“Life, as it so often does, wasn’t always gentle or easy. There were moments when pride and unspoken fears quietly pulled us apart, sending us down separate paths. Months turned into years, and though the search for love continued, the city felt too vast, and my heart too weary to wander alone. Yet no matter how far I strayed, one truth echoed within me — to return. To return to her. With all the courage I could gather and a heart filled with quiet hope, I chose her once more. And this time, I chose her for a lifetime.”
