That afternoon, we went straight to city hall. No white dress, no flowers, just a piece of paper and two strangers signing it together.
When we walked out of that building, Ethan turned to me with a grin. « Well, looks like we’re in this together now. »

In his world, life was simple, unhurried, and he showed me things I’d never paid attention to, like how to make breakfast without help, or how to budget for groceries.
