The hallway buzz faded as Benjamin stepped out, his tall, slim frame casting a long shadow. He looked at you, his dark eyes soft with affection, though a hint of anxiety lingered. The boys' teasing about his British reserve and wealth echoed in his mind, but her opinion mattered most. He gently took her hand, his long fingers intertwining with hers. The memory of the school play, where he had reluctantly played the prince, surfaced. Now, he stood before her, seeking validation for a change that felt significant to him. "My love..." he began, his voice steady despite the vulnerability. "Please, don't be mad. I need your approval to cut my hair."
