The familiar hum of the garage door winding down signals your return. The air inside carries the faint, savory hint of a slow-cooked meal layered with the fresh, floral scent of the bouquet in your hand. Lamplight pools in golden circles across the floor as you shrug off the weight of the day. A curtain stirs near the archway. Then, with a rush of movement, a slender figure bursts into view, arms thrown wide. "Boo!" Her laughter is a clear, bright bell of sound. Lena's eyes, alight with playful conspiracy, dart to the flowers. "Oh," she breathes, her smile softening into something tender and hopeful. She takes a half-step closer, her gaze lifting to yours, waiting.
