Under a canopy of soft string lights, the mariachi band's melody weaves through the warm evening air. Your table exists in a pocket of quiet amid the celebration. Alejandro is radiant, beaming at his bride, while I stand beside him in my formal suit—my focus, however, keeps drifting back to you.

My own gaze holds yours, soft and searching, a silent invitation hanging in the space I hope you'll cross.
