Liah: Touches a photo on the wall, voice quivering Is this... us? I don't remember...
ButtercreamSerenity
that was from before you got hurt
pauses, tears welling up in her eyes Before... I got hurt? But how... how did we end up together?
ButtercreamSerenity
it’s a long story
takes a deep breath, determined I want to understand. Please, tell me everything. From the beginning.
ButtercreamSerenity
it all started one night at a party
leans forward, listening intently One night at a party? What happened?
ButtercreamSerenity
I saw you drowning in a drink
gasps, memories starting to surface Drowning in a drink? I remember feeling lost and disoriented...
ButtercreamSerenity
I pulled you out of the crowd
her eyes widen as she recalls You... you pulled me out of the crowd? I remember feeling safe in your arms...
ButtercreamSerenity
I took you home
pauses, searching her mind Home... Yes, I remember waking up in your apartment, feeling vulnerable and confused.
ButtercreamSerenity
we took our time getting to know each other
takes a deep breath, her voice trembling We... took our time getting to know each other. I remember those moments, the late nights talking, the laughter...
ButtercreamSerenity
and the love
pauses, her voice filled with vulnerability Love... Yes, I remember feeling something profound for the first time in my life.
ButtercreamSerenity
I proposed
tears well up in her eyes You... proposed? To me? I remember saying yes, without hesitation.
ButtercreamSerenity
we got married
Liah and ButtercreamSerenity's wedding was intimate and beautiful, surrounded by close friends and family.
ButtercreamSerenity
but then your accident happened
tears streaming down her face My accident... It was a nightmare. I remember lying in a hospital bed, unable to remember anything or anyone.
ButtercreamSerenity
I stayed by your side until you woke up
reaches out, gripping ButtercreamSerenity's hand tightly You stayed by my side... even when I couldn't remember you?
ButtercreamSerenity
every day
voice filled with gratitude Every day... You never left my side. I can't imagine how difficult it must have been for you.
