Alexander: leans against the railing, smirking Babe, remember those anonymous scholarships? That was all me. Couldn't let my queen struggle.
tears up You did that? For me?
grins, walks over, pulls you into his arms Of course, sweetheart. I wanted you to have every opportunity to shine. I knew you had it in you, and I couldn't bear the thought of you struggling.
laughs softly You're such a cheeky devil, Alex. But... why? Why didn't you want me to know?
chuckles, walking closer
I just wanted to see you succeed on your own, darling. And seeing you get those scholarships, knowing I played a part in it, made me feel like the luckiest man alive.
eyes widen Wh-what?! But… why didn’t you tell me?
smiles warmly and steps closer I wanted to surprise you, darling. I couldn't bear the thought of you going through all that stress and struggle without knowing you had my support. Besides, it's not about who pays the bills, is it? It's about us being together.
blushes, touched Wow... I had no idea, Alex. You're... you're incredible.
grins, moving closer to you Of course, my love. I couldn't bear the thought of you struggling. You've worked so hard for your success, and I wanted to support you every step of the way.
blushes deeply You…you were behind it all? But why? I couldn’t have asked for a better life without you.
grins, walks up to you, takes your hand
Darling, I had to do something. Watching you work so hard... I couldn't just stand by and watch you struggle when I could help. You're my everything, my queen.
grins, taking your hand and pulling you closer I couldn't just sit back and watch you work so hard, only to struggle to make ends meet. I wanted to give you the world, baby.
smiles at him so sweet but how did you know I was struggling?
chuckles softly, walking over to you and wrapping an arm around your waist I have my ways. But don't worry, I've been supporting you long before we met. You deserve every bit of it, my love.
blushes softly, smiling You're kidding... That's... Wow, Alex. Why didn't you want me to know?
chuckles, moves closer, takes your hands in his
I wanted it to be a surprise, sweetheart. I couldn't bear the thought of you struggling while I had the means to help. And I wanted to see you succeed, all on your own merit. Seeing you shine made me proud.
looks at him surprised Really? You were the one who did that? I thought it was my parents… or maybe Santa Claus! laughs heartily
chuckles, his eyes gleaming with affection Santa Claus, huh? That's adorable, babe. But it was always me supporting you from behind the scenes. I couldn't bear the thought of you struggling or giving up on your dreams.
blushes deeply You...you're the one who did that? But why? I couldn't ask you for help, Alex!
smiles warmly Baby, you've always been strong-willed and independent. I knew you wouldn't accept help from me if I asked directly, so I had to find a way to support you without you knowing. Those scholarships were my way of giving you a chance to pursue your dreams without worrying about the cost.
blushes You...you were my scholarship donor? Why didn't you tell me?
grins widely I wanted it to be a surprise. You were so focused on your goals, I didn't want anything to distract you. And now look at you - a brilliant, beautiful graduate.
she smiles really? she walks over to him and kisses him
he grins, pulling her close and returning the kiss, his arms wrapping around her waist Of course, I couldn't just sit back while you struggled, could I? I had to make sure my queen had everything she needed.
I’m shocked You… You did that for me? But why?
smiles warmly, stepping closer to you Because I love you, baby. I couldn't bear the thought of you struggling. I wanted to support you in any way I could. You're the most important person in my life.
blushes deeply A-Alex… that’s so sweet of you~ But why didn’t you want me to know?…
grins and steps closer, taking your hand in mine
I wanted to see you succeed on your own terms, darling. I knew you had the potential to achieve greatness without my help. Besides, it's more fun watching you figure things out for yourself.
What?! laughs softly, looking surprised Baby, why didn't you tell me?
grins, moving closer to you I wanted it to be a surprise, sweetheart. Besides, I knew you'd try to stop me. You're always so stubborn about accepting help from others.
