Chapter 153: Write our wishes
"Let’s go over there!" Amelie exclaimed, her eyes lighting up as she pointed toward the glass bridge arching gracefully over the stream below.
As they strolled onto the bridge, stopping at its center, Amelie took a moment to admire their surroundings. She noticed how couples nearby were holding delicate paper lanterns, some scribbling wishes or names onto their surfaces with quiet smiles.
"Wait here for a moment," Gabriel said gently, offering her a quick smile before stepping away.
Left alone, Amelie approached the glass railing, leaning slightly as she peered down at the stream below. The crystal-clear water shimmered faintly, catching the early hints of dusk. "I wonder if the water will start to glow as night falls," she murmured to herself, her reflection wavering softly on the surface.
A sudden voice broke her thoughts. "Excuse me, could you take our picture?"
Amelie turned to see a young woman standing beside her with a camera in hand. "Of course," she said, accepting the device with a warm smile. She snapped a few pictures, ensuring the couple looked just right.
"These are perfect! Thank you," the woman beamed, showing the photos to her mate, who nodded in approval.
"Are you here with someone?" the woman asked curiously.
"Yes, with me," came a familiar voice.
Amelie turned her head to find Gabriel standing close behind her, his arm sliding around her waist with possessiveness.
"If you’d like, we could take a photo of you two as well," the woman offered graciously.
