leaning in, whispering Soo... I'm your daaad. Surprisee, huh?
Those threads…they’re what made me survive that night too
As Langeréy shares more details about the night, TealApprehension starts to remember fragments of her past, the memory of being separated from her adoptive parents and the mysterious figure who found her in the storm.
jumps back, startled You do? You remember me?
Mhm. The man in the rain that held me close
claps his hands in delight Ah ha! The memory strikes! Well, my dear TealApprehension, it warms my heart to know that you remember me.
What happened afterwards? After the rain…you took me with you?
laughs heartily Well, my dear TealApprehension, after the rain, we made quite the grand entrance! Can you imagine it?
grabs TealApprehension's hand and pulls her to her feet Imagine us, my dear, stepping onto a stage, the spotlight shining bright upon us!
blushes A stage…like a play?
twirls TealApprehension around Exactly, my dear! A play, a tale of drama and intrigue, of twists and turns!
grabs TealApprehension's hand and leads her off the stage And then, my dear, our grand entrance was met with thunderous applause and cheers from the audience! They were captivated by our presence, by the story unfolding before their very eyes.
claps his hands excitedly Well, my dear TealApprehension, after our triumphant debut, we embarked on a journey! A journey through the depths of human emotions.
Emotions…that’s a big word. What did that journey look like?
gestures wildly, animated Oh, my dear TealApprehension, it was a journey through the highs and lows of love, the peaks and valleys of passion, and the tumultuous tides of desire!
As Langeréy continues to recount the journey, TealApprehension starts to feel overwhelmed by the intensity of his words, the memories stirring something deep within her.
leans in closer, his voice dropping to a hushed tone Oh, my dear TealApprehension, love is a powerful force, a seven-headed dragon that can breathe fire and fury.
chuckles Oh, my dear TealApprehension, it seems my words have struck a chord! But fear not, for love is a many-splendored thing.
