah, it was casual sex, no one gave a shit if you thought of someone else, but Gabe still found the conscious effort it took not to gasp and moan Ray's name out loud really pulled him out of the moment. Raymond Tango is ruining is goddamn sex life.
He explains this all to Kiki, who is thankfully beyond understanding- they share a laugh about how he's ruining both of their sex lives, and Gabe feels relaxed for the first time in a while. Then, she gives him advice he hadn't even considered an option. She says to take a break. Get some time off work, stay home, and don't think about Ray. Cut the exposure and relax. Gabe tells her that's exactly what he's going to do, thanks her about twenty five times, and hangs up to call the chief of police. He bargains his way into two weeks off with promises to take double shifts when he's back, and when it's all settled Gabe begins to go about relaxing.
What that winds up entailing is multiple six packs of beer and a constant, mild drunkenness that leaves him feeling warm while he lays on his sofa and does nothing. It's fucking fantastic, until Ray, ever the stiff and the worrywart, calls him. Once, on his third day out. Once the next day. Twice, two days later. Gabe ends up taking his phone off of the receiver because the phone ringing is stressing him out, and he really doesn't want to talk to Ray. His mild drunkenness is progressing towards somewhere right on the edge of blacking out, thanks to Ray. At least that problem's taken care of, and at least Gabe stocked up on booze.
It takes a whole five more days before Ray shows up, physically, at Gabe's apartment. Gabe's pretty sure it's Kiki that held Ray at bay for so long, and Gabe writes a note reminding himself to thank her when he sobers up enough to not sound like a giant idiot. He leaves it pinned to the fridge. When Gabe hears the buzzer, he groans. He doesn't want this, but, wordlessly, he lets Ray up. Fuck it, he's drunk and annoyed and if Ray wants to deal with him, so be it.
Ray comes in to berate him about dickholeish-ness and leaving right before they started a big bust, and Gabe, drunkenly, tells Ray to fuck off. Ray spits right back at him that Gabe is acting like an even bigger idiot than usual, that Ray had expected better behavior even from a lug like him. That Ray can't even believe Kiki would ever be interested in an obnoxious, drunken, dirty fool like Gabriel Cash. Which is what really set Cash off. He sputters, trying to find the right words to say, to rebuff Ray's oh-so stinging critiques. Gabe settles on glaring and stating, angrily, that he's gay.
Gabe slurs out that he's "fucking gay, you asshole" and he doesn't "even like Kiki like that, fuck you!" He downs the last of his beer, tossing the bottle to the floor and letting it shatter. Ray just stares at him, blankly, and that really only pisses Gabe off more.
"I was interested in you the whole time! But now I guess I know what you really think, huh? You fucking dickface." Gabe surges forward to grab Ray's collar, clumsily, stepping on the broken glass as he does. It stings like a bitch, but Gabe's running entirely on anger and beer and it doesn't really register. When Ray doesn't reply in a satisfactory time, Gabe tugs him down into a sloppy, equally aggressive kiss. It's unpleasant but Gabe refuses to back off, until Ray's hands plant firmly on his chest and shove him back. His foot lands back in the broken glass, and this time tears start to prick at the corners of Gabe's eyes. Just because of the glass. It's just that.
Not the way Ray looks at him coolly, distantly, like regarding an insect. Not the way Ray tells him, voice flat, that he's straight, and even if he wasn't he'd never be interested in someone like Gabe. Ray turns, leaving Gabe to clean up the mess left behind. Vision clouded with tears, from the glass, Gabe cleans up the broken bottle and pulls the two shards from the bottom of his foot, bandaging the cuts. He wipes his nose on the back of his hand and drinks until he blacks out.
Gabe stops spending time with Kiki. She calls him a lot, which is nice, and she makes sure only to call him when Ray's out of the house. He appreciates it. She asks if he'd like to meet for coffee sometime. He suggests pizza and a movie at his place, so they can really talk. Kiki agrees, and Gabe can hear the smile in her voice. Gabe really loves her. He just wishes he loved her the same way he used to love her brother.
At work, Gabe transfers to a different division, starts taking only late shift. It's easier that way. He's on patrol, away from Ray, and he starts to find his groove again. Starts to feel like a real person. It's nice. Not that he doesn't miss the big busts, the excitement, but... Gabe knows this is better. For everyone. Gabe never asks about Ray, and as far as Gabe knows Ray never asks about him. Which is good. It's good. Really, this is what's best, it is.
Gabe goes back to cruising, shit he hasn't done since he was young, fresh out of college. He mostly just stuck to the bars, but he's feeling adventurous. Everything else in his life is getting revamped, why shouldn't he change this up too? Sure, Gabe knows it can be risky- he hasn't forgotten those poor kids who got murdered, including that author, and the cop who escaped trial. Gabe knows what can happen. He also knows what places get searched most often. He can avoid getting arrested and have a good time somewhere other than a motel or alley.
He comes into work one day with a split lip. Technically there's a black eye too, though he covered that up with makeup. His uniform hides the rest of the bruising. No one really asks about it, Gabe came in a lot with weird bruises or shit like this. The only one who'd recognize Gabe shouldn't have gotten the busted lip on the job is Ray. Unfortunately, Gabe's early arriving and Ray's late leaving. It's the first time seeing his old partner in a month, and Gabe begs god to call down some lightning and blow Gabe out of existence.
No lightning comes. Gabe ducks his head, silently grabs what he needs, and seats himself at his desk. He stares pointedly at the files in front of him, not really reading but still refusing to look up. If he makes any more eye contact with Ray, Gabe'll throw himself out of the window. Thankfully, Ray leaves after a minute of staring. Gabe thought he was going to lose his goddamn mind. He doesn't get much paperwork done that night, and when Gabe finally crashes into bed, he can't even fall asleep. Gabe settles on pouring himself a drink and forgetting.
He could say it all ends well. That eventually they reach an uneasy truce that turns into love and it's all sunshine and smiles and happily ever afters. Gabe fantasizes about that, sometimes. Daydreams about what it would've been like to marry Ray Tango. They're just daydreams, though, and Gabe can't live in them forever. After almost a year of avoiding Ray like the plague, Gabe gave in. Resigned from the force, packed his things up, and put down the rent on a little apartment on the other side of the country. The last time Gabe say Raymond Tango was when he stopped by to give his tearful goodbye to Kiki. She'd told him never to forget her, and he promised. Said that he loves her. She nodded, cupped his cheek, and told him she wished he could've found happiness here. Ray's gaze is cold. He stiffens at her words. Gabe nods, hugs her again, and leaves.
Gabe gets a job on the police force in his new city, working traffic. It's nothing like before, but it's just the change Gabe needed. He moves up in the ranks, makes new friends, and saves up the money to adopt a dog. He's got a good thing going. Still, sometimes, Gabe wonders what Ray's doing. Imagines him, happily married, with a wife, two kids, and a dog. White picket fence and everything. Happily heterosexual. Imagines Ray coming home from work to a cold beer and a hot meal, little daughter and little son excitedly telling him about their day, how school went. Gabe can picture it perfectly. Gabe lays down in bed, his dog next to him, and tries to picture something else. Tries not to hate himself.
In reality, Raymond Tango? Wonder cop and brother to the only other person Gabe ever loved? Ray's not happy either.
No one is.

"BamBam, I brought Youngjae-hyung!"
"Oh! Gyeomie!" BamBam, who was wearing a cheetah print shirt and tight red pants greeted the two. Once the front door opened, the music coming from the speakers became louder. Youngjae winced slightly as he stepped indoors, taking off his shoes. He looked around the living room and was relieved to see only four or five other people walking around or sitting on the floor.
Youngjae had no idea who the other people were. They were probably in BamBam’s group of 'cool' partygoers, judging from how they talked quietly and even some were still wearing sunglasses indoors. Someone sitting on the couch with his legs crossed waved his hand at Youngjae, although he couldn't tell who it was because of the sunglasses.
"Wow...! Hyung, look at all this food!" Yugyeom suddenly called out from the dining table, staring at the various bowls of food in admiration. He stuffed some popcorn into his mouth and gestured for Youngjae to hurry and come over.
"This sure is a lot," Youngjae breathed out, holding onto his elbow.
"Aren't you going to have some?"
"...No, i—" Youngjae started, but the words written on the note popped up in his head.
more than happy to see you eat.
Youngjae grabbed a plastic cup and filled it with jelly beans. He picked up a pink-colored one and threw it in his mouth, his cheeks turning into the same pink hue as the candy. It had been a while since he'd eaten any sort of sweets.
Too bad he didn't realize Im Jaebum was watching him from the crowd, sighing over his cuteness.
"Hyung, hyung, come meet these guys!" BamBam ushered Youngjae to the living room where three others were sitting on the couch, seeming much older than the both of them.
"This is Rap Mon, Def Soul, and S.Coups," BamBam named one-by-one as he pointed to the corresponding person sitting on the couch. Youngjae looked at the three and then back at his friend as though he was crazy. He did just name extremely odd titles for each of them, after all. "They're just artist names. They don't want me to reveal their real names apparently."
"Hey."
"Hi."
Each one of them sat in a way that made Youngjae feel intimidated and want to sink into the carpet beneath him. The one that caught his attention the most was the guy in the middle, apparently known as 'Def Soul.' He was wearing sunglasses for whatever reason and had at least six piercings in his ears. curling his lips into an unexpectedly friendly smile, 'Def Soul' waved his hand to Youngjae. He hesitantly waved back and also bowed his head politely.
"Yugyeomie, can you turn the music down a bit?" BamBam asked. Diligently, the tall maknae went over to the speakers and turned the volume down. Youngjae sat on the carpet while hugging his knees, being sure to be close to Yugyeom who had returned from his trip to the speakers.
"Hey Def Soul, this is your jam, isn't it?" Rap Mon snickered while elbowing his friend. tThe song playing was “Touch My Body” by Sistar, and S.Coups laughed loudly while clapping his hands. As someone who was considered the master of girl group dances, BamBam immediately stood up and started over-exaggeratedly dancing to it.
Def Soul eventually sang to the song despite seeming to regret every second of it. What surprised Youngjae the most was how amazing his singing voice is. The rather high pitched tone was such a gap from his deeper voice when talking, and Youngjae felt that was strangely attractive.
"God, BamBam. Why are your legs the same size as my arms?" S.Coups said with a groan while watching him dance and wiggle his legs around. Everyone in the room sort of groaned, too, probably thinking the exact same thing.
"What are your secrets? I want to be less fat than I already am," he remarked while rolling his eyes, taking ahold of his own thigh and visually comparing with BamBam's sticks. Youngjae's grasp around his knees tightened uncomfortably as he stared at his own legs.
Fat?
Suddenly, his head was feeling dizzy. He had just remembered something unpleasant whispered to him—
"Choi Youngjae, you still have baby fat from primary school?"
"You fat manchild."
"No one likes fat kids like you."
Knocking over the cup of jelly beans, Youngjae made a run for it to the bathroom. Both BamBam and Yugyeom looked confused, the taller deciding to follow him. The bathroom door was locked shut by the time he caught up to Youngjae.
"Youngjae-hyung?" Yugyeom knocked on the door. "Are you okay? Do you have an emergency?"
"Go away," Youngjae replied, his voice muffled presumably because he was hiding his face. He didn't want to hear any of his friends take pity on him. He wanted to lay on the cold bathroom floor until the next morning.
From behind the door, he could hear someone else's footsteps and whispers that he couldn’t understand properly. One of them left, and Youngjae shut his eyes, believing it was BamBam here to persuade him out the bathroom.
But it wasn't?
"Hey," an unexpectedly low voice called out from the other side of the door, causing Youngjae to look up in alert. His breathing became a bit heavier in embarrassment, realizing that it was one of those guys with artist names. Meanwhile, Jaebum was leaning against the door with his arms crossed over his chest.
"I'm glad to see that you finally ate."
Youngjae's eyes widened when hearing so. The note he received that day at school appeared in his mind again; it mentioned how the writer might see him at BamBam's party. Was that the person who would always notice and care about how he was doing during lunch? He wanted to burst the door open and finally find out who the culprit was, but his legs were numb. Hootsteps headed away from the bathroom, indicating that person was already leaving.
🍽
It took another minute for Youngjae to finally muster up his courage to come out of his hiding spot. He looked horrible, with his nose tinted red and his eyes dark as if from lack of sleep. Once he was back in the living room, he could see that everyone was still sitting in their original positions. He had no idea who the person was. He could simply ask, but he found that to be embarrassing for himself.
"Hyung, are you alright? Do you want to stay the night here?" BamBam asked, his voice laced with concern. Youngjae's eyes wavered to the three on the couch, especially to the one wearing sunglasses. He was sitting with his legs spread wide, both elbows resting on top of his thighs. Most noticeable of all, he was looking directly at Youngjae—at least it seemed like it, though he didn't know for sure because of the shades.
"...Is it Friday?" Youngjae asked, dazed. Yugyeom nodded his head. "I'll stay, then." He took his spot beside Yugyeom again. Having a friend who was almost two meters tall felt comforting sometimes. 'Def Soul' went to the kitchen in order to grab a drink of soda for himself.
On his trip back, though, he was holding two cups. Youngjae didn't notice at first, but 'Def Soul' placed a full cup of jelly beans next to him before sitting back down on the couch.
Youngjae shyly opened his mouth to thank him for the snack until 'Def Soul' put an index finger to his own lips to make a shushing gesture.
🍽
It was around midnight, and Youngjae was still wide awake.
The spare bed that he was offered to sleep on for the night smelled a lot like BamBam, and he didn't know how to feel about it.
Every time he closed his eyes in attempt to sleep, he would think about what had happened that day. His mind refused to fall unconscious until it had its curiosity had been fulfilled. Youngjae's legs hung over the side of the bed before he walked out the dark room and to the living room.
"BamBam?" he asked softly.
"Yeah, hyung?" the other's eyes blinked. Youngjae took the spot next to his friend and stared at his lap. BamBam wrapped an arm around his shoulders.
"Who were those three guys?"
"The three dudes on the couch? I met them at a studio sometime last year. I was just walking around to find Yugyeomie when they told me to freestyle rap out of nowhere. I guess they liked it," he explained with a casual shrug. "Why? You have a crush on one of them?"
Youngjae immediately shook his head, making an x sign with his arms. "I don't even know their names. Their real names."
"Well, that's a shame." BamBam made a face shrug this time. "Def Soul seemed to be really worried about you. I think you guys would be a nice couple."
He rolled his eyes at that, although he was a tiny bit flustered. Despite having no clue what Def Soul even looked like—he could be a shady old man for all Youngjae knew—the idea of dating him was something he found appealing. The minutiae of him smiling welcomingly or getting him a new cup of candy felt oddly attractive to Youngjae. Is it really possible for someone to be so handsome at heart?
"I'll go sleep now," Youngjae said while patting his friend's head affectionately.
"Sleep tight, Jaejae-hyung." BamBam grinned and dabbed. "Wanna hang out with us tomorrow? We're planning to go out for some ice cream."
"With the, uh... guys whose names I don't know?"
"Yeah. You should come with us."
Youngjae waved his hand as he disappeared down the hallway, putting up a cool act. Once he was out of BamBam's radar of sight, his cheeks flushed bright pink as he plopped down on the bed.
Why did he keep thinking about how he wanted it to be a date?
🍽
"Snzz... zzzzzz..."
"Oh my god, hyung. can you at least stay awake for one hour?" BamBam said with a sigh, making sure to drive responsibly by keeping his eyes on the road. "You sleep even worse than my sister does."
Youngjae sank into his seat even more, nodding his head to the song currently playing in the car.
A few minutes later, the two arrived at the shopping mall that held the promised ice cream store. since it was a saturday morning, there were quite a lot of people walking around. They eventually met up with the rest of the group, but there was one fewer person than Youngjae had remembered there to be.
"Where's Scoops?" BamBam asked while rolling up his sleeves. Youngjae turned to the other direction in order to sneeze briefly, and he swore someone said 'bless you' quietly.
"His girlfriend or something just snatched him away on our way here. I tried telling him bros before hoes but, you know," Rap Mon shrugged his shoulders as he explained. Suddenly, BamBam dashed up to the taller's side and whispered something into his ear. The other slowly nodded his chin in agreement as Youngjae feared what would happen soon.
"Hyung and I are going to look at some clothes," BamBam said with a wink towards Youngjae, whose ears were almost pink. "You two should wait at the ice cream place until we're done! Bye!" The Thai boy shouted while waving his arm, already heading off to search for a boutique of some sort. Left speechless, Youngjae gazed at the two snickering as they strolled away.
"You gonna come or not?" A low voice called out to him, causing him to freeze in surprise. The culprit was Def Soul, whom he admittedly didn't notice until just now since he was so quiet. Youngjae nodded meekly and caught up to him, awkwardly walking besides him.
Im Jaebum was satisfied with himself—he had his boy crush almost literally clinging onto him.
"Do you have an eating disorder?" Def Soul asked out of nowhere, keeping his voice down knowing it was a sensitive topic. Ever so coolly, he stuffed his hands into his ripped jeans pockets and looked forward. He wore a baggy, beige turtleneck sweater which seemed to conceal his identity even more. Youngjae bit on his lower lip.
"I... um..." His hand, covered completely by his hoodie's sleeve, lifted up to cover his mouth. It was a subconscious sign that he didn't want to talk about it. Somehow, the various people walking by were shooting judgmental glares at Youngjae—well, at least they were in his mind. Again, just like the night before's party, his breathing was becoming rushed and he felt as if he was suffocating.
That suffocating feeling went straight away once Def Soul put his arm around his shoulders.
"It's alright," he whispered and continued to casually stroll down the hall. The ice cream shop was nearby already as the red hue spread across Youngjae's cheeks never disappeared. Def Soul's arm left the younger's shoulders and disappointingly took the warmth from his skin. He opened the door for Youngjae, who couldn't bear to look at him directly as he walked in.
Def Soul patted Youngjae's arm and pointed to an empty table before approaching it, sitting down with a sigh. Although it resembled a date too much, Youngjae knew he'd have to sit across from him to avoid making things even more awkward. His hands were folded politely in his lap.
"I'll go order something. What do you want to get?" Def Soul asked, pushing up his sunglasses.
"...Vanilla ice cream," Youngjae requested without looking up from his lap. Nodding, Def Soul stepped to the counter while staring at the menu. A few people sitting in the shop had their gaze fixed on the rare sight of a celebrity-like customer.
Youngjae hid behind the table and his cheeks became even more flushed. He realized that he didn't hand Def Soul any money to pay for his food. Meekly, he peered over to the male ordering the ice cream for him.
Why is he fine with paying for him?
Why is so nice to him in the first place?
Something about that subtle kindness was so familiar, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
