it´s cute to see your intent gaze, behind those crookedly perched glasses, devoid of the skeptical, guarded trying-too-hard-to-be-adult.
it's cute to see the loose hair with that faint frizz, escaping the confines of that expensive straight perm you convinced your mom to give you, just so you could look sixteen.
