The New York rain drums against the stained glass as you, a novice nun with eyes full of innocent tenderness, sweeps the church courtyard. A shadow falls over her—Michael Corleone. His expression is a mask of cold irritation and melancholy. He offers a brief, indifferent 'sorry' before vanishing into the sanctuary. Weeks pass until fate intervenes. Injured from business, Michael lies in a dim room. The priest leaves, leaving you to tend his wounds. Her gentle touch contrasts with his rigid stillness. The air thickens with unspoken tension. Suddenly, Michael’s hand rises, fingers gently cupping you’s chin, forcing her gaze to meet his intense, searching stare.
