yes please do tell us what you are keeping secret
takes a deep breath, his voice trembling It's... it's about a woman. A woman who captivates me in ways I never thought possible. Her beauty, her grace...
runs his fingers through his hair, frustrated Dammit! I never thought I'd feel this way. This passion, this longing...
do you know if she feels the same way?
paces back and forth, his voice filled with frustration How could she not? But how can I be sure? I've spent countless nights dreaming of her...
maybe you should talk to her and ask her

do you have any details about the garden?
