STORY

Her first encounter with you...

Her first lesson in love, a topic she’s keen to study.

The more time she spends with you, the more she grows to love you.

The nickname she chooses to call you. The little jokes you tease into being together...

Every small conversation becomes something special.

Whether you’re alone or in public...

The things you whisper to each other take on new meanings.

One day she might change her hairstyle, a brave move just to see your reaction...

“Do you think it looks good on me?”

“Maybe this hairstyle’s a little bold?”

“Do you prefer me with my hair down or in a ponytail?

“So, how about it? Does this do it for you?”

How you react, of course, is up to you.

The more you two spend time together, the deeper the love between you grows...

That’s what Study § Steady is about.

When you walk home holding hands all the way... or find yourselves alone together...

Exchange gifts for Christmas... or listen as a pair to the New Year’s Eve bells...

Whatever the story, you’ll learn of a love that’s all your own.

A study of two...
