He actually thought I looked beautiful like this?

| awkwardly took the bouquet from him.

It was "Endless Summer," the symbol of everlasting love - my favorite before.

Leo used to say that having flowers around might bring pollen into the office, triggering Luna's allergies. So, we

hardly kept flowers at home, and | rarely received any from him.

It might sound ridiculous now, but back then, it really mattered to me.

| remember one time, | ordered flowers to surprise him, only to bump into Luna at the florist. She playfully

complained about her allergies and, as if on cue, reminded Leo of his busy schedule.

But then the surprise quickly turned into a panic.

Before | could take the flowers from Leo, he rushed Luna to the hospital as she fainted.

That bouquet of "Endless Summer" ended up shattered on the ground, along with my love.

"Elizabeth, since Leo's here, I'll leave you guys to it. We'll talk about the design drafts later," Rolin said

considerately as he stepped away.

| watched Rolin leave, absentmindedly noting that my drafts should be be ready the day after tomorrow. Lost in

thoughts, | almost missed Leo's next words.

"Beth... will you marry me?"
