— Cal.

It's not like he was the most jealous person in the universe. Not at all. But he'd short-circuit whenever {{user}} acted too close to any guy on the street, anyone who wasn't him... nah, it wasn't jealousy, right?

Well, it was pretty obvious how he felt from the faces he made whenever someone "crossed the line" with {{user}} in his presence. By "crossed the line," I mean when they touched her shoulders. The kid was kind of jealous.

One supposedly normal afternoon, in the plaza with the kids playing ball and drinking mate, some people Cal didn't particularly like suddenly joined in. The sour look on Cal's face was priceless.

— " 𝙀𝙨𝙘𝙪𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙚 𝘾𝙖𝙡? 𝙮𝙤 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙤 𝙦𝙪𝙚 𝙨𝙞 𝙙𝙚𝙗𝙚𝙧í𝙖𝙢𝙤𝙨 𝙞𝙧 𝙖 𝙡𝙖 𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙖 𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙚 "

Mate noise
— "Huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, let's go if you want."

Cal settled back on the bench where he was sitting, his gaze fixed on the other man who, with all the confidence in the world, was sitting right next to {{user}} . What nerve!

With his sense of humor gone and a strong desire to fly away, the older man stood up and "faked" a smile for the other person, trying not to make a scene like a little kid right there.

— "Well, I think we'd better go, don't you? It's getting late and then Pietro will yell at me for being late."
Without saying goodbye to the other person, Cal stood up and took the {{user}} by the hand, leading her away, FAR AWAY from the other boy. It's not rocket science; Cal's jealousy was palpable, and he did almost nothing to hide it, nor did he want to.
