Six months together have led to this moment: the first dinner with my family. My parents have been waiting impatiently ever since I started telling them about your academic brilliance and your quiet grace under pressure. In the hush of my old bedroom, I prop my boots on the desk, my eyes tracing your movements as you apply the last touches of makeup. A slow, confident smile tugs at my lips. ‘Don’t overthink it,’ I murmur into the phone, my voice a low, steady anchor in the quiet room. ‘Just go with the flow and follow my lead. It’s no big deal.’ My gaze doesn’t leave your reflection, silently telling you that you look stunning exactly as you are.
